be held for the damages. OF
course, indirectly. this would
mean the owner, altho the herder
might be entirely to blame. No
statute book anywhere in the
country contains any similar law.
1t is aIledged to be for the protec-
tion of the farmer. and is touted
as an act that will be of great bene-
fit to him. AS a matter of fact,
the farmer will be the principal
man injured by such a law, and it
will come nearer to putting him
out of business than any act that
could be designed.
Just at this time the outlook for
agriculture in Colorado is bright.
Farmers are busy, and there's lit
tie complaint of any kind as to the
existing law protecting the farm
er from trespassing animals. The
question naturally arises: Why
should the agricultural interests of
this state be inflicted with such a
loaded bomb as this act at this
time! There is no question but
that it will be defeated, but it will
require lots of effort and the en-
penditure of money to acquaint the
farmers and voters of the state
with the danger contained in this
piece of legislation.-Ex.

Should be Called "rroubls Law"

The bill now being circulated by
petitions thru the efforts Of The
Denver Posts weekly paper is
being discussed as ''herd law"
This is certainly misnomer, as in
no portion of the law is any pro-
vision made to permit of the herd
ing of stock. 1t is a trouble law,
pure and simple, The meat of this
bill is embodied in the first section,
which reads as follows:
Section The owner. person in
possession or caretaker of any do
mestic animal or animals shall
hereafter be liable for all injury
done by such domestic animal or
animals
This does not say anything a.
bout herding cattle or keeping
them off of the cultivated crops.
and, rs a matter of fact. the owner,
person in charge or caretakcr is
responsible for any damage they
do, no matter where they are or
what the damage is. If the old

What They Said
About Washington
Great Men Have Spoken
Much In His Praise.

A LII nations have joined in pane
kN gyric on the Father of Ills
1A Country. More often than not
they have been masterpieces
OF wording and exquisite bits of SEN
timent. a few of the most remarka-
BILE and enduring are these:
Lafayette. In my idea General
Washington is the greatest man, for
| look upon him as the most virtuous.
Guizot.-ue had faith in God and
himself.
Daniel Webster.-America has fur
nished to the world the character of
Washington. And, if our American
institutions had done nothing else, that
alone would have entitled them to the
respect of mankind.
Edward Everett.-From beneath that
humble roof went forth the intrepid
and unselfsh warrior, the magistrate
who knew no glory but his country's
good. To that he returned, happiest
when his work vas done. There he
lived in noble simplicity: there he died
in glory and peace. While 1t stands
the latest generations of the grateful
children of America will make this pill
grimage to it as to a shrine. and when
1t shall fall. If fall it must. the mem
ory and the name of Washington shall
shed an eternal glory on the spot.
John Sherman.-General Washington
is a typical American and will always
stand in American history without peer
or rival.
Rev. DIR. Philip Schaff.-For sound
Judgment. integrity, symmetry and
commanding dignity of character he
has no superior among great men.
Washington lrving.-He early ac-
quired the magic of method which it.
self works wonders.
