DENVER, March 5.--An alleged at
tempt of Republicans and machine
Democrats" to wrest control of the
house was defeated today when the
progressive Democrats jsecured the
postponement of a fina1 vote on the
Ammons county bill until Saturday.
Enemies of the measure tried to
force vote during tie absence OF
five progressives.
Advocates Of the bill claim that the
territory involved in the new county
has population of 4,50O persons who
are not represented by single county
officer.

President Taft wants this country
to adopt budget in order to provide
against shortages. This because the
late Democratic house was more ex-
travagant than any in history. Just
few days ago The Herald printed an
extract from Democratic congress
man calling for halt in expendi-
lures, that they exceeded anything the
Republicans ever attempted. Charg-
ing Taft with these expenditures to
apologize for the Shafroth board ex-
penditures shows the extremity of
some Democratic editors.

143D ANNIVERSARY OF
BOSTON MASSACRE

BOSTON, Mass, March 5.-One
hundred and forty-three years ago to-
night Captain Preston, commander Of
the British guard in Boston, gave
the command which caused so much
bloodshed and added another step to-
ward the Revolutionary war. The
Boston massacre claimed three of the
patriots who were defending their
homes and demanding their rights
against the onslarghts Of the British
troops who had made life anything but
pleasant during the period after the
repeal of the stamp act.
Resenting the insults to them by
the men and boys Of Boston, the Brit
ish troops protected themselves
against the charge Of the indignant
Boston men. When the smoke of tho
British guns cleared away there were
eleven men stretched on the ground
Of whom three we're killed and eight
wounded.
Although the demonstration Of the
Boston folk was but defensive move
It had great deal to do with the
Fastening Of the Revolutionary war
When several Boston lawyers, wht
were also staunch patriots, acted n
counsel for Captain Preston. who wa,
tried for murder, there was great ex
citsment. but Preston was acquittet
on the ground that he had done hi
duty - m officer.

Editor Herald:

Editor Herald:
| would like to know what has be-
come of the suit which the Durango
school board instituted against district
No. (Animas City, some eighteen
or twenty months ago, for non-pay-
ment of tuition for high school pu-
pills. Mr.. Pulliam, our attorney, has
tried in vain to get the case brought
10 a trial. We are ready and anxious
to have the matter legally settled so
our duty may be Enthusiastically defined.
The superintendent of the Durango
schools is making every effort to col
lect $3.50 monthly from the parents
every Animas City child attending
and $3.50 from the school district for
the Durango high school. We claim
the law provides that only total of
$3.50 can be collected. Not only would
our district be benefited by having
the case settled in the courts but ey-
cry district in La Plata county that
is confronted with the same problem.
AS custodians of the school funds we
desire to do exactly what is right.
both by the taxpayers and pupils Of
our district. If the superintendent of
the Durango schools will send our
district the names of those who have
not paid $3.50 per month tuition we
will send him warrant for the
amount, but we will not pay tuition in
excess of $3.50 unless so ordered
by the courts.

FIREWORKS DISPLAY
TAKES PLACE OF BALI

WASHINGTON d. G., March b.
Instead of an inaugural ball last night
the uniform climax ofs5Kaugurais since
James Madison's in 1909, abandoned
at President Wilson's own request--a
street carnival of half-million per-
sons, with fireworks on the Washing
ton monument grounds awaited the
holiday crowds. When the last of the
marchers had passed the president s
stand, and dusk approached, the street
illumination were turned on, trans
forming Pennsylvania avenue into a
veritable fairyland. Thousands of in
candescent lights, veri-colored, have
been strung in festoons from high
poles the entire length of the historic
thoroughfare, waiting the electric sig
nal to open mammoth Mardi Gas.
The "Court of Honor" was ablaze with
incandescent splendor.
Great electric searchlights were
placed to bathe the Washington monu-
ment, capitol and other buildings in
dazzling rays.
With the abolishment of the inaugu-
raj ball, because of President Wilson's
request for simplicity" in his inau-
gural, the center of attraction last
night was the display of fireworks on
the big elliptical track back of the
White house. Just $4,000 worth of
fireworks were displayed last night.
Set pieces attached to balloons, were
carried high into the air and dis
charged by electricity. "The Star
Spangled Banner"-in flames--floated
across the sky and was greeted by a
national salute. "Wilson and Mar
shall" was written in huge letters
against the black night.
The masterpiece of the display was
the luminous portraits of Wilson and
Marshall covering 1000 square feet.
Other features Of the fireworks dis
play was 1900 rocket bombs, 100
colored light, 500 batteries, Ii, 900 can
dies, 1000 bombs, so balloons, 80 aero
planes and thousands or other pyro-
technics.
Before the parade was finished yes
terday afternoon the crowds began
gathering on the Ellipse for the fire
works display, which was opened by a
national salute of 101 guns.
Washington's entire police force,
soldiers and sailors were detailed yes
terday to guard the crowds last night.
After the fireworks, which President
Wilson and his family viewed from
the rear porch Of the White house
their first night "at home"--the
crowds thronged Pennsylvania ave-
nue. for high carnival until midnight.
The avenue was converted into an i'm
mense "red way"-literally painting
the city red-by burning fires at short
distances along the street.
All large buildings on the avenue
were also strung with electric lights,
to form the biggest display ever seen
in Washington. All public buildings
were ablaze with lights.
In past years the fireworks display
was the popular" entertainment, dur
ing the progress Of the inaugural ball
at the pension office.
On the Union station plaza last
night were placed two large electric
set pieces, bearing the words "Wel-
come to Your Capital" and Wilson
and Marshall, March 4. 1918"

HUMANE SOCIETY

LATE OFFICER
Monument Will Mark Resting
Place of Remains of
Miss Dawson

A resolution providing for the cree

of the late Rosalie C. Dawson, for
four years special officer of the Ha-
wall Humane Society, was adopted at
a meeting of that organization in the
Young Hotel at ten o'clock this morn.
ing. The discussion revived memories
of the greatawork. which Miss Davi-
son had accomplished during her
life, and the members of the society
have united in securing funds to
erect the memorial.
By the vote of the society, Miss
Lucy Ward, who was assistant to
Miss Dawson: and John c. Anderson,
probation officer, were appointed to
act in the capacity as special off
GERS of the organization, their duties
to begin at once. For the past three
months Mr.. Anderson has been acting
as humane officer, and the report pre-
scented by him at the meeting proved
that he had entered into the work
with a marked degree of interest.
Besides the reading of the special
officers and the treasurer's reports.
and the passage of the resolution
with regard to the monument, very
little other business was done. The
report of the treasurer showed the or
ganization to be in excellent financial
condition. having, at the first of June.
all bills paid and. $1550.38 on hand.
The total disbursements since the
last meeting have been $764.50.
The report of Humane Officer An
derson showed that since the last
meeting seventeen cases pertaining to
dumb animals have been handled and
disposed of These cases dealt chiefly
with horses, that had been found by
the officer to be either overloaded,
sick or with broken limbs. Eleven
dogs, found by the officer to be af-
fIieted with mango, were ordered
disposed of.
Upon Information by Miss Lucy
Ward, Anderson investigated three
cases where several children were
involved. Cases pertaining to chill
dren are now. rapidly diminishing, as
these are being placed under the
jurisdiction of the juvenile court.
The meeting this morning was
sparsely attended. and it is to be
urged by the society that more
marked degree of cooperation be in
evidence on the part of the members.
