large Importance to the extent of the
operations by market pools and elob-

have figured in the advance In prices

has been the awakened public demand

restoration of trade TO the activity at

OF recognized judgment and authority
in the financial world have voiced the
conviction without reserve that the
coming era of trade and industrial ac-
uFlty and accompanying prosperity
was TO rise 10 new high levels. The

The estimates for the probable enact

Noble IIulnn-

Life Is q great word 1t is a larger
word than religion or goodness or
character. Fullness of life-that is
what we want. IN our efforts toward
right living, We often fail, not for
want of a pure and strong purpose, but
because we have not in ourselves
enough vital force to give effect TO
our purpose. We are like an engine
which does not do its work we'll, be-
cause II has not sufficient head OF
steam on. The secret Of noble and JOY
ful living lies largely in putting our
selves In steady communication with
the reservoirs diyinely set for the sup
ply OF mans soul.-George s. Mer.

HOW A PREACHER BE-
GAME A GOVERNOR

While great many members or
the church have been called to the
high offices or state, the people have
seldom gone to the ranks OF the min
istry for material. This is because
but few feel that their work lies along
those paths. Chancellor n. A. Buch-
tel OF Denver, Colorado, and n Metbo-
dist Minister, has been one of tho
few to occupy chair or governor. IL
came about In this way: The poll
tics OF Colorado were badly mixed
three years ago and the candidate
chosen by the Republican State con-
vention for governor refused to run,
being dissatisfied with others on the
ticket The state committee was COM
pelled TO look for some one else.
Many were mentioned. but rejected
for reasons then apparent. Finally
without warning the committee offer
ed the nomination to Rev. H. A. Buch-
tel, chancellor of the University or
Denver Favorable support from the
people was evident at once and the
preacher won the election with Large
majority and held his Office well, it
is said
From the Denver Republican:
His addresses were cpoch-maklng,
mastery, and facts Of political history
were presented IN n clearer and more
scholarly and more convincing way
than ever before IN any campaign in
Colorado.
Chancellor Buchtel scored great
personal victory. He made whirl
wind campaign. and he gained whirl-
wind victory. He grew upon the peo-
pie every day. They believed In him
and in his sincerity. The splendid
triumph under his leadership Is the
biggest ever recorded In the city or
Denver.
On the morning of victory. the Re-
publican again predicts that he will
make an IDEAL, progressive executive,
worthy to stand with the greatest.
Everybody is pleased and satisfied.
The BuchteI motto OF Smile and
Push" has become contagious.

VETERANS AND CITIZENS
OBSERVE MEMORIAL DAY


The Grand Army of the Republic,
represented by the DlX-Logan post OF
Ogden, Will carry out an elaborate
program during the day. They will
first visit the Ogden cemetery, then
the Mountain View cemetery, and at
both places appropriate exercises
Will be observed and the graves or
those gone before will be decorated.
After the services at the burial
grounds. they will go to the Ogden
canyon sanitarium where services
commemorative of the dead naval he
roeS Will be conducted.
1t is expected that todny's program
Will be the most elaborate OF any for
number of years, and 1t Is also an
ticipated that there Will be an ex-
ceedingly large attendance at the cem-
eterles. Sunday services were held at
the Congregational church yesterday
afternoon, at which Prof. w M. Nc
Kendrick of the Weber academy de-
livered the memorial address. 1t was
an able effort and much appreciated
by those in attendance. The church
was we'll filed with people and the
impressive.
The address Of Prof McKendrick
waS a mastery tribute to the boys
who donned the blue or the grey as
duty directed, and went forth to fight
for principles dear to them. Actual
conditions throughout the war proved
IL to be 'rich mans war and poor
mans fight said Prof. McKendrick,
while the exegencies of war forced
when the din of battle was over, they
were as brothers.
Professor McKendrick drew several
word pictures tending TO show that
through it all the feeling Of brother
hood was strong within the hearts of
the men who were at war. Privates
on picket duty, he said. In many in
stances made mutual agreements not
to fire at each other. and traffic In
the little necessities of life was often
carried on between them. Sugar. cot
fee tobacco, etc. were exchanged and
the friendliest feeling prevailed
Another incident which Professor
McKendrlck told was that of General
Gordon and General Barlow. The two
officers were born In the same town
and had been lifelong friends. Up to
the time of the Civil war they had
been inseparable. but when the time
came for them to choose on which side
to fight, one chose the federal and
the other the confederate cause 1t
so happened that they were In close
proximity to each other during prac-
tlcally the whole OF the campaign, and
many were the little couTtcsies ex-
changed between the two They met
some fifteen years later in Washing
ton. d. C, each having supposed the
other to be dead and the reunion OF
the two veteran campaigners was one
never TO be forgotten.
Yesterdays program was arranged
in such way as to be most pleasing
to the veterans and was carried out
in Its entirety.
The amount Of the offering could
not be learned, but 1t was OF generous
proportions, rs one of the ushers In
charge of the collection said he had
about all he could do to carry the
plate with one hand when he reached
the end Of his row The money will
be used to defray the expense of the
floral tribute to the departed veter-
ans.
