Clyde, O., Jan. 20, 1911,

To Mayor, Greeley, Colo.
Dear Sir: | have boy in or near
your place, or was there the last we
heard, which was last May. The
last letter we got from him was the
last of April, but in May there was a
young man that went west for his
health and stopped at your place to
see the boy on his way home, but he
was twelve miles out. so he did not
see him, but saw the man he was
working for. and he gave the name
to us as d. A. Camtield, and was the
owner of the largest hotel in your
place and the hotel was named after
him. We wrote to Camfield and the
| letter was returned short time ago.

Should Elect Only Right Man
Editor Greeley Tribune:

Dear Sir: 1t seems to me that not
only as democrats, but as citizens,
we ought to make our protest
against the election OF United
States senator to represent special
privileges. Not only is large ma
Jority OF the democrats of Weld
county in hearty sympathy with our
state platform, but a large majority
of the people of the state OF Colorado
are for the reforms which 1t recon-
mends and indorses. The efforts of
special privilege to elect senator
presents the strongest reasons why
our remaining reform measures, es-
pecially the direct primary and the
recall. should become laws as soon
as possible.
Fellow citizens, democrats and
republicans, we need laws for good
government, we want these laws
honestly administered, we want a
representative of good government
in the United States senate: we have
one representative of special privi-
lege there, and that is enough. Let
us make our wishes known, 1t will
do good, 1t will have an effect.
GEORGE Il. OSTERHOUT.

On December 10, est, the United

government had agreed to pay S15,-

Greeley agreed to made up the dif-

ed. These are the subscriptions that
are hoing collected now in order that
a dord may be turned over to the
government at the earliest possible
date
The plaintiffs in the suit decided
against them have until February
21 TO appeal their case TO the SUI

dently has but little expectation of
an appeal being made and no doubt
thai the highest court will sustain
the lower one in the case, as it has
sent word to have the deed prepared
for transferring the site to it within
30 days after the expiration of the
time for appeal. This will allow un-
til March 21 for the delivery of the
deed.
Although the government has
shown its disposition to go ahead

To The Tribune:


note the movement as published
in your columns towards the closing
in. crested; l have read with interest
YOUR excellent editorial on the sub
ject, and l arise in the defense of my
rights. Our theological brethren are
welcome to preach any sort of an OBJ
servance of the Holy day their prin-
ciples may prompt, from their pull
pits, for | believe this should be
purely matter of moral suasion;
but when they undertake to pre-
scribe a line of conduct for me re-
force my compliance. most decided
ly obejct. There is nothing compul-
sorry about going after the mail un-
der the present regulations. Any
minister, or church member, | infer.
is privileged to remain at home and
is not required to even read the daily
on Sunday if the carrier inadver-
tently leaves it at his door Neither
am anxious to engage in factious
religious discussion OF the subject.
Nothing is made by it in the end as
our theological friends ought to
know because If we admit the truth
of their own earnest and honest con-
fessions concerning lack of intiu-
ence of the churches on the people
in these times, they have been los
ing ground with every liberal mind
ed minister they have expelled or
compelled to resign from their ranks
on account of socalled "heresy' for
the past thirty years.
Not so long since our worthy post
master was induced. by some in
nuence to change the hour OF open
ing, which for years and years in the
past had been from IL a. m. to l p.
m. to the present practice of from
10 to II in the morning. No one
made formal objection to the charge
at the time, II my memory serves me.
but Just the same hundreds OF people
from that day to this have been
subject to annoyance and inconven-
.lence by the change. There may be
people in some instances accommo-
dated by the present delivery hour.
but I confess that l never discovered
one. Take the case of even the
church member. If he really desires
to get his mail he is hurried to get
ready after a late breakfast Sunday
morning for the opening at 10, in
order to be at the church service at
half past or quarter OF eleven. If
he is careful to get there before the
worldlings. say at a quarter to ten.
be may be fortunate enough to get
his mail and be on In time to enter
the sacred edifice of his choice with
out interrupting either singing or
service; otherwise he can stand in
line in a crowd for from forty to fifty
minutes. or 60 away without getting
his mail. On the other hand what
more convenient hour for everybody
than the old hour from IL to 1? The
civilian, non church member. can
proceed leisurely to shave and dress
and go down for his mail before din
ner. The church member can. IL he
is inconsistently desirous of doing
so. repair to the post office immedi-
ateyl after the close of the morning
sermon, and that. 1t seems to me at
the most convenient hour. not only
for his class but for every one in the
city.
Let us reason together now. Let
me implore my religious friends: for

SadricuS Has Thoughts on Sunday
Closing of Post Office

want to say that both respect and
esteem every one of the ministers OF
Greeley with whom | am acquainted,
to let up in their crusade in favor o.
n Sunday closing of the post office.
Let them consider that other class
of religious enthusiasts who are
equally Jealous in favor of observing
the sabbath, as are these people
who wish to have us observe Sunday.
, They think we desecrate Saturday
by doing any business. They would
not only close the post office on Sat
urday but would stop all trains from
/ running on that day. | know they
would for one OF their number
/ frankly told me as much. Let
our religious friends contemplate
the result of their continued
effort for years and years in
the past to have God recognized in
the constitution, and note the little
progress they have made.
Let them recall the nearly three
hundred years when the church was
rent over the question of the real
presence" in the sacrament and how
little stock any OF the churches take
in the doctrine now. Let them re-
member the gigantic struggle be-
tween the reformers and the presby-
ters and the Catholics which lasted
for two or three centuries during
which time they religiously murd-
cred and burned one another at the
stake, and took advantage of an oc-
casonal truce between their forces
to all unite in prosecuting and
hanging the witches. Let them con-
slider their own progress by rejecting
on the former attitude of both the
clergy and the people in this same
manner OF an observance OF Sunday.
They can easily recall the time when
it was considered displeasing to the
! Almighty and beside that punishable
under the Puritan laws of the New
England states to indulge in the
most innocent of amusements or rec
reations on the Holy day. When to
smile or kiss the wife or children
was an offense If not against the
laws at least against sound morals.
Many Of them can actually remember
that when President Lincoln was
| cruelty assassinated in Ford's theatre
on that fatal Sunday night SO many
years ago. there were not lacking
even at that late day fanatical people
who regarded it as just punishment
for attendance on a theatrical per-
formance on Sunday. I can myself
recall hours of mental anguish when
as a little tow-headed boy l was
tucked away in my trundle bed
alone. after a lecture by a sanity
aunt, long since gone to meet her
Maker, who told me that naughty
little boys who played on Sunday and
tore their breeches. as I had done,
would 90 to hell when they died and
be burned forever in q birthstone
fire.
| Finally l am constrained to invite
our religious brethren who are pro-
foundly moved to this measure in be-
half OF our moral reform to read
Andrew Lang's history of Scotland.
Lang is a fair, impartial historian
and a protestant: and in his preface
OF this invaluable history he makes
the singular but truthful statement:
I'VE enjoy the inestimable privilege
of modern religious free speech and
free thought as a rich heritage from
the Reformation: but neither Re
former nor Presbyter ever intended
to bequeath It,"
Very respectfully submitted,
| SATIRICUS.
