nations can afford to engage in war
with other great nations. Sometimes
they are misled into going to war, al
ways finding it harder to quit than to
begin. The loss of property is always
appalling, but does not compare in
estimate with the loss of life. The
United States has not recovered, after
half a century, from the effect of its
civil war, nor has it yet succeeded in
wiping out the debts of that period.
Possibly it could do SO if it couldt get
rid of its billion dollar congress. Then
too, there is the growing feeling among
the citizenry, as to the moral right uf
their country's head to set them up
as targets for shot and shell upon any
flimsy excuse. Savagery and brute in
stincts still exist and with the growth
of internecine dissatisfaction in all
nations, it becomes harder and more
difficult to get real definition for
the word patriotism. Fighting Bob
did not miss it any, though, when he
described war as hell" Future wars
may be all of that, if not more.

Thos. M Patterson, ex-newspaper
publisher, ex-U S. senator and mil
1ionaire property owner of Denver,
was nominated last Saturday by the
Democrats for governor. Patterson Is
said to collect $500 per day from the
Albany Hotel block alone, sending his
agent for the cash each morning. Pat
terson, it is also said, was never gull
ty of doing an act of friendship or ex-
tending a charity when such action
was not prompted by selfish motive.
Patterson, it is further asserted, has
allowed little else to stand in the way
of political and financial scheming. TO
bin, of Montrose, his running mate as
lieutenant governor, has the reputation
of thoroughly good citizen.

One of the largest deals of the sea

Odem's Red Mountain ranch was
traded for the J. M. Conner mercantile
establishment.
The ranch which comprises 35 acres

about the 18th.
The grocery and hardware will be
managed by Claude R. Cline and the

quit or continue work at the old

to work on Saturday.

her little ones at least seriously in

forted when told that not one OF the
