A Bit or Financial History

The credit OF the United States was
no high and unquesti0nabl. that In
1900, two years nfter the Spanish
American war, 2 per cent bonds were
offered At par and oversubscribed.
This is n financial performance no
other nation has ever equaled.
United States per cent bonds in
1883 sold ~ high ~ 100 and In 1901
brought 1878 on the stock market.
The United States has never de.
fnulted on any Of its bonds. Not one
OF its bondholders has ever lost IA
cent Of principal or interest except
those who voluntarily have taken
losses by selling their bonds la n
temporary price depression. One
hundred cents on the dollar. principal
and interest, has the United States
always paid.

Close The Season

Under the above heading Guy M.
Stealey of Buford, sends the follow
ing timely note to the Denver News
OF last Monday:
In the last quarter Of century
Colorado has made some ignorant
and amazing blunders In regard to
the game, especially the deer. The
state let the once great bands of deer
decrease from thousands to hundreds
before even passing any law restrict
ing in degree their slaughter. At
last q measure was passed limiting
the number of deer to be killed and
the time Of hunting, but allowing too
much Of both. The years went by.
Then the next glaring blunder WAS
to enact an open season on does and
fnwns-putting bounty on them, the
guides Indignantly expressed 1t. This
blow At the very heart Of the bands
almost finished up the deer then and
there. Realizing the mistake, the
state again protected the does and
fawns. but still .sllowed the killing
OF bucks. Finally the season was
closed on bucks also. That WAS some
Ave years ago. Under the protection
OF this law the deer began to increase
all over the state, slowly but surely,
and In cOuase Of time would have
been seen thruout Colorado once
more.
But now comes tho greatest aud
worst blunder Of all. Just ~ the
scattered, depleted band Of deer were
beginning to increase again, what
does the state do but open the season
for another slaughter. Result: The
deer are now nearer extinction than
ever before.
Close the season and keep It closed.
Let us save what few deer are left
for the delight Of seeing them In the
hills and not for the purpose Of kill
Ing them off. They will never again
be numerous enough for hunting and
slaughter. The deer add beauty and
companionship to tile Colorado noun.
tains.
From all the Colorado country the
deer are mutely appealing to us for
mercy, for aid and protection. For
my part they shall not appeal In vain.
How about you. friends?

that they showed in their first often

LABOR TRIUMPH
At ENGLISH POLL
SHAKES CABINET
General Election May Be
orced by Irish and
Labor Problems.

London, Sept. 1o.-The result of the
bye election of Widnes. Lancaster. in
which Arthur Henderson. the labor lead
er. was elected to the house of commons,
is considered severe blow to the coal
ition government and has revived specu-
latlon as to the lmmlnence of another
general election.
The virtually unanimous vote of the
trade union congress at Glasgow for the
naturalization of mines and today's vote
on the subject OF withdrawing British
troops from Russia are regarded IS evi-
dence of very determined attitude on
the part of labor against the govern
ment
The reconstruction of the cabinet is
long overdue and has been delayed only
because ministerial changes would in
volve bye elections which it is said would
certainly provide additional evidence that
the tide of feeling is running strongly
against the government. Added to diff
ficulties in the field of labor is the Irish
question. which seems impossible for the
coalition government to satisfactorily
solve
1t is understood that as soon as Prem
ier Lloyd George returns from France
he intends to summon the inter cabinet
to discuss the whole situation.
Arthur Henderson. in an interview
here tonight on his success in Widnes,
said his vic.ory was "an emphatic con
demnation of the coalition governments
policy and of the cynical political COM
promise upon which the government
rests
Il believe" he continued. that the
origin of the demand for policy of di-
rect action lies in the fact that the pre-
sent parliament is felt to be wholly un-
representative of the nation and is dom
mated BY reactionary influences. This
has involved the country in proceedings
which are the negation of democracy. 1t
is shown in developments in Russia, Hun
gary and. near home. in Ireland, where
the situation is obviously grave. Nldnes

afford to ignore.
