PARTISAN POLITICS AND BUSI.
NESS POLITICS.,

(From the Denver Republican,.
A crisis is upon Colorado. If the
Democratic scheme in congress prevails
this state may as well put up its shutters
for time; its princical industries will
be manned if not entirely obliterated.
/ The Denver Chamber of Commerce,
as the leading business body in the
chief city of the state. should have
acted and at once. firmly, cohesively
and to some purpose 1t was this body 8
duty to have made this political assault
from Washingt ton a matter at life and
death.
Instead, the chamber did nothing,
had an attack of blue funk and retired
to its corner, leaving the stage to the
Keatings and Shafro.hs, the Patter-
sons, Thomases and Adams, the Hos
mers, Gabriels, and the streets.
What does 1t matter to these Demo-
cratic politicians what may happen to
Colorado so long as they can secure
poll ical office and get their feet in the
public trough? A prosperous Colorado
with them in the shade would be no
Colorado at all; when Colorado is in the
slough of despond they are in the sew
enth heaven of delight. Discomfort is
as breath to the nostrils of professional
politicians and sgitators.
To the business interests of this city
and of the state the matter must be
viewed in another light.
With Co'orado's mining reduced to
one metal. with it's sugar factories
closed and other industries threatened
where does Denver expect to find it.
self?
Of course the tariff issue is politics,
partisan. narrow politics. The Demo-
cratic party IS not assailing Colorado's
products for fun; and. certainly, the
party cannot be doing this to get even
politically, because Colorado, unfor-
tunately, has been in the Democratic
column for four years. 1t is business
politics with the Democratic party,
which expects to win a national victory
along the policy it has been pursuing
in regard to tariff revision
But is the interest of the Democratic
party in state and nation to be placed
above the welfare of this common
we 18th?
The chandler of commerce seema to
think so from its action of last Friday.
1t is more interested in the future of
Eddie Heating and John Shafroth than
in the maintenance of the states in.

PROF. II. $. HERRICK MAY

Well Known Horticulturist Receives
F1attering Offer From East.

In charge of expert work in Mesa
and adjoining counties from the
state agricultural college. may leave
Grand valley to accept a renumera-
tive offer from the university of
West Virginia.
The offer was received a week
ago and Mr.. Herrick at once notified
President Charles A. Lory of the
agricultural college. The university
which is located at Morgantown, w.
Va. offers Mr.. Herrick the position
of assistant horticulturist at a salary
great deal higher than ha is at
present receiving and II seems almost
impossible that any offer can be
made that will justify his remaining
in the valley. Nevertheless. MT.
Herrick has not as yet received the
preferred place.
Mr.. Lory came from Fort Collfns
yesterday to discuss the matter with
Mr. Herrick. While here he talked
the matter over with Messrs r. f.
Turpin, Wendell p Ella and Coy e

the Teller school. After confer

him again after discussing the mat

Fort Collins.
President Lory stated last even
ing that he had no idea whether Mr.
Herrick can be retained He said
his trip here was to see IL 1t were
possible to keep him, or II that were
out of the question. to see what ar
rangement could be made to take
care of this section with trained
man. Mr.. Herrick is one OF the most
able men stationed in Colorado and
there is general regret at the pos
sibility of losing him. Mr.. Lory
said that the people OF this section
might rest assured that everything
possible would be done to keep him.
for his services will be invaluable to
the orchardists offhe West slope.
Prof. Herrick states that he will
not leave until hearing further from
President Lory. II would like to
stay" he said. but this offer is one
that | can't honestly turn down"
This section has suffered greatly
in the past year or two by the re-
moval of It's expert hortiulturist and
entomologists to other cities. Prof.

decides to accept the offer. will
leave vacancy that Will be hard to

have the entire burden OF expert
work on his shoulders, when Mt the

in March. when a dividend will be
declared.
The sale was conducted in a man
ner that was highly satisfactory tc
he stockholders. who We're present
in the bankruptcy. This was con
Exclusively evidenced when the un-
usual procedure of applauding in a
court room was noticed after Ref
cree Trimble had overruled an OBJ
lection and sustained the sale of the
stores. The reason that the stores
were disposed of separately was so
that a larger sum could be realized.
1t was considered that if the entire
lot was disposed of at single offer
ing there might only be couple of
bidders and with the lack OF com
petition the. stock would have to go
al a great sacrifice. When the ref
cree overruled an objection to the
procedure and declared that the
sale was 20. k, many OF the
stockholders present applauded bois-
terously.
Later, at a date not yet decided
upon, the other assets of the IN
ion Trading company will be dispos-
ed of. The sale Saturday consist
ed merely of the stocks in the stores
and the next one will appertain to

be received the stockholders as well

nicely.

WHY WOMEN GO TO PRISON
Most Of Them Err Through IdIeness,
un"ise Marriages, Ignorance, Youth
and F-iendiiness.

The causes that bring women to
prison are seldom OF personal or even
OF direct moral Significance. Women
seldom use their wits to break the law,
nor do most OF their crimes demand
quick intelligence They are In the
main the result Of lack OF training
In trades. inconsidered marriages, ig
general unguided condition OF girls:
unemployment. low wages. over
crowding In tenements, nervous ten
sion. and the high-pressure life OF the
average female factory employe.
These and other like causes produce
the so-called artificial offenses. such
as inebriety. unruliness and minor
breaches Of the law which are most
ly the result Of overstraip. IL has oft
en- been said that the barometer OF
and this is particularly true as re.
CARDS the crimes OF women. The thou
sands of women factory workers In
every manufacturing city are never
more than a few days from actual
want. Given period OF oyerproduc-
ton or depression In trade, and the
women's prisons fill with these de-
spairing, idle workers. In New Eng.

is decided slump in the prison pop
