A, the annual communication

AT the annual communication OF
the grand lodge OF Colorado. A.
+. & A. NJ, held on the 10Th of
September, 1899, the committee
on the Washington Centennial
Memorial exercises reported gen.
eral order of exercises for the use
of subordinate lodges on their To-
cal observation of the occasion. 1t
was thought that local exercises
by Masonic lodges throughout the
country would be Of at least equal
effect as the national exercises at
Mount Vernon in attracting the at
tention of the present generation
to the virtues, patriotism, Masonic
and public services of Washington
and his compeers.
On the evening OF Thursday,
December 18th, Euclid lodge. No.
g., OF La Junta, will observe the
anniversary Of Washington's death
by holding public exercises at Ma
sonic hall, which the friends OF tie
order are cordially invited to at
tend. The exercises will include
the reading Of an account of WASH
ington's last illness from the diary
of his secretary, which includes an
account of Washington's Masonic
life, Washington's Farewell Ad-
Dress" an address on the personal
character and public services Of
Washington, ETC., interspersed
with music.

sen.lbIe Suggestion.

The Pueblo Chieftain makes a
timely suggestion in regard to
limiting the amount OF money can
didates may spend in campaign.
When the legislature passed law
reducing the salaries Of county Of
fcials, they should have given
some consideration to this kindred
proposition Of limiting the amounts
that may be expended by candi-
dates. Under the present law,
which places no limit upon the
amount, holding public Office in
Otero county is not private snap.
When the campaign expenses are
deducted, and the innumcrablc
public and private charities OF
which county officials are always
the legitimate prey, it will be
found that under the new law,
which goes into effect January ist,
officials in Otero county will not
receive more than ordinary clerk
hire. No one is obliged to expend
large sums OF money to retain a
good position in private life, and
the same conditions should pre-
vail in public life.

ossocar,c Party ~ o,ssspvr.

Many citizens of Otero county
who have visited various eastern
states during the past six months,
report wonderful change OF po-
litical sentiment among all classes
of people. The inclination to sup
port the administration Of Presi-
dent Mckinley "in party sense,
as well as in a sense of duty that
every American citizen owes to the
government under which he lives, :"
seems to be practically unanimous,
or at least is so much in evidence
that the sojourner from the wild
and woody west is forcibly i'm
pressed with the fact OF its exist
ence on all sides.
A Wisconsin editor, who IS
achieving fame and fortune by di-
recting the destinies OF three news
papers in Monroe county, has
grown tired, OF the do-nothing non
descript policy OF the democracy,
and in a recent issue announces
that he will henceforth support
President Mckinley in party
sense, "as well~as in a sense OF
duty that every American citi-
zen owes to the government under
which he lives" The annuonce-
ment is published in all three
newspapers and the reasons given
by lifelong democrat for making
such radical change will prove
very interesting reading to many
who may be seriously considering
taking similar action. The editor
ial is as follows:
at is but short SHIFT from the
democratic to the republican fold.
and why' Simply because the
leaders of the former have adopted
a vacillating, nondescript policy
that holds to nothing, accomplishes
nothing, and when in power
amounts to nothing for the sturdy,
old-timc supporters Of the party
when it was in its pristine power
and strength. To prove this one
only has to revert to the period OF
its last administration, when with
its full control it made such eyre
gious blunders as the Wilson tariff
make-shift bill, the bond issuing
and the docile policy OF the admin
istration in reference to Cuba.
Ever resonant in platform pledges,
only to pass into "innocuous deseu-
tudc" when the victory had been
won and the opportunity to test
the correctness of the policies that
had presented themselves to those
in power. These things of them
selves were enough to make the
road easy, but when the republi
cans were going over the way trod
by modern democracy and were
picking up 'lost opportunities" by
such adaptions as Blaine's splen-
did reciprocity, the humane and
patriotic aid OF the Cubans, and
later, the placing OF the United
States squarely into the column Of
the worlds nations by the Philip
pine policy, then it was that one
could find no difficulty in passing
from one to the other.
Like many another democrat we
tarried yet a little, but when the
populists who secured temporary
control were made the permanent
managers, and when Organism and
a policy that had been overwhelm-
ingly condemned at the polls were
still thrust upon n suffering, dis
membered party, and when, with
unblushing effrontery, leaders ut
tered such words and took such
action as bordered upon treason,
the ways parted and we no longer
La Junta tribune., 1899-12-09

followed the party name, stolen by
the new mongrel crowd Of uncanny
democrats and refugees OF pop
ulism, and all the other isms and
dangerous tenets OF this later polit-
ical age"

COUNTY SUPT. TRUST. This is
the year of Republican trusts of all
kinds. Wednesday the Indianapo-
lis Sentinel says a trust has been
formed by the County Superintend
ents of northern Indiana to keep
themselves in office. The acts OF
the last Legislature provide that
County superintendent must hold
a three years license to teach to be
eligible, but it exempts present in
cumbents of that office. The Atty
General has given an opinion that
persons holding an exemption IL
cense under the license law, are not
eligible for election. 1t is now as
serted that the members of the
Supt's. Trust agreed they would is
sue no SO months license till after
the election-no matter how we'll
the applicant answers examination
questions-in order to head off all
opposition candidates, and necessi-
tate their own reelection. Rather a
sharp scheme, but entirely discred
liable to participants.
