state, but after everything possible has been done
make the situation democratically harmonious, if
New York state does not want harmony that doesn't
say the country doesn't.
To a man who feels assured that there is no hori-
and no zenith outside of New York this was dis
quoting, and it took Mr.. Ridder some time to re-
cover the Gotham poise.
Then Mr.. Ridder told Mr. Bryan that he would op-
pose him at Denver and support him if he secured
the nomination, although he was so unaccomodatng
as to refuse to get out of the way in Difference to
down east opinion That was decent in the German
moulder of opinion and the public will be inclined
to more strongly commend his afterthought than
his forethought.

New York would go against him and that it was his

Sharply Criticised.

Many conscientious citizens of Idaho, striving to
arrive at just conclusion in their contemplation
of the final act in hideous tragedy, will confess
themselves to be in sympathy with the following ut
terances of the Ceur d. A1ene Press in its dissec-
ton of the Orchard case:
That a gallery play worthy of the gods of
crime enacted at Boise yesterday, with Governor
Gooding, Attorney General Guheen, Secretary of
State Lansdon and Harry Orchard as the chief act
ors. Orchard was the star tragedian and the others
filled the role of supporters in the drama whereby
the murderer of Ex-Governor Steunenberg and
dozen other persons, the arch criminal of the age,
is pardOned and sent to felons cell for life, instead
of being compelled to pay the penalty of his crime
as decreed by the court The act of these officials
is infamous and they step from official into private
life the word oblivion" should be written across
their pathway in bold black letters The pardon
IS undoubtedly the carrying out of program which
began with the arrest and confession of the muir
derer and Orchard played his part we'll by offering
himself sacrifice to the gallows and insisting on the
sentence being carried out when he knew that deaf
ear would be turned to the peadings of a towards
soul.
The play we'll staged and executed as the most
damnable human drama that disgraced Idaho
Conceived in crime, it ended in crime, and permits
the most depraved wretch that ever set foot on Ida
no soil to tread the earth within the walls of
states prison. there to become living disgrace to all
other criminals confined within its walls where it is
hoped he may remain to be Stunned and Kissed by his
associates as the man who has a dozen times been
branded with the mark of Cain.
Orchard lives and the death of Steunenberg is I'm
avenged. Who will shoulder this terrible response
bll1ty for saving the life of the who committed
the foulest crime that blackened the fair name
of Idaho, my Idaho. Let us draw the veil of Grape
over this tragedy and forget its horrors as we blot
from memory the names of the officials who are
responsible for the last act.

Why Not Club.

The members of the Why Not club
and their friends gathered at the
home of Miss May Scott Thursday
evening, the occasion being a Hal
lowe'en party. The decorations were
in orange and black, as befitted the
date, the electric light bulbs being
covered with orange colored tissue
paper, whereon black cats and
witches posed in silhouette. The
candlesticks on the tables had shades
of orange and black, and almost ev-
erywhere cobwebby moons and
witches, black cats, and all the other
adjuncts of Halloween greeted the
guests. In the hall was "raggedy
man." who had no heart and every
one tried to afiix one to him, being
somewhat hampered in their efforts,
however, by the fact that they were
all blindfolded when they made the
attempt. The time-honored games
were INDUCED in and nice supper
was served by the hostess. Fortunes
telling was a feature of the evening.
The guests all enjoyed the affair
greatly and remained until a late
hour.

Wins Scholarship.

Word has been received here that
Dan Thomas, son Of Mr.. and Mrs c.
H. Thomas, for years residents OF
Greeley, but now living on their
ranch near Ault, has won q scholar
ship that entities him to a year of
study abroad. There are five of
these prizes offered at the school in
Boston which Mr.. Thomas attends.
and 1t is a great credit to the Colo
RADIO boy to win one of them. It is
said that some time ago Mr.. Thomas
wrote to his parents asking them
what they thought of a years study
abroad, but giving no hint that he
might get one of the scholarships.
A day or two ago second letter
came. written on the steamef which
was actually carrying him to Europe
Although in this letter (the story
runs), he asked II he might go, his
father and mother naturally felt that
there was but one answer possible
even had they been opposed to hii
going. OF course. it is fine oppor.
tunity for any student, and everyone
IL glad to remember that the honor
has come to one of Greeleys young
men.

A friend in need Is friend, in
deed, and one would scarcely ex
pect to find that keeper would dis
cover such a friend in his prisoner
1t is true. however, that deputy sher
III Peterson made such a discover.
Thursday, and was saved from th'
attack OF a big vicious fellow by two
of his older prisoners. Mr.. Peterson
had just brought the man from Ea
ton. and when they reached the jai
door. the big fellow got balky and re-
fused to. enter He was handcuffed
however, and the deputy succeeded
in pushing him through the door
On the inside he removed the come
alongs" and ordered the prisoner to
enter a cell. He made the demand
four or five times, but the big fell
low paid no attention to him. He
saw that he would have to use force,
and started back to lock the door,
when the big fellow made spring
for him from behind. Two other
prisoners. who have been serving a
six months sentence, were standing
by, and when the big fellow tried to
reach Peterson, one of them landed
on his jaw with right swing. knock
ing him back against the wall, where
he fell in a heap, and the other
jumped on him and held him down
until Peterson placed the handouts
on him again and finally yanked him
into a cell.
Anyone who imagines that a jail
or has a pleasant duty might pay
visit to the local institution at the
present time.
it contains twenty-eight prisoners
at the present time, for offenses
ranging from murder down to petit
larceny and bootlegging. The quar-
ters are small and the offenders are
crowded in like sardines. The most
of all these is the Ross,
alias. Burke, woman who was incar-
cerated Wednesday. She has been
yelling for whiskey ever since she
was jugged. and according to the
turnkey. knows more swear words
than any man in the establishment.
Prisoners are allowed to have to-
selves. Mrs. Ross had not been in
ten minutes when she rendered the
money and demanded the deputy to
get her two packages of scraps"
The tobacco was brought and Mrs.
Ross placed a good sized handful in
one corner of her jaw and began to
with the utmost felicity.
When the jailor returned the.
woman's cell looked like a No.3 ir-
rigating ditch, and che package OF
the Mail Peach mad disappeared. She
was given a mop and compelled to
clean up her cell. and was furnished
with = four-gallon pail for a cuspi-
dor.
To Mr.. Peterson the idea of Mrs
Ross's company for probably the
next six months or more is not great
ly flattering.
If Weld county does not amend its
morals suddenly larger Jail Will
have to be erected.
