MEN WHO BEAT
BOARD BILL
GIVEN 30 DAYS

Beating a board bill did not prove
to be a very profitable experience
for two young men by the names of
Orville Teeters and James Langford
respectively. These young men had
formerly worked at the Union Pacific
depot as helpers. one working the day
shift and the other at night.
Last week Tecters and LangforG de-
cided to depart from Julesburg, and
also decided that they would leave
with their board bill unpaid, which
they did Rex Teed, proprietor of the
Gateway Cafe. was the man who held
the sack for the board bill and it did
not appeal to him in the least that
these men should be allowed to con-
duct their business affairs in such
manner Mr.. iced Immediately got
busy and had the authorities swear
out Warrant for the arrest of Teet-
ers and Langford
Sheriff Thunderstorm then took mat
tiers in hand and soon located the boys
at Colorado Springs, at which place
he notified the chief of police to hold
them for him. The sheriff left Sat
urday morning on No. Is for Colorado
Springs, and returned here Sunday
with the prisoners, lodging them in the
county Jail.
The offenders We're given a hearing
before County Judge Austin Monday
morning, and were sentenced to thirty
days in the county jail, and inciden-
tally have been put to work on road
work.

Then 1t was that the Tiger OF France,

perience. young In vigor OF mind and

knowledge OF a full life Of activity, all
the determination OF a mind and body
dedicated to a single purpose were de-
voted to the supreme task OF the day.
The follles and the crimes that had
hampered his predecessors were as
sailed without fear; vaclllation and In

There is the high hand Of American autocracy operat

DISGUISED FREE TRADE.
9 phlladelnhla Press.

From the Philadelphia Press.
Already there is being heard from
different sections OF the country a
camounaged demand for free trade on
the part OF the United States. IL Is
couched in a plausible form. hut the
idea OF American potts being open TO
receive foreign goods without regard
TO the protection OF the American pro-
ducer is not very far below the cur
face. The form In yhich this demand
is appearing Is in the argument that
the large sum OF money which Eu- ope
owes TO this country can only be paid
by foreign trade Financiers put this
debt at a figure OF ten billion dollars,
and the cry is raised that the only way
to get il back is by creating an adverse
balance OF trade in our dealings with
those debtor nations.
To carry out that method OF payment
woud be inviting disaster 10 American
Industry. II might easily be better not
to have the debt paid at all than at
such a cost to the industrial well-being
OF the country. The application OF
this payment system means an increase
OF importation into the United States
above seven what IL is at present II
would also mean that we must not in
crease our export trade. II we did, 1t
would hurt the trade balance due us.
So we could not have control OF our
own markets, for foreign goods must
be sold here; we could not make goods
10 be sent abroad, for we must not
Increase the amount owing TO us.

Georges Clemenceau. Last week the
Senate Of France declared him to have
