Christianity,

At a recent provincial assembly of
the Grand Lodge of England the Dean
of Gloucester is reported to have said:

the Masonic brotherhood has now
ranged itself formallXS and openly with
the declared enemies of Christianity.
ranking themselves with no mere ag-
nostics, doubters and inquirers, but
with the bitter and remorse1css foes
of religion which alone can make q
country, as it has done our England
free and great and strong. 1t is the
deliberate conviction of grave and
thoughtful men that Masonry a DOW
erful order in France, our wcll-beioved
neighbor. is the seat and home of that
bitter, relentless infidelity which is
working such terrible havoc, which is
gravely threatening the peace and
well-being of that glorious France, our
friend. For time the trouble
which had grown up between church
and state in France was not much
needed, still less commented upon, in
England. Many of us were grieved,
but we grieved silently. 1t was en-
phaticaliy not our concern. Gradually
the veil was lifted and we saw the
feud was based upon grave issues
Separation between church and state
had something sinister behind it-a
grim spectre of hostility to revealed
religion, to Christianity in any form"

(Hrcm the London Chronicle.)
Sir Edward Clarke, in joining the

many survive today? In spite of Pit

man or woman who can invent a sys-

effectively as to the original writer.
Perhaps if we were to rediscover the
lost shorthand writing of the ancient
Romans we might find ourselves on the
road toward a solution of the problem
For the Romans were on affectionate
terms with shorthand. Did not Sue
tonius, speaking of Caligula, express
surprise that an emperor of so many
promising parts should, nevertheless, be
an ignoramus in shorthapd; and did
not Titus Vespasianus pride himself on
his facility in the use of stenography
both for business and amusement? So
fond was he of the sport that he de-
lighted to gather his amanuenses
around him in order that they should
tilt against each other in the steno-
graphic field. 1t may be that but for

FIRST annual
4 IOWA DAY

The first annual Mesa County "Iowa
Day WAS celebrated at Palisade yes
-tsrday in fitting style. The country
down the Grand was settled in early
days by natives of the state of Iowa
and inhabitants of that state have been
steadily cmigrating to that part of the
Western Slope until it might now be
said with great deal of truth that
predonderance of the eople in Pail
sale hail from that great state. Prom
iuent business men horticulturalists of
that nativity had been advocating n
celebration for some time for the pur-
pose of advertising Palisade S natural
resources and their efforts eliminated
IN the celebration of yesterday. 1t was
80 Colorado Day" too but that fact did
not enter at all into the days pro
gram.
The address of welcome was deliv-
cred by Mayor Scroggns and was re
sponded to by such light as Senator
Horace n. DeLong and DR.. Smith of
Grand Junction, L. l.. Penfeld of
F'ruita, r. w. Shropshire of White
Water, s. C. Skinner of Molina, George
w Bales of DeBeque and other promi-
ucnt Iowa men residing in Mesa
county.
The exhibition of fruit and the free
feast of Palisade peaches at noon were
of course the main attractions, but the
ball game between Palisade and Fruita,
the bands from Palisade and Fruita,
foot races, wheel barrow races, etc,
and big dance in the evening all
helped draw the crowd. Palisade won
the ball game, 10 to 10, and a Glen
wood man landed first money in the
foot race.
1t is intended to make Iowa day an
annual affair and an organization has
been effected and officers elected from
the Iowa people with that end in view.

ALL MARKETS LOWER

Denver Union Stock Yards, July 90.
Cattle values took big drop at all
markets last week and prices here went
down in sympathy. Receipts We're
liberal but all sold as there was n good
demand at the decline. Grass steers
market held up better as bulk of sup
ply last week consisted of tecrs. Good
cows closed weak to quarter lower
and common kinds off 30 to i0c. East
those here and spectators and dealers
lost money ON nearly everything for
warded during the week. Local prices
are still high compared with eastern
quotations and shippers will find this
market as good if not better than those
at the river. Best fed steers sold early
last week at $3.50, Routt county hay
feds brought 1925, North Parkcrs,
$500 and just fair Western Colorado
straight grassers $t.65 freight paid.
Late in the week fancy North Parkcrs
sold at So freight paid, and just fair
Routt county steers brought $40 to
%4.25. North Park cows brought $4.00
on Monday but not many got above
$3.50 later in the week and pretty
good class of grass cows is selling
around $3.50 with medium to fair kill
ers ranging down to $2.75. Common
cows are very dull. Bulls and veals are
weak though not materially lower, and
demand good. Feeders and stockers in
fair demand if good but lower owing
to big declines east. Receipts today
were light and under good demand
prices ruled firm to a little higher than
last week s close.
The hog supply was $500 head last
week and demand strong for all of
them. Prices are gradually working to-
wards higher basis aud tops sold to-
day at $6.25.
Sheep receipts We're light and not
much trading done here last week. De-
mand for both sheep and lambs is very
fair. Prices are hardly as firm as a
week ago but still relatively higher
than at eastern markets.

day attended by physician. His con

NEAR LEADVILLE

Leadville, Aug. l.-Prof. Earl Terry,
principal of the manual training school
at Idaho Springs, was drowned in Nc
Luchlan's reservoir between Leadville
and Fort Lupton last evening while
fishing from pier.
Considerable mystery surrounds the
death of Professor Terry as the water
where he fell from the pier was only
3 12 feet deep.
The theory advanced at this time is
that he became dizzy before he fell into
the water or else was seized with n
sudden attack of heart disease.
