and that it will require ten years
to get our navy in shape to even
so much as to have a fighting
chance with the Japanese. Hob
sons criticism of the U. S. navy
in its present condition, reminds
us of the statements made by the
supposed knowing ones when war
was declared with Spain. All we
heard then was of Spain's power
full navy and what would be done
to us on water Well, when got
out on the big pond and our yes
sells got into action, Spain's much
ly talked of big fighting ships were
made to look like a lot of skiffs.
And that's about what would prove
to be the case should we line our
naval forces up with Japan. Japan
has won somewhat of reputation
for having defeated Russia and
many of our leading army and
naval officers imagine the Japs
are great fighters and would have
us believe that we would make a
poor showing against them, espec-
tally on water. Because the Japs
conquered an army of unpatriotic,
poorly trained and inexperienced
Russians is no reason they can de-
feat patriotic, brave and well
trained soldiers and sailors like
America proudly boasts of, eithe,
in land or naval engagements
And in conclusion let us give tc
those who think that war with
Japan is imminent, a little fight

scheme would go through because OF it's

ing at one Of the large roller skating rinks
there. Skating seems to bring i'll luck to
Miss Cora, for it will be remembered that
she narrowly escaped death in the winter

Coor's pond where party Of half dozen
were engulfed in the water, and the
young Snyder lad drowned and Miss
DeFrance saved only by heroic twenty
minute struggle on the part of Charles
Driscoll.

the ditch six feet high and over fifty feet

by the ditch bank.

The Jewish Independent, back
ed by the influential Jews of
Cleveland, is agitating a move
ment to have Shakespeare's 'Mer-
chant of Venice" eliminated from
the study of literature in the pub
lie schools of that city. The rea-
son for this is that one character
in the play, Shylock, as he is por-
trayed by the writer, SO the indie.
pendent claims, tends to perpetu-
ate the feeling of prejudice against
the Jewish people. AS everyone
knows who has read the "Mer-
chant of Venice" Shylock is rep
resented as a man whose greed for
gold would lead him to commit
almost any act that would add to
his wealth and by no means is he
pictured as the Jew of today, es.
pecially those of America. There
is no doubling that Shakespeare's
characterization of Shylock is a
gross exaggeration of the Jew
those of the present day at least
and conveys wrong impression of
that people. The barring of the
"Merchant of Venice" from school
study would in no way hamper
literary instruction and would save
Jewish scholars much embarrass-
ment to which they are now SUBJ
iected.

Governor Buchtel in his sup.

in way afford relief from railroad
rate oppression, but instead favors
a measure that is wholly to the
liking of the railroad companies.
Insteadso insisting upon the pas
sage of local option measure
that would meet with the approval
of that portion of his constituency
allied with the churches, he is 60
ing to let a bill slip through that
will in no way bring about the re-
forms that the church people seek.
In this regard he is reciprocating
the election favors shown him by
the liquor dealers and brewers.
AS far as we are personally in
terested in the passage of local
option bill, whether it be loose
or stringent one, does not make
particle of difference with us,
but we do think the governor in a
matter of this kind should be true
to his ministerial calling and use
his power as governor to have u
bill passed that he knows would be
effective as law, even though he
may be under obligations to the
liquor dealers and the brewers.
He is equally obligated to the
church people for their support in
his election and as between the
wet goods people and the church
people his religious connection de-
mands that he stay with the latter.

The Laton bill, which a peanut
headed legislator attempted to
have made into law, restricting
the press of the state from CON-
menting adversely upon the ac-
tions of individuals, particularly
of6ceholders, has been properly
killed. The bill made it libel
GUS offense for a newspaper to
criticise an individual or public
official unless the paper could
prove facts that would justify or
warrant the criticisms made. This
in many instances would be an
impossibility although the action
of the paper would be justified.
In many cases it would be hard
to produce proof that would sus-
tain paper in censuring or criti-
cising person, although what a
paper would say might be con-
Cured in by almost everyone. A
measure like the one Laton intro
duced would be particularly hard
on such papers as are published
in Denver, that care not what they
say about a man or official who
does not conduct his affairs to suit
their ideas. A conscientious and
fair-minded publication does not
condemn or criticise a man unless
there are sufficient grounds for so
doing, in which case generally
the paper can show where it right
and just in its course.
Gilpin observer., 1907-02-21

If the bill recommended by the
joint postal commission should be
made a law at this session of con-
gress, it would certainly reduce
the size of the Sunday editions OF
the city dailies, which contain far
more paper than readable news.
The bill proposes to do away with
the bulky Sunday supplements
and limit the ordinary supplement.
to news only. The comic sheets
which are needless and which
with an over abundance of various
colored ink spread over the paper
without uniform distribution only
tend to soil the hands, are to be
eliminated also. Advertising is to
be limited to fifty per cent of the
space or pages of the newspaper.
Should this bill become law, it
would greatly decrease the amount
of second class matter, and would
doubtless transform the big Sum
day daily from comparatively a
bundle of worthless paper to a
real news medium. The News
and Post on Mondays, as is now
the case, would not devote half Of
the front page to telling the read
ers how many columns of adver-
tising they printed the day before,
but instead would probably pub.
lish the amount Of genuine read
ing matter they furnished the pub
lie.
