1t may or may not be true that it was
Rossetti who urged Burne-Jones, when
at the outset of his career, to connect
with hypheu "Burne" and Zones, :"
says William Sharp in The Atlantic,
Jones is nobody" Rossetti would
declare, 'only particle of vast mul.
tiple But Burne-Jones-thati is unmis
taknblei"
1t was an amusing trait in Rossetti
that he was wont TO designate the good
work of this or that friend as the work
of-and he would mention the most
distinctive name or part name of tho
person concerned. Thus he would say,
"Yes, that is Burne-Jones. but this.
this here, you know, is only Jones, or
"That now is the real Holman Hunt,
but this here is only Hunt" or. lyon
can hear Tennyson in that, but Alfred
wrote the other lines"
recall two amusing instances where
Burne-Jones more or less unoonsciously
adopted the same method. He was asked
once il he thought William Bell Scott
more eminent as u poet or us an artist.
81 never thought very highly of Bell. !"
he replied. Then, seeing look of sur.
prise, added, with humorous twinkle,
II liked old Bell Scott-old Sootus, as
we always called bim-immensely, and
think William Bell Scott wrote some
very fine verse, but always thought it
was pity that Bell took to paintingl"
The other instance occurred when
some one remarked to him that Par
nell was only an agitntor." "Charles
Stewart Parnell," he replied with en-
phasis, twas one of the greatest public
men of our day and far and away tho
ablest Irish leader. "But Parnell,
etc., resumed the objector, to be again
corrected by the other disputant.

If ANY other argument were needed
to prove that Canon City is one of the
most prosperous cities Of the Great
West. the RECORD would cite the
happy, contented condition Of its
suburban constituency. There is not
a more well-to-do class of people to be
found anywhere than those who have
given their attention to gardening
and fruit raising in this vicinity.
There are exceptions to the rule of
course, but the majority viii be found
in comfortable circumstances, enjoy
ing all the necessaries and many of
the luxuries Of life. Then look at our
merchants. Can you point out town
where as many new men have estab-
lished themselves with as few failures!
Where, let us ask, is there another
city Of its size with as small list Of
failures since the crash Of '93 a.
Canon City can show! There are
non east or west north or south.
Canon City stands without peer.

GOSPEL.

In. Stevens is known the state
over as a politician and leader in the
silver movement He has said many
things that would hardly bear investi-
cation, but the following statements
made recently to a Times reporter
are as true as gospel and should be
given some weight: Colorado should
quit the advocacy Of all heresies of
all kinds and settle right down to
business.
They can stand by their convic-
tons on the money question but should
do it in a strong dignified way.
The only agitation We should have
in Colorado the year around should
be an agitation in favor Of the state
and its material development

Our of curisoty, q representative
of the DAILY RECORD has been max
ing inquiries of the real esta men of
the city, and tie fact is disclosed that
since the first of January. 1898, near
ly two hundred thousand dollars
worth Of real estate has changed
hands. These deals all range be-
tween FIVE hundred and FIVE thousand
dollars (most Of them under fifteen
hundred dollars), SO it will be seen
that a good deal of property has
been disposed Of. Four firms in the
city that we know of, have each done
business of over thirty thousand
dollars in this line. Oh. yesl Canon

action of cabal of Denver politions
in stealing the livery Of heaven to

the silver forces of Colorado should
unite on one state ticket on the silver
question, is mere pretense, false in
conception and false in detail, and is
put forth to hide a wicked Interior

Colorado stands on the silver question

its fealty to the white metal are al

TO BE GIVEN AWAY.
A Handsome Cleveland Wheel to the
Most Popular Young Lady
of Canon.

