FARMERS NEEDN'T WORRY.
Il am told that the sugar in
terests are threatening to cut the
price paid the farmers for their
beets. Do you think they will
do that?" / asked Senator John
Cross, oee of the prominent
farmers and substantial business
men of Northern Colorado. Don't
worry about the farmers, he
replied. They will take care of
themselves. If the factories cut
the price we won't raise beets.
We can and will raise other
crops. The sugar men know
that and while they may bluff
for public effect they will not cut
off their noses to spite their
faces"
An old friend, the manager of
one of Denver.s largest Depart

Legislatures control the destinies
of two-thirds Of the States. De

the wheels of industry continue

SITUATION AT HOME.
Here in Colorado the prophets
of evil have been particularly vo-
ciferous. They have assured the
people that tariff revision meant
industrial stagnation. Some of
the Sugar Trusts papers have
even predicted return of the
distressing times which followed
the panic Of '93.

Democracracy is to be held re-
sponsible for all the floods, the
pestilence. the crop failures and
other untoward events which
may mark its lease of power, it
is only fair to give it credit for
some of the good things which
come to the people during the

Colorado, and have had unusual
opportunities to observe condi-
