telegram by Fl. H. Tammen of the
Denver Post to the register of the
state land board, Volney T. Hoggatt,
who is Willing away some of the
states time playing golf at Hot
Springs.
Hoggatt received telegram a few
days ago ostensibly signed by Cover
nor Carlson, in which the governor
Iexpressed the hope that his differ
ences with Tammen would not pre-
vent Hoggatt from accepting once
more the office of register of the land
board. Hoggatt promptly replied to
the governor saying he would be
pleased to accept a reappointment.
Thus, the governor learned for the first
time that his name had been signed to
the telegram. An investigation prov
ed that it was the work Of Tammen,
for the original had pencil memor-
andum, 80. X, Tammen," upon it.
Tammen now processes to say that it
was all joke, but it may not prove a
joke after all, inasmuch US there is a
heavy penalty and possible imprison-
ment in the penitentiary for sending
such falst kilograms.
The whole transaction shows how
utterly INSCRIPTIONS the Post and its
proprietors are and how little real
regard they have for the governor, or
his high office, to thus trifle and tam
per with his name and the authority
of his office. 1t is another evidence Of
the fact that the Post was merely US
ing the governor under the pretense
of friendship to endeavor to carry out
any selfish purposes which that pa
per may have had in view. The more
definitely the governor separates him
self and keeps apart from the Denver
Post and its proprietors, the more GER
tain he is to win the friendship and
esteem Of the whole people Of Colo
rado.-Colorado Springs Telegraph.

In Defense Of Colorado
chancellor Buchtel, former governor
of Colorado, in Zion's Herald.
Boston, Mass.)

Prof. Harry F. Ward finds pleasure
in misrepresenting Colorado, whenso-
ever he can do so, in all his specious
pleas for the socialistic state. In
Zion's Herald of Feb. II, he gives a
characteristic appreciative word of
the l. w. w. by saying, "They are
performing a service to society" Then
he gives a characteristic fling at Col
orado by saying, Its leader and its
policies came out Of that labor strug-
gle in Colorado where the agents Of
capital consigned the Constitution to
hell and overruled the courts by
force"
have known Colorado at first hand
for thirty years, and wish to remark
that this misrepresentation Of our
life here is unworthy Of man who
calls himself a man Of truth. At the
request of men Of all political vews,
l went into every part Of Colorado
some few years ago to defend the
right of every American citizen TO his
life and his liberty to work where
and when and for whom he likes,
without being intimidated and finally
shot to death by self-appointed guar
dians CD of working men. The only
people in these parts who have been
sending the Constitution to hell are
the very men whom Professor Ward
defends as performing a service to
society" The Western Federation of
Miners and the United Mine Workers
have made a record here in many
instances that is precisely like the
record which the l. w. w. is making
now. The confessions of Harry Or
chard brought out the fact that Col
orado has always been infested by
anarchists from everywhere who have
done their level best to embarrass men
in the ordinary pursuits of society.
Professor Seligman of Columbia
University wrote an article in criti-
cism of Colorado, on Newspaper Mis-
representation of the State" Suisse
auently he came out and looked the
facts in the face. He saw many peo-
pie, meeting some Of the most prom
inent coal operators, conversing with
Governor Ammons, personally in
specting some of the mines, and con-
versing with both miners and the
mine superintendent Among other
people he saw Mr.. William S. Tiff,
who gave the beautiful Tiff hall for
the work of the Tiff School of The

Pueblo Man Thinks Valley VIII Be
come Great Dairy Country

C. w. Crews of Pueblo, can only
stay in his city and store so long at
a time. Then the safety valve lets
loose and he hits the trail for Fowler
and his ranch. Mr.. Crews has as fine
a herd of Holstein thoroughbreds as
can be found in this part of the coun-
try. He was down Tuesday to see
them, and said to a Fowler Tribune
news gatherer:
81 believe / will see the day when
this Arkansas valley Of Colorado will
be the best dairy country west of the
Mississippi. We have everything in
our favor-climate, sunshine, and the
fact that we grow our own alfalfa
right at home. l understand that
2,200 additional cows have been
bought by the Lamar farmers during
the past year. The valley farmers
are coming to realize more every
month the great advantages to be de-
rived from dairy farming over grain
farming. The greatest mortgage
litter in the Arkansas valley is the

What War Has Cost

War debts of the powersr actually
engaged in fighting now total S10,-
560,OOO,0O. The annual revenues of
those countries (including their col
onies and possessions) are less than
$4,000, 100000. After less than eight
months of war, the debts aggregate
20 per cent more than the revenues
for a year. The revenues of the
whole world are less than S12,000,-
100000.
No one can estimate the ultimate
cost of the war. But it is known
what it is costing now. Some author
tiles in London say it is costing all
the powers together a total of $780,
100000 a day. 1t is expected that
with the opening of spring military
operations will be on a larger scale.
So must the cost be also. But even
the present estimate passes human
comprehension, for it is at the rate of
$4,000, 100000 a year, should the war
last that long.
We look upon the Panama canal as
q mighty work for the worlds COM
merce. Yet at present rate of ex-
penditure, the god of war could dup
licate that work in eight days. His
maintenance for three weeks is more
than is spent in a year for education
in this land of free schools. A year
and half of such war would pay for
all our live stock, the products of
the farms, the output of the mines,
and still leave enough to take up the
capitalized valuation of the rail-
roads.
There is considerable conflict in sta
tistics of the wealth of those nations
now at war. But a fair approxima-
ton makes their total wealth $780,
OOO,OOO,OOO. Before the war began
they were all in debt. The total
amount now is climbing up to $780,
900, 100000. What will it be when the
war ends? Should the war be long
one, what Atlas will carry the world
on his shoulders

