Solomon right when he said: Wisdom
Is better than rubies?"
There is also something in tke deep
carmins of the ruby that suggests the
sacrifice on which our whole system of
religion depends While the emerald
suggests the meadows, and the sap
phire the skies, and the opal the sea,
the ruby suggests the blood of sacrifice
The most emphatic and startling of all
colors hath the ruby. Solomon, the
author of my text, knew all about the
sacrifice of lamb and dove on the affairs
of the temple, and he knew the mean
ing of sacrifcal blood, and what other
precious stone could he so we'll use to

of the greatest martyr of all

the story Of the crucifxion out of
the Bible and the doctrine of the
atonement out of our religion, and
there would be nothing of Christianity
left for our worship or our admiration
Why should it be hard to adopt the
Bible theory that our redemption was
purchased by blood? What great
bridge ever sprung its arches; what
temples ever reared its towers; what
nation ever achieved it's Independence;
what mighty good was ever done with
out sacrifice of life? The great wonder
of the world, the bridge that unites

Political POINTERS.

The two or three counties in South
western Colorado that two years ago
gave such large majorities for Waite
and the Populist ticket can repeat the
operation this year without in any
way making the election certain.
There were nearly 10000 Democratic
votes two years ago. of which Maupin,
the White Wings nominee, received
less than 10000. With = stronger
ticket in the field this year, on both the
Republican and Democratic side, 1t Is
hardly likely that Waite could get as
many Democratic votes as he did in
1892, while TO Offset that the defec-
ton in his own party. against which
he will contend in vain, is enough to
defeat him. No, the Pop ticket is too
heavy Waited 10 win.

The revolt against Waiteism is
Speeding. Even in the mining coun-
ties, where the workingmen were bun
coed into believing that Waite is the
friend of the workingman and the
Populist party the only friend of sill
yer, the tide is turning. The fact that
the friendship" of the governor only
lives to get the workingman into
trouble and does not either furnish
him employment or give him better
wages when he gets work, is begin
ming to make the laborer wonder of
what practical benefit such friend
ship is? The other fact that Popu-
lists in other states are repudiating
the silver plank in their platforms nat
urally creates doubt as to the SINGER
ity of the party anywhere in its pre-
tended advocacy of silver. The truth
is the Populist party is n greenback
party pure and simple, and Phoebe
Couzlns. one of their leading orators,
expressed the real sentiment of the
leaders when she said, after visiting
a silver mine, that it was a shame to
make men work in such places at all
The old rag baby is good enough for

lists who think the stamp of the gov

The women of Colorado are deeply
interested in the labor question. Idle
husbands and fathers mean distress
to the families. Disturbed labor con-
ditions tend to close mines, mills and
factories and swell the army Of the
unemployed. Voting to keep the Pop
ulist party in power means n con-
tinued disturbance in labor circles, an
unhealthful agitation that weakens
confidence and retards development
and growth. and loss Of wages to the
workingman. A vote for the Repub-
lican party is a vote to restore conf
dence, invite investment in industrial
enterprises and create a healthful ac-
tivity in those lines. The winter is at
hand when the expense Of living will
be greater and the prospect of work
poorer under existing conditions.
Women of Colorado who are most in
terested in this problem. will you by
voting the Populist ticket cast your
Influence to continue the train of mis-
fortunes which its election two years
ago brought upon the state? We think
not. Your good common sense tells
you most emphatically that change
is demanded and you can only secure
substantial relief and helpful change
by voting the Republican ticket in No
vember.

When ones digestion is normal he
doesn't know that he has a stomach;
when 1t is bad. he thinks he Is all
stomach. so great an influence does
that important member exert upon the
human anatomy. In a political sense,
when things are conducted decenty
and in order. the governor OF the
state is merely pleasing incident OF
its organization. But under the gro
tesque administration Of Waite, Colo
rado has been made to feel as If she
were all governor. This arrogant and
outrageous abuse of authority In ex-
ercising the functions of his office has
induced very bad case of political
dyspepsia. to cure which after next
January she will be put on different
regime. She will not have too much
governor. as at present, but just
enough for her happiness and pros
perity. The name OF the gentleman
who will be called on to occupy the
executive chair for the coming two
years is Albert w. McIntire.

THE old man is honest, Is what
some OF the admiring sycophants OF
Waite are saying. But that is on
par with a majority OF the statements
they make. If Waite has an honest
impulse. except to be reelected ana
retain his pull on the state treasury.
IL has not yet been discovered. He
has prostituted the efficiency OF the
public service to political ends to an
extent that no other executive of the
state ever thought of doing. Even the
policemen on the force in Denver can
only be appointed after consultation
with the .old man" Is il not Dig
nified performance for the governor
of a great state TO descend into the
political mire to the extent OF not
only personally supervising the petty
appointments in city governments,
but actually levying for political pur-
poses an assessment on their salaries!
Yes this shows that the ''old man Is
honest'"-in his intention to create
machine beside which the famous
New York Tammany may hide its
diminished head.

the original Wilson bill. Upon
the result of that fight depends
the fate of the tariff bill. If it is
successful, it is believed that the
bill is doomed, unless the German
Brice combine shall abjectly sur
render, as every member of it has
openly stated that they would not
vote for the bill without the
amendment they demanded and
obtained from the Senate. 1t must
not be forgotten that loss of
three votes in the Senate means
the final defeat of the bill. The
Republicans are not, of course, ex-
pectlng anything quite so good as
that, but they will not be surpris-
ed if it happens, and you may be
sure that they will do nothing to
make the fight between the House
and the Senate less bitter.
