Colorado to Celebrate Discov-
cry of Pixies Peak.

One of the most unique celebrations
in history will be that to be held the last
week in September at the foot Of the
towering mountain peak discovered by
Zebulon Montgomery Pike one hundred
years ago. Although Colorado is one OF
the youngest states, it is nevertheless re-
plete with history of the virulent sort
that appeals to the average citizen of the
United States. This history will be un-
folded in the elaborate program that is
being prepared. From the day when
Pike with his weary but dauntless little
band stood awed at the foot of the giant
sentinel OF the plains that now bears his
name, to the teeming present will be un.
folded in panoramic splendor. Distin.
guished representatives of the govern
ment, diplomats, governors, historians
educators, the military, Indians, COW
boys, pioneers, patriotic societies, all will
have part. President and Mrs.
Fairbanks will be the guests of honor,
and other visitors of high position will
lend dignity to the occasion.
Inc celeDTuLlOu Will DC HlUtdry IN
character, since Pike was patriot and
soldier. In addition to the army maneu-
vers there will be COW boy and Indian
sports and polo and golf tournaments on
more pretentious scale than ever be-
fore given in the west. The program is
divided into days AS follows:
Monday, September "a, Military day;
Tuesday, September %, Pioneers day;
Wednesday, September 26, Historical
Day; Thursday, September 81, Pike Day;
Friday, September %. Colorado Day;
Saturday, September 30, Centennial Day.
Special rates have been granted for
the occasion by all the railroads, and
the cities of Colorado Springs, Colorado
City and Manitou are prepared to take
care of the largest crowds of their his
tory. Lying as they do in the shadow Of
the great Pixies Peak, nothing will be
left undone by the citizens to make the
Pike Centennial an history making epoch
in the West.

While doing some shopping in one of
our grocery stores last evening we chan
ced to hear little boy ask his father
who that man was buying the beans.
"That is our editor, said the father,
"What do editors live on" said the in
quisitive little urchin. .'Why do you
ask that question" said the indulgent
father. because heard you say you
had taken our home paper for three years
and had never paid a cent for it," To
save the father embarrassment we left
the store, but it is safe to predict that
the child got spanked when the father
got him home.

Random Thoughts

We take it for granted that parents
are as much II not more interested in
the advancement of their children at
school as are the teachers, and no teach
er takes delight in a pupils failure. The
management simply wishes to call the
attention of the parent to the facts in
the case and urgently request, no de
mand, tina; nothing be allowed to inter
fere with the progress of their school
work

ey reached the sum of s6,9s722. This is
by long odds the biggest months bust.
ness ever recorded in the history of the

Next Weeks Fair.

AT Elbert next Thursday, Sept 20, the
big day of the fair will be held and the
indications are that it will be better than
ever. The live stock show and exhibit
of farm products promise to be great
and from present indications the exhibit
in all classes will outnumber those of
previous fairs. There will probably
be two bands of music, as arrangements
are under way to secure the famous
Denver Post band of 50pieces, and there
will be music galore. There will be
good racing, base ball game, baby
show, grand ball at night, and some
thing to amuse every one Come to the
fair and bring the entire family.

That man must have some place where
he and his fellows may cougregate for
recreation and instruction, where toll
and business cares may be cast aside for
an evening of pleasure and social divert
isement take their place, is recognized
fact. The lodge offers one of the best
solutions OF this question, as is eviden-
ced by the many orders that have sprang
up in this country within the last decade.
Besides these are the numerous older
and grander orders, all of which have in
their rituals teachings that have been
important factors in the educational and
moral developement OF the people.

The editor who can please every one is
not suited for this earth but is entitled to
wings. Human nature is so constituted
that some of our readers would like to
have us feed them on scandal; some
would like to have us tell the unvarnished
truth about them, while Others would
kill us if we did. 1t is comforting
thought to the editor to know that the
Lord Himself did not please every one
while on earth. We labor hard to enter
tain and please our subscribers but that
we should occasionally fail is to be ex-
pected, but you will always find us will
ing to be forgiven.

the corn before the swine, is now in great
est luck; for buffers on the upper grade
veal's higher than kite, pork is climb

eggs he gathers every day from his pol

His corn brings him a fancy price, its
rising every day. and he rakes in all

farmer is in the saddle and when he
comes to town the rest OF us by right

Seneca Falls. N. Y, Oct. 1s.--In
speeches today in Yates and Seneca
counties. Charles r. Hughes, the re-
publican candidate Cor governor, took
up and answered the assertion made
BY w. r. Hearst at Corning last night
to the effect that the net result of the
life insurance investigation as con-
Quoted by Mr.. Hughes was the substi-
tuition in the Equitable Life Assur-
ance society of Ruthless Ryan for
HARMLESS Hyde" Mr.. Hughes declar-
ed his opponent was insineere in nak-
ing such statement and could not
fool the people He pointed ont
that the Ryan purchase Of the Hyde
stock was made before an investiga-
tion was even ordered and naturally
before he had anything to do with the
subject. Mr.. Hughes repeated in his
speeches today his charges OF insin-
cerity OF Mr.. Hearst. This has been
the keynote Of all his later utterances
and he has given especial promi-
nence and emphasis to the charges in
arraignment Of his addresses.

Paris, Oct. 13. - Revelations result
ing from the publication in Germany
of the late Chancellor Won Hohen-
lohe's Recollections continue to make
"a great stir in France on account Of
the side lights thrown upon the Ger
man policy toward the republic, and
today in connection with the cente-
nary tomorrow of the battle of Jena,
which opened the gates of Berlin to
the victorious French army, news
papers here are filled with articles on
the subject.
The prevailing opinion here is that
there is some important secret behind
the publication Of Prince Hohenlohe's
!Recollections, but there is a DISPOSE
ition to attribute it less to the court
Intrigue than to a maneuver to ad-
vance the anti -monarchial movement
by discrediting personal rule in Ger

Madrid, Oct. 49, The conflict be-

constantly growing more tense. Min
lister of Justice Pomanones proposes
that the bishops, who, by virtue of
their position are senators, interpel-
late the government on the question
of civil marriages at the reassembling

ment has declined to acknowledge the
receipt of communication from five
bishops who recently met at Burgos
and sent a message to the government
violently protesting against the 'anti-
Christian movement" and announcing
that they will not obey the laws which
violate the rights of the church.
