A CORRECTION.

Those persons who read the
announcement in our last issue
that the Boosters subscription
rates were only one dollar year
are hereby advised that the state
ment is not wholly true. The
dollar rate only goes when made
as a private transaction. The
Booster has explained the situa-
ton and we hasten to make cor
rection. You have to apply pri-
vately to get that rate as it is the
intention to get two dollars out
of most of the people.

THE Boosters chief grief seems
to be that the town went dry, to
Judge from the sympathy with
which he deals with the men who
were as he says counted out of
business" Bro. Oliver should
possess his soul in peace. He
cannot play both strings. This
editor voted for a wet town. We
are sorry it did not go wet. Now
that it is dry we want it to stay
dry-so dry that Clint will have
to make another trip to Crawford
for his next drink.

THE quiet and gentlemanly man
ner in which the saloon men OF
Paonia accept the result of the
election speaks volumes for their
good citizenship. Without pro-
test they accept the situation, close
their places, in one instance yield
to revokal of existing license and
in all ways show disposition of
submission to the popular will that
proves our saloon men to have
been law-abiding and good citi-
zens.-Paonia Newspaper.
The saloon keepers of Canon
City might find it to their advant-
age to show their regard for the
law as have their fellows at Paonia,
Colorado. The man who expects
to be protected by the law must
himself obey the law, otherwise he
is an outlaw. The law is not
made for the innocent but the
guilty, and the men who seek,
through some real or imaginary
loop hole in the law, to evade
that law, is not good American
citizen. The saloon keepers at
Paonia are to be commended.

WE seriously question whether
the most happiness is occasioned
by the reception of needed gifts
or the giving of them. The pa
pers are full of the gratitude ex-
pressed by the suffering Califor-
mans as relief trains roll into their
city. Doubtless they feel warm
human love for those who have
remembered them, but how is it
with those who have been blessed
by being in position to give? !?
Women in Paonia opened long
closed receptacles for babies
clothing on Sunday night and
Monday morning. Tenderly they
unfolded garments that called up
memories not awakened for years.
The tiny dress that once held a
morsel of humanity now grown to
womanhood and living far away,
little garments that were once the
pride of baby boy now man,
possibly in the ill-fated city to
which she is now meditating send
ing these keepsakes and remind
ers of her youthful married life.
And again garments were baptized
in tears that flowed in memory of
the baby not permitted to live
and reach mans estate. Verify,
it is in the giving that the tender
est and most beneficial results are
found. Paonia men and women
are better and purer in heart be-
cause great calamity called into
action their dormant energies,
woke anew the same sentiments
that possessed them when they
stood weeping by new made

MONEY HUNGER.

David R. Forgan, vice presi
dent of the First National Bank
of Chicago, recently delivered an
address to a gathering of young
men. Mr.. Forgan gave his young
auditors some wholesome advice
and warned them not to be IN too
great hurry to get rich.
perhaps you think it impos-
slble that a mans soul should
entirely shrivel up in the pursuit
of wealth. If you knew some
millionaires as we'll as | know
them you would agree with me
that they had lost the last vestige
of the souls they may be presumed
to have possessed before the
mania for money getting obsessed
them. | would like to acquire
millions, but if the process is
going to make me like some of
the old devils | know who are
millionaires ] don't want the
money"
Mr. Forgan has merely put into
his own language the thought ex
pressed nineteen centuries ago:
What is man profted, il he
shall gain the whole world and
lose his own soulr" The man
whose whole life is given over to
the mere making of money is to
be pitied Money as posses
sion is not in itself a bad thing,
but money as the possessor is
wholly bad.-Commoner.

REPLYING to the charge in the
Booster that we said election
night that we would never vote
for another Methodist. this allie
CATION like most of their asser-
tions is true only in part. 1t is a
fact that talking with Matt Cava-
naugh at time when it looked
as if the Good Government ticket
was showed under completely,
and it further appearing as the
votes came out that it was the di-
rect result of having a prominent
Methodist on each ticket. Also
remembering that the pastor had
at the services on the Sunday
proceeding asked his sheep to
scratch their tickets and vote for
all the Methodists in sight, we
did say that if the conspiracy
won we would never vote for an
other Methodist, and we meant
every word. Later on it turned
out that we were listening to the
reading of little COB of votes
which meant very little in the gen
eral result, and like many another
remark made under the impression
that certain conditions existed,
was forgotten as soon as the erro-
neous impression was removed.
We never deny any of our utter
ances, or dodge their effect. We
do not play favorites. Had
Clinton Oliver been able to secure
the nomination for city clerk on
the winning ticket he would have
supported it as enthusiastically as
he opposed it. That failure was
all the difference in the Boosters
affiliation.

School Notes.

1ASiiSoieui di SoilCSC gave hioo'
excellent talk to the high school
on Wednesday morning OF last
week.
Capt. Underwood spent the
afternoon of the 18th with the
school and expressed himself as
being pleased with the work he
observed.
The school children were asked
on Monday morning to help the
relief of the San Francisco suffer-
ers and their appreciation was
very gratifying.
Mrs. Richardson visited room
one last week and observed the
work in that grade. Only four
more weeks of this term and we
would like to have one hundred
mothers as visitors during the
last month.
Arbor Day was observed by
the school with an appropriate
program and the planting of some
maple trees, which we secured
through the kindness of Mrs.
Wannemaker and Bernard Hart.
In very few years we will have
as beautiful and shady school
ground as could be wished for.
DR.. Roberts of the Denver
University, who was to have
spent last Friday with the school
arrived late but was in time to
add a few timely remarks to the
Arbor Day program. These rep
resentatives of the higher insti-
tutions of learning of the state
are always an inspiration to bet
ter work.
