THEY CONVICT THEMSELVES

Both Rifle papers. in commenting
on the arrest and conviction of M essrs
Wayne and Siprelle of Grand Val
ley, almost became hysterical in their
condemnation of Game Warden Cor
don in bringing the prisoners to Glen
wood for trial and thus mulcting
them unnecessarily as they claim.
The Reveille quotes pretended
claim of the two men to the effect
that they "took out hunting licenses
shortly before the season closed, and
claimed to have killed the deer in
their possession in the time prescrib-
Ell by law, hut that owing to lame
horse were unable to get home with
their meat as soon as they should.
The apologists failed to state the
shortly" referred to was October 8.
the day before the hunting season
closed; that the licenses were taken
out at Meeker on that date and that
it would require extra good luck for
anyone to kill a deer between the
issuance of these licenses and their
expiration. They also fail to state
that one of these animals was doe,
on which there is no open season, and
the further fact is not mentioned that
both prisoners admitted their guilt to
Gordon and entered a plea of guilty
before Judge Witten and asked for
the mercy of the court which was
given.
If any argument were necessary to
prove that Gordon's conduct was JUS
ti6able that argument is furnished by
the Rifle Telegram in the following
statement:
SAT Meeker the wardens are un-
able to interest he courts in their
game of graft, Here it is the same.
AAau 1uS BcHtleIleh pccn DIouSuI
before Judge Smith he would doubt
less have imposed light fine, recog
nizing the minority of the offense,
and the fee hungry wardens would
have been unappeased, and would
have been likewise minus the mileage
for distance unnecessarily t1av-
eled
Exactly. And so it would seem
that Mr.. Gordon has had experience
with Rife and Meeker courts. and
found them unsatisfactory if we may
credit the Telegram $ statement.
The only way the officials can hope
to enforce the law and protect the
game is TO make the penalties severe
enough that violators will not care to
repeat their experience.
The gentlemen in question are re-
garded as good citizens but they 81 m
ply took chances and were caught and
should not complain when forced to
pay the penalty.

officials-if you can-that you are en-

ago the Post advised the stockmen to

THE ELECTIONS throughout the
East indicate very clearly the pass
ing of the political boss and the arbi e.
trary method of the political machine
which forces on tickets persons who
are obnoxious to the people in the
hope that the general popularity of
the party may sweep these people into
Office. The election of Jerome, the
man without a party as district at
torney of Greater New York is only
another one of recent proofs that the
reform forces must be reckoned with
in the future and this with the dis
comfiture of the Mormons in their own
pre-empted bailiwick of Salt Lake
are among the recent indications that

RESIDENTS OF COL ORADO have
reason to rejoice in the fact that this
state has been spared the disturbed
condi tions resultant from state cam
paign. While other states have en-
dured the turmoil and business dis
quietude which cannot be separated
from political contest, Colorado has
this year enjoyed season of tran
guilty such as no other November
has ever brought us. 1t may be a
tritle disappointing to some news
papers and to those professional politi
cal workers whose incomes increase
in direct proportion to the amount of
political activity they can manufac-
ture, but with all others the present
quietness is really appreciated.

THE TRIUMPHAL MARCH of

THE TRIUMPHAL MARCH of
President Roosevelt through eight of
the southern states, every one of
which voted against him, the great
outburst of enthusiasm resulting in a
positive and continuous ovation wher-
ever he went is really one of the most
wonderful events in ancient or modern
history. Nothing like it, nothing
beginning to approach it was ever
heard of before. SO firmly and deep
ly has Mr.. Roosevelt ingratiated him
self in the hearts of the southern peo-
pie that many of the leading demo-
cratic politicians of the South, some
of them members of congress, do not
hesitate to declare that they will sup
port the measures he advocates and
that they will vote for him for presi-
dent if again given the opportunity.

The Cry of the owl.

Recently in south Devon, England.
a rector was explaining to his Sunday
school children the clauses of the s'Te
Deum' when it occurred to him to ask,
what are cherubim 2"
The answer promptly came back,
White owls, sir"
what are seraphim, then?" asked
the astonished rector.
Brown owls, sir"
.'Why do you think so?'' he further
inquired.
Because, sir, it says, 'Cherubim and
seraphim continually do cry and that
is owls, sir.
That this belief is not one wholly of
the present day the author of Bird
Life and Bird Lore bears witness, for
he quotes from book published early
in the last century, which contains a
chapter entitled 'Cherubim Shooting"
The book is sporting Anecdotes"
and tells of two cockney sportsmen
who succeeded in bringing down a
white owl, a bird they had never seen
before 1t threw itself against bank
and, drawing up its claws, as its man
ner is, spread its large wings until it
seemed to be all eyes and wings.
One Of the sportsmen gazed at it in
horror and exclaimed, Heaven forgive
US, we have shot cherubiml"
