COLORADO GAINING IN
DAIRY PRODUCTION

Colorado is the sixteenth state in
the Union in the production of dairy
products, and ranks next to New York
state in the production of butter, .,c-
cording to figures compiled by ,Roud
McCann, secretary Of the dairy bureau
of the Civic and Commercial asocia-
tion, from reports of the United states
bureau Of markets.
The development Of the dairies in
Colorado has been one of the most
rapid industrial growths in the state.
In 1879 Colorado ranked thirty ninth
in dairy production in the United
States.
The place which Colorado occup es
in the dairy world is more remarkable
because the state stands only thiYtieth
in population. The value Of the dairy
products produced last year was 1885,
100000. OF butter, 13,689, ,069 pounds
were produced, 442,s76 cans of con-
densed milk, ss2,7s4 gallons ice cream
and 429,S97 pounds of American
cheese.
There are seventy creameries manu-
featuring butter in Colorado, two pro-
cess butter plants for the rejuvenation
of butter, nine cheese factories, sixty
ice cream plants and $50 shipping sta
tions. The state has $4,000 dairy
cattle.
The dairies are scattered over the
eastern portion Of the state, but src
concentrated to a large extent in three
counties, Denver, Arapahoe and Bould-
er. In fact, probably 10 per cent Of
the dairy products consumed in Denver
are produced within a radius of fif-
teen miles of the city. This condition,
it is pointed out, insures an exception
ally fresh supply of dairy staples for
Denver.

Hon. James H. Moyle,

Washington, D. G.
Gentlemen:
Congressman Taylor from this dis
trict, acting through his brother and
Mr.. Weyand of the land office here
have been active in spreading q report
throughout the city, that the Hotel
Colorado property was about to be
taken over by the United States as
and for an "inssne asylum" with re
suit that . protesting telegram from
some of the citizens was sent to you
and public meeting held at which like
protest was registered.
On the night of the 14th inst,
telegraphed ~ mayor of the city, tc
Mr.. Moyle requesting information up
on the subject and followed the telc
gram with a duplicate letter sent tt
both Of you, transmitting = circular
notice calling the public meeting re
fcrred to, wherein the Taylor Telegram
notifying us that the location of al
"insane asylum" at Glenwoot
Springs, was contemplated, was SCI
out. In response Mr.. Moyle favored
me with telegram in reply to tht
effect that the Glenwood Springs pur
chanse was still under consideration
which I understand calls for any sng
gegtions may have to make.
In order that my representation
nay b fairly understood by you, yo,
are informed that at all timer during

the officials would disregard the
wishes Of the people Of Glenwood in
this matter, and unless there was q
change in that sentiment felt conf
dent neither Secretary Glass nor Assist.
ant Secretary Moyle, nor General Blue
would be party to a fragrant viola
ton Of the wishes Of tho people OF
Glenwood. He said he knew perfectly
we'll the purpose for which the sale
and purchase was contemplated and
that there were right now over hun
dred insane patients at the st. Eiiza
beth insane asylum near Washington
here, that would be transferred out
there, and that there were a large
number at some other asylums he men
toned that would also be transferred
He tried to argue with me that that
injury to the town and said he wanted
to work WITH ME. He also stated
that he had obtaied from one of the
assistant physicians of the Public
Health service the medical terms of
the various stages and kinds Of mental
diseases, and had sent the names #
these medical terms to Mr.. Darrow
himself, just as they appear in the
mayors letter to Mr.. Moyle and Gen
eral Blue. In other words, he assured
me that he and Mr.. Darrow knew ex-
actly what they were doing, and he
was very positive that they were 60
ing to carry it through.
1 said to him that it was not q
matter between him and myself, or
between Mr.. Darrow and myself, but
was a question for the citizens Of
Glenwood Springs to determine for
themselves, and that as long as their
protest remained with the department
officials, the property, in my judgment,
would not be purchased or used for
government insane or "mental disease
hospital" and the fact that it is
called "psychopathic hospital" in
stead of an insane asylum, does not
eamoflauge or change the object or
purpose for which it is to be used, any
more than calling an undertaker's g
morgus the mortieisn's parlors, changes
the nAtuzs ef the bnsinsss Of handling
the dad.
In conclusion will. say that the only
action I have taken at any time in
this matter has been to try to learn
and help carry out the wishes of the
citizens Of Glenwood Springs, as
shown in my telegram to my brother
when 1 first learned about this pro-
posed sale, and their wishes will con
tinue to be my guide in the matter.
Very cordially yours,

tests above referred to, for the rea.

lst. These protests were premature

End. A telegram from Senator
Phipps and my private information at

but not involving insanity.
8rd. That the patriotism and hearty
good will Of the citizens of Glenwool
Springs, toward our disabled soldiers,
had not abated since the winning of
the war by them.
Ga That the opportunity for these
soldiers to regain their health and
strength amidst the beautiful sur.
roundinss at Glenwood Springs and
the relief obtainable from its medi.
cinal waters, ought not to be denied to
these men.
9th. I have the utmost confidence
in the government of the United

but good would come from its taking
over the property in question.
9th. I consider that if the United
States becomes the owner of tb;,
splendid property, that the fame Of
dlenwood Springs as a health resort
would become known from ocean to
ocean, with result that this city would
increase IN popularity, in size an ma.
terial welfare.
l urge that we be favored as soon
as may be, with an expression from
tho department so far as practicable
and consistent with the situation. Of
what we may reasonably expect as to
the use to which the property will bs
put, If it be taken over; that is,
whether the contemplated use is as and
for IN "iasane asylum" or on the
otheI hand, it's use will be in connec.

TIME CONFLICT IS SETTLED


Dublin, April 23.-After trying out
the proposition of having two sepa-
rates time schedules in the city, the
daylight saving time for railroads,
postoffices and telegraph offices, and
the slow schedule for the city, the
people have become dissatisfied, so
the city council has voted TO move up
the clocks and watches in the city in
conformity with the daylight saving
time, and do away with the confusion
incident to having one time for the
city and another time for the rail
roads.
When the daylight saving date APP
preached, there was much diSsatis-
faction expressed with it, and council
decided to vote i'm favor of not moving
up the clocks in the city. Now, since
trying this scheme, some of its strong
est supporters have declared in favor
of moving up an hour and getting in
time with the remainder of the coun-
try.

such measures were temporary and
that steps were being taken to insure
