PUEBLO PAPER THINKS 1T
COULD BE WORKED THIS WAY

Colorado has had SO many disas-
trous experiences with its general as
sembly that a law abolishing that body
would prove to be very popular.
1t can be done, and there is no good
reason why it should not be done. The
tendency of the time is to reduce the
number of officeholders wherever the
taxpayers and voters can get at it, and
they can get at the general assembly
proposition simply by circulating petit
tions to initiate such law. The mat
ter of voting on the petitions would
come up at the fall election of 1914.
Instead of the thirty-five senators
and sixty-five members of the lower
house, there should be only about fiji
teen to twenty members, all to be on an
equal footing and to be elected from
the legislative districts of Colorado.
The members of this body should re-
ceiye no more pay individually than do
the members of the preeent general as
scmbly. and the rules governing their
action should provide for their coming
together in any emergency on short
notice and without extra pay.
BY reducing the number of legisla.
tors 1t would be hoped to improve the
ability OF the Legislative body as well
as to cut down expenses. Pass the pc.
fitions around.-Pueblo Indicator.

COL. CRAIG WANTS
RETURN GAME
TIE BETWEEN THE CADETS AND
BRANHAM & HUGHES MAY BE
PLAYED OFF HERE.

As the game stand tied between

to arrange a battle between the ca
diets and Branham & Hughes the lat
ter part of this week or the first part
Of next. The Spring Hill boys took
the first game down here by score
of eight to five, but when the return
game was played in the metropolis of
the third district, the tables were
turned and the locals got the decision
by the score of to 2.
The game, If it is arranged, ought
to be hummer. The fans won't have
a chance to see any bett er baseball
than these two teams can put up, for
it is just as good amateur ball as will
or can be seen in this section. They
play real, inside baseball, as any one
can testify who has seen them in &C.
ton. Col. Craig has drilled his team
in all the finer points Of the game,
and it is rarely that they pull bone
or throw the ball away as IL they
didn't know what to do with it. If
the people only once saw what they
can do, there would be 500 people to
see the battle with Branham &
Hughes.

A crowd that comfortably filled the

night. He took as his subject the
Different Types Of Conversion"
The speaker emphasized real con
version, and not simply getting ones
name upon the church rolls. He stat
ed that conversion meant genuine
turning away from sin, forsaking the
paths that one had led in the past.
The way Of Christ, said the speaker,
is not the way of the world. He de-
mands that we shall quit the temper
al and look to the more spiritual.
Conversions make this turning easy.
God demands Of us that we make this
turning If we wish to be saved. It is
impossible without it. He Is going to
laugh at many of us when the judg
ment day comes, for many who ex-
pect to be among those saved win be
cast into outer darkness. Their
names are upon the church books, and
they are expecting to be saved mere
ly upon this profession. This kind
Of a conversion is not genuine. It Is
only half way. Conversion is not
genuine unless 1t lasts. If 1t Is real,
there will be no trouble in avoiding
the wiles of the devil. II 1t is only
partial, then it is very easy to slip
back and forget God and Christ.

two young ladies went forward and
gave their hands to the speaker. sig

A Tribute To Newspapers.

At recent banquet in Philadelphia
John Wanamaker spoke of the news
papers in this fashion:
Newspapers are believable and are
almost the only things that are real
these days. They are at great cost to
educate us, and the responsibilities
are tremendous.
They are as mighty as the military,
sleepless and far reaching as the
light of the morning.
That is a fine complement, coming
as it does from the great John Wanna
maker. It may be said in this connec-
ton that there is no man in the coun-
try who has given the newspapers
greater support and encouragement
than this prince of merchants. The
newspapers know their friends, and
they know that John Wanamaker is
one of the truest. When he says that
newspapers are believable, the news
papers reply. so are the great adver-
tisers like John Wanamaker. Ohio
