DOWN TO THE sAWDUST

The appropriations of the last general
assembly of Colorado, amounted to
$3,494 ,220, for the Shafroth admins
tration. This was $l,000,00O in excess
of the appropriations of any previous
legislature. The same legislature that
made this heavy and extravagant ap'
preparation is the one that is now IN
'"extry' session, and has added new
appropriations for their additional sal
aries, expenses, and clerical help, II
the sum of more than $lO1 900. In
order to obtain this latter amount or
part thereof, this legislature robbed the
state law library fund, and canal fund.
and is exploring all the financial nooks
and corners of the state treasury for
more money.
In the pioneer days of Colorado, when
was customary to sweep out and clean
up about once a week and work it over
for the lost gold dust.
The Shafroth administration is now
sawdust.'' The legislature is sweeping
every part of the state house, so that
no grain of gold dust, nor even penny
may escape. In the language of the
stock market. this legislature is long y
on appropriations, and "short' on
platform pledges. Yes, this democratic
administration, that is now down to the
"sawdust,'' and the Legislature that
has made appropriations in the regular
and "extry'' sessions in the sum OF
about $3,6OO,O0 has done more than
all this.
1t has spent the republican surplus.
At the close of Governor Buchtel's S
term, there was turned over to the
Shafroth administration, tresury bal
ance of $290,231.19 and balance of
unexpended appropriations amounting
to $155,o0o making total surplus of
F445, ,231.19.
All of this large republican surplus
of the Buchtel administration, amount
5ng to nearly half a million dollars, has
been used.
All the revenues of the past two years
has been exhausted.
The state law library and canal funds
have been robbed to run the "Extry'
session.
With ghoulish glee, democracy has
danced about the coffns of the dead,
for inheritance tax. to assist in paying
these extravagant appropriations.
The funds of the mute and blind were
Sn danger, but nothing available could
be found here, and now,
The Shafroth administration is

THE OTHER DAY the supreme court

THE OTHER DAY the supreme court
of this state did the only thing self
| respecting supreme court could do
knocked out Shafroth s freak election
expense law otherwise known as the
two bit' law, but they might as well
have left it in effect so far as saving
to the taxpayers of the state, for no
sooner had the supreme court declared
that the> fund appropriated and set
aside under this supposed law could not
be used for the benefit of paving the
campaign expenses of the political par
ties, until the Legislators in "uxtry'
session, with Rhoay Kennehan's per
mission. pounced down upon it and had
soon gobbled it up at the rate of seven
plunks per day for each man who has
idled away his time at state expense
for the past seventy days. 1t seems
that after all the politicians were
bound to have that money, one way or

BE criticism has often been made
by those who are ever on the
wsrpath OF reform that thinking

and that modern inventions tend TO
make man mentally lazy

These garn.tUres are made in al

other transparent fabrics. and truly de-

round cut at the neck and elbow sleeves
Some few are finished with satin belt,
while others have a broad ribbon sash

Other garnitures that are not so com

Straight Lines of Mftady
Cbangedto Graceful CnrUes

The keenly observant will take note
Of the subtle way in which the pain
fully straight lines Of last season have
been changed into graceful curves.
The new coats are FAR removed from
the cut that predominated In the au-
tumn and early winter models. Curved
seams are being introduced, and varia-
tions OF the IapeIs, fastenings. and
lower lines are very noticeable
FTounces and pleatings have invaded
the realm Of afternoon and evening COS
tuuees, while a decided fullness at the
waist is evident.
The masculine coat sleeve is giving
place 10 the slightly full shape OF the
coming jacket, and capes are actuadly
promised for the attainment OF the
rounded effect. It is probable that the
heroic attempts Of femininity to keep
down the avoirdupois may be allowed
TO lapse, although It is hardly neces-
sary to add that the appreciation for
curved lines IS not likely 10 be mani
tested with any startling celebrity.

Poultry Remains Firm

As in spring the young mans fancy

hen on the poultry farm has a hunch

TUNIC OVERBLOUSE IN NEW FORM
Daily Fashion Talks.
BY FRANCES CARROLL.


THE chiffon overblouse or tunic- Is
one of the pronounced fads of the
season, and the drawing I am pre-
senting today shows the tunio over
blouse in its most accepted and newest
form. Wholly transparent and entirely
separate from the garment it adorns.
this attractive accessory to a modish
womsn's wardrobe occupies the position
really Of a separate waist
The idee IN the tunics Is TO give varia-
ton to ones costumes. Made in any
preferred color they are worn with SIM
pie frocks and although the model pic
tured is worn over a lingerie gown,
cacheInire de sole tussah or satin, in
black, white. or any plain color, would
be equally feasible as a background for
the blouse.
A special point Of interest in connec-
tion with this latest form Of the tunic
blouse is the color combination. At
the present moment Paris Is going quite
wild over a bright, clear blue which
without some toning down process would
be rather harsh. Properly screened or
combined with fllmy chiffon of a con-
trasting shade, however, the effect is at
once swagger and becoming
In addition to this variation In the
color effect the garment itself shows
varied cOlors, the tunic blouse shown
today having the yoke and upper sleeves
cut in one piece from black chiffon.
while the lower blouse and sleeve pOr-
tions are made Of bright blue.
