Old King Cole

MY first trip to Bendoo brought me INTO contact with
1A one of the native celebrities OF the country, Old
King Cole Cole ruler Of the Bendoo country and
reminded of the merry monarch who hgITeS III the
nursery Jingle. In his early days he had been PLAIN
Iohn Cole native trader who had built up extensive
commercial relations with European and American
houses who owned central factory with branches IN
half dozen towns and whose wealth IN money goods,
and slaves was estimated being away up the thou-
sands.
By some peculiar combination Of descent and events
Cole woke up one fine morning discover himself heir
to one of the native thrones, and, deem1ng Kingdom
valuable family asset he cast aside his civilized garb
sold his factories and adjourned to Bendoo where he
proceeded to lord his newly acquired subjects as
becomes an African potentate.
When nv presence at BendOO became known a mes
senger brought invitation to call upon his MAJ
esty, and on accepting Cole gave us truly Moham1re
dan welcome, placing anything and everything at my
disposal gave and my boys houses to stay 1n pro
vided food and servants and gave to understand
that the earth was mine if could only muster up
age to ask for it. Innate mOdesty, the hand OF PrOv1
ence or some other strange power, restrained me from
being too rapaCious in my demands. And lucky 1t
for learned ere long that It expected by the natives
that all favors rendered should be repaid tenold.
However Cole and parted with the best OF feelings
and good opinion of each other, condition OF affairs
that proved many times be OF great value my
tact with some of the people farther inland, which
glad to state exists to this day. His Carboniterous
Majesty is now aged end deCrepit and ornaments a
throne that war famine, and gin have reduced to a
mere nominal affair; but seTiOCCaslOnaly there wan
ers across the sea message of good will and token Of
the regard he has for his friend Bolyki.

A Cole-Black Session

EARLY the next morning we started across the lake
Il at nine o'clock, and at rounded BendOo

At the house of the Cheftan met King Cole and the

On the evening of the third day Black YEARLY followed
Mono as he climbed the hill. Setting the man bag
down on the veranda the boy looked at shook his
head and walked away, which plainly meant that he
had no desire to talk Black came up looking rather
pale and haggard and trife worn around the edges
The symptoms were familiar, and from previous obser

The advanced ideas of citizenship
expressed by Hon. l. N. Stevens. Re-
publican candidate for congressman
at-large, at the meeting in Bower
hall Wednesday evening in which he
placed the man above the party met
with a very hearty response in
the thought of every one present.
Mr.. Stevens standard of modern
politics is rational and sensible and
appeals strongly to the sensible
voter of today. He advocates educa-
tional advancement by which the
people shall become self-governed,
rather than leaving the making of
political states to party machines.
This he believes will ultimately
come through the adoption of meas
ures like the headless ballot. Some
of the party leaders still delude
themselves with the idea that the
people are not capable of thinking
for themselves in public matters but
the wiser ones are keeping their
ears close to the ground and noting
the trend of the times.-Palisade

Two-Bit Law is Nil.

When the supreme court of Colo
RADIO issued an oral opinion Monday
that the Shafroth "two-bit bill' was
unconstitutional, it removed the
right from Governor Shafroth to
claim that any administration" law
worthy of note, passed by either
the regular or extra sessions, was on
the statute books. Outside of this
bill the only work of note that either
session has accomplished, save the
Iniative and Referendum constitu-
tional amendment, which was pass
ed by Republicans, was the passage
of the appropriation bills.-News

The dry farming sections of Colo
rado have been more than previous
ly favored with rain, every year
since those methods came into vogue
half dozen years ago. While the
present season has been rather a
severe test, the eastern, or dry part
of the state has had more rain than
the western part, where there was
water with which to irrigate and
raise crops. 1t can hardly hold good
that this extra rain was caused by
increased area in cultivation, as in
that argument it should apply to on
part of the state as well as anothe
The plan of deep cultivation no
doubt helps the crop results, but a
plenty of water is of greatest i'm
portance, and until a real test year,
or series of dry years comes to Off

retain some suspicion regarding the
practibility of dry farming.

In practically all the surrounding
town papers are weekly notices of
bootlegging cases being prosecuted.
This is in direct contrast with Delta
and speaks well for the law-abiding
qualities of our people. During the
past two or three years there have
been perhaps two or three petty
cases of liquor peddling prosecuted.
These were handled so severely
that very few, even if inclined so
to do. would attempt it again. Here
some fellow oversteps the bounds a
little and gets his foot in it about
once a year.
