Someone told us yesterday that,
during the Civil war, Colorado regi-
ment was supplied with bullets melt
ed from Gdlpin county lead ore of a
high percentage in the crude state,
just as it was extracted from the
ground. Last night, while putting a
few thoughts in writing, we uncon-
soious.y demonstrated the possibility
of utilizing Gilpin county lead ore in
the crude form for bullets or missiles
in warfare. A Thomas cat attempted
an assault on a Tabby cat in front of
the office, and, annoyed by the at
tendant noise, we grabbed a chunk of
solid lead ore, aimed at the Thorn
ass head, and let fly. 1t went true
of the mark. The impact was pow
erul and destructive. The cat was
estopped in his fiendish designs. He
thought he had been struck by a cam
non ball.

C. G. s. NOW CARRIES
AUDITORS ON TRAINS

A new ruling went into effect Aug
ust Is. on the c. S. railroad which
wiz make it very hard for conduc-
tors who are SO inclined, to knock
down fares.
The innovation is an auditor who
dressed in civilian clothes, will fire.
quent the trains, unknown to the con
ductors.
1t will be his privilege to demand
the conductors tickets at amy time
that he may see fit, in order to check
over the number of passengers with
the number of tickets collected.
This is the first time in its his
tory that the road has even carried
an auditor and the employees are
wondering what is the cause of the
change.
On many of the roads in the state.
an auditor is carried daily on the
passenger trains in addition to the
conductor. The duties Of the audi
tor are to collect all the tickets and
make an account Of them. When an
auditor Is carried the duties of the
conductor are narrowed down to hav-
ing charge of the train and looking
after the welfare Of the passengers.
But the auditor as introduced on the
G. e. S. win wear no uniform and his
coming and going will not be mark
ed by the other employees. BY do
ing this the officials OF the road be-
lleve they will be able to eliminate
some Of the grating which they be-
lieve has been practiced en- the road.

Shippers throughout the country
who have been the victims of the
exorbitant rates of the express COM
panies, read with great deal OF
pleasure of the action of the Inter
state Commerce Commission, order
dng sweeping reductions in rates, the
same to take effect the 18th of Oc-
tober. These reductions are from
10 to 60 per cent and in most in
stances are lower than parcel post
rates. The order of the commits sion.
SO the express companies claim, will
reduce their revenues 80 per cent.
No shipper will offer any objections
to this curtaLIment of the express
companies revenues. The compan-
les have robbed the shipper long
enough. Untn a short time ago, when
dlhey were required to label prepaid
articles, they charged ON both ends.
Their pro1tts are so large in ccm-
parison with the actual capital in
vested tha. reduction of so per
cent in revenues can tie made, and
the express companies will st.Ll be
receiving more than they ara entitled
to.

The time was when a waste bas-
ket i'm a newspaper office was re-
garded as about the most useless
piece OF furniture about the place.
Not 50 any more. Since politicians,
heads of state fairs, state exposi-
lions, national expositions, big bank
ing institutions shaping certain leg
islation, to say nothing of number
less societies. have established press
bureaus that daily flood the papers
with stuff they want inserted free,
the keen editorial sheers and the
foul smelling paste pets have given
way to the handy, ever ready recep-
tacle-the waste basket. Yes, indeed,
the waste basket has come to be
regarded as indispensable in any
we'll regulated newspaper office.

Reductions in parcel post rates be-
come effective on the 18th of this
month and the poundage lis also in
creased 20 20. This action on the
part Of the postal department will
be another severe jolt to the ex-
press companies, and again we say,
though the express companies meet
the parcel pest rates, the people
should patronize the government Par
ticularly should this be the practice
in Central City. The outfit doing
business here since the Weps Fargo
company left the field, Is the cheap
est and most grasping we have ever
had business with. A while ago, the
Chamber of Commerce wanted to send
some Of their advertising literature
to the Denver Chamber of Commerce
for distribution, and considering that
II was for purpose that would ul
ttmately benefit the COMMUNICATIVE
express company with the rest-the
express company was asked to car
rp the literature to Denver,s free of
charge. DO you suppose this stingy
avari,!ous outfit would grant this lit
tie favor? Not much. They were af-
ter the coin.

