 It is learned tonight that no other speech ever delivered in Washington will be circulated to the extent that the Alderman speech will be.

TELLURIDE PEOPLE KICKING
on NEW TRAIN SCHEDULE
Telluride Journal

Telluride Journal
Considerable kicking has been heard
in Telluride ever since il was learned
that the Denver & Rio Grande West
ern railroad contemplated n change in
its train schedule. And since the new
time card was put into effect, there
has been no end of kicking.
The people of Telluride, in the
opinion of the Journal, have no kick
coming on the train service. We have
every reason TO expect that the in
coming train from the north, which is
the one kicked about the most, will ar
rive on time between 90 and 90 per
cent of the time. That has been the
record for more than a year past
with its scheduled arrival at the old
time, 7:30 p. m. so there is no reason
to believe but the on-time record will
continue with the train coming in at
Sis. That in itself will be better
than the late arrival Of this train for
many months.
The facts in the case are simply
these: The railroad company has not
been making money by operating pas
senger trains in and out of Telluride,
in fact, has been losing money on the
venture, and must cut operating costs.

This Is being done by Inc change b

This is being done by the change in
schedule. Now this is just what any
individual OF private concern would
do under the circumstances-cut the
overhead when business fell off. That
is all the railroad company is doing.
With business where it has been with
the railroad company in this section
for many months, We believe Telluride
is exceptionally fortunate that il has
daily passenger service. 1t might be
worse with daily mixed train service.
or with service two or three times a
week Looking at the situation from
this angle, the Journal believes that
the people of Telluride have no kick
coming because of the departure of
the trains is earlier, and their arrival
is later.

Empire Fire Not
Incendiary Says
Insurance Man

George Webster. insurance aijuStei
for the company holding the policy or
the GuEnisoB Empire Office, was in
town last week Friday and arranged
the settlement, paying the Empire
something over $500 for damage done
10 the papers. stock and smaller ma
chineTy Of the office which was dam
aged in the fire of August llth. The
linograph was not covered by insur-
ance, but seems to not have been
seriously damaged. The building,
mortgaged 70 George Jaynes, was not
insured, and that loss of several humid
red dollars. was not covered.
In conversation with the News
Champion reporter, Mr.. Webster stat
ed that, altho il might have been set,
in his opinion the fire was not incen-
diary as charged. II was probably
what is termed flash fire" The
original blaze may have been due TO
a number OF natural causes, such as
exist about a printing office, in the
nature of constant use of oil, gasoline,
etc. Once started. the fire may have
suddenly communicated 10 other poT-
tions of the big room, perhaps from
explosion of a small bottle of alcohol,
or gasoline, or the air becoming super
heated from the considerable blaze in
closed room, may have suddenly
burst into flame at number of seem
ingly Isolated points. which showed up
when the water quickly stopped the
entire fire
It is satisfactory TO have the word
of an expert in matters of that char
acter when such wild rumors are
afioat

MONOTONE.

Mrs Morgan Belmont, who as Mar garet Andrews married the youngest son Of August Belmont in 1915, ap- pears to be suffering from ennui. She has announced that she is tired of the monotony of society life and will enter business in September. She docs not say how long she will stay in business but considering that she will become an employe of New York department store it Is evident that she can relinquish her job at any time, so that is not so important.
 What is important is that this woman Of wealth finds life monoto- nous She is the daughter of MT. and Mrs. Paul A. Andrews of New York and Newport, so it Is presumed she had careful upbringing and has en- joyed all the legitimate pleasures that money can purchase. \ life of ease. however. can become as monotonous as life of unalloyed hardships, per- haps more so.

THE BooTLEGGER VOTE.

Evidently the administration doesn',
 care much about the bootlegger vote
 The vote of bootleggers probably
 doesn't total enough to elect any
 body. and probably is as well scattered
 as there are points on the compass;
 but if their customers are included, the total would be vastly increased.
 Anyway. the administration is going ahead with a new. method to quash the bootlegging business, and the plan Is to kill It at its source. As all the political parties have taken stand for obeying the law, carrying out the 18th amendment and inflicting every phrase in the Volstead act, there will be no political objections.
 What is planned is to destroy rum row with the aid of units from the American navy. At League Island navy yard, Philadelphia, chief prepar- ations appear to be under way. Numerous destroyers, some with the insignia upon their smokestacks in- dicating they sank one or more sub marines during the world war, are be- ing prepared to so upon the high seas and drive the rum row fleet from the territorial waters of the United States. The three mile limit against the rum feet having been expanded through treaties there will be plenty of room for major operations. Guns may boom If the rum fleet contests the waves, and we wouldn't bet a nickel on the chances of any rum ship afoat to withstand the activities of Uncle San's navy.
 It Is believed that rum row will be crippled in six months and practically destroyed in less than a year. The plan is, to transfer 30 navy destroyers to the coast guard and equip 200 fast patrol boats and launches and enlist 3, 800 men in the special rum chasing service.
 About year ago, when the sug- gestion was made to use American naval vessels in a war of extermna- ton against the rum fleets, or at least to guard the American coasts con- siderable opposition was raised and the administration ruled against mak- ing rum -chasers out of naval vessels. The attitude appears to have changed, { and the boys in the wide trousers and comforta ble looking shirts will be given some action on the high seas. : We are reminded that the western vote Is generally dry and that the C will be decided largely in I the west. Perhaps the sdministra- T what's the use of pound- c Ing another chord on the political 4 piano? |

LA TOILETTE WILL
 ANSWER LATER Third Party Candidate to Have
 Something to Say

I Washington, Aug. 18.--Although ] senator La Toilette of Wisconsin has declined to comment on the accept ! ance speeches of President Coolidge and John w. Davis, the democratic
 presidential nominee. he is likely to
 have something to say about the is- sues they discussed even before he delivers his first campaign address.
 Unlike his two opponents, Senator La Toilette will not be the central fig- ure of notification ceremony. He will not take to the stump for several weeks at least. but in the meantime. it is indicated, he will not be silent.
 MT. La Toilette intends to make a formal reply to the endorsement given his candidacy by the executive coun- cil of the American Federation of La bor. It eprobably will be in the form of letter to Samuel Gompers, Presi- dent of the Federation.
 Through letter writing, MT. La Fol- lette also plans to discuss various issues which he does not propose to go into at length from the speaking platform. It was in this way that he outlined his views of the Ku Klux Kan. He also may resort to the issuance of statement from time to time, and expects to make use of the radio, as soon as arrangements can be made for broadcasting over large area.
