No SENATOR

The finAl batale OF the ballots {or
OF the interests) that came Saturday
night In the house Of representa-
tives Of the eighteenth general as
sembly Of Colorado. when that hon.
ofable body was unable to agree on
. representative in the national law
making body. emphasizes further
the wisdom Of the election Of United
states senator's by the people.
Unless the governor shall call an
extraordinary session Of the IegisIa-
eject q senator, Colorado Is with
out one of the two senator's to which
it is entitled for the next two years.
In a congress that has q demo-
cratic majority. a democratic state
will be without democratic repre-
sentation. senator Simon Gug&en-

The pity OF it all has been dwelt
upon enough.
But In our sorest afflictiOns. our

comfort, for never again will the
legislature Of Colorado in regular

lege of electing . United States
senator. Then, ergo, there will
never he another Guggenheim sent
to Washington and never will there
be another session Of the general
assembly devoted to a squabble of
the diversified interests while the
people are clamoring for action.
Happily, a democratic majority
prevails in the national body and al
ready has demonstrated its fealty to
the people. This, In a measure.

COLLEGE WOMEN AS MOTHERS

What Is the effect OF a college
tralning on woman considered as
the future mother Of family? The
charge is frequently madethat altho
~ may make her filter to cope with
lie as an individual, It units her
1or maternity. Critics point out
that mans education Is largely de-
signed to Increase his efficiency as
the head of family. Should not
woman training be similarly
shaped? And how may we accom-
phsh this? These matters, accord

WORN OUT CONVENTIONS

Al last there is gradually coming
waning from conventions lons
since worn thread bare Their ab-
eolute uselsssness has been demon
strated for 10. these many years. but
the world fingers long wiki its
trou ublesome appendices. however
painful.
In the city OF New York. probably
the least conventional OF any in the
nation. a Less Lonely league has
been formed Those Who have felt
isolation know tha, II Is never SO
keen as in the midst of crowds OF
strangers. The new organization is
designed to bring together people
who would find happiness in know
ing each other. buh who. through
the dictates OF absurd convention
aiities, must remain forever strang-
ers
1t is pointed out that thousands
OF young people come to the big
city annually to work. They are
forced into rooming houses, board
ing houses and fats where they are
compelled to remain in their leisure
hours because not able financially to
attend theatres and places of amuse-
ment- II these people could meet
each other their lives would be
frightened and their loneliness dis
PEELED.
Such league might prove an
active agency for the common good
in every city in the country. Right
here in Greeley there are people
lonely in the midst OF crowds.
Here, also, would it be most
frightful breach for lonely young
man, upon observing lonely young
woman introduce himself on the
plea that he yearned for companion
ship. ii such a thing were found
out the Amalgamated Organization
for the Protection OF Defenseless
Young Women would have him
marked. his measure taken and a
life sentence in the penitentiary in
mind. The facts in the case might
show that in nine cases out of ten
both might welcome the unconven-
tional Introduction and in strange
city made far more enjoyable there
by.
In answer to this plea OF the
Less Lonely league there will come
the outcry that there are young
peoples societies in our churches,
dancing clubs, literary societies,
ETC., that cover every phase of this
question. Like many answers 1t
does not cover all of the ground.
These are bound by the same con-
ventions Of proper introductions.
proper credentials. proper financial
standing and other proper things
appalling to a stranger in a strange
land, who can not afford assuming
obligations that may prove onerous
Meanwhile the lonely will mingle
with the crowds, the victims of con-
vention until intelligence becomes
strong enough to oyerleap conven-
tiOns

 Yes said her sister in similar tone. I spose so'
 Ardelia still held the big creamy square which informed them in the most expensive of shaded old English lettering that Susanne Gish White had become the bride of Raymond Arthur Linscome. Susannes father was their cousin and although they had not seen him for many years they kept track of him through the newspapers. John Gish White was man who did things and the people he did usually objected violently in public print. Cousin Ar della and Cousin Annie were shocked at and yet secretly proud of their fa- nous relative. Susanne herself they had not seen since she was a doll-like wonder of ten, because since then she had been in finishing schools or in Europe
 Well" said Ardelia, 'what'll we send?"
 There was wrinkle of worry on her brow She wore her gray hair band ed down from central parting and was addicted to black dresses, with a bit of white tatting at the neck
 Well, what do you think?" queried her sister. who looked just like Ardelia but had fewer ideas.
 Tt can't be anything expensive, of course" Ardelia said. with little sigh "Still the cost doesn, so much matter. and I've no doubt John has seen to it that Susie has everything she really needs to start housekeep'ng,

 Miss Mildred had been shopping in the afternoon. She had met a gentle man of her acquaintance who had had the misfortune to lose leg and had a cork one to replace it. They had stood on street corner and chatted for five minutes. Mir. Osgood had passed by on the other side and noticed 1t and rom that moment a thundercloud rested on his intellectual brow.

 Now, then. 'spose I've got to wait here till the cows come home!"
 The next arrival was Charles Os- good.
 Then the bob-tailed trolley car rolled in from somewhere and there was third arrival. Miss Mildred Christie, who had been visiting coun- try relatives, walked in and took seat. Mir. Osgood gave gasp. The farmers wife uttered a chuckle. Mss Mildred was about to give start and turn pale when she brought all her resolution to bear and didn't do it.

 Th3y went downtown to Rendalrs store the next day to pick out the pres ents and had all the sensations of be- ing wildly extravagant as they found themselves surrounded by the glories of his new stock just in for the spring trade. The shelves were bril- liant and glittering.
 Finally. after eliminating the ban quet lamp that was $15 and the cut glass punch bowl that the agent had promised Kendall he could return 1T he didn't sell 1t, as he vowed he never could in that town, there was left a chop plate and vase.

 But finally they sent the chop plate, Kendall promised to pack it for them. It glittered with it's gilt edge and red roses and every time they remembered it they felt justified in the extravagant sum they had spent for 1t. There was only 50 cents left in the china pig.

turned out by the Geological Survey, has
been placed on public sale at the Sur

This map IL printed in four sections.
which pieced together make a map six
feet five inches high by five feet wide.
1t Is printed in forty-two colors and
tints, ranging from brilliant red to
