THOSE DENVER PAPERS.

Oh, those Denver papers! How they
do color up the news. How IN the
world can we who are depending on
these papers for our news of the state
and nation hope to arrive at just conclu-
sions when almost every item of any
Importance is colorod up with several
coats of paint of a color peculiar to the
prejudices of the paper in which at ap
pears. For instance, who can tell by
reading the accounts in several Denver
papers what really happened DOWN
there at Monte Vista last week con
eerning the ousting of Commander Al
drich, and who of those depending on
the Denver papers for their information
have a correct idea of the status of
affairs at the soldiers home? And
what is the reason 1t appears to Dc
this way: Governor Buchtel took some
kind of hand in it and conditions
have reached point when the News
can see nothing good in Buchtel and ON
the other hand the Republica has
yet been able to discover nothing amiss
in the governor. Under these condi-
tiOnS neither one of these papprS is
able to look the truth squarely in tho
face where the governor is concerned.
The Post? Well, the Post can do a lit
tie coloring also and you can never tell
on which side of a question it is going
to apply the brush What Denver needs
is a newspaper which can LOOK the facts
in the face and give the people the un
vanished truth without colorings.-

SHOW YOUR INTEREST IN THE
SCHOOLS

Every good citizen of Glenwoo1
should feel deep interest in the city
schools and show that interest by an
occasional visit or an inquiry of the
teachers concerning the work.
If the schools are not all that they
should be considering the money ex
pended in their maintenance, you as
taxpayer have right to know why
they are not and to do your part by
bringing about an improved condition;
of affairs. This cannot be accomplishel
by a system of pessimistic criticism.
If you have any suggestions which
you think might prove helpful no doubt
the school board or the teachers will
welcome them, but don't knock. Teach
ers have no time to listen to scold.
They need encouragement ana good
cheer.
And this brings us to the tnoug;s
that the Glenwood schools have not all
ways been what they are today. IL i
pretty generally conceded that tie
schools last year were very good, and
the Post knows it has been the desire
of the school board to make them sti..
better this year.
Time was, and not very long ago,
when our schools were not reocgniz, .
by any state institution of learning.
Members of the board could not under
stand why this was so, but the reasC''
was clear to almost everyone else
Since then there has been n steady i'm

THE NUMBER of tourists to arrive
in Glenwood yesterday was surprising
to anyone who had throught the season
over. That the coming winter will be
the best and most prosperous Glenwood
has yet seen is the sentiment expressed
by nearly everyone. We have the rea-
sons all about us for continued pros
perity and greater patronage than
ever. Why Glenwood should not con
tinue an all-year resort has never been
demonstrated and the Post believes
that we shall see more people each sue
ceeding winter come to Glenwood.

THE FATAL SPEED MANIA.

Have you ever noticed how the world
runs to fads and crazes! A few years
ago bicycle road races and bicycle
track races were all the rage and me:
who could scarcely be hired to do an
honest days work would drive physical
endurance to the very breaking poin.
in order to win a cheap medal and be
listed as a champion. Many died as
result of over -exertion in these worse
than foolish contests while many others
wasted their energy in the useless fad
instead of putting it to some good pGr
pose.
More recently there has been craze
for automobile racing and manufactur
ers of certain machines are making use
in an advertising way of the fact that
their machines have won certain speed
contests, and yet, what does it matter
if they have? Wherein is the advan
tage? What was the object in getting
over the ground at the terrific speed
quoted? Merely to satisfy a fad, a
crazy whim for speed without any le
gitimate cause or reason. Just to feed
the unnatural excitement. Just to
pose in the glare and listen to the bau
Bile. Just to hear the paudits of the
crowd, to be greeted with the handicap
and the waving handkerchiefs, to be
referred to as the driver of the winning
machine and to be able to place a ban
ner or a pennant on a mass of wood
and steel and rubber which has been
declared the winner in a speed contest.
For these silly reasons men are risk
ing their lives, and other men, yes ana
women too, are encouraging them -
risk their lives, and the Post believes
it is about time there should be AZ
AWAKENING 10 thc uahBer oi Iuls cra"c'
Only this week two men on the Over
land Park track at Denver, sacrificed
their lives to the craze for speed. l.
is little less than criminal to allow peo
pie to jeopardize thir lives anu the lives
of others to satisfy this abnormal spec
mania. Human life is of far greater
Importance than the making Of a spee'
record for some brand of automobile.

