One of the encouraging signs of
the times WIS TIE meetings in
Broadway Temple and Coliseum
hall, Denver, last Sunday. Both
meetings were crowded to the ut
most to hear Myron Reed, Rabbi
Friedman and Eugene V. Debs
preach the new celigion-thc faith
erhood ofGod and the brotherhood
of man. We cannot help but con-
trass this new religion with that
which WAS dinged into our ears
at the old Congregationalist meet
ing house at the cross roads down
in Maine, where Purson Greeley
held forth twice every Sabbath
aud preached infant damnation"
and the marrow way" where the
few could enter in, aud after the
close OF the sermon listen 10 the
choir chant "Haik from the tomb,
doleful sound" and the like,
while We looked on; upon "a near
by grave yard The old ideas
tnught in the pulpit that heaven
was for the select few and bel, for
the masses has had much TO do
with shaping our social aud politi-
cal institutions. That is 10 say
heaven on earth has been es,ab-
lished for the few aud literal hell
for the many.
The new religion-henven for
the masses and hell for the classes
will do much TO usher in a new
civilization. And 1t is an encour.
aging sign to see such men as N.Y.
ron Reed aud Eugene Debs at
tracing the people toward them.
Heaven is not SO far off and hell is
not so near as the descendants Of
the Puritans have been taught to
believe. Good religion is a nice
thing to have in every family, but
bad religion is worse than more.

Tesla's method is briefly as fol-
lows: The suns rays pass through
glass windows and fall upon spe-
cially arranged mirrors, that re-
fleet the SUMS rays on a huge glass
cylinder, which is placed on an as
bestos stand and filled with water.
The water soon rises to such heat
that steam is thrown off in great
quantities. This is employed to
generate electricity, which will be
stored in power houses. Thus he
claims that during sunshiny days
all the electricity required for
power, light and heat can be gem
Grated and stored for use during
cloudy weather.
If his claims are realized, We
will enjoy the blessings of the
most important invention that has
leaped from the brain of inventive
genius, although it is naturally de-
pendent on the other marvellous
discovery and invention which this
wonderful age OF ours has contrib
uted to civilization.

TAXPAYERS, LOOK OUT.
The Old Ringsters are at the Front.

Gen. Bloomfield did not want to
be county attorney but he hadthe
honor thrust CD upon him. He
"gave an opinion" which pleased
the commissioners, and straight
way lie was elected at an increased
salary of $50 per month above
that of his predecessor. The gen.
erals opinion is that he can beat
Jesse Stephenson in the case re-
ferred to last Week.
1t now remains to be seen wheth-
er or not the general can make
good that "opinion." 1t may re-
quire n long time to wait-as the
general was never known to try q
case, in which the county was de-
fendant, unless forced to, when he
was formerly employed by the
county. If Bloomfield loses this
case he will be very expensive
luxury to the county.
This appointment wns the work
of Commissioner Clark who surely
cannot have forgotten the time
when Ed Richardson, in the pres
ence of hall full of people at
Monte Vista. proved by Bloom
fields own letters that while he
was pretending to act for the
county he wns in league with the
warrant traders of Denver to sell
out Rio Grande county and betray
the trust reposcd IN him by the
county. In those letters Bloom
field suggested that he could ham
die the Graphic and could get Mer-
riman-the weakest attorney in
the county-appointed TO ndvise
in county affairs when it, became
advisable. Mr.. Clark ought, also,
to remember the admonitions of
the Graphic about the time Mr..
Clark waa nominated last fall tina.
the warrant traders were alert in
the matter of commissioner-and
it must be admitted the editor ns
that paper knows his own people
more thoroughly than strangers do.
History records the fact that for
nearly year the Graphic was
handled" and Mr.. Merriman WAS
appointed adviser when policy die
ta,ed that appointment in the in-
terest OF the warrant holders. 1t
is also n historical fact that dur
ing Bloomield's former admins
tration-and by his advice-a debt
of $4,000 was saddled upon this
county, in the form of a judgment
in favor of the Western Farm
Mortgage Co., upon a class of war
rants that were barred by the con.
stitutional limitation.

things, but the taxpayers should
be warned to be on their guard

A safe rule TO be governed by
is, when man has once been con.

he should never again be placed
