GREAT LECTURE
LAST EVENING
In Spite of Rain Audience Heard Ex-
Gov. Hoch Deliver His Message
from Kansas at the Audi
torium.

Beyond a doubt one of the most
powerful, one of the most vigorous
and one of the most interesting ad-
dresses delivered from the lyceum
platform in this city in recent years
was delivered last night by eX-Gov-
ernor Hoch of Kansas, at the Audi
torium. under the auspices of the Y.
NJ. C. A.
1t was a beastly night from a
weather standpoint and rain was
falling steadily at the hour of the
lecture. yet several hundred people
made their way to the Auditorium,
and they were richly repaid for GO
ing out on such night. Those who
failed to hear the brilliant Kansan
missed something more than worth
while.
"A Message From Kansas" is a
great lecture. 1t is a message of
clean government. of honest and sin
cere administration of governmental
affairs. and a message of optimism.
Hoch is a man fitted for the delivery
of such a message. His sincerity,
his political cleanliness. his friend
ship for the masses were long ago
put to the test and proven.
In many ways 1t was unique
that inspires. that arouses enthusi-
asm and the kind that makes men
and women think and think deeply.
1t was a calm yet forceful, an EN-
phatic, yet fair, discussion of the
great reform questions that confront
the people of the nation. Absolute
| ly devoid of bitterness or personal
| rancor ii was talk that carried its
appeal to the hearts of even those
| who might differ with Governor
| Hoch on many Issues and many re-
form propositions.
AS we listened to Governor Hoch
| last night we no longer marveled at
| the wonderful influence this man
wields in his home state and has
welded for many years.
As we said before Governor
Hoch S message was one of optimism.
He certainly has no liberation for
the fellow who is eternally painting
dark pictures. He believes that the
old world is growing better in every
way all the time and he had reason
upon reason to offer in support of
his contention,
"A Message From Kansas" is @
message that makes any man or
woman better after hearing It, It's
a great series OF truths and pointed
arguments, clothed in plain and sim
pie yet beautiful and striking Ian
guage. with lot of clean good hui
NOR intermingled.
The appeal to young men, the
pointing out to them of the fact
that never were opportunities so
many or so golden for the youth of
the nation. formed one of the finest
portions of Governor Hoch's great
lecture. He made plain the fallacy
of the oft-repeated declaration that
'the poor boy has no chance in
these days" proving that never were
the chances for poor, in worldly
goods, to make good. so numerous
as they are today.
We are glad that Governor Hoch
came to Grand Junction, and we are
glad that he heard him last night

Our Wives" which opened at the

piece which rollicks with laughter,

SALARY CUT FOR LAJOIE
cieve!and's Star Will Be Asked to
Take $500 a Year.

For the first time since he became a
major league baseball player, nearly
sey enteen years ago, Napoleon Lajoie
will be asked to accept a cut in his
salary for 1913. Lajoie, it is said, has
been drawing at least $4,000 a year
from the Cleveland American league
club, but his new contract will call for
not more than $500 maybe less, so
the story goes
II seems that while Lajoie kept up
his wonderful batting last season, he
slowed up in his fielding, so that Man
aGer Birmingham thinks that in future
second base should be covered by a
faster man, possibly Olson. the big
Swede Lajoie may be moved over to
first base If Johnston, the youngster
secured from the Southern league last
summer, fails TO come up to expecta-
tons.
Then. again, Lajoie may be sent to
the outfeld if Johnston keeps OH hit
ting the way he did when he finished
last season in a Cleveland uniform.
Lajoie has earned 800. 900 in his base
ball carter He is SO years old.

RECEIVE CHECKS FOR
~" BUILDING FUND

Yesterday the work of sending out
notices to contributors to the Y. NJ.
c. A building fund was started at the
Office of the association. This morn
ine's mail brought in a number of
checks which had been mailed by
pl ompt remitters. That kind OF re-
sponse always brings JOY to the treas
uTer, for it makes him sure of having
money on hand to pay bills.
The third payment on pledges falls
due or the first of January, and when
that payment has been collected in
full, it will mean that three-ffths of
the entire S127,00 should be on nand.
Heavy payments will have to be met
ic a shcrt time and il is important
that the pledges be paid in promptly
in order that the funds may be avail
able for this purpose. The work which
has already been done on the bui.-ng
represents no small part of the total
cost of the entire plant, and i is for
tunate that an installment is due on
! pledges just at this time, so thsi no
! postponement of bills may be neces-
sary.
! In the notices being sent to contrib
utors. a little card is being included
bearing a picture of the new building
as it is to appear, together with de-
scription of some of its attractive
features and an announcement that
the building is to be opened by Oct. l,
1913. The picture, which is made from
I the architects design, helps to show
what a magnificent ediflce the building
/ is to be when completed.

WORK SUSPENDED

The bricklayers who have been at
work on the Y NJ. c. A. building had
to quit work today for lack of bricks.
They have done all that they can do
with the materials on hand, and will

proceeding with the work This does
not mean that all work will be sus-
pended, for there is much yet to be
done that will keep a force of men
busy, but it will hinder the progress
of the work considerably
