Urges Regulation Of Cold
Storage Business.
THE ONLY REMEDY TO
PREVENT PROFITEERING
Says Some Middlemen Are Making
Over 66 Per Cent Profit on Eggs
Alone-Urges Time Limit on Dur
alton of Storage.

An Associated Press dispatch in
last nights Denver Post says:
WASHINGTON, Aug. 13.-Fed-
eral regulations of cold storage of
food was urged in the senate
Wednesday by Senator McKellar,
Democrat of Tennessee, as certain
means of reducing the cost of
living and as the only remedy for
"the most outrageous piece of pro-
fiteering that can be imagined"
The meat packers were charged
by the Tennessee senator with
using cold storage facilities to fix
food prices.
Explaining his bill, Senator Nc
Kellar said it would limit the time
foods could be held in cold stor-
age and has been vigorously op-
posed by the packers.
Citing recent statistics of the fed
eral trade commission of food held
in cold storage, Senator Mcclellan
said they showed vast increases
over the amounts stored last year.
He compared retail prices, obtain
ed from the manager Of the senate
restaurant, showing large increas-
es in price, despite the increased
supplies in storage.
Some middlemen," said Mr.. Nc
Kellar, .are making 66 % profit
on eggs alone. the only possible
way in which these prices can be
manipulated is thru the medium
of old storage. Put limit on the
time in which these goods can be
held and the packers will be com
PEELED to SELL"
Eggs, particularly, the senator
asserted, "are mOnopoliZed. They
are in the hands of the most giant
there is in the world.
The price the packers pay and the
price at which they are sold is
out of all proportion and they
never will come down until eggs
are stamped and regulated"

Andrew Carnegie built the Peace
palace at The Hague and, five
years after it was opened and de-
dicated. he died, still dreaming of
universal peace, few months
after the guns of all Europe had
thundered fire and death in the
most relentless and overwhelming
war in all history. To build the
Palace of Peace at The Hague he
spent Sl,500,0OO. To build the Car
negie libraries he gave $4,000, 600.
He created the Carnegie Founda.
tion for the advancement of learn
ing with an initial donation of
$l6,00O,0OO. His total recorded
benefactions exceed $3S5,OOO. And
it is possible that the remainder of
his wealth, disposed of in his will,
may amount to half billion
dollars.
When he celebrated his eightieth
birthday Thanksgiving day, 1915,
in his New York home, he said
that fifty-eight years before that,
he had arrived in New York from
Scotland and thought himself for
tunate to get work as a bobbin
tender in Pittsburgh cotton mill
at $l25 a week.
His story is one of the most 70.
mantle ever written And the ro-
nance of it comes, not from the
fact of his vast wealth, nor of how
he got 1t, but from the marvellous
and vivid way in which he set
about to spend it.

it is needful to understand Scot

HORSES STILL DYING
New Epidemic Has Taken on Many
Horses the Past Week.

The new horse epidemic, whether
it be the old so-called Kansas
Plague, or whatever it may be

abating. In fact a number Of
horses have died ! in this section
during the past week.
Among the losses are, Frank
Smith. engineer of the A. v. Land
Co., who has lost two and has two
more sick. Sherman Robinson the
drayman has also lost two.
New cases are reported in various
parts of the county. among these
being one animal at the Amity
Canal Model Dairy Farm.
DR.. Chas. Lamb, state veterin-
arian, and DR.. Styles, of the feder-
al diagnostic labratory, both of
Denver, have been in the section
investigating the disease and DR..
Styles claims to have discovered q
bacteria which he thinks Is the
cause of the disease.
DR.. Hover. one of our local vet
erinarians who has been very
busy in his efforts to relieve cases
tend. and has vaccinated many
animals, says that. after animals
become affected vaccination has
been attended with some sue
cess, but that rs preventative
vaccination has given little OF no
relief or encouragement.
DR.. Myers of this place reports
the disease spreading widely and
quite rapidly. 1t has broken out
in the San Luis valley, and near
Pueblo many horses are afflicted,
while many are dying in all sec.
