DEATH OF T. d. BURNS
AT TERRA AMARILLA
TUESDAY MORNING

Hon. L. ID. Burns is dead. Shortly
before IL o'clock today the news of
his passing was flashed over the
wires from TERRA Amarillo. The end
came at 1910 this morning. While
rcople in this vicinity realized his
condition was critical, more hope had
been entertained for his recovery
since yesterdays favorable report.
The message came as shock to
scores of residents of the Durango
country who enjoyed his personal
friendship.
The late Mr. Burns was stricken
with pneumonia about two weeks
ago, just as the family was on the
eve of their departure for Califor-
MIA to spend the remainder of the cold
weather months, in their commodious
winter home in Los Angeles. A spec
ialist from Pueblo was Immediately
summoned to the sick mans bedside.
Trained nurses from Santa Fe were
employed to care for MIN. All that
medical aid or loving hands could do
was done to alleviate his suffering
but in vain. An attack of heart fail
ure, which followed the siege with
pneumonia cost him his life.
Hon. T. d. Burns held leading
place in that group of men who carv-
ed the sovereign state of Colorado
and New Mexico out Of the inhospit-
able wastes.
He was born in Waterford county
Ireland, October 15, 1874. Nature
endowed him with mental equip
ment which made him forcefuI mem
Der of his race in the land of his adop-
ton.
When he was IL years of age,
his parents babe farewell to their old
home and cast their lot in the Unit
ed States. After residing in Wiscon-
sin for a period of five years, they
moved to Denver, then little village
on the plains.
In 1863 Mr.. Burns embarked on
the business career that was destined

of wealthy men in the southwest. His
first mercantile establishment was in
Conejos, Colorado. Two years later
he opened trading post at TERRA
Amarillo. At the time of his death
he was interested in mercantile es-
Establishments in Park View, Conjibon,
Blanco and TERRA Amarillo, N. NJ,
and in Ignacio, Colorado. Thousands
of head of sheep and cattle, and
thousands of acres of land were in
cluded in his holdings. He owned
the Hermosa House at Trimble
Springs. He had been president or
the Burns National Bank since its
organization.
He was a member Of the territor-
ial senate for five terms and the state
senate one term. During these
years of public service he had an i'm
portant part in solving the problems
of government that confronted the
territory and state. Thru his in
| fluence his section of New Mexico
received generous recognition from
both state and federal government.
The burden Of the years hung
lightly upon his shoulders, and un-
til his final Illness came his activity
in the lines that occupied his atten-
ton during the vigor Of middle age
continued.

Universal Military Service

The more this question is discussed
and the better it is understood by those
who favor a measure OF preparedness
for the United States. the more it ap-
peals to them. Not, of course, on any
thing approximating the German or
French methods, but more along the
lines employed in Switzerland and Aus
tralia. The cost would not be burden
some and the time given to instruction
and training would not interfere mate
rally with the industrial employment
OF the youth Of the land.
The argument in favor Of universal
training is that j. would benefit the
physical welfare Of men to know how to
take care Of themselves, because by
giene. sanitation and the most approved
methods Of preserving health would
form very important part Of the train
ing. Then, 100, the youth Of the land
would learn just what everybody will
admit they need--a measure Of disci-
pine, a yielding to authority, that
would make Of them better citizens.
Our American youth are TOO FESTIVE IN
der restrain, Of any kind. They need
to learn during the formative period OF
their lives that under all government
there must be a certain amount Of will
ing obedience to authority. More than
anything else universal military service
would tend to keep down class distinc-
ton, because the sons of the rich and
poor would stand side by side in the
ranks, and as merit only would lead to
promotion from the ranks. the son Of
the poor man, who developed genius,
would be recognized. So long as it is
necessary to have an army, or until the
world agrees on disarmament, prepared
ness is in the nature of insurance against
disaster, and the American people will
cheerfully pay the cost.
There are few people in this country
who oppose preparedness in toto. It is
more a matter Of agreeing on the best
method and the one that is least calcu-
lated to lead to extravaganza and mill
tarism.

The Chelan County Republican
Convention

In striking contrast with the methods
pursued by the republicans Of Chelan
county last Saturday in convention as
sembled for the purpose Of sending
delegates to the state convention, the
republicans of Utah last week met the
progressives half way. In every county
in the state the progressives were in
vited to meet with the republicans.
They were asked to come back and
work in harmony to the end that VIC
tory at the polls might reasonably be
counted on. In some counties the
delegates to the state convention were
equally divided; in others the republi-
cans were given a majority Of the dele
gates. But in all the progressives
were given representation approximating
their voting strength in proportion to
the total vote. In Utah there is genu-
inc harmony and the result will doubt
less be reflected in the republican vote
in November. The advice further
states that chronic Office seekers in the
republican and progressive parties were
kept wholly in the background for the
reason that this class usually, having
axes to grind, want to get control of
the party machinery and by their ma
chinations and chickering's and their
scheming for tactical advantage pre-
vent what is intended for real party
benefit.
If the Wenatchee republican con-
vention had seen fit to give some recog-
milton to the progressives, say the tenn
porary craftsmanship. and at least some
representation on the delegation to the
state convention, they would have taken
a long and meaning step in the direc-
ton OF real harmony. They could have
done this without sacrificing any prin-
ciple. They had absolute control. A
bit Of generosity would have gone a
long way to bring about genuine har-
mony and unity of action. They used
their power arbitrarily, and if their ac-
ton is reflected in the vote next fall,
on them will rest the blame. Incon-
siderate and decidedly unfortunate for
the welfare Of the party in Chelan
county, is the opinion of this paper.

The latest information from Washing
ton in regard to the Mexican situation
is to the effect that the troops are not
to be Withdrawn at this time, but pave:
the way for early withdrawal by saying
that a tentative agreement has been
reached providing for the gradual with
drawal of American troops from Mexico.
This is roundabout way of saving the
face of the administration. President
Wilson'S handling of the Mexican trou-
bic is one of the plague spots Of his
administration that will not out.

Irish Home Rule Got a Severe Jolt

Those Dublin Sim Feiners played
into the hands Of the Belfast crowd
when they allowed themselves to be
made catspaws of by some German
propagandists. Had the war not come
on Ireland would by this time have
been enjoying home rule. The war
cane on and the government of Mr..
Asquith could not carry out its promise
to the Irish people. Now Ireland may
never get home rule. A few hothead-
ed, misguided Irishmen are responsible.
The great body of the Irish people
were opposed TO the Sim Feiner rebel
lion. 1t was doomed to failure from
the beginning because it lacked the
support Of the people it proposed to
set free. A few hundred Irish lives
were lost, lot of property has been
destroyed and home rule for Ireland
has been put of indefinitely.
John Redmond stood Loyalty by his
agreement with the Asquith govern
ment, relying on its promise to give
his country what it has so long wanted,
home rule Under the law every man
who took part in that rebellion forfeited
his life. The leaders who took part in
