One Conspicuous Advance.
There has been but one conspicuous
advance made in the whole period of
their control, and that 1 am bound to

but steady and continuous. 1t has been
the advance in the expense of the adj
ministration of the State government.
| willingly agree that in the course Of
so many years some advance in cost
of government might be expected, but
the advance to be noted in this State
has not been delayed by waiting for
the slow growth of population or re-
tarded by decreasing revenues.
In 1895. when the distinguished gen.
tleman who later resigned the office to
become attorney general of the United

speeches by dramatic questions some

Can you leave the government in such

GREELEY FAILS TO LAND
ODD FELLOWS NEW HOME

Despite the fact that Greeley.
Fort Collins and other cities of
northern Colorado have made efforts
to get the home which the Odd Eel
lows are to construct, appears more
than probable that the home will
go to Denver. A. J. Condor, one
of the committee appointed for the
purpose of urging the bringing of
the home to this city. stated this
morning that all effort of Greeley
would probably be of no avail as he
has been informed by one OF the
head men in the organization that
Denver has practically been decided
upon as the location for the home.
Fort Collins is still making a
strong effort to obtain the home but
1t is stated that 1t is all decided that
the institution shall go to Denver.
Not only the towns in the north
ern part of the state but in the
south as we'll were making efforts to
obtain the home and now that it has
been decided to give it to Denver 1t
Is probable that efforts of the other
towns of the state will cease along
that line.
