A Rare Relic,

A. H. Miller has in his possession,
and brought to our Office Tuesday for
our inspection, an heirloom, the poses-
sion of which would make glad the
heart of any collector of books. 1t is a
small volume entitled "An Apology for
the Bible,' edited by Rev. r. Watson.
professor of divinity in Cambridge
University, England, during the latter
part Of the 18th century. The book
was printed in Litchtleld, England,
in 1897, and is wonderfully well pre-
served, considering its age. Outside
of the series of letters it contains in
defense of the bible, as against the at
tacks Of Thomas Paine, which are
worth careful perusal by anyone. the
book has high value because OF its
antiquity. Mr.. Miller came into po-
session of the volume by inheri-
tance.

Editor Painter. of the Holyoke Her.
we recently made on the fusion admin
istrations OF the state, which have
brought the financial affairs to such q
low ebb that newspaper men are COM
PEELED to wait four Or five months, pos
sibly longer, for pay for publishing the
constitutional amendments. In his
criticism Mr.. Painter states that sim
liar things have happened under re-
publican administrations, and inti-
mates that had we been citizen Of
Colorado for longer time we
would have known of it. This may he
so, but we will have to be ''shown, -
although We did not hail from Mis-
souri,. Without such showing we re-
fuse to believe that the finances Of the
state were ever placed in such criti-
cal condition by any administration
that bore the stamp Of republicanism.

ado for long, it is true, but it is not
necessary for a person of ordinary in
telligeuce to live here long to become
cognizant Of the condition OF affairs
that exists in the state. He who runs
may read. We may be hidebound
partisan, but we thank fortune that
the tie is to party that represents
right principles, and not to a party
whose watchword is treason.
And when we stated that we shall
use our influence in future to promul-
gate the principles of the republican
party in Colorado we did so because
we believe that only through the agen-
cy Of that party can our great and
glorious state be placed in her proper
station in the union of states. In fol-
lowing this policy we are not actuated
by any hope of political preterment
Unlike our critic, Mr.. Painter, we do
not take up the fight Of any and every
political organization that will promise
US an office. The fusion party in Col
orado, the hybrid organization which
Mr.. Painter attempts to defend against
all attack, is on its last legs. Its days
are numbered. Never again can it
hope for victory at the polls. The
people have had enough of its mal-ad-
ministration. The last election, at
which our friend Painter "also ram"
was but starter. Two years hence
Colorado will be returned to the re-
publican fold. Then, and only then,
do we hope for change from the con-
dition of things which the editor of
the Herald so feebly defends.

G. M. BRAXTAN, Proprietor.
In recent issue Of the Holyoke

livers himself OF the following:
''The Julesburg Grit-Advocate re-
Gently published ding at District
Attorney Hays In which it insinuated
that he had been filing informations in
that county simply for the purpose Of
securing the fees. The editor of that
paper, owing to the fact that he has
been a resident Of the district but q
short time, may not be aware of the
fact that Mr.. Hays has made by far
the best record for economy chat has
ever been made in that office since the
district was organized. When his sue
cessor has made better record, then
criticisms upon Mr.. Hays record will
come with better grace from the edit
Or of the Grit-Advocats,."
The article was probably inspired by
a desire on the part Of Editor Painter
to defend ex-Diitrict Attorney Hays
from the charge of filing lnformations
in this county for the sole purpose Of
securing the fees, which charge was
made in an issue of the Grit-Advocate
under date of December IA. This de-
fense Of Mr.. Hays by Mr.. Painter is
probably ydeserved-from Mr.. Painters
standpoint. For it is well known
fact that Mr.. Hays worked hard for
the election of the editor Of the Her.
sid to the Office Of district Judge, and
although his efforts in this direction
were Intellectual, Mr.. Painter possibly
feels grateful for Mr.. Hays support.
Hence he appoints himself defender
Of that gentleman's past administra
tion of the Office of district attorney.
However the Herald's defense does
not defend. In the article mentioned
above we made no general charge
against the administration of Mr..
Hays. Our charge was specific and
referred to the last appearance in an
official capacity OF Mr.. Hays in Sedg-
wick county. At that time some twen-
ty-four informations for alleged viola
tions of the liquor law were filed by
Mr.. Hays. The majority Of these in
formations were filed against man
who had been fined in the police court,
who had paid his fine and who had
quit business entirely. At the time
the informations were filed against
this man he was confined to his bed by
sickness, with the chances Of his re-
covery very doubtful. Why were the
informations filed if not for the fees
they carried with them? 1t was not
at the instance of the temperance peo-
pie of Julesburg as, Mr.. Hays intimat-
ed. 1t was not because of Hays desire
to enforce the laws, for had. it been
for this reason the gentleman would
have filed his informations several
months earlier when it might have
been possible to prove his cases. Then
he was repeatedly asked to file such
informations, but being candidate
for reelection he doubtless feared the
loss of few votes should he attempt
to enforce the laws. No, it was for
neither of the reasons stated that Mr..
Hays filed the informations. 1t was
purely and simply for the fees in the
cases; it was a farewell grab at the
treasury of Sedgwick county, apd as
such it is acknowledged BY all citizens.
We have gone somewhat into detail in
defending our position, in order that
we might escape any charge of unfair-
ness, In doing 80 we hope that we

chall1 ana Ginger Diet.

I have known many instances of girls, in their foolish desire for ''gen- teer' paleness, eating dry rice and chalk, and refusing as much as possi- be flesh diet. Chalk certainly and
 probably rice eaten in excess in this way would tend indirectly to induce pallor by disarranging the digestive organs and obstructing the natural secretions of the body. Habitual con- stipation alone is frequent cause of anaemia. Half a century ago the plump and rosy-cheeked damsels of a Buckinghamshire village found that they, with their robust charms, were neglected by local swains, who favored pale and languishing maidens from the metropolis. To counteract this de- plorable tendency some of the girls endeavored to modify their rotundity and make themselves pale or fair by eating ginger. Others indulged in chalk and scraped slate pencil, and a few tried all three. They succeeded more or less in producing pallor and sickliness of appearance, but the young men were not attracted; and after one of the ginger chewers,'' as they were called, died, the practice happily declined.-Notes and Queries.

 On the lawn a large bonfire was built and here was roasted corn that was served with the supper which was served at an interval of dancing. 1t was a gay and pretty scene. The moonlight. the varied colored lanterns, the gIistening leaves and boughs on the walls of the barn and on the trees, and the dancing bonfire, made picture most delightful.
 Cams orchestra furnished music and sung coon songs with an effect that can be made ony by the natural black face.
