A MERE SUGGESTION.
Governor euehsei VIII Tell the People
Of the Good Work Of the
leoislature.

Denver. - Governor Buchtcl hah
made the following statement:
"Thcnc coming days will be notable
In tho history OF legislation In Colo
RADIO. am confident that the Six.
tccnth General Assembly Will make
good. II Is subject OF general remark
that We have an exceptionally high nv.
crngc OF intelligence In the House ana
Senate. These men are from every 10
cali,y In the state. and NIL OF them be-
licvc that Colorado will be the home
of n vast population. The quality of
that population will In some measure
be determined by the action OF the
LEGISLATURE. We need to make laws
which wilt look good to fathers and
mothers who arc seeking n wholesome
moral atmosphere In which to bring up
their children. All the men in the Leg.
islaturc are boosters for Colorado.
They believe in smiling and pushing.
They wish to invite capital and peo.
pie. No one seeks to invite the vicious.
the shif,less and the degenerate. We
all seek to open the way for the pur.
poseful. the Industrious. the thrifty and
the morally sound.
81 am so sure that the House and the
Senate will adopt the pending whole
some measures that | am now gather
Ing the material for pamphlet In
which the vote Will be shown rs given
in both houses on all important meas
ures. A large edition Of this pamphlet
will be printed as soon as the LeEis'
lature shall have adjourned. The ro;i
of the House and the Senate will be
glad to have 1t known by their CON
stituents that they were faithful to
the people when the vast power OF
making laws was put in to their hands.
Faithfulness to the interests OF the
people is the real test of the value or
the work of every individual member
of the House and the Senate.
Just any ordinary man can collapse
in the face of powerful opposition to
wholesome measures. 1t Is only the
man of real force who. withstanding all
sorts of Establishments, can stand up
bravely and steadily for what is
wanted by the hundreds of thousands
of plain people who never come near
the State house. believe the men of
the Sixteenth General Assembly will
make great record in the enactment
of laws for the good of the whole peo-
Dle"

Stephen Henry oiin and Seth Lowe.
Primarily the object Of the organiza-
ton will be To cooperate on the most
extensive scale yet proIeeted with a
parent body OF the same kind no~
fioarishinE In Europe. Perhaps the
most important feature Of the new Of
ganiration Eili be its extension OF what
Is known abroad ms the interpariia'
meniary Union. composed exclusively
Of members of national paTliaments.
all enlisted in the cause Of peace and
pledged to Use their intiuene. for tina,
eans. In thos. legislative bodies.
Twenty.three of n total Of forty parlia'
ments are already represented. making
a membership OF more than 1000.
Probably the fiTst strong impetus for
the association will com. from tn. in
ternational arbitration and peace con.
Eress to meet In Carn.sit hall from
April 18th to April i1th. Andrew Car
nesio will preside.
From Europe will come Baron Es'

Secretary Straua and other members
OF tho Cabinet will attend and there
will be a large delegation from both
houses Of Congress. william J. Bryan
probably will make nm address. lnvi'
tn'ionn have been sent TO the editors
Of every prominent Newspaper In thc
country. and n press committee mas
been appointed. including the editors
Of nli the daily. weekly and monthly
periodicals published In New YORK.

NEBRASKA RAILROAD LAW.
Railroads Preparing to Contest its
Validity.

Omaha.-It is authoritatively an
nounced in a private report of official
character from Chicago that the rail-
roads of Nebraska will contest the
2.cent passenger fare law which the
Legislature enacted week ago. and
the governor signed last Wednesday
at midnight. placing 1t in effect at
once.
The railroads are now preparing 10
carry the case to the courts and there
make a vigorous contest to determine
the validity of the new law.
When the law was enacted 1t
carried an emergency clause which
provided for its operation upon Its be-
ing signed by the governor. or WITHIN
five days without his signature.
The governor, George l.. Sheldon.
though elected by the Republicans
upon n so called anti-railroad platform
last fall. on the Stump during the cam
paign advocated n graduated scale OF
fares, rather than a fiat 2.cent law. be-
lieving the latter would be confisca-
tory in many cases of small or branch
roads.
So when the Legislators passed the
bill providing for a fiat 2-cent rate,
Governo.. Sheldon hesitated to sign the
bill, thinking to be consistent
with his prediction course. But
when he considered that without
his signature the law, which the peo-
pie demanded, might be unconstitu-
tional, owing to the wording of the
emergency clause, he decided to sign
1t rather than place himself in the way
of what the majority of the Legislature
had deemed wise measure.

There is certain to bc wido future
for tho small college. II has n place
to MI which can be taken by no other
educational force. The small college
is commonly located In n small town.
II is quito sure TO depend in large
measure upon the patronage and sup.
port of men to whom life has been n
hard and serious problem. says Clcvc-
land Leader. To such colleges will
come students who find Il difficult to
obtain means for any education be-
yond the limits OF the public school.
The influence upon the civic life and
social ideals of the American repub.
lie which springs CON such colleges
and universities-for some have n
wide range OF usefulness and many
departments-has been exceedingly
valuable. It will not be less SO in the
future.

"Prophet" Dowie Dead.

Chicago.-John Alexander Dowie
died on the 9th at Shiloh house, Zion
City. There were present with him
when he died only Judge d. n. Barnes
and two personal attendants.
1t had been his custom all summer
and winter to hold religious services
every Sunday afternoon in the parlor
of Shiloh house. About $50 Of his orig.
inal followers remained faithful and
attended these services. Dowie al.
ways wore his apostolic robes and
made characteristic address. Five
weeks ago Dowie ceased to appear in
public, but the Sunday meetings were
still held by his adherents. Since that
time he has grown steadily weaker.

Talking Suffrage in Parliament.

London.-The bill to extend the
right of suffrage to women was de.
feated in the House of Commons on
the Sth, where it was talked to death
without coming to vote. Supporters
of the bill made n determined attempt
to secure a vote, but the speaker de-
clined to accept motion Of closure
and the sitting of the House was closed
automatically at o'clock. The bill is
thus killed for the present session.
The result was not surprising even
to the suffragettes, as some Of the
strongest sympathizers of the womens
cause realized that the question was
not ripe for legislation and that Par
lament will not be in position to act
until the question becomes an issue
at a general election.
