Occasionally we see a picture
of an immense slaughter of game
or extra large catch of trout,
photographed in part to satisfy
the vanity of the so-called sports
men, and perhaps, in part to help
prove that they were not lying
in their recitals. The sportsman
who is true at heart, kills spar
ingly, so as neither to waste nor
decimate. Little credit should
be taken for catching more trout
than needed or of killing an un-
necessary number for birds, and
the boaster along these lines is
more entitled to reprimand than
admiration.

1t should be considered fairly
and fully by the people of a town
having enterprising newspapers,
that such papers contribute of
their space and labor to every
enterprise, much more than the
average public spirited citizen or
business man in trade, gives in
cash. And that this contribution
on their part represents just so
much cash outlay, for they have
to pay cash for the work. To
ask them for cash donations on
the side, is. therefore, expecting
of them double what the average
contributing citizen or business
man gives, and that is by no
means fair. The energetic news
paper is usually the heaviest
contributor, both in money-ex-
pense and influence, to every
public enterprise.

1t is reported that one of the

somewhat peculiar-but there

paper needs bread with his shoes

on; he needs bread with his

In commencing the cause of
Judge Shackleford against the
open attack of Gov. Buchtel, the
Mesa County Bar Association
paid the Judge what must have
been a very gratifying compli-
ment and at the same time ad-
ministered a rebuke to the Gov
ernor. While it is not our mis-
sion to discuss this little unpleas-
antness, it is perhaps wise to
suggest that the Republican
party of Colorado should lose no
unnecessary time swapping" its
Chancellor Governor for some
other individual. Anybody, for
instance, might not be a bad
trade. But of course the Repub-
lican party can be depended upon
to right the Executive office; it
makes it a point to correct mis-
takes at the first opportunity
after it happens to make one,
and, this fall, a gubernational
candidate will be nominated who
will do full credit to so great
state and party.

The new plan of nominating
delegates to conventions from
this county by primary election
was decided upon by the county
central commitree at it's recent
meeting, and we presume the
precinct committeeman are fully
advised and instructed as to it's
working. The plan has been in
force in some other counties of
the State and has given satisfact-
ion. 1t should at least afford a
voters choice of delegates.
While the convention is called
for the 4th of April, the pri-
maries are to be held on Satur-
day the 26th Of this month, and
the notice to that effect being
published in this issue, gives
somewhat scant time to give the
required five days notice of the

What the world wants." s" re-
marked wise man the other
day when the subject of religion
was under discussion, SIS a re-
ligion that can swim, skate, play
ball, row a boat, laugh and enjoy
life in every bright and whole
some way. We have made re-
ligion oppressive, Oppressive and
rarely expressive of any feelings
but painful seriousness. Our re-
ligion lacks rich blood, tense,
vigorous muscles, strong, reg
ular pulse. Why not tell the
young folks of our churches and
Sunday schools that religion
brightens the eye; lightens the
heart and brings to life its rich
est enjoyment? What we need
is not religion for the cemetery
but for the office, the store, the
shop, the school, the farm and
the house. Tombstone piety is
impressive in the moonlight, but
sunlight means health, happi-
ness, long life, success and con-
tentment.

In the matter of sugar beet
