In regard to the road in Gunnisoa
county, a writer for the Montrose
Enterprise writes: "At the Gunni-
son county line, the party struck the
road built by Mr.. kbron The road
follows the little Cimarron and
makes the climb by steady and easy
grade over the hill and down into
the valley of the Big Blue, one Of
the prettiest mountain streams in
the Rocky Mountain region. We
followed this stream through the
open valley and into the Blue Canon
" here the Big aud Little Rlue come
together.
''lIere is located Mr. Khron's pre-
sent road camp, and as our auto roll
led into camp, Mr.. Nandeburg, one
of the camp cooks, rushed out with
his camera to get a picture Of the
first automobile to make the trip to
the camp.
Right bere is where the key to
the solution to the Blue Mesa route
was discovered by Mr. Khron. In
stead Of following the old road up
the little Blue where it encountered
the bill with the unmentionable
name, the new road makes it's way
up the side of the Blue canon toward
the Gunnison river to the top of the
Blue Mesa And right here is where
we got our FIRST glimpse OF some of
the most picturesque feats of road
building TO be seen i'd the Rocky
Mountains. The read crosses the
Blue at this point over a bridge
twenty feet above the stream. This
bridge is now in the course of con-
structlon from native timber and is
being built under the direction of
James Mylchrest. This road which
is practically completed to the top of
Blue Mesa, now is blasted out of SOL

with twenty foot stone walls at other
places.

An Out-of- Date Constitution

The constitution of 1901 is thor
oughly outworn and out-of-d date. It
never was up-to-date. 1T was an an
tiquated instrument to begin with, and
it has gone from bad to worse until it
is now an impediment to development
alike to the state and to all minor
civil divisions.
It is so full of unwise and unde-
served provisions that it is beyond
amendment by the people, and the
only way to rid the state of it lies in
a constitutional convention. Any at
tempt to patch it would be unwise. 1t
could perhaps be bettered in that way
in spots, but there would remain ar
,ticle upon article that the state should
get rid Of ~
The public schools are not what they
should be because local and district
taxation is forbidden by this anti
quated document. The convicts, for a
like reason, cannot be taken out of
the mines and put at work on the
roads which are just about the worst
in the country Scarcely a city in the
state is solvent because of its taxation
cramps, and Alabama herself needs
relief from the absurd limitations i'm
posed by this instrument of 1901. It
unnecessarily disfranchises over 10O,-
900 white men.
Not until a constitutional convention
is called can Alabama get in line with
the progressive states of the Union,
and the sooner one is called the more
rapidly will the state strike the stride
of development that it's natural re-
sources plainly call for.

while the great majority OF people
indorse President Wilson's civil service
views, democrats who are after office are

Tanning of Baltimore. IT was In WASH

tlemen there who had been waiting since
Inauguration day to find out whether or
not they would be appointed.
II do not know much about practical
politics, but have a notion that appli-
cants for office might as well quit the ma
tional capital and leave their interests in
the hands of the congressional delegations
from their respective states. From the
number of applicants one might think that
there were as many places to be filled as

PRESIDENT FOR ONE DAY
Kansas City Times,


Senator David Rice Atchison OF Clay
county, Missouri, claimed the unique dis
tinction of holding the office Of the Pres
ident of the United states for one day.
The terms of6ffice of President James K.
Polk and of Vice President George nj.
Dallas terminated at Midnight, March 4,
1s49. Gen. Zachary Taylor, Polk's sue
cessor. was not inaugurated until Mon
day, March 5. 1s4s. Senator Atchison was
at the time president pro tenn OF the
United States Senate. The expiration OF
Vice President Dallas term left vacancy
to which Senator Atcaison instantly sue
ceeded. This made him ex-officio vice
president of the United States, but at tie
same instant there was likewise a va
cancy in the presidential>office, to which
in turn Atchison instantly succeeded. Sem
ator Atchison was very fond of humor-
ously urging his claim to having been
President of the United States for one
day. He said he slept most Of his term. of
course. there is nothing Of record to snow
that he drew any salary as President.

Austria and Montenegro

The attempt of Austria Hungary to
bulldoze the little kingdom of Monte
negro over which King Nicholas rules
really is plan to compel the latter to
raise the seige of Scutari and to per-
NIT it to remain part of Albania. AL
bania lies along the Adriatic sea, and
Austria Hungary hopes in the long
run to control the eastern shore of
that sea very much as Italy does its
western bounds. Austria, in other
words, desires to keep Albania where
she can as time runs on seize it as
she did Bosnia and Herzegovina.
How far Austria Hungary will be
,permitted to go in bullying King
Nicholas remains to be seen. The King
declares that, Either shall retrun
to Cettinji the conqueror of Scutari
or not at ALL" He promises to confine
the bombardment Of Scutari to its for
tifications. The town itself will not be
bombarded, but all other demands Of
Austria Hungary are turned down.

