the power-and we believe they
will use ito reinstate the
field that has been made the
bed Of thorns by some who have
been prone to plant the bush.
There are a few matters not at
all to our liking, aud these, it
should be noted, we must en-
deavor to alter. But the grum-
bier and pessimist cannot con
tribute at all to the improve
ment. The grumbler's business
is just to breed discomfort. and
be himself is one Of the things
to be rid Of. a modicum of op-
tinism is the only thing for
Canyon City people. In other
words, we must hope for the
best, looking ahead to brighter
days, which are sure to dawn
for our town.
"Wise to resolve and patient
10 perform. We as citizens,
should feel that it was wise on
the part Of our trustees to await
the action of the Association
and that it now behooves us to
"patiently perform the task of
awaiting 4 reinstatement. In
the meantime everything that
can possibly avail our cause in
the minds of the people will be
brought to heroic relief.
1t is far from our desire to
create within our readers hope
that is destined to be dashed
with despair, for it is best to
hope only for things possible
and probable. We say that
this fond hope is possible and
not altogether i,nproba BILE. But
our industry must go along with
our hopes, for hope without &C
ton is a barren undoer. How
are we to act? Let US as a unit,
employ every conceivable meth
Cd that is honorable, by using
the ennobling virtues OF humility
and modesty, and yet with all
candor, to instillin the minds of
people in the outside world our
prosecuted condition, not that
we may gain the pity of grow
cling few, but that we may en-
list the sympathy Of those who
love fair play between men.
Let US exhibit the mildest man
ners with the braveSt mind.
There are brighter days ahead.

through its representatives.
decreeing, we certainly have it
yet and the only open method
to pursue is TO await the action
of said Association.
After a careful study of this
question from every view point,
we can see no reason why the
Association will not declare
that the commits sion Of 81 men
which were officially. chosen for
locating a college for the Plains,
transcribed the authority for
which they were created when
they devised a plan to establish
two colleges in a territory in
sutTera bly, incapable Of furnish
ing support for two institutions.
This is as plain path of duty
for a righteous body Of men rs
the nose on a mans face. 70
deviate one jot or title from
this course of Justice would be
to declare that they, as united
association of Baptists were
wholly incapable of making a
contract to which they would
abide. In event that the latter
course is pursued it then stands
to reason that we never had a
college, for the power that gave
us the college were irresponsi-
BILE in the creation Of one. "Are
they as conservative Baptists of
the Paloduro Association going
to stand by the contract made
by their commission with Can
yon City at CLAUDE" This is the
question asked by many. We
haven't 'anything up our
sleeve" in this matter, but we
have as much reason to believe
that the Baptists will rally to
the standard of honor as any
other denomination of whatever
sect it may be. We have their
word Cor it and will cherish the
belief OF their veracity until it
is proven otherwise. This is all
anyone can do. There's a tre-
mendous amount of nonsense in
the expressions often heard
these days concerning rotten
ness in the core of things. The
poor old body polite comes in
for a vast amount of SANDER.
In reality if it were half as sick
as some of its doctors diagnose
it to be it would be dead and in
sufferably delayed beyond bury
ing time. There is not the
slightest wisdom in asserting
that because some few have
gone astray in this matter and
have obStructed the sacred de-
signs of a God fearing people,
that the whole plan of building
a college which will be the pride
of the Plains, goes down in ig-
noble defeat.
One great institution OF learn
ing, which has been the fondest
hope of the Baptists of the
Plains for so long time, the
PRONUNCIATION of which desire
was the action of this Associa
tion in establishing seat of
learning in Canyon City, has yet

STAR OF HOPE
FOR Canyon CITY.
1t Has Not Been Determined
Yet That Canyon City Is
Not to Have The Only
Baptist College.
81 BUD AGAIN."
In Spite OF The Fact That
Some Have Placed Their
Heel Oh the Young
Flower, "It May
yet bud again" "

