THREATENED DISASTER.

Again the matter of the removal
of the f. & @. G. terminus from
this place to Canon City confronts
the people of Florence, and this
time there can be no question as
to the gravity of the situation.
1t is not good policy at any
time to be governed by vain ina
ginations, and to see evil in every
timing; but, there are times when
threatened calamities must be
looked squarely in the face and
every energy be bent to avert the
disaster.
The people should realize that
such condition is now present,
The matter apparently hinges
on the question as to whether
Florence cannot offer as great in
ducements for the retention of the
shops at this place as Canon can
for their removal to our sister city
If the business men and financial
men of the city will awaken to a
full realization of all this proposed
change portends for Florence,
they will rally to the support of
such measures as are necessary to
abort the proposition. The time

THE ARID LAND QUESTION

la commenting on the work oi
the Trans-Mississippi congress at
its recent meeting in Wichita, the
Denver Post endorses the cession
of the arid lands by the federal
government to the several states
and territories within whose
boundaries these lands may lie.
1t says that this is to be regarded
as the first step in the direction of
bringing these lands to individual
settlement. The next step will be
the construction of storage reser-
voirs. While it will no doubt be
left to the severel states to ma Ike
these selections, they in turn con
ferring among themselves wherever
such reservoirs are to be construct
ed near the state lines, the federal
government will be asked to assist
in the construction. The funds
necessary for this work must be
advanced by the national govern
ment, which shares equally with
the states in making these arid
plains fit for habitation. The in
crease in population as we'll as in
production from these lands will
benefit the national government
no less than it does the states. 1t
is therefore but proper that the
federal government should bear its
Just share in the expense connected
with opening up to cultivation this
vast stretch of arid land.

they now go to England, Scotlal d

DR.. Slocum dwelt at length up
on the true meaning of life. He
impressed upon his hearers larger
conception of life than that based
on days, or months, or years alone.
He said, "life is measured not by
longevity, but by the power to
think a noble thought" :" Life
should also be measured by pas
sion. Not by base passion. but
by love of home, love of humanity,
love of country, and by the deepest
of all passion, love of God
1t was with such sentiments as
these that the entire discourse
abounded. 1t was calculated to
instill hope and create lofty aspir-
ations, and the applause which
followed showed that it was thor
oughly app eciated by the entire
audience.
After another chorus by the glee
club, Prof. Clark presented the di-

are above the mesa are the great
storehouses of the treasures of the
earth, so might the class of 80
conquer the mountains which are
before them, and secure for them
selves the most precious gems OF
knowledge and intellectual attain
ment.
Prof. Clark then announced the
glee club, but before they could
respond, Blake Rogers, of the class
of '00, advanced and, in behalf OF
the class of '99, presented Mr..
Clark with large bouquet of flow
