I ; FOUR MORE YEARS OF ROOSEVEL I On Saturday of last t week Thc- odore Roosevelt was inaugurated I - 7-- . - president of the United States for the term expiring Iarch 4. 1909. . . For three years thc president has , . . been thc chief executive because t . . _ . \ of thc awful tradgcdy at Buffalo. . Now he is president not ] through chance , hut because of thc desirc . 9f all over whelming majority of the American people , For three years he has faithfully kept the ' . - pledge made at thc bier of the _ . martyred J\lcKinlcy , that he would carry out thc policies of t thc lead president. Now hc begins - " , gins a term of office which is dis. tinctly his own , and which is unhampered - hampered l by any continge tices. l The warfare hc has instituted against trusts and unlawful com- mcrcial combinations is a stul > cn- deus task , because the evils arc ; , . -r . , . . stuIJCIHlo1 ! Many believe that the president has a mouthful , which he will be unable to mast - t J ticatc. Thc writer believes that this struggle brtwcen thc indi- \'idual and l thc t rust will run through the present , generation , but that in the end thc individual will succced. By success is meant . not thc destruction of capital nor thc lnihilation of combinations , , but rather thc enforced obedience . of all classes to thc laws that exist - , : . . , - ist , and the enactment 91' further j legislation to remedy thc wrongs 1 . of property. Thc pioneer of this movement which has been delayed - ed all too long , is Theodore Roosc\'elt. No good citizen will cmbara's ! his efforts cither by in- diffcrencc or bv doubting thc . hon- .

' Commissioner : Garfield has finally - . . . ally reported to congress on thc beef trust. In a written statement covering two hundred pages , thc ; information is given that thc . ; t trust has no monopoly as it con- \ ' ' , - trois but forty five per cent of the product. Thc average profit on h , steer is nincty-ninc ccnts. That at least a part of thc time the . great packing industries lose money. All of this comes as a' great surprise to thc American pcoplc. A profit of nincty nine cents on an investment of fifty dollars is certainly not nnrcason- ablc. Controlling but forty five r , ) J' ' per cent of the beef product is not much of a mOl1olOly. Still , thc purpose for which congress ordered this investigation is not ; ; fully accomplish by time report. In the resolution passed the request - quest for information as to whcth- cr or not thc packing industries were stifling competition was in ale. On this and many ki11(1ted inquiries the report is silcnt. 'l ' ime report may bc classed as a distinct - tinct disappointmcnt , and one that adds but little to thc reputation - tation of thc department of com- nHrcc. : - - - - - - - - SENATOR EDWARD WOL- COTI- ] ( d ward \Yolcott , formerly Ullit- cd States Senator from Colorado , dicd in Paris , France , last wcck after an illness of a few days. Senator 'Walcott was one of the most graceful orators of his timc. Possessing an imiiagiiiatiou of great purity ; having tempel'lncn- tal qualities of sentiment wcll 1 balanced by judgemen and intellect - tcllcct , hc because one of thc dominant forces of his native state , and subsequently of the scnate. In thc channel of his life however , there flowed a Hllul : dy i stream which polluted thc whole. He learned thc truth of thc old adage that a good mis- tress makes a poor wife . Assod- atioils ' 'lm leh1'ere charming' be- cause uf their \ iulations uf the conventionalities of social con- duct fwd the laws of man , grew stale when made legitimatc. Time { < 1 \ 'orcc'hich followed alienated many of his strongest followers , though today time majority of thc republican part in Colorado loves Ed \Volcott with a love that passcth understanli11g. Hc spent most of his later years in New ; : York and Paris following his desires which'erc thc wcrc creatures - urcs of his perfect health and his passions. Senator Wolcott alight have been one of thc first citizens of thc rcpublic. In this instancl ; the words "mig-ht have been ' 'lose none of their sadncss. . . - - - - - NOTHING DOING. Time present legislature has come about as near to doing nothing - ing as ant' similar body of recent ycars. The leg-islation desired by thc people has not been forth coming. The ml'l11bccs seem to have forgotten that thc state is a quarter ofa million dollars in debt. The present constitution fits the state about as well as a "bustcr brews suit would fit a giant , still every proposition to its amcndmcnt isdcfcated. About the only thing accomplished of note , was thc succcss of Senator Cady in his efforts to compel the railroad cOlllmittcc of thc senate to report ' . thc maximum freight . bills. . If thc short timc rcmaining- is to be no more product of good results than the past has been , thc sooner this legislature adjourns the better. . - - . - - - - A Saving Scheme - - , - - ' YrJ _ ' to tlecivtC yoursel L into the belief : . - ! that yell are wing' this _ bank a big' sum of . tilO1lc _ ; .
