PROBLEM FOR STATE

As yet, the bill introduced by Sen
ator staiey and Representative Hall,
to put an end to the pollution of the
waters of streams and rivers, has not
come up for definite action. I'm
doubtedly, this bill will have haru
shedding, because of an organized op-
position which has been in this same
fight before. 1t is perfectly natur-
all that each side to the controversy
should fight to the bitter end, as the
bill if passed. without doubt. will
work a great hardship upon the min
ing industries Of the state, while on
the other hand, if not passed it will
do much to stultify agricultural pur-
suits, to say nothing Of affecting the
land values in irrigated districts to a
material degree.
1t seems to US that there should
be an amicable method of settling this
matter thru, the agency Of the state.
Since it is generally agreed that in
order to continue to thrive the mines
must have an outlet for the water,
after it has been contaminated with
the chemical treatment of the ores,
and since, too, the farmer must in
some manner be relieved from the ne
cessity of using the water, thus pol
luted, in raising his crops. or suffer
great damage therefrom, and mas
much as the State of Colorado MUST
foster the interests of both the min
ing and the agricultural interests, is
it not a question or a problem for
the State to solve in such way that
neither one shall suffer greatly?
There must be some way of purify
ing this water before it is turned in
to the streams. If SO, then let the
State provide such process on 80
80 basis with the mining and the ag-
ricultural interests. We are told that
the mining industry was here first,
and had it not been for them there
could have been no basi< foundation
for this great commonwealth known
a. Colorado. If this is true. then the
mines made it possible for the farmer
to obtain market for his produce.
And, that being true, the prosperity
Of one is the assurance the pros
perity of the other, and their combin-
ed prosperity creates the prosperity
Of the State. Therefore let the State
come to the rescue by providing a
remedy that will be fair and equitable
to both.

The bill pending before the legis-

PLY at first thought, according to Z.
w. Hail. Jefferson county's repre-
sentative, who has been requested to
work for the bill by the ice-cream
manufacturers. Mr.. Hall believes
the bill will benefit the public in this
way, that it will standardize the in
gradients of the product, make ice
cream cheaper, and therefore create
IN even greater demand for dairy
products. At the present time Their.
seems to be no Standardization TO-.

a great deal of the ice-cream is made

second class ice-cream parlors are en-
abled to reap big profit off of the .
per cent product at ten cents per dish
while the other grade suffers because
