Does Lamar Need a HospltaIr

Does Lamar need a modern, we'll
equipped hospital? Beyond all ques-
ton, she does.
Lamar is the center for a large
territory. People come here for trad
ing purposes from fifty miles north
and one hundred miles south. For the
emergencies when hospital services
are required they come equal dis
tances. For the welfare Of the patient
he ought not to have to go farther.
The distances in this country are
great and travelling wcarisome, even
for one who is well and strong. The
one who is sick or injured and in i'm
mediate need Of medical or surgical
aid ought not to have to add to thc
journey into Lamar railway trip to
La Junta, Pueblo or Denver. Expert
ence has shown that for such emer-
gency cases every hours delay and
every additional miles journey, dimin-
ishes the patients chances for recov-
cry by so much.
Moreover, Lamar is so far removed
from the larger centers as to place,
on account Of expenses in reaching
them, the hospitals Of those larger
centers beyond the reach Of many
Hospitals are distributed here and
there over the state at strategic
points, and Lamar should not be be
hind other sections.
As we understand it, a hospital in
order to perform successful work
does not need to be large. Numerous
instances are cited Of smaller hos
pitals that are well equipped and mod
ern in every particular, and that are
doing exactly the same quality Of
work as the larger hospitals in the
cities, only on a smaller scale This
places TIE possibility Of such hos
pital within the reach Of this com
nunity.

New York, July THE manufae-
turing boom that has been sweeping
the United States as the result Of the
allies war orders is about to wane.
A big slump is looked for in the
business of making munitions for the
entente powers, and in fact, has al
ready set in.
Thousands of workmen have been
dismissed by various firms who have
closed the doors of plants of putting
out arms, ammunition and war ma
terial for England, France and Rus
sia.
Most of the contracts let early in
the war have been filled. In many
cases there were no renewals.
The foregoing dispatch appearing in
several Of the largest papers of the
country is evidence that the assertion
of republicans that the present pros
perity of the country is born of the
European war and not sprung from
sound conditions locally is true. 1t
simply goes to show that when the
war is over, yes, even perhaps before
it is over, now that Great Britain
claims to have 80 new arsenls and
1000 controlled firms putting out mu-
nitions, the relapse will come. With
proper Legislation from congress the
full effect of the blow may be di-
minished, but there is no indication of
any reason TO hope for such legisla-
tion from the present congress. It's
majority is not composed of men who
are pursuing the right theory.-South

Senator Patterson Dies

On Sunday morning Senator Thorn
as NJ. Patterson passed quietly away
at his home in Denver in his seventy
sixth year. He was probably the
most widely known citizen of the
state, and had occupied more prom
inent place in its history than any
man now living. He was a man Of
great ability, a born fighter, and al
ways fought in the open as ne never
lacked the courage of his convictions
Even when after seventy eventual
years of life he sold his paper the
Rocky Mountain News, he just could
not retire as he announced he would.
but when the big state fight Of 1913
ID was on he was soon in the front
of it and was nominated by his party
for governor. His defeat in November
1914, marked his final retirement He
came to Colorado while it was still
territory in 1872 and at once jump
ed into prominence and maintained "a
foremost position for over forty years

Watchful Waiting Again

"Watchful waiting" has acquired a
new significance since the publication
OF the British black list Of American
business men. Because Of the Brit
ish control Of the seas and the stern
resolve Of the British government to
make the most OF that control in car
rying on the war with Germany,
Americans engaged in international
commerce can be forced either to
abandon their neutrality or give up
their business.
This is a condition that ought TO
receive prompt attention and vigorous
action on the part Of the American
government, but when the matter l.
brought to its attention, II is discover
ed there are in existence numerous
treaties negotiated by one william
Jennings Bryan which prevent eff
fective action for period Of one year.
The principle involved in these
treaties is simply, Anybody can kick
you but you must not kick back

Still Welded to Its Folly

The remarkable literary document
sent out from the St. Louis conven-
tion as the platform Of the demo-
cratic party is emphatically clear on
some scattered points. One Of these is
the unqualified endorsement Of the
administration shipping bill; now
pending before congress. That this
measure was rejected a year ago does
not lessen the devotion of the Presi-
dent and his secretary Of the treasury
To its provisions, and they will make
all efforts to secure its passage. As
at present pending the measure does
not in any material way differ from
the one that failed in the last con
gress 1t provides for the appropria-
ton Of s5OOOO,OOO to be invested in
merchant vessels for the seagoing
trade, these to be sold or leased to
private owners, with the provision
that the government has prior claim
upon their services in the event of
war.
This means the investment Of pub
lie money in enterprise into whlch
private capital hesitates to venture.
The absurdity Of the whole thing eli
makes in the fact that it is the SER
ious proposal of a party that has al
ways prtended to shrink from sub
ventions Of any kind, especially from
the payment of subsidies or bonuses.
1t is also part of the record OF the
democratic administration that it fore
ed American ships to pay tolls through
the Panama canal, a concession to
the shipping interests of Europe. A
further anachronism is that the meas
ure will open American coastwise
trade to foreign built vessels, thus
compelling the direct competition OF
our merchant marine with the world
in the only field Of profit that has
been preserved to it by protective

President Wilson addressed the ma
tional convention Of postmasters last
week and after his address they al
most unanimously passed a resolution
endorsing him as the future hope Of
Americans. Evidently they thought
the seven hundred postmasters there
assembled constituted the American
people, and he is their future hope
even if it is so frail that they are al
ready beginning to worry as to wheth-
er they will be allowed to hold out
their terms. Very fortunately the
other 99,999, 300 Americans are not
pinning their future hopes on a
weathervane, but on the certainty of
a change at the White House on the
fourth day Of next March-and it will
occur on the fourth too, as the people
will not tolerate the continuance of
present conditions twenty-four hours
longer than necessary even out of
respect to Sunday observance.

British Boycott on Americans

Whether we have any remedy that
or not, it is certain that the State
Deparement will suffer from no lack
Of verbal ammunition in attacking
the latest British enlargement of the
so-called trading g-with-the-enemy in
hibitions. Blacklisting American
firms because of the antecedents of
some of the members is a gross in
suit to the United States. Our cit'-
zens are citizens, no matter "hcir
they were born or to what flag they
once owed allegiance. We fought
with Great Britain over that subject
in 1912 and it has not repeated the
particular form Of violation u our
rights of citizenship since. But we
have acquiesced in some recert vio-
lations of a milder character, by re-
fusing to extend to our citizens with
Teutonic names the protection to
which an American passport wouli
entitle them.
1t is understood that some of the
firms appearing in the recently pub
lished blacklist have already suffered
greater injury than the ''trading-with-
the-enemy" act formally threatens.
One New Yorker, whose business is
with the Orient, has been practically
ruined, through seizure of his goods
and interference with his banking
facilities. He has been an American
citizen for twenty years The boy
colt has reached the secondary stage
in numerous other cases. If American
citizens should enter into and con-
summate conspiracy to destroy other
citizens business in such a way, they
would be severely dealt with under
our criminal laws. The excuse of
military necessity cannot be stretched
to cover such cases. Taken in con-
nection with other high handed pro-
ceedings, the British policy is ap-
parently aimed at injuring American
business wherever a military prctcxt
for blow at it may be found.
This country has only sentimental
interest in the program of the en-
tente allies to destroy German COM
merce after the war. By announcing
1t the allies raise a question as to
whether their chief concern all along
has really been the crushing Of
Prussian militarism" But this coun-
try is in duty bound to protect its
own citizens from such unlawful in
juries as have been already inflicted
and which are bodily threatened.-Ex.