There is in the lore and among
the traditions Of Scotland the
pretty story that Sir William
Wallace, upon receiving note
from his deyoted lieutenant, Sir
Eustauce Maxwell, in which
was expressed the hope that
the tree planted by Wallace at
Dumbarton, and which was an
appropriate metaphor for Wal
lace's successful feat in the
storming of the castle, might
not be blasted, promptly drew
his dagger, and using it for a
pen engraved the single word,
"Reviesco," on his gauntlet as
his answer to Maxwell. That
word, meaning II bud again, "
is the motto of the MaXwell's to
this day. 1t is inspiring and
full of cheer.
The College statement which
appeared in last weeks News
duly signed by the working
quorum" of the Baptist College
trustees, setting forth the dis
advantages to which we are
subjected in the construction OF
the college, and pinning their
faith and hope in justice being
meted out by the Paloduro AS
sociation, which convenes at
Hereford, beginning Thursday
before the 4th Sunday in July,
1904, is, in the opinion of
the News, the only visible solu
ton to the now intricate prob
lem.
Though the action of the trus.
tees, as noted above, temporari-
ly suspends the cherished hope
and ambition Of our people for
the speedy erection Of College,
the sun that will nourish this
budded hope may yet rise to its
meridian; it may yet spring
from the gloom of defeat full
panoplied and ready for victory.
Who knows? At least such a
hope tells the feeling that stirs
in the heart of every devotee at
the shrine of justice. Though
it is an uninviting situation, this
Star of hope is nevertheless
pleasing panorama that is held
out for the view of every oppo-
nent of the college at Canyon
City. Our little town has had
it's trials and its woes like the
great Wallace who finally liber
ated Scotland from the yoke of
English tyranny, and, like that
illustrious character, it may not
remain crushed.
That the progress of the col
lege made possible by the Asso-
citation having delegated author
ity to 81 men to establish one
at Canyon City, has been retard-
ed in the incipiency of its con-
struction by adverse conditions
that now confront us, everyone
who is acquainted with the stu
alton will concede. Whom then,
should we look to for'redress of
our wrongs? Surely the power
that gave, it only, could have
the power to reinstate. To
make this point clearer in the
minds of all we will use an eX
preston of w. II. Younger,
which was made in the bearing
of the News editor: "If we ever
had a college, WE HAVE IT
YET" This is the whole thing
in a nutshell. If it was ever
made possible for Canyon City
to have 4 Baptist College by

and the church which has sheltered and
fostered the faith of their own land, they
find the Russian language, in which the
church services are now conducted. a de-
cided impediment in the way of proper
and beneficial appreciation of the good
Bishops ministra tons.
With the end in view of establishing a
Greek church, presided over by Greek
priests, whose language they understand,
some of the most prominent people in the
local Greek colony have formed them
selves into an associati ton. The sum of
$500 has been subscribed and is now in
the hands of seven trustees. TO whom has
been intrusted the work of securing suf-
ficient funds to carry out the project.
The church-going population of the To-
cal Greek colony is estimated at 2000.
About one-tenth of these have contributed
to the fund and the trustees will see to il
that every one of their countrymen will
have an opportunity to do his share
toward the new church.
The trustees were appointed at a meet
ing of the society held last Sunday night
at Druids' Hall. They are NJ ID. Van
wales, N Damiana1es, A. Kosta. John
Trayforos, c. Demitrak, John Cupsimales
and c. Camarinos.

ORNATE RITUAL
MARKS SERVICE
Christmas Festival Cele-
brated at Russian
Church.

With candles incense and all of the
elaborate and ornate service of the
Orthodox Greek and Russian Church,
Bishop l. Tikhon the highest dignitary
of mis- creed in America, celebrated yes
terday at the Greek church on Powell
street the high mass of Christmastde.
According to the Gregorian calendar,
which obtains throughout the whole Rus
sian empire, this festival rightly falls
upon the thirteenth day after December
25 all other calendars to the contrary not
withstanding, and as the true birthday
of Christ it was celebrated with great
pomp.
At promptly 10 o'clock in the morning
the bells in the minaret over the quaint,
old church began to sound. Within there
began a ceremony which for richness of
color, impressive symbolism and elabo-
rateness of detail cannot be equaled out
side of a Muscovitic church.
Bishop Tikhon first entered the body Of
the church unaccompanied and after him
came in order of rank Father Sebastian,
his assistant; the Very Rev. S. Dabovich.
priest of the church; Rev. T. Pashkovsky
and Rev. Peter Popoff. The Bishop was
clad in the blue silk gown of the Order
of the Blank Monks and as he paused at
the church door a rich robe of silver
cloth, with gold ENDORSEMENTS, was
thrown over MS SnOulQerS ana a stole,
crusted with gold, was added.
Mounting a dais in the center Of the
church, the Bishop washed his hands and
combed his long hair to signify his purifi-
cation before delivering the holy sacra-
ment Then was placed upon his head a
marvelously wrought golden miter spark
ling with rich settings of gems.
Meanwhile the vested choir ehanted in
Russian and in Greek the "Kyrie," their
heavy voices sounding in powerful unison.
The Bishop advanced before the holy
door of the sacred sanctuary, and there
lighting two candelabra, blessed the peo-
pie with sweeping signs of his hands. sig
nifying the six wings of Cherubim and
Seraphim.
After retiring within the sacred sane
tuary, where he sprinkled the ikons or
holy paintings, with incense, the Bishop
administered the holy sacrament, first
to his subordinate priests and then to the
congregation. Babes in arms partook for
the first time of the patton, sopped in
wine, the mouth of all the participants
being duly wiped after the sacrament by
a deacon in attendance.
The high dignitary then mounted the
deacons and priests came to kiss his
premacy, which is deemed equal to that
read in Slavic and English and Father
Dabovich preached the Christmas sermon.
