OlylItbN lNp CloStly tht WI
~ of our State Supreme and Den
yer District Courts for some
= time. one cannot help from say
ing n word of commendation over the
conduct of these, the peoples institu-
tions of Law, by the judges and their
observation-disclosures of court, jury COM
missioner. bailiffs and others who with
clock-like regularity serve the best IN
terest of our commonwealth by their
unfailing and unceasing attention TO
duty: their fearlessness in dispensing
the law, at the same time remember
ing Justice tempered with mercy as
well as the Introduction of systemat-
ic order of business which results in
our courts being placed at high-water
mark, commanding the attention and
respect of Colorado and other states.
SELECTION BY THE PEOPLE.
The present composition of the
Judges of the above and other courts
is the result of the peoples selection
at duly authorized elections, in which
there is no guessing as to the qualifi-
cations of these men, as their legal
practice and professional life have
been under the S-ray examination OF
the public for many years, and there
fore in their election by great plurall-
ties there ought to be no other conclu-
sion but that the people selected the
best TO preside over their legal affairs,
and entrusted the dispensing and ad-
Indicating of the law into the hands OF
such persons who they felt were above
compromise or any influence that
would interfere with the dignity OF the
courts or righteous dealing with the
people in their demands for justice,
whether between individuals, corpora
tions, city, county or state. These
Judges in turn make their appointments
as to junior officers of the courts; not
the offering to friend for some KIND
act done towards them in the days
gone by, nor the repayment for some
particuIar service ut an eventful time
in their lives, but by election at regu-
larly constituted meetings where the
names of persons are presented, wen
recommended in their applications ana
who receive such appointments by
majority vote of the judges. Not SO
long ago in the appointment OF jury
commissioner, three men were nomi-
mated, and after a close ana executing
contest at three successive meetings OIL
the Judges, one candidate succeeded In
getting the four out of six votes re-
quired for appointment as jury COM
missioner of the District and Count!
Courts. This forms one of the many
proofs of the manner in which busi-
ness of the judiciary is conducted. Inc
courts therefore, endeavor and gener-
ally succeed in selecting the Dest men
and women for the Junior offices ps

in every feature could at the some time
offer some help to the selection OF ap-
poiptees for various state and city po-

colored citizens selected within the

a discussion among the judges on the

they be termed civil servants or BEN
EFICIARIES OF ELECTION

ing appointments or employment,
whether representative or otherwise,
should come recommended from the
class of citizens who have labored hard
and won the recognition of backbone
citizens;" who have helped to share
the heat and burden of the day in
contributing to the growth, mainten-
ance and substantial conditions that
now prevail; and chiefly among the
people of color, provision should be
made in awarding them for the part

State from what was surely doomed

oppression. We have been remembered
with the very minor positions during
we have played, the stand that we took
proving without n doubt the courage OF
our conviction that the REPUBLICAN
PARTY is the only source, the only
agent we can depend on to fulfil their
prediction promises, can voice from
us be heard in the request for one or
two real representative positions for
opr people so that others may see and
know that Colorado, Denver, are not
unmindful of our contribution to the
recent REPUBLICAN VICTORY, and
that the people of color will not be for

A good lesson and great example
set by our courts. Would other state

RECRUITING ON THE MEXICAN
BORDER.

OF course the recruits that are be-
ing gathered into the United States
Army have to be congregated some
where, and maybe there is nothing
significant about it at all, yet the
fact remains that the Mexican Dor
der is the scene of considerable ac-
tivity right now. The famous Sec
ond Division, known as the Indian
Heads in the big fighting in
France, are being strengthened at
the rate of $50 new soldiers day, at
Camp Travis, Texas. Major General
p. G. Harris, the Adjutant General of
the Army says that the Second D1
vision will be recruited up to II, 900
men.
No one can suspect that the pres
ent Administration is entertaining a
war-like disposition toward Mexico,
which has of late been making sub
stantial Improvement in it's internal
affairs, while ar the same time
evidencing a spirit towards the Unit
ed States that it not being criticized
at Washington. Some of the elder
observers" in the newspaper frater-
nifty at the Capital interpret the ac-
tivity on the Mexican border due to
the fact, that the present administra-
ton does not desire to leave itself in
a position so that the Republicans
will be able to say that they could
not meet any unpleasant condition
with Mexico, because of inadequate
military forces at the border.

TELLS HOW

1.-THE great trouble with the poultry
business has always been that the lay
ing life of a hen was too short" says
Henry Trafford, international Poultry
Expert and Breeder, for nearly eighteen
years Editor of Poultry Success.
The average pullet lays $50 eggs. II
kept the second year, she may lay 100
more. Then she goes to market. Yet,
it has been scientifically established that
every pullet is born or Matched with over
one thousand minute egg germs in her
Bystem-and will lay them on highly
profitable basis over period of four
to six years time if given proper care.
How to work to get 1000 eggs from
every hen: how to get pullets laying
early; how to make the old hens lay like
pulets; how to keep up heavy egg produce
ton all through cold winter months when
eggs are highest; triple egg production;
make Stacker hens hustle; $500 profit
from every hen in six winter months.
These and many other money making
poultry secrets are contained in Mr.. Traf
fords 1000 EGG HEN" system of poul-
try raising one copy of which will be sent
absolutely free to any reader of this
paper who keeps six hens or more. Eggs
should go to a dollar or more a dozen
this winter. This means big profit to
the poultry keeper who gets the eggs.
Mr.. Trafford tells how. If you keep
chickens and want them to make money
for you, cut out this ad and send 1t

Nm ALL the representative displays
n of hats for inter much plumage
and much manipulation of p!umage
are in evidence. The all-feather hat
is always a part of the autumn mil
linery parade, but 1t has never APP
peared in such numbers or in so many
combinations and cOlors as this fall.
Feather and fur hats are usually
small and expensive. This season finds
generous sprinkling of larger shapes
among them, and as compared to other
millinery they contrive to be less ex-
pensive than heretofore. This coun-
try has always supplied great quaint
ties Of raw feathers and during the
war may have learned to rely on home
manufacturers instead of sending
feathers overseas and importing the
hats made of them. 1t takes great
deal Of work to make good feather
hat, hence we ought not to expect low
prices OH them.

HOMEMADE TENTS.

The tent in Fig. l is about as simple q

for which a rake handle or pole Of
about that size, may be used, is sup
ported at one end by blocks of wood
nailed to a fence in the form of n
bracket. The other end is suspend

tent material, after being thrown over
the ridge-pole, can be tied at the sides
to stakes driven into the ground, or
the side edges can be tackled to wood
en- strips fastened to stakes as shown
