WAGCING OF WOMAN'S
TONGUE
Volubility Of Center Sex Has
Been Criticised in All Ages
From the New York Mail.

From the New York Mail.
It was in ireland that the witty say
ing originated, "Silence is q fine jewel
for woman, but it is little worn."
This is one ofthe mildest of the innu-
endoes with which woman's tonguehas
been visited among all Nations. In
fact, one legend has it that Eve was
created dumb, but that Adam "an as
pen leaf from the Devil he gat," and
placing this beneath her palate she
forthwith spoke and has been talking
ever since.
The Chinese say: ga woman's sword
Is her tongue, and she does not let it
rust," while the Hindoos have prov
erb, "For talk I'm best, for work my
elder brother-in-law's WIFE" The old
English adage has it: ga woman's
strength is in her tongue"
The prejudice against too much talk
ing has been mirrored in many prov
cribs, for even the African savages say
''If a woman speaks two words, take
one and leave the other,'' while in the
Orient, where woman is held in little
esteem, they say, ga woman's talk
heat from grass" which signifies that
there is little in it.
Even the artists of the olden time
had to make fun of woman's tongue
though they could not paint exquisite
beauty without her form. One of the
ancient British inns had sign pictur-
ing "'rhe Good Woman" and while
originally this referred to a saint who
had lost her head through her persecn-
tors, and she was therefore painted
headless, in later times the sign was
interpreted as ''The Silent Woman
and popularly it was held that the only
silent woman was the one without u
head.
The Germans have quaint saying:
"When woman has no answer the
sea is empty of water.n
The French say: Foxes are all tail
and women are all tongue" 1t was u
current Alsatian proverb; 'sIf you
would make apair of good shoes, take
for the sole a womans' tongue-it
never wears out"

Washington Letter,
By Edward Keating,

From Colorado.

Arizona is the peculiar pet OF

the soil and climate are peculiarly
adapted to the growth OF sugar
heets and several sugar factories
are in operation.

I saw q letter from a Colorado
business man the other day in
which he told of the efforts of
certain gentlemen to secure
cheaper sugar for the people of
the State. These men were anx-
ious to establish extensive pack
ing and preserving plants in
Denver and on the Western
Slope, but they soon discovered
that they could not do business
unless they secured cheaper sug-
ar. They found that England.
importing all it's Sugar and all its
fruit, had a virtual monopoly on
the preserving industry. They
also learned that they could buy
Colorado made sugar in New York
for 55 cents less than in Denver
and Grand Junction.
They pleaded that the people
of Colorado might be given sug-
ar at as low a price as the people
of New York.
Now that sounds like a reason
able request, doesn't it? The
representatives of the Sugar
Trust even refused to consider it.
Nature intended that Colorado
should be a great fruit growing
and sugar raising State. But
our fruit is permitted to perish
in our orchards because the rail
roads cannot or will not carry it
to market, and the Sugar Trust
will not sell us sugar at a price
which will enable us to preserve
it.
Eastern Colorado times. (Cheyenne Wells, Colo.) 1912-1913, 1913-05-02

The Washington papers calmly
arnonnce that the Sugar inter-
ests have placed $780, 0W at the
disposal Of the Washington sugar
lobby for the purpose of prevent
ing the removal of the tariff on
sugar.
How this vast sum is to pe
spent is left to the readers
imagination. This sugar lobby
is the most offensive of the many
lobbies maintained in this city.
I do not pretend that it is any
more corrupt, but its methods
are almost unbelievably brazen.
, These paid Agents of the Su-
gar Trust seem to think that they
own certain Senators, particular
ly those from the intermountaln
West, and they are shaken with a
righteous indignation when their
title is questioned.

But that is not all. In the
Western States, the Trust charges
us freight from the seaboard. al
though the sugar is made at our
doorsteps.
In colorado this mythical
freight charge is SIS cents a hum
dred and this makes our per cap
ita contribution to the Trust 81. Is
Our population is 100000 and
our annual tax for the support of
the Trust is therefore 81, 400, 600.
This is more than the people
of Colorado pay in direct taxes
for the maintenance of their
State government.
But we are comparatively for

to us. See what it does to Idaho

cries in those States for As cents
a hundred more than it does in
Denver and 81, 90 a hundred more
than it does in NeY York. So
Idaho and Montana's per capita
contribution is $2.20.
Idaho has a population of $685.
600 and its total annual contribu-
ton to the Trust is $715.0OO.
Montana has a population of
376, 900 and its total annual con-
tribution to the Trust is $8N, 200.

sugar Scneuule VIII oS
ed by the votes of the two Sem
ators from Colorado. They have
refrained from definite public
declaration of their position, and
it is no exaggeration to say that
official Washington is more keen
" interested in their views than
in the views of any other two
men in the upper House.
Of course, the Sugar Trust IS
subjecting them to every con-
ceivable pressure. and under the
circumstances l believe it is only
right and proper that the folks
at home should make their wishes
known. Write letters setting
forth your views, prepare petl-
tions and secure signatures OF
your friends and neighbors, and,
if necessary call public meetings
and adopt resolutions clearly
stating the position of the PLAIN
people of Colorado.
DOES THE SUGAR TRUST OWN
COLORADO? That's the issue,
and let's settle it, once for all.
While we are on this subject OF
sugar, I want to give you some
figures showing what the tariff
costs the sugar consumers OF this
country.
Data gathered by our consular
agents show conclusively that we
pay from l IL to2 cents a
pound more for granulated sug-
ar than the people of Great Brit
ain, who do not produce a pound
Of sugar.
Each man, woman and child in
this country consumes 8O pounds

CHANGES MADE IN
STATE GAME LAWS
Residents Of State Must Pay
Fishing License; Deer Season
Closed Five Years.

Resident and nonresident hunting IL
censes are required and seven import
ant changes are made in the game laws
of Colorado by the amendments en-
acted by the Nineteenth General as
sembly and signed by the governor.
These amendments become operative re
ninety days after the adjournment OF
the legislature, or July 10. except
that persons having hunting or fish
ing licenses for 1913 may use them
without further license.
Under the old laws residents OF the
state needed no license to fish, but were
compelled to have license for hunt
ing, the fee being 81. The new law
provides for a resident combination
hunting and fishing license, fee 81.
Nonresident licenses under the old
law included combination fishing
and hunting license, s.; fishing
license, 81; bird hunting license,
good only in the county in which is
sued, IS.
Under the new law general hunt
ing license costs $40 and is good for
both bird and game hunting, and a
fishing license costs 81, women being
exempt from being licensed to fish, as
are boys under 16 years of age.
Instead of making specific minimum
fines for violations Of the law, as In
the old law, the amendments provide
fines of 500 to $500 or Imprisonment
in county Jail for not more than six
months, or both fine and imprison-
ment, for dynamiting or using other
explosives or poisoning or stupefying
substances in lakes or streams, or for
killing buffalo, elk, deer, mountain
sheep or antelope. Other violations,
such as seining, trapping, hunting
game with dogs, hunting or fishing
without a license: ETC., are punishable
by q fine of $25 to $3.50, or imprison-
ment for not less than ten days nor
more than three months, or both fine
and imDrisoument.