Embroidery Club Meets

The Paradox Embroidery club was
entertained last Thursday afternoon
by Mrs. Menninger. Twenty-Five mem
bers were prersent and one visitor,
Miss Ella MuIvihill of Hasty.
After a short business and literary

Menninger very charming hostess.
The members of the club entertain
ed their husbands at banquet one
evening of the previous week. About
sixty sat at table and enjoyed the

Fourth of July Celebration in Every
County Through Which the Ma
tional Old Trails Road Runs

Whereas, for many years after the
government was established, its per-
petuity and preservation was a grave
problem. As an inducement to the
states lying west of the Alleghanies
to join the union the government
promised, as early as 1902, that if
the states of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois,
and Missouri would do so the gov
ernment would build a national high
way from tide water on the east and
extending through the West; and
lthereupOn an Act was passel by Con-
gress in 1906 and approved by Thorn
as jefferson, author of the Declara-
tion of Independence, establishing the
Old National Road as a national high
way, its purpose being declared to be
ito cement the states and thus pre-
serve the union" For fully forty
years this policy was adhered to, and
Congress, in turning the road back
to some of the states through which
it ran, expressly retained the right to
resume control and management
whenever it saw fit; and it did more
perhaps, than any other one thing to
permanently establish and preserve
the union; and
Whereas, the people have now high
ly resolved to rebuild and rededicate
the Old National Road to the end that
the original purpose Of its conception
may be preserved and fulfilled;
Now, Therefore, we call upon the
people Of every county through which
the National Old Trails Road extends
from the Atlantic to the Pacific to
hold a National Old Trails Memorial
Fourth of July celebration in 1915, and
thus ratify the establishment and pre-
servation of the American Union, to
which patriotic purpose the Old Road
contributed so materially. AS a part
of such Memorial celebration we re-
spectfully request that all schools and
colleges, civic, commercial and patrio-
tic organizations of every character
shall unite and make this the grand
est and most enthusiastic Red Letter
Day in the nations history.

Redfield Finds Another seapegoat

Secretary Redfeld is doing his very
best to make the department of the
interior an adjunct of one political
party. His whole energy appears to
be expended in a campaign to have it
appear that a low tariff is a good
thing, and that where business is de-
pressed it is due to incompetence and
not to reduced duties. Recently Sec
retary Redfield told New Jersey pot
ters that they did not know their own
trade.
Now this apologist-in-chief for the
Underwood tariff law tells the Mont
gomery county manufacturers that
lax methods are responsible for their
reduced sales. But does Secretary
Redfield intend to indict the heads Of
all American industries?
Steel mills last year were operating
only 40 per cent of their capacity.
Were the steel workers incompetent?
Locomotive plants were working less
than third capacity. Were the chiefs
of that industry incompetent? More
than half of the coke ovens were out
of blast What fault has the secre-
tary to find with the coke producers?
Coal mines, sawmills, leather factor
les, brickmakers and virtually every
industrial plant was in 1914 running
at greatly reduced speed.
Has all America suddenly become
incompetent We have supposed that
the United States has been right in
the van with its industrial ingenuity,
and that in a great many fields we
led the world. But in order to make
out good case for his pet theories
the secretary of the interior informs
us that our methods are obsolete.
In short, the astute Mr.. Redfeld
places most of blame for the worst
trade depression in 20 years upon the
people who have billions of dollars in
vested in industries, and yet do not
have sufficient sense to operate their
own works successfully.-National
Farmer.

URGES SHIP PURCHASE BILL.
Mr.. Alexander Defends Proposal at
Merchant Marine Dinner.

BOSTON, Mass, January 6.-Both
sides of the question of the federal
government going into the shipping
business were debated at merchant
marine" dinner of the chamber Of
commerce last night.
Representative Joshua w. Alexander
of Missouri, sponsor for the bill now
before Congress which would provide
for government ownership and opera
ton of merchant ships, characterized
the proposed legislation as 1.-The mag
ma charta of American shipping" There
was no intention among the proponents
of the bill to create a government mo-
nopoly, he said.
On the other hand, Representative
E. W. Saunders of Virginia objected to
the bill as a poor business proposition
and as a breeder of delicate interna-
tional complications. He said: The bill
is the most radical innovation upon
federal policies since the civil war. II
is substantially. if not avowedly, So
cialistic."
