A Colorado farmer has won undying
fame by a letter he wrote to the gov
ernor of 'hi Ktate last week. If H
hadn't been for a eoupld of murders
the 5arne day, it would prohnbly have
got the attention it deserved. ' This
man'i idea was that the way to, keep
thu boys on the farm Is to grant fl
special dispensation to farmersto
hmow them two wives, if they wanted
that many. ' -
We're in sympathy with the farm
ers. If they want two wives, we're
will'njr. Only we think this thing
ought to le carried to its logical con
clusion. There's a shortage of print
ers, ami we think.fi similar concession
would bring recruits to the trade.
If a man were allowed to have
wives in proportion to the grief he
has to bear, printers would be per
mitted to own harems.