The RECORD has purchased of Mr..
F. E. Thomas, the bicycle man, one of
his finest high grade Cleveland wheels.
In common bicycle parlance, the wheel
is dandy and is one that any young
lady in Canon would be proud to own
After tomorrow it may be seen on ex-
hibition in Mr.. Thomas bicycle store.
This wheel we propose to give
away to the most popular young lady
in Canon absolutely free of charge or
condition. She need not even be a
friend or subscriber of the RECORD.
the only requisite to possess this
handsome wheel being a plurality
vote in the contest we are now insti-
tuting.
Votes may be had in two ways:
FlRsT-In each issue of the daily
and weekly RECORD Will be printed a
coupon good for one vote These
. eaippsd azd voted at .p,sasurs-
SEcoSD-To every receipt given
for money collected on the weekly
RECORD subscription will be attached
a coupon good for 20 votes for every
dollar paid.
The contest will be continued five
weeks, closing with the issue of Mon
day evening, September 18th Now
let someone come forward and suggest
some young ladies for the prize. We
nominate the lady clerks of Canon.
As a. consolation prize to the one
having thei next highest number of
votes, We have arranged for two
months free use of a wheel at
Thomas Bicycle Store. This privilege

something worth working for.

This alone is worth several dollars to
any girl who rides, and if she don't
happen to ride it will be a magnificent
chance to learn on somebody elses

Some have asked what age limit we
put on the term young LADY, The
question is a hard one and We have
decided to be liberal in the matter,
letting the class include all ladies not
married. The question of age of a
lady is delicate one to handle
ANY young lady who is resident of
Canon, South Canon Or suburban vi

Names of candidates should be sent
in now so that all will stand an equal
show. Following are some letters we
have received:

worth Of real estate, mostly all new
land and tributary to this ditch.
When you stop to consider that there
are twelve or fourteen other firms

line Of business in Canon City 1t will
give you some idea of the advance
ment being made in this section Of
the Arkansas valley, besides proving
the RECORDS assertion that this is one
Of the most prosperous cities in the

It is interesting to note the devel-
opment Of a kindlier feeling over the
state toward the administration. Many
papers that year ago branded all
who declined to vote for Mr.. Bryan
as traitors and enemies to the state,
are now speaking words of praise in
honest, liberal terms for the national
administration. Some formerly popu-
listic and semi-populistic papers are
already showing by their editorial
columns that they are not what they
used to be-and that they viii still
grow better. One of these papers
that is interesting us just now is the
Aspen Daily Times. national silver
paper, Published in silver camp by
Mr.. B. Clark Wheeler, favorite SON.
in-law of Ex-Governor Waite. We
are not yet prepared to say that Mr..
Wheeler is coming over but we
are glad to see that he is of an inves-
tigating turn of mind and we are per-
suaded that he who seeks the light
will find-it.
In recent issue replying to sling
from neighbor paper suggesting
that he had Joined the administration
party, Mr.. Wheeler has this to say:
He seems to have overlooked the
fact of our having been of the national
delegates who, IN: Senator Jones,
Congressman Towne, Coin" Harvey
and others who organized the national
silver party whose members are
pledged to aid the candidates of the
party that can and is likely to do the
most for silver. He seems to disre-
member the fact that we are the
only member of the state senate who
was elected as a national silver party
man without the Endorsement Of any
of the demo-pop-silver rep. aggrega-
tion. II we should conclude that the
administration party is the only party
that stands ghost of a show to con-
tinue in power, it would be necessary
to invade the ranks of that party with
men who would embrace every oppor-
tunity to do something for silver. 1t
is now our opinion that national ex-
pansion Of territory, commerce, naval
extension, and vigorous development
under proper tariff regulations will
help rehabilitate silver to its rightful
position. more than any other agency.
Many Of the democratic leaders are
opposed to this policy. The silver
republican and populist parties are
side issues of waning dinness and inn
hence the national silver
ties may conclude to storm the sac
red precincts Of the administration
ranks TO accomplish the desired OBJ
ject for monetary expansion As yet
we are looking on and sizing up the
new alignments now crystallizing.v

IT Is pleasing to note that Neigh
bor Florence, ever progressive and

out the carly closing system. Her

that twelve hours is enough for a

little can be gained by the long day
