Colorado Republicans can well
hope for success this year. From
all parts of the state come reports
of a revolt of thousands of voters
who have been enticed by fusion
during the past few years. They
have become disguised with the
men and the parties they have been
looking to for relief and are ready
to turn once more to the party of
progress and American ideas. Ex-
Governor Eaton stated the matter
in the right light when he declared
that while the people of Colorado
had not departed from their ideas
on the silver question, they stood
with the administration on the
question of expansion, and on this
issue the Republican party will
win. The problems resultant from
the war will be the leading ones in
the coming campaign, and on these
the Republican party of Colorado
can score victory.

Senator McEnery, of La, differs
from his party colleagues in his
opinion of the war in the Philip
pines. He said, in speech, this
week: II do not stop to inquire
now whether my country in the
Philippines is right or not; [ do
not inquire who fired the first shot
which precipitated hostilities. 1t
is enough for me to know that my
government has been assailed, and
[ will uphold it's hands until its
enemies have been brought into
subjection."

In private session, the Episcopal
clergy of Boston was recently adj
dressed by President Eliot, and
now the Rev. Mr.. Frisby a high
church Episcopal clergyman, re-
Dukes the clergy in question for
inviting a Unitarian to express
himself before them. "They have
offered" he says, "a gratuitous in
suit to their divine Master in thus
calling in the unbeliever to in
struct them" All this censure
was given vent simply because the
Unitarian told them he didn't care
for their liturgy and said that he
thought their prayer-book needed
amending. No; it is feet there
isnever any peace, in the church
or out of it, even during the es-
pecial period of good will toward
men.

Two most deplorable crimes in
Colorado have recently proclaimed
to the people of the United States
that the law of the state is not re-
garded 10y our citizens as adequate
for all circumstances which may
arise, and that Colorado is one of
the states where law is not su-
preme. The whole train of events
indicated light estimation of the
seriousness of the taking of human
life, and contempt for the ex-
treme penalty provided by the
state law. No condition or defect
of the law can justify lynching;
nothing can excuse murder. But
involved in the responsibility for
both murder and lynching are the
Legislators and voters who are com
mitting Colorado to an experiment
that tho experience of mankind
has demonstrated to be a failure,

Culture.

Culture is a habit of mind, a
mental process that wide reading
and the memorizing of many facts
and dates does not necessarily be-
get. In general way, culture
may be defined rs an acquired
illumination enabling its possessor
to distinguish between the eternal
and the ephemeral, between the
significant and the irrelevant. True
culture carries one into the realms
of art, literature, science and social
life with a calm, judicial, sympa-
thetic mind that is not clouded by
feverish striving to know little
about 4 great many things or a
great deal about little things.
Culture is to mental activity what
real literature is to the printing
press. AS n nation we have great
mental activity, but too little cul-
ture. We print an enormous num-
Der of newspapers, but not a great
many permanent good books. We
are inclined to forget that one
thought that clarifies our mental
vision is worth a Thousand unre-
lated facts, that one step toward
real culture is more to be desired
than a whole cycle of afternoon
teas. We should learn to give to
the book and to the newspaper
their appropriate places in our
daily lives. To him who reads
books worth the reading the daily
chronicle of contemporary events
gains a new interest. Today's
newspaper, if you have read his
tory Alright, becomes not mere
tumble of more or less interesting
gossip, but a page in the diary of
the human race, voyaging it knows
not whittier through wondrous seas.
We should gain from great books
that enlightenment which shall
enablesus to give to the crude de-
tails in today's news-columns their
comparative significance; to make,
as it were, the annals of the mo-
ment submit themselves to the
whole recorded course of human
history. When one has gained
this power, acquired culture thut
unerringly separates the eternal
from the ephemernl, the significant
from the irrelevant, then does the
library seem more wonderful be-
cause of the newspaper, and the
newspaper thing to be read be-
cause of the library.

Pernicious Journalism.

The Peoples Champion, leader
of the obstructionist element of this
county, which has become noted
for its opposition to the develop
ment and progression of the COM
munity, some time ago contained
an article in relation to the insur-
ance at the Crested Butte mine, in
which that paper claimed that the
insurance scheme was to be forced
upon the men regardless. The
PILOT promptly denied that any
force was to be applied, because we
did not believe the Colorado Fuel
q Iron company would use such
methods toward its employees, and
in addition we noted that the in
surance plan had been dropped at
the local mine. The Champion,
in its all-knowing wisdom, at once
reiterated that the insurance would
be forced upon the men in "con-
venient season when the company
can stand a strike" The PILOT
then secured a statement from one
of the prominent general officers of
the company, the sum and sub
stance of which was, that the COM
pany does not require their men to
insure anywhere, although it pre-
fers that they should, as it is a
good thing for them, and at many
of the G. f. & l. Co., mines as well
as at nearly all metalliferous mines
and smelters in the state, such in
surance is carried. At few places
some of the men object, and in
such cases it is not in force. Such
was the case at Crested Butte and
the insurance was discontinued,
and will not be put in unless the
men want it. If they never want
it, it will never be put in. At two
of the mines where men were kill
ed under circumstances which gave
them no claim against the COM
pany, their widows received in a
few days from the insurance cm-
pany $500 and $500 each, very
much to the relief of their families.
At these places the benefits have
been so apparent that the men
could not now be persuaded to go
without insurance. This is a state
ment of facts from authority, and
we opine that the Champions usual
baseless agitations will not cut any
figure with sensible people.

