A busy session of the delegates of
the Denver labor unions was held in
the rooms of the Denver Trades and
Labor Assembly Sunday afternoon.
Aside from the usual business, many
legislative measures and resolutions
were read and discussed Chief
among them was the Moffat Tunnel
bill, which was read by one of the
delegates. In the discussion follow
ing it was stated that the bill made
no mention of the employment Of
Colorado labor In constructing the
tunnel. Objection was made in re-
gard to the unlimited power which
VIII be conferred on the three tun-
mel commissioners and also to the aD-
preparation of the city and county
funds in constructing the tunnel.
The Legislative committee, consisting
OF Frank A. Bryan, John Compton
ard T. Spacy. were instructed to con-
fer with the tunnel commissioners
and secure the introduction of such
amendments into the bill as suggest
ed by the assembly.
The question of employing prison.
ers in the maintenance and repair of
roads and streets was discussed. The

The Lesson Of Gettysburg.

The Gettysburg celebration carries
with it lesson in the efficiency of the
present-day army of the United States
which will not be lost. That between
10000 and 10000 men, many of them
of advanced years and practically all
of them for half century unused to
the hardships OF life in tents, should
have been cared for in this vast camp
with few casualties and practically no
loss of lives, is a tribute to the en-
ergy and resourcefulness of the reg
ular army officers and to the effective
organization of the War Department.
The Medical Corps of the army es-
pecially is to be congratulated. Con-
fronted by a tremendous task, it has
accomplished its great work of camp
sanitation and relief in a manner de-
serving the highest praise 1t is prob
ably true that these officers themselves
are astonished at the low mortality
during the encampment and that there
were far fewer deaths than had been
anticipated Scientific calculation had
prepared them for not less than 500 IA
talities. Instead, there were less than
a dozen; and this despite the fact that
oppressive heat made the famous bat
tleheld place of danger even to the
vigorous.
In part this pleasing outcome was
due to the iron strength of the veter-
ans themselves, whose constitutions
would seem to have been fortified
rather than undermined by their four
years of campaigning in the Cos; but
in no small measure it was the result
of the medical department officers of
the army. who helped to establish at
Gettysburg the largest military camp
seen on this continent since the civil
war. Their effectiveness may be
traced to the service during the ma
neuvers on the Texas border.

Business Men in Politics.

The trouble in the past has been tina:
the business men have not shown the
active interest in politics which il
was their duty to manifest.
In the first place, they have been
negligent in exercising the right OF
suffrage. A very large proportion OF
the nonvoting population of this coun-
try is composed of business men. They
were comparatively Indifferent to the
personnel of the aspirants for Office,
and did not attend either caucuses or
conventions. In States where nominal
tons are now made under primary
laws there is still much apathy among
the mercantile citizenship, although the
working classes are early at the polls.
Even in past Presidential campaigns ii
has been the most difficult thing in the
world to get business men actively in
terested in the contest. Once in a
while an organization was formed, but
it was largely perfunctory. Even now
business men rarely make political
speeches. They allow the politicians to
run the game, with an apparently abid-
ing faith in the goodness of some over
ruling Providence. Sometimes they
are brought up with a sharp turn,
finding themselves face TO face with
conditions they did not anticipate.
Realizing this fact, business men are
now going more deeply into. politics
than ever before. 1t is their only SAL
walton against radical legislation. This
is the reason why the Chamber of
Commerce of the United States is now
concerning itself in scrutinizing the
records OF men in Congress and in the
character Of the men who are to be
nominated in the future. The drift
of the commercial mind today is exact
ly opposite to the advice offered by
Vice President Marshall Instead of
less business in politics it is to have
a larger participation than ever. There
are evidences everywhere that the
commercial world proposes to assert
itself in the management of affairs.
Ten years ago there were hardly ten
business men in Congress. Today there
are over 100 active, experienced manu-
facturers or mercantile men serving as
Representatives, whose advent into pol
itics marks a new era.

FIND ROUGE POTS OF EGYPT.
TEAR Bottles" Used 10 Display
Grief Were Powder Puns.

FROM fhladeiphla Lttler.
The -tear bottles" which women Of
the Orient carried centuries ago reveal
the hypocrisy of the women. Several OF
these bottles are included in a collection
Of glassware which has been bought fol-
$1,000 for the University of Pennsylvania
museum. In ancient prints and histories
the women OF fashion of 1000 B. c. are
represented as carrying the tear bot
ties in which to give vent to their grief
on public occasions. 1t now developes
that when the woman raised one of the
bottles to her eyes she was just dabbing
powder over a red spot on her cheek.
Examination of the tear bottles In
the museum collection disclosed traces
of rouge, powder. paint. and cold cream
still sticking TO the bottom Of the glass.
In the collection are many cream pots
and oil jars for the toilet table wrought
In wonderful designs and colors. which

MOLASSES KILLS SEA FISH.

