The Denver papers are certainly
doing all in their power to prolong
the strikes. the discord and dissen-
ton between capital and labor.
and for what? They know, if they
know anything. that they are
hurting the States credit, are
driving away new investors, are
dissatisfying those with money al
ready tied up here, and in time
this same agitation will cut off a
goodly portion of their own reve-
nues. On the other hand, if they
would tell the truth or say no.
thing, if they would combine and
recommend arbitration-justice to
capital and justice to labor, equal
rights to all-and keep at it with
the same persistence they have in
lying about-the situation and in a
round about way causing discord, !,
the labor troubles which now exist
would soon be settled and Colorado
would soon take her old time pos
ition as the leader of all in point Of
enterprise, in production and in all
that goes to make up prosperous
happy and satisfied people. The
metropolitan press. with its desire
for sensation, has much to do with
the unsettled condition of affairs.

You say this is bad time for the
people to combat a coal strike
just at the beginning of the cold
weather. Very true, but equally
bad for the striking miners to be
without employment. That $500
a week strike money will soon
begin to look mighty small when
compared to the $Ioo to $Iso
monthly salary to which some OF
the boys have been accustomed.
1t begins to look as though if there
was any one thing which the work.
ing man doesn't know it is when
he is well off. The absolute folly
Of a sympathetic strike it thorough
ly exemplified in Cripple Creek.
Meyer whose business il was to
produce strikes could not get the
Cripple Creek miners out when
he tried it last spring for the simple
reason that they had no grievance
and were satisfied. Then he
worked a scheme by which he
could declare the smelters 'unfair"
and then forced the miners to strike
out of sympathy for the millmen.
Did the millmen appreciate it, Did
they Today they are taking the
place of the striking miners who
are trying to get the wrinkles out
of their stomachs by patronizing
free lunch counters.-Glenwood

The amount of money i'll circu.

s., 397 900. 900 which is the larg.
est in the history of the country
In 1896 the figures were 81, 5o6,.
600, 600. which shows an increase
of money in circulation of over 50
per cent. in seven years. This is
directly due to the enormous pro-
duction OF our mines.

New Ssylnks Of Christ Discovered
In Egypt.

Many hitherto unknown sayings
Of Jesus Christ have been disoov-
cred in Egypt by Psychologists who
have dug up papyri. buried since
the I'd century. 100 miles south of
Cairo.
DR.. Bernard 2. Grenfell, who
has been engaged in Egyptian ex-
cavations since 1894, at the gen.
eral meeting of the Egypt explor-
alton fund. has just given the fol-
lowing details: Accompanied by
DR.. Hunt, DR.. Grenfell found a
rich ptolemaic metropolis at Elhi-
beh. The bulk of the documents
from one mound consisted of col
lection of sayings of Jesus. They
are all introduced with the words
"Jesus saith and for the most
part are new. The ends of the
lines, unfortunately, are often OBJ
liberated. Apparently all the say
ings we're addressed to St. Thorn
as. One of the most remarkable
is:
LET not him that seeketh cease
from his search until he find. and
when he finds he shall wonder;
wondering he shall reach the
kingdom, i. e. the kingdom of
Heaven, and when he reaches the
kingdom he shall have rest"
DIR. Grenfell remarked that en-
ormous interest would be aroused
by the discovery. on account Of
the variations they disclosed from
accepted texts.

The only way to put stop to
the fraudulent voting in Denver
is to throw out the entire vote oi
that city until the election thieves
stop their stealing of elections. A
gentleman from Denver said this
week that in one precinct, the
famous BILLY Green" voting
place, parties stood across the
street all day and kept close count
Of every person entering the pol.
ling place and there were less than
900 went in and out during the
voting hours. Some may have
went in more than once and some
may not have voted, but the pre-.
cinct returned rs votes. all but
about a dozen for Judge Wilson.
Everything must move smoothly
and rapidly in order to deposit one
vote every two minutes under the
Colorado system. The polls are
open twelve hours, 20 minutes,
from which it will appear how
smoothly things worked in this
precinct. And there were others
just the same.-Telluride Jour.

we must return to his childhood. which abound

While at Moulins he caught glimpse of the

ever after retained a vivid recollection of his

feeling of hatred and contempt engendered be

Coming in solemn beauty like slow old tunes

I have seen the lady April bringing the daffO-

Bringing the sprnging grass and the soft
warm April rain.
1 have heard the song of the blossoms. and the
old old chant of the sea,
And seen strange lands from under the arched
white sails of ships.
