The Price Of Peace.

1.-THE price of peace is obedience to
law" said Mr.. Wickersham in his
speech Friday night defining the corpo-
ration policy of the Taft administra
ton. "Those who honestly try to
keep the law need not fear nrosecu-
ton.
What a commentary on the past adj
ministration of.justice when the Attor-
ney-General of the United States
deems it necessary to issue such
proclamation In any other civilized
country it would be taken as matter
of course that obedience to the law
need not fear prosecution. Yet Mr..
Wickersham, and every man who
heard his speech, know that such has
not been the case in this country, and
that, followed literally, his statement
means radical departure from
methodist that hitherto prevailed in
Washington.
For years the price of peace was
liberal contribution 70 the Republican
national campaign fund. It was TAX
en- for granted that il Wall street pro
vided the sinews Of war Wall street
need not trouble itself much about the
interstate commerce law and the anti
trust law. Hannaism represented i'm
munity for corporations that were gen
erOus in financing the party of great
moral ideas. B -
Under the Roosevelt administration
the price of peace was anything that
happened to suit the political purposes
of the Executive. The Steel Trust
received a Presidential license to alb
sorb the Tennessee Coal and Iron
Company. The Tobacco Trust was
prosecuted for a similar absorption of
competitors. After one of the Vice
Presidents of the New Haven Rail-
road, in his Capacity as member of the
Republican national Committee from
Connecticut, refused to vote for Mr..
Roosevelt's candidate for Chairman of
the National Convention, proceedings
were Instituted against that corpora
tion under the Sherman law. The
president is reported to have said, and
it has never been denied, that eff
MeIlen can't control BROKER | can't
control Bonaparte.
The Attorney General defined his
own attitude toward the duties of mis-
Office by boasting that it would be
poor shot who could not bring down at
bird or two out of the covey. The
fact is notorious that Hartman was
never troubled by the Roosevelt ad-
mlnistrarion until after he had refused
to contribute to "My Dear Sherman's"
Congressional campaign fund in 1906. z
Wall street never had any illusions
as to the price of peace. If the price
of peace hereafter is to be simply
obedience to law, regardless Of pull or
prejudice, M. Taft has already affect
ed revolution in the administra ton
OF justice.

Essence Of Culture

The very essence Of culture is shak-
ing off the nightmare of self-conscious-
ness and self-absOrption and attaining
a sort Of Christian Nirvana-lost in
the great whole Of humanity, thinking
of others, caring for others, admiring
and loving others.-E. R. Sill.

81 YEARS

Fifty-seycn years is long
span in the human life and few
marriages are ever permitted to
extend over such II long period
of time. Usually death throws
its ruthless and merciless shadow
across the pathway along which
the man and woman may be
treading happily together year
after year. long before even the
fifticth milestone of welded life
is reached. Therefore il is very
unusual indeed for couple to be
able to celebrate the fifty-sev-
cnth anniversary of their mar
riage but such rare privilege
has come TO MIR. and Mrs. W. o.
Parmenter, well known resi-
dents of the Clifton-Palisade
district of this county.
Fifty-seven years ago today Mr.
and Mrs. Parmenter were united in
marriage. Today they are celebrating
the happy anniversary at their cozy
little home adjoining the home of
their son, J. w Parmenter, one of
the best known fruit growers of the
valley. located 8 miles east of Grand
Junction.
The aged couple are today receiv-
ing sincere congratulations and best
wishes from their friends and neigh
bors and all hope that they may live
to celebrate their 10th anniversary.
Mr.. and Mrs. Parmenter celebrated
their golden wedding. the fiftieth an
niversary, seven years ago at Chari-
ton. Iowa, the old home, surrounded
by old friends and neighbors who had
known them for at least AZ of the
80 years. j. w. Parmenter, the only
son, went from Grand Junction to
attend the golden wedding celebra-
ton. Later the aged couple moved
to this valley.
The aged couple are in good health
and their long life together has been
happy one.

until these and other time and energy
saving improvements are demanded.
In places much smaller than Delta the

"A standard typewriter with a desk.
This enables the superintendent to ex-
pedite his clerical work and prepare
his correspondence and reports in good

the Central building should be protected

trance doors, etc.)
There have been enrolled in the
Delta schools to date, 1926 pupils of
proper school age. OF this number
i43 were enrolled in the High School.
The course of study for the grades
and High School have been revised and
the standards advanced.
Our High School has been placed
upon the fully accredited list of the
North Central College and High School
Association. This places the Delta
High upon an equal rank with the first
class High Schools of the United
States Our graduates can now ent.
higher institutions of any rank and
place and receive recognition. This has
been made possible because of the sup
port we have received from this Board
of Education. The public sentiment
suggests the kind of men who are to
he responsible for its school standards.
hence when broadminded men are
upon a Board of Education it is because
the community sense is up to that
plane.
On behalf of the faithful teaching
force that | represent we want you to
know that we appreciate the support
you have given US.
Very sincerely yours,

1t is with sorrow that we bid the

We will never forget the associations
and friends which have come to US III
the four years of our High School life.
Although our assigned tasks have made
us work hard and we have not always
mastered them, yet we know that our
lives will be stronger because of them.
By coming in contact with our faithful
teachers we have been inspired to nobler
and better thoughts, and we realize
that life is not merely dream and
a bed of roses, but is full of struggles
and ambitions. We will try to be
credit to our alma mater so that she
will be proud of her class of '09, and.
wherever we are, we will do good and
make the world better by our living
presence. Our ideals will always be
kept above and before US so that we
may grow each day to broader mind.
In our day dreams we will think
things that will help US in later years

| trust that your Committee on
Teachers and Salaries will consider a
plan being adopted in all leading and
well regulated schools whereby the
wages paid your teachers shall be
based upon a well graded schedule.
There are at least three classes of
teachers in every school who are worthy
| of consideration, towit: Q) Those with
collegiate training and successful ex-
perience and who have shown natural
ability to inspire and control themselves
and others. (2) Those who have had
professional training in recognized
Normal School, and who have shown
by experience that they can teach, pro-
vided they are alive to their calling
keeping themselves familiar with mod
ern methods. (3) Those with bodies
and minds fitted for teaching coupled
with proper ability to govern and en-
thuse their pupils.
Thus in schedule there might be
three classes definitely defined. known
as classes "a, "B' and &C" In
each a definite beginning salary and
graded advance for successful SER
vices in the district.
A good teacher is worth more to a
