in no wise infractions of either
moral law or Christianity. The
founder of Christianity especially
rebuked such narrowness. The
Sabbatarianism of His day was like
everything else, more narrow and
restricted than that of today; yet
His remarks might be literally APP
piled, in condonation at least, of
inndcent recreation and physical
exercise on the seventh or first day
of the week. The difference be-
tween riding wheel and going for
walk is the difference between
tweedle-dum and tweedle-dee. and
on the principle of its being
moral and altogether Christian
thing to cultivate n sound mind by
maintaining q sound body, some
form of physical exercise on Sun
day is absolutely necessary to
many men and women who have
too little opportunity for obtaining
either fresh air or exercise during
the week. 1t need not and gener-
ally does not interfere with their
attendance at church. if they would
otherwise be churchgoers. But
some people, who are regular
churchgoers and regular hypocrites
too, would be far better taking
physical exercise and dispelling
the unhealthy mental miasma that
developes in them propensity for
slander and distorts their vision of
other peoples doings, than they
would be in church silently criti-
cising their fellows and thanking
God that they are not as other men
or women.
The Florence daily tribune., 1898-03-28

The only reason that we have
seen or heard advanced against
the Peoples ticket is that it is
supported by James A. McCand-
less. 1t is urged that it is a "One
Man Power" ticket, whatever that
may mean. We believe that it is
also supported by the United Oil
company and by host of very re-
putable citizens and taxpayers.
The Tribune supports it and we
have yet to learn that Mr.. Nc
Candless ever did or ever will
control this paper or anyone
connected with it. In fact we have
a remote remembrance of period
when the present editor of the
Tribune and Mr.. McCandless diff
fered materially and did not hcsi-
tate to express their respective
opinions. James A. McCandless
does not own this town any more
than he Gowns" the Peoples ticket,
but he owns a considerable guam
tity of land here and consequently
pays considerable amount of
taxes. And this is surely reason
why he should favor an admins
sration that will improve the town
and aid its progression and make
It attractive as place of residence.
We believe that the Peoples can
didates. are best qualified to nc
complish this end and that they
will not tolerate such officials as
have scandalized the town during
the present administration. That
is why we support them. And it
is reasonable to suppose that the
big taxpayers, including the United
Oilcempany and McCandless, sup
port them for the same reason.
The Florence daily tribune., 1898-03-28

1t is absurd to allow the person.
al and private enmities of two or
three men to influence cam
paign for the election of town
trustees. The only persons whose
individuality should be considered
are the candidates and the present
officials. When, as in the case
under consideration, the power of
the little machine" composed of
Office holders, is directed toward
the nomination and election of
candidates whose return support
is practically assured to the sub
ordinate officials, it is, however, a
feature compelling close scrutiny.
Had the retiring administration
been nearly perfect, the endeavor
on the part Of its officials to secure
the perpetuation of theirjobs would
not be so Objectionable, but in
this instance it meets the condem-
nation, we believe, of a very large
majority. The mayor has shown
himself woefully weak, to say the
least. He has not even had the
courage of his convictions. One
can admire the energy and deter
mination shown by a man who
pushes ahead with his plans and
does his best to prove himself or
his party right, even if the great
er number of his fellow citizcns
are sure he is wrong. But the
present mayor weakened on the
water question. He wobbled and
fioundered around and finally al
lowed himself to get stuck in the
mud of Newland creek, whence
even the aid of citizens commit
tee appointed to try and make him
do his duty, could not extricate
him. The town attorney, who
had ample warning us to the legal
mess that would ensue if a certain
bond election should be held, per-
sisted in advising the council to
go ahead The consequence was
exactly what was predicted it
would be. A law suit followed, in
the conduct of which the town at
torney had to seek legal advice
from Canon City lawyers. Even
with that aid he failed to sustain
his opinion. The town had to
pay for all this, besides being de-
prived of water, which the mayor
and his adheronts declared would
be supplied Immediately if he
we're reelected. 1t is not neces-
sary to enumerate the shortcom-
ings and mistakes of the marshal.
They have become notorious and
tiresome by their reoccurrencc.
And these compose the trio most
prominent as promoters and sup
portors of the Union ticket.

There has been slight fighting for four

"A Spanish commercial deputation to-

and begged him to surrender, saying
that otherwise they would be utterly

The civil members of the council of

members do not care to endorse such a
