such exact fits that no tailor here or

PREACHED POWERFUL SERMON.

DR.. f. w. Gunsaulus of Chicago
who lost nephew in the Iroquois
theatre disaster. preached powerful
on Sunday in which he urged more
practical interest by pastors and citi-
zens in municipal affairs. There is
considerable truth in his statement
that Our pulpits-mine with the
rest-have had too much to say about
the New Jerusalem and not enough
concerning the vital needs of Chica-
go. There is where much of the
blame for misgovernment, not only
in Chicago. but everywhere. must lie.
Public sentiment is to blame.''
said DR.. Gunsaulus. "We might put
the mayor. aldermen, the building
department. the theatre managers and
all the stage hands in prison, but
without permanent change in pub
lie sentiment we should accomplish
nothing. Don't blame the mayor and
the aldermen. Blame those that elect
them. Remove unsafe things. Do
not permit them to exist. 1 mean
not alone unsafe theatres-but unsafe
churches. unsafe officials. unsafe edu-
cation. unsafe politics.
1t isa pity so great disaster as that
of the Irouuois was necessary to wax
en- prominent pnlpit orators to a sense
OF their duty, but if they are awaken
ed and if they will keep on hitting
straight out from the shoulder after
the fashion inaugurated by DR.. Gun
aulus. the tragedy will not have been
in vain. Salt Lake Herald.

THE COUNTRY PRESS.

The members of the State Editorial
association which met in this city
yesterday consist chiefly of editors of
papers published outside the city
But while their publications may not
be so widely known as some others.
no intelligent man can be ignorant of
the powerful influence they exert and
the responsibility which rests upon
the men who conduct them.
In what is called the Country
press" lies III a large measure the
hone of the moral and material devel-
opment of state insofar as it depends
at all upon newspaper influence and
effort. This is especially true of
Young and growing state like Colora-
do, where but little more than the
foundations have been laid of the fu-
ture commonwealth. Colorado is in
formative condition. and it devolves
upon the editors of the papers that
have distinctly local circulation to
aid their readers in reaching right
conclusions concerning all matters
affecting the public welfare.
There is special need of a broad and
generous state spirit. demanding the
best for the whole state that can be
achieved and insisting that in all cas-
es the most worthy men in a commun-
ity be called to places of trust and
responsibility. Colorado should aim
at higher ideals in its polictical life
and a spirit should be cultivrvated
that would coudemn corruption in
politics and especially in elections
wherever it may appear.
In the development of such such
spirit the gentlemen who have met
as members of the editorial association
can accomplish much and this without
regard to their political affiliations
Purity in politcis and honest in admin
istration are not matters of PARTISAN
ship, but of common honesty and 10y
atty to the community and state in
which one may liev. Denver Repub-
