Charley live at Gunnison. while Mrs
z. J. Ready is at Lake City and Mrs.
Hattie Hill resides in Denver
The death Of Mr.. Bates while not
unexpected, vet causes a feeling Of
sincere sorrow among our GunnIson
folks. 1t removes from our midst
kindly familiar figure, that of a
good and respected citizen whose
departure will be genuinely regret
ted.

BY Miss Josephine ZugeIder, Senior Enelis
tlass- hunuisun County High school.
The school and State are very
closely related, the State having the
entire responsibility for the educa-
ton within its borders
Even IN ancient times State sys-
tens of educations were found.
The Roman Government regulated
education to some extent, and the
emperors endowed many institutions
of learning
With the fall of the Roman En-
pire the Church assumed control Of
the education. But later again,
after the Reformation it was placed
in the hands OF the State.
In the United States the control
and supper. of the education Of the
people have been left to the State
Governments.
The Ordinance of l1o1 provided
that one section OF each township
should be set aside for school lands,
and this has been made a rule for
the advantage of every new State.
Each State now maintains a
system Of free public schools and
with the development Of this systeT
the supervision of the State has
become more and more prominent
New York created a Superinten.
dent Of Common Schools and today
there are State Superinteudeuts iu
all the States.
Wisdom and knowledge must he
diiiused among the people for It Is
necessary for the preservation If
their rights and liberties.
The States should also see 10 the
proper distribution of schools and
colleges; most Of the patronage is
lecal, and hardly one student out 0f
four will GO more than one hundred
miles from home 20 attend college
There should be a good school in
every community, and if there IS
rot, the State does not give proper
chance TO its young people to receive
higher education The school
should be in the midst of conn l.
nifty and in this way it will become
center of intellectual life.
The school prepares the individu-
al for entering upon the duties Of
citizenship and it is the good citi-
zen that makes the State.

LEGISLATOR However, 1t develops
that the platform democrats are a
clear majority IN the assembly
There Is difference OF o2in,on and
that is we'll, tor out of the long dis
cusslon has come the compromi ,
II opinions, which IN the end effects
the best legisiAtion. Instead of the
first two months being wasted, IT
has been use! 10 splendid advantage
by the committees and the iegisla-
tive bodies IN whipping the bills in
10 shape, eliminating the dead mat
ter and taking inventory Of where
they are at.
The Wild charges Of the Denver
Republican, Pueblo Chieftain and
such men as Senator DeI.ong that a
deal had been entered into between
the platform democrats and the in
surgents to pass the primary bill at
the expense Of the local option, is alb
solutely false. The obnoxious Cary
bill stands very little chance
of passing the senate or Of being
signed by Governor Shafroth il it
should reach him
The compromise upon the direct
primary bill was agreed upon first
by the conference committee consist
ing of Scott, McCue, Hicks, Helbig
and Ward; McCue dissenting. Later
it was brought before the house
caucus, where Representative Lehr-
ritter brought the issue of leaving
out the convention feature sqnarely
10 vote III such way that the plat
form democrats won with ease The
secret ballot feature is left in, and
this News-Cham pion has always
favored. The idea is that in going
10 the primary booth YOU are handed
the ballots of all parties pinned to-
gether and no questions ASKED as TO
party You vote for the candidates
of your party that You want nomi-
mated, dlscarding the other ballots.
OF course there is danger that for
instance republicans might all vote
for weak candidate on the demo-
cras ,lcket for some office, bat this is
not likely to occur outside OF city
machine politics, for mighty few
people would want to loose the
chance 10 vote for favorites on their
own party ticket for a score Of offices

weak opponent.
