Election Conducted by Women.

Boulder.-ColOrado refuses to be be-
hind Wyoming in the matter of doing
honor to the fair sex. Recently Cum
berland Precinct No. / of Lincoln
County, Wyo., claimed the distinction
of being the only precinct in which
the last election was conducted by
women alone. The distinction is
shared, however, by Boulder county.
Sunshine Precinct No. Is was pre-
sided over by an election board COM
posed entirely of women. The judges
were Mrs. Emma Van Keuren, Mrs. E.

Santa Fe Trail to Be Paved.

Rocky Ford.-There is considerable
interest in Otero county regarding the
the proposed concrete road from Pu-
eblo to Kansas City over the Santa Fee
trail and there is little doubt that the
county will build several miles of road
each year During the fall months
this road is cut up by the heavy loads
of beets and it requires the expendi-
ture of good sum of money each
spring to put the trail in passab BILE
condition. 1t is argued that with a
good concrete road the amount neces-
sary for repairs would be small.

"Two-sit" Piece in Demand.

Prosperity is on the increase-of
else the high cost of living is relegat-
ing small coins to the debris pile-for
no longer is the public demanding
dimes, nickels and pennies, but is
shouting now for the more exclusive
"two-bit" piece, according to officials
of the Denver mint, who are working
sixteen hours day to supply the peo-
pie of the Rockies with the desired
quarters. Orders have recently been
received stopping the coinage OF
dimes and pennies, on which the Den
yer money factory has been working
for several months past. The quar-.
tors now being coined are Of the old
and familiar design although officials
believe that the new design recently
accepted by the treasury will be
ordered used in time to get the new
coins into circulation at Christmas,
when there is always great demand
for new money for holiday pres
ents.

Steamboat Springs.-Twenty thou
sand acres of land in the Routt Ma
tional forest has been thrown open to
settlement through an order issued by
President Wilson in Washington. The
land, which under the order is now
thrown open to homestead entry, is
located in the northeast corner of
Routt county, about twenty-five miles
north and west of Steamboat Springs.
and is known as the Ham creek basin.
1t is described as high rolling land
consisting chiefly of grass land and
scattered wood land, of little value for
national forest purposes, but easily
adapted to short season agriculture.

Denver.-Governor George A. Carl.
son issued the following Thanksgiv-
ing proclamation:
with the coming of the Thanksgiv-
ing season we contemplate spiritual,
educational and material advancement
during the past year which should be
source of grateful appreciation
among all our people. Our fields are
laden with bountiful harvests, our
mineral resources are yielding in gen.
erous measure their most precious
treasures; industry and commercial
enterprises are experiencing unparal-
leled prosperity. We are free of
devastating epidemics and ours is the
only great nation not embroiled in
war.
In accordance with the custom of
the Pilgrim Fathers, and that we may
turn from our daily pursuits and fit
tingly celebrate the rich blessings
and raise prayers of thanks to Him
who has SO endowed us and given us
guidance, l, George A. Carlson, Gov
ernor of Colorado. do hereby desig-
nate Thursday, November 80, 1916,
thanksgiving DAY.
Let the spirit of this day be one
of glad but not exultant appreciation.
Let us remember our war-stricken
brothers and sisters across the seas,
and then pray God to touch with rea-
son, humanity and mercy the souls of
those guiding the nations at war Let
us pray that the hope and faith which
lightened the cross and eased the tor
lures of the Son of Man may fill the
hearts of the grief stricken and
MANNED Of Europe, and their anguish
may be lessened and made more bear
able.
in this season of charity and good
will let those better endowed with
material things extend strong arm
of help to the poor and needy. Let
us comfort and aid our sick, and un-
fortunate"

To Complete Road to Morrison.

An inspection of the Denver-Morri-
son highway has been made by State
to determine the cost of sanding the
remaining three and one-hah miles Of
the roads which have not yet been
improved. 1t is estimated that the
work can be done at cost of $4,000
and that the expenditure of this sum
would put the entire road from Denver
to Morrison in first-class condition. A
great deal of work has been done on
the highway this year and the COM
mission is anxious to complete 1t.

Baby's Eyes.

The value of $4,000 is placed by a
California court on the eyesight of
child, destroyed through the careless
ness Of an attendant at the child's
birth. "a pair of baby's eles are
priceless" said the court.
And so they are-they cannot be pur-
chased at any figure. The mere none
tary recOmpense- to the parent is moth
ing. For what mere money will atone
to the mother in her brief that her
child must be doomed to life
of night?
The eyes are priceless; they thrive
on care; they suffer from Indifference,
carelessness overwOrk, Overstrain.
And when they 90 they never return.

Figures Show Increase Of so Per Cent
In Population During Past
IN Six Years.
DenverlWith a so per cent In
crease in population in the last SIX
years. five counties in northeastern
Colorado represent one of the most
rapidly developing sections of the en-
tire West. This conclusion has been
reached by Howard d. Sullivan fol-
lowing visit to that part of the state
to gather data for pamphlet which
the state immigration bureau is pre-
pairing for distribution throughout the
East
In his capacity as statistician for
the immigration bureau Mr.. Sullivan

Sedgwick and Logan counties. He
found, among other things. that since
1910 Washington had increased in
population from 5000 to 5000, Yuma
from $500 to 10000, Phillips from
3,179 to 5000, Sedgwick from 5000 to
$500 and Logan from 5000 to $500,
while the developments OF the same
counties in area put under cultivation
and in other particulars is in proper
ton to their advance in population.
The pamphlet-entitled 1.-THE Story
Of Colorado; Farming, Mining and
Manufacturing deal with the
whole state, although giving special
attention to northeastern Colorado,
where the demand for locations by
prospective homeseekers is more brisk
than it has been at any other time
for years.

Reckless Men Who

This is a fine story, only one of many similar
stories that one is hearing on every hand and
most of which will never be printed 1t is
amazing how splendid men can be, and women
too, under the stress Of great demand such
as the present hour Is making upon us all

grit Of his ancestors 1t only needed a great
world crisis to show 1t, and here it is as OF
yore.
But the thing am thinking most OF at the
moment in connection with II is the strange
compelling power possessed by this inner i'm
perative, this higher command that makes or
binary everyday folk capable of such mighty
deeds. Where does It come from and what is
1t? II is queer thing, this higher command
and 1t takes the most curious forms.
A reckless, devil-may-care sailor is taken
prisoner by dervishes and told that he may
save his life by forswearing Christianity and
becoming convert 10 Islam He says he will
see them blowed first, and dies a martyr to the
faith he has never greatly honored by his life
Now, why earth should a man do that?
He might very well shelter himself under the
plea of necessity and bide his time. But no. he
will have no truck with the alternative. Some
thing inside him will not let him, something
whose condemnation he is much moro afraid
Of than he Is Of death.
