A Pioneer Preacher

Rev. Alexander NJ. barley of
Pueblo deliverd very fine sermon at
the Presbyterian church last Sunday
morning.
His subject was-"The General.
Special and Particular Salvation.
He put special emphasis ON the second
coming of Christ and the first resur
rection, saying, The Scripture hath it
that those guilty of murmuring. for
nication, covetousness and idolatry
shall have no part in the first resur
rection. He urged that the speedy
coming of Christ be longed for and
earnestly expected, and that the life
be in accord with the hope.
Reverend barley spoke with much
earnestness Nearly forty years ago
he built the first church on the western
slope, at Lake City, Colorado. For
twenty years he has worked among
the Mexicans in Colorado and New
Mexico, and is now engaged in work
among the Mexicans. Italians and
Greeks. He carries the Bible in
fifteen and breaches in five languages
Although 66 years old Reverend Oar
ley seems to have the vitality of a
man of 40.

In the September edition of The
Texas Banker" journal published
at Dallas, Texas, appears picture of
J. F. Allen, which was taken on the
bank of the Glenwood pool. Mr.,
Allen accompanied the Texas bankers
on their trip to the Northwest and
responded to the address of welcome
given them at Portland. He was
voted the best after dinner speaker and
story teller in the party, but it was
impossible for the journals: to get
picture of him with his consent, 81

Allen in bathing costume and the
'smile that won't come off, when the

Hughes Able Argument

The following is part of the argu-
ment used by Attorney Charles j.
Hughes before Judge Hallett on the
Gore canon case:
''As matter of fact, the
railroad can be built successfully
in no other place. and we have the
opinion of the best practical engineers
of the country. If it is built any
where else, the increased cost of con.
struction and operation will make
failure of a most promising enterprise.
1t appears that in 1903 the railroad
company began the actual construction
of the road and that at that time the
contract was let for Gore canon.
Three contracts were let early, No.
in Jefferson county, No. in Boulder
county and No. Bin Gore canon. And
for the very purpose of avoiding the
trouble that has come upon us, we
filed on the land in Gore canon early.
We have reached the last ditch, and
a great railroad enterprise is about to
be cut off. A country is to be devel
oped by this railroad that has wealth
untold, and if we are kept out of this
canon the road will be crippled
Why should this great enterprise be
thwarted simply because Mr.. Fellows
and other theorists want to use the
water of Grand river down in Cali
fornia, Utah and Mexico2

Senator Taylor is in receipt of a
letter from Governor Mcdonald stating
that the proposed fish hatchery for
Glenwood depends altogether on
whether or not sufficient state funds
will be available. This will hinge
on the amount of valuation placed on
property by the county assessors. If
the assessment is light some of the
proposed appropriations will probably
be cut out. 1t is now believed, how
ever, that there will be sufficient
funds available to take care of all the
improvements provided for by legisla
tive enactments

Hedden could not find sufficient evi-
dence to convict under the complaint
and the prisoner was discharged.
