America by the brave Dewey, was al

the Orient, lying midway between the
newly opening territories of North
China and the. thickly populated pos

pass up the bay, forming a gigantic
barrier between the bay and the sea.

the old walled city districts and on the
north are the Escoita, the main busi-
ness artery. The junction OF the Es-

Women Of Servia, Well Educated and

There is no country in the world
where women occupy more dignihed
position in the home than Servia, The
Servian idea is quite different from
that Of the Turk who keeps his wom-

Servia the woman is the companion of
the man.
A man is responsible for his un-
married sisters, and throughout the
Balkan states it is considered rather
a breach OF etiquette for him to mar.

No Servian sirl would feel she could
hold up her head in society unless
she could speak four languages. There
is hardly a Servian woman who can

health and safety
The governor is much incensed over
the action of the Weld County man
IN referring the bill, which he con
siders one of the most important that
was passed by the 18th general as
sembly and one that is necessary for
the upbuilding of Colorado. 1t is de-
manded, he says, and should become
a law.
In all thus far. five measures have
been filed with the secretary of state
FOR reference to the people at the next
state election. They are the public
utilities bill, the employers liability
bill, the sheriffs' bill, the Alamosa
County bill and the commission mer-
chants bill. II is extremely doubt
ful, the governor thinks, that the
people OF the state generally Will
sanction the reference of these meas
ures and will refuse to vote for their
reference. 1t Is well known that the
most OF the names on these bills were
secured by the professional signature
getting firms of Denver. Especially
was this so with the Aiamosa bill.
Not single person in the counties
affected and where the interest in
the outcome of the bill would seem to
be more apparent is to be found on
the petition. The same thing is prac-
tically true of most of the other bills
filed for reference
OF all the bills to be referred the
utility measure is causing more con-
cern than any other II would be a
public calamity should the reference
be successful, declares the governor,
VINO has spent much time during the
past twelve days to prevent its ref
erence. lie feels that the state of
Colorado would be greatly injured
should the law be referred and its
operations delayed for another two
years.
1t is expected that during the pres
ent week the governor will arrive at
some definite conclusion as to what
he viii do In the matter of calling a
special session.