Secretary Gage deserves the
praise Of the miners and all people,
who believe in the beneficent effect
of the increased use of silver, for
his proposition before the house
committee on coinage, weights and
measures. The Secretary pointed
out that the present demand for
fractional coin was SO urgent that
the issue ran considerably beyond
the fifty millions authorized by
law, and he recommended that this
legal restriction be repealed, .1eav-
ing the treasury to determine the
proportion of fractional coin neces-
sary. 1t is at least fair to presume
that Mr.. Gage believes in en-
larging the issue to the full require
ments of business.

name from famous but very eccentric
physician and surgeon who practiced in

superintendent John Owen has had
charge of all the company's property
here since its organization some six
months ago, when the Amy c. and
F'reighter's Friend groups were pur-
chased. He has been diligently sinking
the shaft on the Freighter's Friend to
prove up on the big lode which was
struck in the Newhouse shortly after
that time, and which many predict will
prove to be the vein of the Freighters
Friend. Mr.. Owen has had charge of
many properties in this district and his
careful and economic management has
always achieved success where success
was possible. 1t can be truthfully said
of him that in all the extensive mining
operations in which he has engaged
here he has paid every dollar of his obli-
cations.
"In this connection we are pleased to
state that Lombard Williams, president
OF the company, together with his bro
ther, Gibson T. Williams, and Superin-
tendent John Owen, have lately pur-
chased the Veto and Grand Trunk lodes,
adjacent to the Amy c. group. They
are also under the management Of Mr..
Owen. The ore from the Veto runs
from 500 to $500 per ton and is all

THE TOPEKA MINE LITIGATION.

1t was limited some time ago that the
litigation over the sale of the Topeka
mine, would probably be adjusted with
out resortiDg to the courts. The follow
ing from the Rocky Mountain News of
yesterday, shows that the case is now
beforelthe Federal Court in that city.
The Nsws says that arguments will be
heard Monday by Judge Hallett in the
United States district court involving
title to the Topeka group OF mines in the
Russell district Of Gilpin county. Arthur
j. and Jennie II. Richardson are the
plaintiffs, and Henry p. Lowe and Tyson
S. Dimes are defendents. The claim is
made that the Topeka group was sold
for $685. 900 with sl65,O0O paid down by
the plaintiffs in October 1899, and that
the mines have proved worthless.
A cross bill AYERS that the sum of 5l62,-
600 with interest at 10 per cent is due
the defendents by the plaintiffs.
Conspiracy is charged by the Richard
sons in that reports on the property
made by such experts as Professor Lake
and j. Parrish are allerged to be fraud
ulent and that one Townsend, also named
as defendant, was concerned in the
conspiracy, giving, as allerged, bogus
check for $4,000 for quarter interest
in the mines.
The dumurrer to the complaint, upon
which arguments were made, was not
determined Tuesday.

Nine cords of stamp mill ore from the
Bonanza tunnel workings in Chase
gulca, treated at the Gilpin stamp mill,
in addition to yielding SO ounces of gold,
turned out II tons and 1,l00 pounds of
tailings which netted at the sampling
works in Black Hawk S15.s5 per ton.
Il. NJ. Steele has sold to the Gettys-
bury Mining, Development and Milling
Company the Gettysburg group of mines
in Central mining district. The shaft
on the Gettysburg has attained depth
OF nearly 200 feet. At that depth levels
will be driven both ways from the shaft.
Otto Scheffler and his associates on
the Ontonagon lode. German mountain,
are now breaking stamp mill ore. which
is being shipped to one of the Black
Hawk custom stamp mills. The Davis
whim which they placed on the shaft is
giving good satisfaction, is doing good
service, and is a great improvement over
the Cornish whim formerly in use at
that property.
Jones & Co., lessees have cleaned up
the ore they had broken in the Justice
mine in Lake Russell district, at the
time the property passed into the hands
of Denver and New England parties.

that Mr.. Thomas Irvine, who was in

remain at Idaho Springs and look after
