Women and WAITING.

1t sometimes seems to me that this
is an anguish in which we live and of
which men know nothing. During the
course of a long life every woman
passes so many hours of still agony,
when she must fold her hands and
smile and wait. We cannot 60 out
seeking the beloved, but must sit and
wait until he comes. When you have
had misunderstanding it is not yours
to run generously forward; you can't
clap your hat on your head and say,
Here, I'll make an end to this; I'll
go and find her" No; you must sit
waiting for the sound of his footsteps
coming toward you; wait until your
whole soul is tense, wait until each
sound is part of his hope deferred. All
women know this pain, and when our
time of waiting for a sweetheart is
over the sons We love go out In the
world, and again we must sit still and
wait for news of the traveller. We sit
and walt for our children to be born,
through the long months, with the
black certainty of the birth that may
be death staring US in the face

en- and most of all for the impatient

bound townwards on a mission for his
new employer. Where the soft rutty
road turned, light automobile swift
ly curved into view, struck depres-

Beneath it was the driver, sickly

Once he screamed. Roy darted for

From beneath the car gone turtle

While browsing about the Con-
gressional Library the other day
/ encountered what l considered
one of the most remarkable doc
uments ever printed in connect
ion with the attempt to regulate
trusts in this country. It was a
copy of the testimony of Henry
O. Havemeyer before the Con-
gressional Committee appointed
in 1899, to inquire into trusts
and industrial combinations.
Our own John c. Bell of Mont
rose, then a Congressman and
now a member of Colorado's
Court of Appeals was a member
of the commission, and he part
ticipated IN the cross-examina-
ton of the famous witness.
Havemeyer was u ruthless
giant. With amazing frankness
he told the committee how he
formed the Sugar Trust, crushed
out its rivals and believed as a
business proposition it is right to
get out of business all you possi-
bly, CAM.
Then he submitted his views
on the tariff of which he readily
admitted he was one of the chief
beneficiaries. In my judgme mt
a more stinging Indictment of
this system of legalized robbery
has never been formulated by a
public man.
l submit a few extracts as they
are of peculiar interest at this
time when Congress is about to
convene in extra session to for
mulate a new tariff bill. Rem
ember these are not the views Of

his attention to Chinese affairs
and quietly fathomed the schemes
of Dollar Diplomacy. He con-
suited both the accredited repre-
sentatives of the Chinese repub-
lie and, going on the theory that
the men who could overthrow
the last of the Manchu emperors
probably knew something about
the needs of their country, dealt
dollar Diplomacy" its death
blow.
The net result is that the coun-
try has cut away from all alliance
with the Money Trust and the
land grabbing European powers
and has set out on a course
which will win the friendship
and probably the lions share of
the trade, of the most populous
nation in the world.
That is only good American
doctrine but it is sound business
and diplomatic sense. It is the
sort of thing that makes one
proud of being a citizen of the
United States.

Washington Letter.
BY Edward Keating,
Congressman-at-Large
From Colorado


Why shouldn't q Congress
man especially when that Con-
gressman is also a newspaperman
and the first of his tribe to be
chosen by the people of Colorado
to represent them in the national
Congress; make a report to his
constituents just as any other
employe gives an accounting OF
his stewardship to his employer?
There are a lot of mighty in
teresting things down here in the
Capitol of this glorious republic
of ours, which SO per cent of the
people know nothing; scores OF
petty graft and some great big
extravagances; giants serving
their country for a pittance and
the pure love of the work, and
pigmies strutting through a few
hours of temporary authority; pa
triots and politicians rubbing ell
bows and being constantly mis-
taking one for the other. In a
word, the great American drama
is being acted here on q stage
worthy of the worlds most histri-
onic event.
And as Congressman from the
imperial Commonwealth of Colo,
l am given a parquet seat, per-
mitted to meet a few of the stars.
and occasionally, just occasionly.
mind you-treated to a peep be-
hind the scenes.
That is a situation calculated
tom AXE oae forget that he is
Congressman and to remember
that he is a newspaperman with
an eye trained to see and a mind
accustomed to recording what
the eye has observed. All Of
which quite naturally leads to
the question with which l intro
duce this article-Why shouldn't a
Congressman make a report to
his constituents? and to what ]
consider the only logical answer,
He should.
Having disposed of the main
proposition, we are confronted.
with the question of the medium
which Congressman should
utilize in order to place his re-
port before his constituents, At
firs4 / turned quite naturally to
the big city dailies, having been
connected with them all my life,
but sober second thought con-
vinced me that the country press
daily and weekly reached the
people in a more intimate and
convincing fashion than did their
big brothers of the metropolis!
So appealed to this paper,
<sfnd to one or two others in each
country in the State, to print my
report in full each week and the
fact that you are reading this
article is best evidence of the
kindly response / received.
There is a democrat in the
White House. To my mind only
Eastern Colorado times., 1913-04-04

The Colorado delegation has
held several conferences and no
serious division of sentiment has
developed. We have been fairly
deluged with letters and petitions
concerning post Office and other
federal places and our disposition
is to give every applicant a
chance to be heard. The ambi-
ton to serve ones country in
official position is an honorable
one. and am quite frank to adj
nit that Ibelieve Colorado Dem
ocrats are entitled to their share
of the plums.
The recommendation of Colo
radios Congressman will control
the appointment of the postmas-
ters, and the other federal posi-
tions within the state will go to
the Senator'S. OF course. there
is no disposition to interfere with
federal officials who are under
civil service.
