MISSOURI NAN HITS ptSSlnISn

A. J. Martin, editor of the Union
Vile (Mo.) Republican. lands somo
heavy blows on the pesslmist in
recent number of his excellent paper.
The comments we-e called forth by
a lecture recently delivered in his
town by Professor Lee who declared
his belief that the world is rapidly
growing worse. MI. Martin has Wis
tied dl.nwood on two or three occa
sions and is we'll known to many of
our citizens and for that reason and
because his comments are so sensible
and pertinent we reproduce couple
of paragraphs:
"The Republican is weary of this
doctrine of despair as promulgated by
some of these egotistical hothouse pro-
ducts of college atmosphere. We
weary of being told that the average
community is made up of collection
of goats for whose hypocricies hell
will never be not enough. 1t is tire
some to have some fellow who has
been drawing 800 per month in some
college come to town at $75 pei night
and tell you that the votes of one out
of every five of your neighbors can be
bought for dollar. There is abso.
lutely no good to be accomplished in
creating in the minds of school chill
dren and young people generally a
distrust of every man high and low
who holds an office. To relieve the
darkness OF his picture Prof. Lee
pointed to 10 individual or set of in
dividuals who were attempting in any
way to dispel the evils upon which he
founded his prophecy of despair. The
facts are that our standards of morals,
both governmental and personal, are
higher and better than ever before in
the history of the world. Men are
more honest, women are more virtu-
GUS, more people are we'll fed and we'll
clothed. and more people own their
homes than ever before. The honest
citizenship of the country is not
asleep. The people are more tolerant
and speech is freer.'

WE BELIEVE Colorado is the mos

WE BELIEVE Colorado is the most
wonderful state in the Union. There
are SO many splendid opportunities
that are almost unheard of elsewhere
that every one of us ought to be glad
we are privileged to call Colorado our
home. The fortunes that have been
made in Colorado and the certainty of
more and greater achievements amaze
as we'll as fascinate the world. And
then when we remember that Colol ado
is famous not only for its opportuni
ties for acquiring wealth but that it
possesses matchless climate and sur
passing scenic attractions which
money can neither buy or create we
are douhly glad we live IN this great
Centennial state.

AN ENCOURAGING sigr

AN ENCOURAGING sign of the
times so far as Colorado is concerned
is the enthusiasm with which our cit
izens, especially the business men of
Denver are going about the work of
boosting Colorado. The Colorado
State Commercial association has un
dertaken to raise a purse of 800, 600
for the purpose Of exploiting Color
ado 8 advantages to the world. This
is the land of opportunities and the
surface is scarcely scratched. We
welcome the strong and ambitious
from the East and South who wish to
cast their lot in the land of sunshine
and promise.

NEARLY ALL those who have
protested against the creation of forest
reserves do so upon the ground that
such action restricts home, building.
There is no foundation for this OBJ
Jection. for two reasons-creation does
not prevent settlement, and as rule
there are very few places IN the re-
serves where any one would want to
make home. The department has
many times declared its policy OF
removing from the limits of reserve
any lands that are wanted for settle
ment. This policy was announced in
the letter written by the president
when he issued the last of his proc
lamations. Practically the same at
titude was shown in the statement
made to Senator Bourne on Saturday,
when he inquired regarding the rights
of those who have already made settle.
ments, but have not acquired title.
The government is rot standing in
the way of any homebuilder. When
opponents of forest reserves assert that
settlement is being retarded, it might
not be bad idea for them to givo the
names Of intending settlers, the lands
they desire to locate upon, and the
time when they asked the government
to release the lands and were refused.

THE REAPPOINTMENT Of F. A.
Gordon as game warden for this dis
trict is one of the wise acts of the
present administration. Leaving out
of the account Mr.. Gordon fealty to

THE STATEMENT of James j.
