ID. A. X. Meeting.

Ft. William Bent Chapter ID. A. X.
held its last meeting of the year on
Tuesday afternoon, May sth, at the
home of Mrs. X. f. Adams. The
meeting was opened by the Regent,
Mrs. ID. A. Mclean.
Mrs. X. C. Goodale at the piano and
Mrs. G. L. Koonsman violin accompani-
ed the singing of the Star Spangled
Banner.
The annual reports of all officers
showed a pleasing amount of work
and activity accomplished during the
year.
The report of Mrs. Lucille Garvin,
who has served as state chairman OF
the national committee on interna-
tional relations, for the past two
years was most interesting.
The program of the day was il
charge of Mrs.Allen and Mrs. Bean OF
Holly. A well prepared and interest
ing pape on Memorial Continental
Hall was read by Mrs. Allen; also i
paper on The Administration Build
ing, prepared by Mrs. Bean, who wa
unable to be present. A social houi
followed during which refreshnent;

A Sound Suggestion.

F. l.. Chapman. editor of Better
Farming" in an article entitled "The
Farmer and the Railroads." says:
81 think that the farming business
and the railroad business are so ut
terly dependent upon each other, their
interests are so identical that the man
who drives a wedge between them is
either crazy or a crook.
perhaps he is neither, but just am
bilious to capture political leadership
among the farmers, and, to entice
them he is willing to deceive them to
their great injury"
Commenting on Mr.. Chapman's sug-
gestion, the Albuquerque Herald says:
yet, year after year, we have per-
mitted ourselves to be led around by
the collective nose by this ignorant
politician and that unscrupulous DEM
ogogue, ambitious to capture leader
ship, who have proposed nostrum af-
ter nostrum in the way of unintelli-
gent regulation piled upon unintelli-
gent regulation, until the railroads
are striking out blindly in a fruitless
effort for relief, and shippers and ulti-
mate consumers are reaching around
gropingly for some remendy hid in the
dark.
But to no one does the thought
The Lamar register., 1923-05-09

seem to have occurred that we might
return for another experiment with in
dividual initiative; that we might re-
move few of the wrappings of reg
'ulation under which the genius of
American railroad management has
shriveled; that instead of rushing
iheadlong into consultations and swal-
lowing whole the new theory of elm
mating competition which will lead us
certainly where we do not want to go,
government ownership, we might re-
turn to the principle from which rial
road regulation sprung a quarter of
n century ago and take steps to insure
at least measure of competition.
"Would it not be possible for the
government of the United States to
say to the railroad owners, Here, take
your railroads and run them. If you
run them right and treat our people
justly we are with you. If you run
them greedily and recklessly we will
punish you. 1t is up to you.
as that a dream, in this land of
the free? Or have we, indeed, en-
countered in the railroad problem one
with which this nation is incompetent
to deal ?"

SENSATIONAL SUCCESS
OF YOUNG ARTIST
Irene Stolofsky, violinist at Chautau-
qua.

Seldom indeed does distinguished
mention by greatest critics fall to the
lot of so young an artist as Irene Stol-
ofsky.
Miss Stolofsky was born in Ameri-
ca, Chicago, of Polish parents. Six
years ago she played her first trial
selection for Redpath. She was i'm
mediately engaged and has been with
the Redpath-Bureau ever since.
Everywhere she has appeared, in
great cities, small towns, Chautauqua
tents or magnificent halls, her success
has been immediate and great Liter
ally reams of press comment speak un-
qualified praise of the little violinist.
We will quote from one: "She is a
tiny. pocket edition. is Irene Stolof-
sky, a marvel violinist. She has tons
of personality and about the lovliest
brown eyes, so soft ard appealing,
that you ever saw"
Despite this however. her playing
Is much like a mans in its strength
and virility. Yet there is also del
icacy which only q womsn's touch can
give"
Mis- Stolofsky has endeared herselw
to her audiences by playing a number
of sweet, appealing old songs which
everyone loves and so few Of the great
artists take time to play.
As supporting artists Miss Stolof-
sky will have Mr.. George B. Imbrie
baratone and Miss Magdalene Mass
man. pianist.

A Business Proposition.

Enemies of u reasonable tariff have
always argued that we must buy from
foreign countries or we cannot sell to
them. Customs receipts for March on
imported goods, totaling S62, ,172, 900,
broke all records. The nearest previ-
Gus figure was for September, last
year, With $53,l35 900.
This means that tariff which is
giving reasonable protection to Amer
ican wages, is preventing ruination of
our industries and at the same time
turning into the government, revenues
of over s5OO,OOO,OOO a year which
would otherwise have to be dug up by
taxpayers.
The per capita amount of all our
customs duties have averaged for
years but slightly more than 1 cent
per day. Even under our new tariff
which has been so unreasonably de-
bounced, the amount per capita can
be scarcely more than Ia cents per
day, perhaps less. The man who is
thereby protected in his job and in his
wage will reap the benefit of probab-
iy twenty times that amount daily, in
fact it may mean his very job.
The tariff question should not be a
political football. 1t should be the
most scientific business proposition
with which our government deals. A
properly adjusted tariff is not to shut
out foreign trade, it is to furnish need
ed government revenue and to so
equalize the cost between an import
ed and domestic article that the do
mestic product will have chance to
secure its share of the business and
thereby operate and maintain our
American payrolls and American STAN
dards of living.
These are facts which no amount of
political argument or unreasonable
prejudice can change.

COLORADO HIGHWAYS
Great improvements Made But Much
More Remains to be Done.

Colorado now has 67,6OS miles OF
highways, according to surveys made
by the United States bureau of public
roads and the Colorado State Board of
Immigration. OF this mileage approx
imately $4,000 miles are improved in
some way.
OF the improved roads, 14l miles are
cement and AGO miles are surfaced
with some special surfacing material,
of water-bound surfacing. About 49,
500 miles have been graded and drain
ed, while the remainder are unimprov-
ed. The total includes S,l47 miles of
state highways, all of which are i'm
proved and nearly one-half of which
are surfaced.
The state now has approximately
0.65 of mile of highway for each
square mile of area, which is consider
ed a fair highway development for a
state having so large a mountainous
urea. 1t is approximately so miles of
highway for each 1000 inhabitants
based upon the population reported by
the census bureau for January /, 1920
The mileage figures do not include, OF
course, streets in incorporated cities
and towns.
There are sixteen counties having
one mile or more of highways for each
square mile of area, as follows: Ad.
ans, Boulder, Crowley, Ell Paso, Gil
pin, jefferson, Kit Carson, Las Ami
mas, Logan, Mesa, Otero, Phillips,
Sedgwick, Washington, Weld and Yu-
ma. Logan county leads in this re-
spect, with l.S1 miles of road for each
square mile of area.
There are eleven counties having
less than one-quarter of a mile of
highway for each square mile of area,
as follows: Baca, Costilla, Eagle,
Grand, Gunnison, Hinsdale, Jackson,
Mineral, Park, Pitkin and Rio Blanco.
1t will be noted that the counties hav-
ing the largest road mileage in pro-
portion to their areas are principally
highly developed agricultural counties,
the one notable exception being Gil
pin county, which is a small county
having important state highways pass
ing through it. On the other hand the
counties having the smallest highway
mileage in proportion to their areas
are for the most part counties having
much mountainous territory. The
notable exception in this case is Baca
county, which is developing rapidly
and is having new roads laid out as
development requires.
Las Animas county. which is the
largest county in the state, leads in
total road mileage, while Weld county
which ranks third in size, leads in
mileage of surfaced roads. Most o,
the cement highways are near the
larger cities of the state.
