Seldom, II ever, within my mem
ory has great State been subjected
to more Misrepresentation or been
worse maligned than has the State OF
Colorado during the past six months.
1t has been held up to the Nation
and the world as the lawless abode
of anarchy, peopled only by grasping
and wholly unprincipled corporations
8 and their rebellious slaves, partially
i held in check by the officers of the
: law until recently. when the State
treasury became bankrupt and utter
riot, disorder. and insurrection held
sway.
THE yellow press of my State,
ably seconded by journals of like
character elsewhere, have, from
time to time. delused this country
with such flood of sensational stor-
=. les as to hold the interest and. in
some degree, blind the judgment and
good sense OF the general public.
Well meaning but emotional women
have become hystericaI, and. largely

have carried conviction by their re-
cital OF industrial wrongs which
they have been told existed. The

Away from, homo than where he un-
fortunately belongs, oblivious to the
interests and good name of the peo-
pie Of the State which for too long a
time has charitably afforded him n
livelihood, has swept across the
country with troop of vaudeville
artists with the apparent purpose of
adding luster to his peculiar fame by
spreading denunciation and false
hood where 1t would best attract at
tention. And behind all this press
bureau ana these itincrant vendors
OF libel, slander. eXaggeration. and
positive falsehood can be seen the
scheming. cunning. well-paid officers
and salaried agents of mono7olistic
labor union.

nor otherwise different from those
of any other State. The chief eXecu-
tive of my State. while not prize
winner for wisdom and courage, is a
sincere and honest man. The Ma

condemned by labor leaders and
their sympathizcrs. not because of
what 1t did. but because 1t stood for

The Sterculias is a genus largely rep resented in Queensland and widely dis tributed To it belongs the bottle tree of the west of Queensland. Blacks eat the seeds of one of the species of the coast. and in the Philippines those of apparently closely allied species are considered wholesome when roast ed or boiled, though eaten in large quantities. The tree belongs to a good family, being related to the Theobroma flood of the gods). which supplies the world with cocoa and chocolate. When the fruit splits open 1t is a brilliant scarlet with an orange tinted interior.

In the large cutting plants limestone is handled like so much wood and is cut by circular saws, smoothed by planes and bored into with much the same sort of tools as are used by woodworkers.

A Woman Practitioner,

It will be surprise to most people to learn that there has actually been a woman executioner in this country. In olden times few cared to undertake the office of executioner, and occasionally death sentences were respited on con- dition that the criminal should perform this office. A case of this sort occurred in precautionary days, when a wo- man was sentenced to death for mur- der she had committed in Virginia. The death sentence was respited on her offering to become public execu- tioner, and, known as Lady Betty. she performed those duties for many years. She officiated on the scaffold without any mask or disguise and logged crim- inals through the streets with vigor.
