ceda, es decir, en- que Sc decrete
en- todos los Estados de la Fedora
ci6n que los hombres de campo
puedan tener dos esposas, 81 10 de-
sean, el Gobernad0r de Colorado
sera el hombre mas amado de la
Union, porque sera mas grande
que el immense Lincoln.
A pesar de Ia brillante oportu-
nidad que tiene para opacar la
gloria del Ap6stol de Ia igualdad y
de Ia libertad, Ell Gobernador de
Colorado no ha resueIto apoyar
la iniciativa del agricultor de las

Gig STOCK OF EXPLOSIVES LEFT

PROVING LANDS OF NATION
100000 Pounds Of Picrlc Acid Now
Available For Farmers In I'M
proving Agricultural Lands
Says Authorities

Washlngton-More than 12.O00,OOO
pounds Of priclc acid one of the high
est known explosives, accumulated for
war purposes and made useless to the
war department by the armistice, will
be distributed to farmers for agricul-
tural purposes.
When the war ended the army had
on hand this immense stock OF plcriC
acid, and In addition more than 30
100000 pounds OF II. N. II. The lat
ter was distributed to various govern
mental agencies for use I'm railroad
construction in Alaska, public roads
In the national parks and various pro-
jects on Indian reservations. None OF
the II. N. II. was distributed to indlv-
uals and thus far not a single accident
has marked the use or transportation
Of the millions Of pounds OF the high
explosive, according to officials Of the
bureau of mines.
The question OF what TO do with the
100000 pounds Of plc1c acid puz-
zled government officers for some
time, and the war department had al
most decided to tow the explosive out
to sea and dump It overheard In the
interests of the public safety, when II
was decided TO institute a series of ex-
periments In an effort TO find some
safe commercial use for 1t. The ex-
periments were conducted by the bur
eau of mines and disclosed many ways
in which picric acid could be used
safely and probably on farms, such
as In blasting out stumps and rocks
and breaking up land. 1t was accord
lngly decided to distribute the explo-
slve. practically free of charge, to
farmers.
Plcric acid, a highly crystalline pow
der having a lemon yellow color, is
10 per cent stronger than 40 per cent
straight nltroglycerin dynamite, ac-
cording to the bureau of mines. 1t
should never be used in bulk, officials
say, and its used should be restricted
to redipped paraffined paper cartridges.
The l2,OOO.0OO-pound surplus stock,
located at Sparta. Wis, and Wingate'
N. NJ, will be distributed to farmers
through the bureau of public roads of
the department of agriculture. The
only cost to the farmers, It's is an
nounced, will be freight charges and
a charge of six cents pound for
placing the powder In the necessary
cartridges. 1t will be ready for dis
tribution about July /.

Several months ago the f've-masted

Me-, was found abandoned OF DIAMOND
Shoals, n, O., with all sails set ana
her officers and crew missing. The
Deering went ashore near Diamond
Shoals lightship, and when the men %

A little later bottle came ashore

"An oIl-burnlng tanker or submarine

UTAH MAN HELD IN
GERMAN PRISONS
PHILIP FRITZ KoPP SPENDS
MONTHS IN GERMAN PRISON
WHILE ON VISIT AT HOME
Imperial Officials Prefer Charge
Against Utahan As Stacker and
Place Him In Jail A. Lleanity
and Fine Him 200 Marks

Pleasant Grove. Utah.-Phillip Fritz
Kopp returned to his home here recent
ly after year and half In Germany,
nine months Of which were spent In the
German war prison at Hegnitz, where
he was held on false charges.
Kopp and his wife left here in Jan.
uary, 1920 to visit relatives and friends
In Germany and Alsace-Lorralne. In
the places Kopp visited, he states there
was much dissatisfaction among the
people, and that there had been sew
eral revolts. While visiting In Ger
many, Kopp and some friends were
arrested during one Of these local
uprislngs, and placed in the war prls-
on at Liegnltz. He was first charged
with being a Stacker to the German
army, and as the officials refused TO
believe he was an American citizen he
was fined 200 marks, or about $3.50 in
American money, which he paid.
Mrs. Kopp, being unable to free her
husband, returned to America, and
brought with her the passports, the
only proof they had OF her husbands
citizenship; consequently he was oblig-
ed to remain in prison, with no hearing
or trial, though entirely ignorant OF the
second charge against him. After
about six months of waiting for trial,
he began to think he had been forgot
ten by the officials, so he wrote his
wife and asked her to appeal to the