Water Of q San Domingo Port.
Prom the Boston Post
More than 10000 gallons of molasses
were recently pumped overheard at Ma
coris. according to officers of the British
bark Sunlight, which arrived recently
from tn. San Domingo port with 10000
gallons of molasses in bulk. The sailors
said that the great quantity Of molasses
who thrown overheard made the water
so thicF that the fish were unable to swim
in it and died by hundreds.
The square rigger was 10 days coming
up from Macoris. The officers said that
not enough vessels could be secured to
carry the molasses crop away from San
for this years crop II was necessary to
pump more than 10000 gallons of per-
fectly good molasses into the harbor.
The Sunlight was anchored in the har-

THE POLITICAL SITUATION

Vice President Marshall, in recent
address in Philadelphia, advised the
American business man to take his
business out of politics.
This is exactly what the business
man would like to do. Unfortunately,
he cannot. No matter what he does,
he finds politics hanging like mill
stone about his neck. No matter which
way he turns, he finds politics an OBJ
stacle in his path.
Take business out of politics! Nine
ty-nine per cent of the business men
in this country wish that they could
take politics out of business They
echo with fervent sympathy the wish
of James J. Hill that Congress would
adjourn for ten years. The trouble
is nowadays that nearly all the legis-
lation which Congress enacts vitality
affects some phase OF business. Take
the tariff bill, for instance. When the
Democratic party came into power
through a division in the Republican
ranks, its leaders Immediately under
took TO revise the tariff along the
lines of their own views, even though
the country had not, by majority
vote, Endorsed tariff for revenue only.
1t was the business man, however. who
suffered by the result OF the election.
Upon him fell the burden of long
and anxious period of waiting until
the schedules were rearranged, with
the burden of adjusting himself to new
and unexpected conditions yet to be
borne No wonder that business men
knocked impatiently at the doors of
the Ways and Means Committee room
and besieged their members of Con-
gress. The figures which the tariff bill
finally contained meant everything to
them.

Victor Emmanuel and the Kaiser.

The visit of the King of Italy to thu
German Emperor at Kiel was pruden,
and desirable. While the Emperor
does not need to assure his guest that
the recent meeting with the Gar and
King George did not involve any re-
taxation of Germany's attitude in the
Triple Alliance, he may wish to have
fresh assurance of Italy to sustain
her part in the old Dreibund compact
with Germany and Austria, which is
not popular in that country.
Italy has to maintain an army and
navy more costly than the forces
that would suffice for her own needs,
in order that she may be the ally of
the two empires which wish to have
her with them to preserve the "po-
litical equilibrium" of Europe-the
Triple Entente ENGLAND, France. and
Russia) being in the other scale.
While it. would be wise for Italy to
spend less on battleships for the sake
of the partnership with Germany and
Austria. it will be but right of the
King at this time to acknowledge the
help that has been received from them in
support of Italys interest in the coast
opposite her own on the Adriatic Al
bania at some points is not fifty miles
from Italy. Among the inhabitants of
the Albanian shore are thousands of
Italians and among inhabitants of the
Italian shore are thousands of Al
banians. Therefore, next to the Al
banians in Albania, the Italian govern
ment has the right to be heard on the
question of the future of that coun-
try. Austria has secondary interest,
inasmuch as her own seaboard is di-
vided from that of Albania by no more
than the strip that belongs to Mon,ene-
gro. But Italy's demand for Albanian
independence, though backed by Aus
tria, might not have been successful
without the support of Germany.
There has been much satisfaction in
the appearance of the members of the
Albanian government at Rome, TAX
ing counsel with Italian statesmen as
TO the best form to be given to an
Albanian constitution, and there is
popular approval Of the request, ad-
dressed to Essad Pasha, to come out
of his self exile at Tirana and visit
Rome. that he may be consulted in re-
gard to the government of his country.
The King OF Italy has the appreciation
of a larger number of his people than
usual in expressing to the German EN-
peror sense of the advantages de-
rived from participation in the Triple
Alliance which, strangely enough, has
been strengthened by the Balkan trou-
bles that threatened the peace of Eu-
rope.

"Mcdieval Silhouettes.,


Germany is big country. Moreover

there are also the most ultra modern

plain of northern Germany: the ancient
Saxons, still clinging to former super

towns and in the atmosphere of legend
and romance that fingers yet around
the regions of the Harz: the gay Wur

lagos that still preserve in wall and

terraced vineyards lead from the waters
edge up steep hillsides to ruined castles