MEMBER COLORADO Editorial ASSOCIATION
THE NEWSPAPER JOB

Many people believe that a news
paper falls together without work or
concerted action or plan. Rev. Nc
Leod, a Presbyterian minister at Pas
adena, was of the opinion, and ask
ed to be allowed to edit an edition
of the Pasadena Star. The editor
gladly accepted the opportunity to
go fishing, and the minister took up
his duties in the newspaper office.
This is how he felt al. the end of
the task, which, it must be said, had
been done quite creditably.
''My time is almost up as / pen
this las. lire; my hand is almost
paralyzed; my brain is befuddled, ant
/ am free to confess that / am right
glad to vacate the holy spot. Such
rush and riot and disarray. Such a
tumble of potpourri; it strikes me
as the effort to bring order out of
chaos, and to do it lightning quick.
81 am reminded of the memorable
words. The earth was without form
and vcid, the darkness was upon the
waters Never shall l criticise news
paper men more. l shall pray for
them. They will have my hearts for

CARROTS

A correspondent from Tulip asks about Carrots. Carrots are mostly natives of the countries surrounding the Mediterranian sea. The common carrot is a bi- ennial plant, and is cultivated in all parts of Europe and some parts of Asia, as well as North America for the sake of it's roots. The root of the wild plant is slen- der, woody. and of a very strong flavor; that of the cultivated va riety is thicker, and more fleshly milder in it's flavor and qualities, generally red, but sometimes

hR. BRYAN'S STATEMENT IS SOUND
 PRINCIPLE IN THE PUBLIC SERVICE

Itis hard to separate and disas- sociate our obligations to the public from our personal or indi- vidual obligations, and many of us are inclined to regard our friends and punish our enemies when it comes to choosing men for the public service.
 Most people are more or less influenced in these matters by personal considerations. They feel inclined to favor those who have favored them, and to be- stow the emoluments of office up on the bestowers of office.
 A great deal has been said about Governors obligations to Mr. Bryan, the point being con- ceded that Governor w Is o n could not have been nominated without the cordial and active support of MT. Bryan and the de- mand being made, that for this reason, Governor Wilson should award the Nebra skan conspicu- ous place in the public service.
 Many of the newspapers take the position that President elect Wilson owes Mr. Bryan person. al debt which he sould pay. bring ing the latter into official honor and power. The St. Louis Re public says that as to Mir. Bryans tltness for the premiership or for the ranking ambassadorship, opinion may differ but neveruhe- less that paper urges that Wood row Wilson's debt to Bryan is the biggest debt possible in American politics. Proper ac- knowlegement of that debt ex- pected. Popular belief is that it will be paid.
 Tie Commoner, in speaking for MT. Bryan, takes the sound and unassailabe position that cabinet positions ought not to be regarded as currency with which to pay debts, and in filling them
The Nevada County picayune., 1913-01-31

future and not the past, should be looked to.
 The men selected by Wilson for the cabinent says the Com moner, should be selected not be- cause of personal service render ed to the party. For it says, the individual counts for little, the cause counts for much.
 Evidently MT. bryan resents the idea, often expressed, that he should De rewarded for the great service he has rendered the democratic party and the coun- try contending h a Governor Wilson should be governed by higher motive than gratitude in the selection of his official house. hold.
 Here is Mir. Bryan's view, as expressed by The Commoner:
 A great responsibility rests up- on him. and he will need the as- sistance of tke best and bravest for his work. He ought to feel free to select for each place the men best fitted for it: in no other way can he hope to measure up to the expectations of the public. He need lot he should not, con- sider any service that Mr. Bryan has rendered to him, or to the public. Mr. Bryan has been abundantly rewarded for all that he has done, and does not feel that the party, or any individual in the party owes him anything. If he ever holds any office, it ought to be given, whether by appointment or by election, with the view to the service that can be rendered in connection with the work yet to be done. not with the idea of rewarding him for anything that he.has done. And the rule which is here laid down for Mir, Bryan is the rule which he believes should be laid down for all. In other words, the well fare of the party and the welfare of the country, not the ambitions of men or the interests of indiyi- duals, should be considered.

orange or yellowish white. They are of various shapes and sizes. The early kinds are small and cultivated in gardens for table use, while the late and larger ones are grown in fields for fat tening cattle and hogs. The fact that they have been grown since the 16th century is evidence that they conform to the law of the survival of the fttest." an d must be worth while.

While this standard for the measurement and proper public services is somewhat higher than parties have been accustomed to, yet the believers in democratic simplicity. official honesty, san- ctity and usefulness will agree that this declaration of principle comports with an ideal represen- tative government, and that if Thomas Jefferson had been con- fronted with similar conditions he would have made similar declaration which is wise, pat riotic and unselfsh.
 No man has a clearer concept ion of official obligation to h e public than MT. Bryan. and no man has a greater capacity for stating concisely and correctly the relationship that should ex- ist between those who perform the functions of office and those who have been chosen for this performance Nashville Tennes- sean.