lying CONSTANTINE, the new
~ ruler of Greece. was unpopu-
L a lar four years ago in his own
kingdom, where today he is hero,
classed with the ancient warriors of
the historic land.
The ruler for whom the Greeks all
over the world. as well as their native
land, have been buying chaplets,
swords, jeweled wreaths. as being the
liberator of the land from the thrall
of the Turks. has heard outside the
palace walls at Athens and at his own
chateau of Tatoi the demand of the
mob that he and his father abdicate
in favor of his own eldest son, Prince
George.
He has had the military league of his
own army and navy against him to the
extent of mutiny. He has been in
Weighed against in the parliament and
publiclyl denounced in the newspapers
for political reasons. Now when he re-
turns to Athens not only as king but
as commander of an army that revived
the glory that once was Greece's, there

1t was not known definitely in New
York city yesterday whether or not ii

King Constantine i, when the time
comes to ascend the throne of the Hell
lenes. The last Byzantine emperor
centuries ago, was Constantine XII, and

| be selected The opinion among edu-
Gated Greeks of this city is that the old
title will be revived.
Konstahtinos, Duke of Sparta, eldest
son of King George, was born at Athens
! August 2, 1853. He was educated by
tutors who were brought from Leip-
| zig. One of the accusations against
| him has been that he has always shown
the effects of German influence. Tall,
soldierly in appearance, quiet, reserved
almost to the point of shyness in the
ordinary court functions. he-nas always
| made every endeavor to avoid the
| crowds He is soldier. a soldier of
caution rather than dash: a Moreau
rather than a Ney.
King Constantine is a brother-in law
of the German emperor. although it is
said the brothers-in-law have not
! spoken to each other for six years. He
was married at Athens October 27, 1889,
to the Princess Sophia of Prussia, sis
| ter of Emperor William, and his trouble
with the German emperor started when
| the princess became a member of the
Orthodox Greek church. The kaiser is
Lutheran. He objected to the change
of faith.
There are five children by the mar
riage-Prince George. now the prince
royal, was born July 10. 1890. and was
with his royal father at the front;
Prince Alexander. born in 1895. Prince
Paul, born in 1901. and the Princess
Irene. who is nine years old.
King Constantine undoubtedly did
much to keep his father on the throne
so many years. There had been threats
against King George. but none of. them

"UNCLE SAMv

From the st. Louis Times.
Phyfes 5000 Facts and Fancies" de-

on the Hudson, where was concentrated,

Tracing Back the Responsibility

The committee ON the revision of
laws in the legislature of 1907 cut out
section 2 of the Pitts bill. The bill
presented by Alexander Pitts of Sell
ma contained provision requiring the
president of the state convict board to
give bond to be approved by the
governor. A committee cut out this
provision and then reported the bill
favorably. 1t became law and it stands
today charged with the moral respon-
sibility of the Lacy embezzlement.
Another bill was introduced provid-
ing for bonds, but no one got behind
it and it died natural death in the
senate. This, too, was in 1907. Gov
ernsr Conner signed the Pitts bill from
which section had been eliminated,
and default in the convict funds be-
came possible and perhaps even prob
able, for rascality has not yet been
entirely weeded out of politics.

The Easter Festival

In the Latin and Protestant
churches today marks the chief festl-
val of the Christian year. In the
Greek and Russian calendar Easter Is
several weeks after that of the Latin
calendar. The great festival falls this
wear in the Orthodox Greek COM
munion on Sunday, April 27.
Easter commentaries the resur-
rection of Christ and has been OBJ
served from ancient days. All au-
thorities agree that religious festi-
val occurring at or about the vernal
equinox was much older than Chris
tianity. One historian tells us that
"at Rome the sacred fire in the temple
of Vesta was kindled anew every year
ON the first of March, which used to
be the beginning of the Roman
year"
At first the Roman Easter syn
chronized with the Jewish Passover
This was adhered to by the eastern
churches, but was soon rejected in the
west on the ground that the resur-
rection took place on the first day OF
the week after the Passover and
ought, therefore, to be commemorated
on Sunday. After a long and bitter
controversy the time for celebrating
the feast of the resurrection was fixed
in the seventh century about as it is
now. Easter is observed by the
Roman Catholic and Protestant
churches on the first Sunday after the
full moon on or next after March 21.
It cannot be earlier, therefore, than
March % or later than April 25.
For a long time many of the non
liturgical churches ignored the church
calendar, but in recent years nearly
all Christian bodies, especially in the
large cities, observe in some form
Christmas and Easter.
Easter music will be heard in all
the city CHURCHES on this Easter Sun
day. One of the most inspiring of
hymns with a modern musical set
ting, "Christ, the Lord, Is Risen To-
day." will be sung in every Protestant
Episcopal church throughout the land
and even in places of Christian wor-
ship where this hymn is not sung its
joyous and triumphant spirit will per-
wade the services.

GARDEN HINTS.

Before planting seeds be sure to take
them out of the papers. 1t is very en-
barrassing to have your turnips come
up in a bunch
Garden hose this season should not be
too loud, and don't wear silk.
Don't puncture blisters on the hand
with a brass pin. Ii you will wait
while and keep at work, they'll pop
themselves.
If you pull up a radish to see how 1t is
growing and then put it back, it doesn't
seem to do well afterward
Don't forget frames for your tomato
vines We knew an Egyptolegst once
who made all his tomato vine frames
in the form of sistrum.