CRAZY BROKER
MURDERS Wife
Awful Deed Committed By
Chicago Man. Then
Tries Suicide
USES CLEAVER TO KILL

Chicago, Sept. Mrs. Fred NJ Fish,
wife of a wealthy retired broker, was
found murdered in her home at 423 Da-
Wis street, Evanston, at an early hour
this morning. Her husband was found
with his throat cut on the floor of the
bedroom in which Mrs Fish was lying.
1t is the opinion of the police that Fish
murdered his wife and then attempted
to take his own life.
Mr.. and Mrs. Fish were heard by
their neighbors in violent quarrel
last night. 1t is believed that Fish
arose early and after firing a shot at
his wife s head, mutiiated her in ter
rible manner with a butchers cleaver
Fish was formerly assoc ated with a
large commission house but recently re
tired on account of failing health.
1t was declared by physicians at the
hospital today that Fish will probably
recover. Late this afternoon he recov-
cred consciousness and soon afterwari
became so violent that it was found
necessary to remove him to santa,

BACK TO FIRST PRINCIPLES.

SCHOOL BOARDS throughout the
country are waking up to the fact that
there has been an incXcusable tendency
during late years to run too mu h
to fads and nom essential in courses Of
tary studies without thorough knowl
edge of which no education can be com
plcte. The result has been that all
over the country students are turned
ont of high school with smattcring
Of Latin and German and a sniff of bot
any, who are woefully deficient in com
mon arithmetic and who murder the
Quenn s English with every half dozen
sentences.
In the same superficial way many Of
the business colleges of the land are
spelling some mighty good dish washers
and laundry maids by pretense of
transforming them into stenOgraphcrs
when there is no educational basis upo
which to build.
1t is a truth that if the grounl wor5
in the recognized rudimentaIs is well
laid there is a foundation upon which
any educational superstructure may be
reared if the proper application is made
with that end in view
1t is not uncommon Tor teachers in
the high schools to encounter all kinds
of trouble with dull pupils and often
to wonder what is the trouble, only to
find upon careful investigation that the
foundation was neglected and is there
fore defective, making it impossible to
rear superstructure which is essential
to success at the present time. 1t is
time to place more stress upon recog
nized essentials and pay less attention
to fads.

Post is not able to say, but we do know
that coal is sold much as labor and

We regret to say that the chances are
very good for the citizens of Colorado
to pay from $500 to 800 per ton for
coal this winter. The operators have
increased the price at the mines and
in justification of such move declare
that Nevada is anxious to contract for

UNIVERSITY DAY IN THE CON-
FERENCE.

Grand Junction, Sept. Perhaps
the items of greatest importance in
the annual Methodist conference today
were the selection of Longmont as the
place for holding the conference next
year and the formation of a permanent
lay conference, the membership to be
composed of lay members to be elected
each year by the various charges.
There was no night session of the
conference this evening, the evening
being devoted to the University ban

plates were laid and over 100 people
were turned away. After Chancellor.

work at the university aud of the
splendid work along financial lines, the

900 for a new chapel building at Uni

The ministers present readily entere
into the suggestion and before the
meeting ended had pledged their con
gregations to this work in sums which
aggregate $10,5OO. There was great re
joicing at the announcement of this gi
gantic subscription and friends of the
university stated that the outlook for
the institution was better than at anv
former time and Chancellor Buchtel
was frequently complimented on the
splendid record he has made.

COUNTY COMMISSIONERS have
called meeting of Glenwood citizens
to discuss some method of raising funds
for repairing the road between Glen
wood and Cardiff. There is one thing
very certain and that is that the work
is badly needed. 1t is also true that
this work should be done at the gem
eral expense of the county and paid
for out of county funds. To be sure,
the county is short of cash and the Post
will not say that the commissioners
should spend 100000 on roads and
bridges if the money is not available.
There is sometimes such a thing as
wanting to do a thing and yet being
unable to DO so, and we imagine that
is about the position of the commits
sioners at this time. At all events,
let's all attend the meeting and talk
that matter over with the commission
ers. The Post may comment on the
matter at later date.
