THROWING AWAY THE SCHOOL
LANDS

The absolute disregard which the
present state administration. has for tn"
welfare of the people of the state IS
clearly shown by its administration OF
the school lands of Colorado. The poll
cy of the previous administrations has
always been to hold these lands for sale
only to actual settlers, and this policy
should be adhered to. The Shafroth
administration, however, has signally
failed in its duty in this particular.
During the two years of the MacDon
aid administration. but $4,000 acres of
land were sold. and this il. small parcels
to those who proposed to live upon it.
During the first seventeen months of
the Shafroth administration, over 300,-
600 acres of school lands have been
sold. In one instance some "a 900 acres
were disposed of in one body. and gen
orally speaking, the principle of selling
lands to settlers has been wholly de-
| have gone to spectators, and at the
present rate it will not be many years
before all the valuable lands now owned
by the state and held for the school
fund will have been parted with.
This is but one instance of the reck-
less disregard which the Shafroth ad-
ministration has had for the welfare
and future of Colorado and her people.

THE NEWS in the average newspa-
per is well worth the price of subscrip-

act of charity TO the editor, for the
business man gets more than his

gives away large sums each year in the
way of free advertising to its commu

storekeeper would give away as much
of his stock for the public welfare as
the newspaper gives of its stock in

SPORTING NOTES
CUBS WIN BATFEST
IN NINTH INNING
Evers and Sheckard Are the
Villains With Stick; Over

start of four runs in the first inning,
as if to make things interesting, the
Cubs romped up from behind. tied the
count in the third, won't ahead in the
fourth. let the enemy catch up In the
fifth, then won in the last half of the
ninth by a score OF to 8, with several
parasangs TO spare.
The pill walloping of J. Trojan Evers
and j. Tilden Sheckard was the nois-
lest feature of the game and their bats
were responsible for the victory. Evers
raped out two three baggers and a
single while Sheckard was accumulat-

These two Cubs manned the heaviest
guns in the third inning rally, par
ticipated prominently in the scoring OF
the fourth round and, between them

ninth before a Cub had been retired
Their six hits were good for twelve
bases and for five of Chicago's sever

long distance deal but for a startling
feat OF spectacular work by Paskert
which robbed the home run swattel
of at least three Dagger in the sec
