Monroe doctrine was protest against
imperial institutions-a declaration
that the United States would defend
the cause Of free government. of popI-

Western hemisphere. And now there
are Americans favoring a war of con-
quest and trying to make the army

the Mexican situation, but he has not
made the fundamental mistake of

To war OF conquest. American po-

THE COLORADO LABOR WAR.

Speaking Of the labor war in tn,
Colorado coal fields the Detroit News.
Tribune says:
The issue is fundamentally the
same as that which caused a con-
tinuouS struggle i'm Michigan from
July, 1913, to April, 1914. 1t is the
question whether miners shall be
permitted to organize.
The coal mines which are the
scene of the warfare in Colorado
are Rockefeller property. II was
John ID. Rockefeller, Jr, who told
a congressional committee that his
corporations will sacrifice all their
investments in Colorado before
they viii concede To the miners the
rights of uniunism."
The News-Tribune only half states
the case. 1t is true that the principle
involved in the Colorado struggle is the
same as that which prolonged the
copper country strike, but the News
Tribune ignores the very vital fact
that in Colorado a small minority, de-
union recognition, seeks to
dictate which also vas true of the
Michigan strike. The great majority
Of the workers, ninety per cent Of

DYNAMITE PLOT SCAReS HILLTOP
One of Forty-Eisht Sticks Explodes Un-
der Floor of Saloon

Battle Mountain, Nevada, Feb. 10.
because only one out of 48 sticks
of dynamite placed under the floor of
Nelson's saloon, at Hilltop, exploded
at midnight Monday, score of pa
irons escaped with their lives. The
stick that did explode shattered the
windows and sent every one in panic
outside. The other sticks were
frozen and were not affected by the
shock from the one stick which was
provided with cap and fuse.
Authorities are here to-day work
ing on what they declare to be a das-
tardly plot to get revenge on one
man. The district attorney is here
from Austin investigating.
Battle Mountain is filled with law
yers owing to trespass cases over
mining contentious in Copper Can
yon. The Big Four Company of
Rochester is the principal prosecutor.
Further placer discoveries are in
creasing the excitement. A severe
snowstorm is in progress.

HORSES FROZEN IN THE ICE
Famished Beasts Al Washoe Lake Eat
Names From Each Others Necks

An unusual occurrence referred
to in these columns last week of four
horses being frozen in the ice at Wa
shoe lake caused much comment and
we learn further that the ice sur
rounding the unfortunate beasts was
from four to six inches thick. The
rescuing party was obliged to cut a
channel through the tules from the
shore and chop the ice away from
the beasts. One of the animals was led
out, but the others fell down as they
started to walk and were dragged
out. Two of the horses died inn
mediately and the third is now being
treated, but with little hopes of saw
ing it. 1t is stated that when the
animals had eaten the tules within
reach they chewed the names off
each other down to the flesh, in eff
forts to appease their hunger. That
the horses should have been turned
out during the terrible storms of two
weeks ago is beyond understanding.

BELIEVES H0BS0N SHOULD
LOSE PAY FOR ABSENCE

A mild furry among the members
of the House followed the filing of a
formal demand the other day by w.
II. Parker of Birmingham, Alabama,
that Representative Richmond Pear
son Hobson be denied his salary as a
Congressman for the days he has
been absent from his seat while cam
paigning for the Senate against Ma
jority Leader Underwood.
Parker in an affidavit alleged that
Representative Hobson was absent
from January 10 to January 81, and
protested against the payment of
the salary due him for that time.
The protest was filed with Sergeant
alarms Gordon and all of the legal
talent about the office is at work to
find out the law on the subject They
have discovered a long forgotten
law, passed in 1858, and still on the
statute books, providing:
"The Secretary of the Senate and
the Sergeant-at-Arms of the House,
respectfully, shall deduct from the
monthly payments of each member
or delegate the amount of salary for
each day that he has been absent
from the Senate and House, respect
lively, unless such member or dele
gate assign as reason for such alb
sence the sickness of himself or some
member of his family"
Cloakrooms and corridors about
the Senate chamber resounded with
arguments among members who
would be much disturbed by gener-
al application of the law.

BUSTLES ARE COMING BACK
Ripples and Ruffles Instead of Old
Fashioned Tie-On Varieties

Chicago, Feb. 10.---Bustles are go
ing to be popular again this year
among the women of fashion, accord
ing to designers who are exhibiting
at a style show opened last night un-
der the auspices of the Chicago Gar
ment Manufacturers Association.
This years bustles, however, are not
the old-fashioned, tie-on, hair-stuffed
variety. They are part of the dress
es and are made of ripples and ruff
fles. The designers say they are
bustles, nevertheless.
"Trouser" dresses, showing the
new tango skirts and the latest fads
in bloomer effects, were exhibited
to-day. Minaret effects are coming
in and tunic effects will be popular
this year, the designers say. The
suits are nearly all open and show
the waist beneath.

.eLKO SHEEP FACING STARVATION
Ice Forming Over Deep SHOWS Making
II Impossible For Animals To Get Food

One hundred and fifty thousand
sheep are in danger of starving to
death in Elko County, according to
Assessor Will Weathers, of that
county, who arrived in Reno Monday
evening, says the Gazette.
The sheep bands in danger of ex-
termination are in the Shafter dis
trict. desert country in the extreme
western part of the county.
Heavy SHOWS covered the ground
several weeks ago and were followed
by mild thaws. The subsequent cod
weather froze the snow and an ice
covering is now the result. The sheep
are unable to break through the coat
of ice and are without feed, except
occasional patches of brush, which
are far from sufficient for sustaining
the herds.
The only hope for the sheepmen is
a thaw, which will permit the ami
mails to dig through the snow to the
feed underneath. Weathers stated
last night that many of the sheep
were becoming sorefooted, on ac-
count of travelling over the ice, and
that nearly all were suffering from
sore mouths, caused by Intellectual
attempts to burrow through the ice
coating. Unless thaw sets in with
in the next few days heavy loss will
result. Owing to having sore feet
it is impossible to drive the herds
any great distance and it is case of
wait for mild weather.
