1T is LAMENTABLE.

With the issue involved in the ap-
proaching state campaign of such i'm
portance to the people of the entire
state as to overshadow all local diff
ferences. the plight of the Denver
Democrats is lamentable. The ideas
for which the party stands in this
state contest for supremacy are clear
ly defined, and already so forcibly i'm
pressed upon the public mind, and
effecting constitution government so
Immediately and vitality that the
chances for success are fiattering even
under the adverse conditions existing
within the party in Denver. But the
party organization owes II to the
public, and more especially to the
rank and file of the people 1t repre-
sents, the people who are at home
when nominations are made and
party business transacted, to elimn-
ate every thing possible that might
make the result doubtful Where both
sides of factional quarrel like that
now existing in Denver, can not be
palliated and their troubles settled
amicable. the safest plan is to stand
by the constituted party authority.
Without this confidence in and res
pect for the organization, no party
can hope for permanent success: the
adoption of any other policy in deal
ing WIN tneSe matters, means the
continual injection of personal strife
and its accompanying descriptions. If
one of the Denver factions has weigh
ty grievances, let It make its fight, es-
pecially where the interests of the en-
tire state is to be effected by that
fight. at the primaries or conventions
called by regularly chosen. and reoog-
nized authorities. If 1t is in the ma
jority, 1t can win here. or the state
convention will know why. If it Is
in the minority and yet contends for
the right policies or principles, the
state convention is bigger than Den
Yer, or any set of Denver politicians.
This plan is better than pursuing the
tactics of setting up new committees
or new organization and inviting a
revolt. Democracy stands for constl-
tutional government. and that means
party constitution as well as state and
national.

A dispatch from Denver states that

the transfer of $500 to the state

disease might be Immediately un-

Taylor of the state board of health
there have been over six hundred cas-
es of typhoid along the Arkansas
river within the last month. and Sep
tember and October, are the two
worst months for the spread of the
disease.
The cause of the hundreds being

towns on the river have inadequate

the dispatch. and people on ranches

1t is stated that the epidemic
extends from Grand Junction to La
Hunta and to the health authorities
is particularly aggravating around
Holly and Lamar.
While there have been a number of

epidemic, at no time has there been

tude" and find peace from worry.
Another woman who has recently
come from the Orient has started a
fad of the east Indian philosopher of
repose," and it is running through
all grades of New York society like
wild-fre. She teaches that the one
thing necessary to human happiness
is to sit and keep softly saying
I'm" over to yourself until you are
what she calls lin tune with the In
finite"
All this sounds very sweet and en-
ticing. But the good. plain. old
fashioned word "laziness" expresses
the whole doctrine better.
1t is a fine philosophy for turtles.
Turtles never worry. Something
ike I'm" is all they ever have
been known to say. Lazing all day
long. they have the serene atti-
tude" and the "repose' in highest
perfection. And it is said that they
sometimes live 1000 years.
People who never worry never do
anything else of consequence. They
may not be turtles, but they might
just as well be.
Worry of the right sort is a spur
to effort.
Discomfort with wrong conditions
is the minds first step toward right
ones.
Worry has its uses.
