States and during one of his memoir
able visits to Colorado, in one of his
public utterances, Theodore Roose-
welt said: Build permanent and at
tractive highways throughout your
state and you will become the swift
erland of America and the playground
Of the world"
Recognizing the great truth of this
statement and the vast benefits to ac-
crue to our commonwealth through
this medium, We declare for a com
prehensive system of roadbuilding in
our state which shall conform to a
General plan approved by our state
highway commission.
We recommend the enactment Of
such laws by the next legislature of
Colorado as will enable counties IN

NXiv Psalm and pronounced the invocation
following which a quartet sang The AoaS

placed In the cornerstone was read. Then
the huge stone was slowly lowered Into

gave the formal explanation Of the maple
ments of Masonry. Then followed the tfst-
ing OF the stone, the announcement thA It
had been well laid and the singing OF
America by the audience.
During the few hours preceding the lay
ing Of the stone there was a scramble to
get records deposited in the new stone. All
the articles that had been taken from the
old cornerstone were transferred to the
new receptacle and i'm addition we've placed

and crisp as they were when buried in

the Nebraska Waterman were just as new
as though they had Just been run off the

number Of Japanese, Chinese and other
coins that had been donated by julius
Meyers. An interesting feature was the
old "shln-plaster" paper money in small
denominations running from Q cents TO 80
cents.
In the bottom OF the box was a thin brass
tablet or sheet on which had been engraved
the history of the court house and the
names OF state and county officials at that
time. 1t stated that S1ss, 900 had been APP

BY this means the court rooms are re-

With moderate weather and unhampered
by the delays over which the contractors
have no control, the builders hope to have
the building ready for delivery early in the
spring of 1911. A large force Of men is now

Flags floated from the tome Of the old
court house and flags, too, were hung
about the platform, where the services
Were held. From the pinnacle Of the
huge derrick that held the big stone sus-
pended above its resting place the Stars
ana Stripes swung in the cold wind. On
the platform fires had been kindled by the
workmen in the sheet iron stoves in order
to make the work for the masons more
pleasant.
At noon on the appointed day the Dou-
glas County Association of Nebraska PI-
oneers gathered for its annual midwinter
picnic, planning to view the cornerstone
services. Owing to the severity Of the
weather the pioneers gave up the plan
Of marching to the court house in a body,
remaining in session in their warm rooms
during the service. A delegation was
elected to be present on the platform with
the masons during the service. The de-
achment was headed by w. I. Kierstead
