Patriotic SerD;ce
at Presbyterian
Church Sunday

On Sunday evening the Presbyteri-
an church will have an unusually
interesting service. A patriotic SER
mon will be combined with a social
concert by the male quartette, COM
posed of Messrs. Kiefer, Tope, Benge
and Vorbeck. Rev Edwards Will
preach a sermon on national topics,
the subject being Gods Hand in the
History of Our Country The ad-
dress just at this time will be of i'm
mense interest, as the question is be-
ing widely discussed as to whether
we, as a nation, will be the people
through whom the Creator will full
fill the prophecies. Are we meeting
the expectations of God, or are we
going to travel the route taken by
other nations who failed to meet His
requirements? 1t will be a sermon
that every patriotic citizen should
hear. The musical program will be
an unusually fine one. The regular
choir will be dismissed. The quar-
tette will be assisted by Mrs. Carl +.
Kiefer. One of the attractive num-
bers will be a male quartette with a
soprano obligato solo.

Master Mechanic j. l.. Fagan of the
Grand Junction shops and roundhouse
is now in Chicago, attending the Ma
tional Master Mechanics Association
convention, which closes May 26. He
is taking active part in the conven-
ton, due to his great prominence. No
master mechanic in Colorado is any
better known than Mr., Pagan, who
has redrced an work here to such a
system that money is saved every
month and the efficiency Of the local
corps of workers is the highest on the
entire Rio Grande system.
1t is due to Mr. Fagan's indSmitable
"stick-to-itiveness" and persistent cam
that Grand Junction is go
ing to get a $65,O0O roundhouse and
other improvements totaling 100000
at once. His great experience in 9th
er states on other railroads stands
him in good stead. and he is n man
who has risen from the workers. for
no mightier arm ever swung the boil
ermaker's hammer than Fagans. His
return from Chicago with news of the
convention is eagerly awaited by the
shop men here, with whom Pagan is
popular.

Of California.

Washington, May 2S.-Representa-
tive Sisson today made his announced
speech in the house.
A few days ago President Wilson
called Sisson to the White House and
requested him not to make a speech
that might CompliCate the diplomatic
negotiations with Japan or intlame
the public mind. Sisson denied any
intention of making a war" speech,
but attacked the position that the
treaty making power superseded the
law making powers of the sovereign
states. He declared that he took this
position not because japanese We're
involved: that he would take it to-
ward England. France. Germany or
any other nation, and that it only
required patience and cool heads for
both countries to reach an amicable,
fair and just settlement OF all diff
Culties."
Sisson said: 'If any nation should
decide that they will dictate to us our
land laws, we would be unworthy of
national existence If we permitted
such dictation 1t is no declaration
OF war for the United States govern
ment to decline to override the rights
OF a sovereign state at the dictation
of foreign power
Sisson argued that the Importation
of cheap alien labor would make pos
sble the corporation control OF land.
"Many of these large employers of
labor" he said, would be delighted
to have the government let down the
bars and let the alien come in. What
would become of the American farm
er if great corporations should buy
all the best lands and cultivate them
with Mongoiians, Chinese. Hindus,
Japanese and other cheap alien la
bor?"
Sisson made a plea for the open
door on the treaty sessions of the
senate.

Boston, Mass, May 23.-At the re-
sumption of the Wood dynamite trial

Cured during the Lawrence strike. "

ments were authorized by President
Wood.
Another check was for S2,1OO, and
the vouchers were marked I'm full
for all claims to date"
Both checks were endorsed with
AtteauX's name.
The state by the introduction of
the checks attempted to show that
the American Woolen Company
through Wood helped to pay the ex-
penses OF the conspiracy to plant
dynamite in the homes of textile
strikers. Counsel for the defense OBJ
jected to the introduction OF the
checks, arguing that they were not
competent evidence unless connec-
tion was established between the ex-
hibits and the alleged conspiracy.
The court admitted the exhibits
with the understanding that they
would be competent only if some con-
nection between the papers and the
conspiracy could be shown by the
evidence.
The state called William H. Dwell
ly, Jr., the treasurer of the American
Wooden Company. Dwelly told of be-
ing called into Woods office one day,
