A REMINDER.

Lest we forget-Approximat 12,-
900 Of the 10000 signatures attached
TO the petitions for initiating the So
called Herd Law" were obtained by
small army of paid circulators in
Denver. They were hired by the Den
yer newspaper backing the measure,
and were paid three cents name.
Why? Have the owners of that pa
per ever been known to contribute a
cent of their wealth without hope of
being rewarded ten fold? And yet
they would have the public believe
that somewhere in existence Is a
plethoric slush fund, that men and
newspapers and organizations are be-
ing bought, made creatures without
conscience because they oppose the
measure. Such charges are made too
often against those who oppose the
schemes of the Denver paper to be
rd!gnified with denial.
And Ae figures quoted are answer,
also. to the claim of the proposed
laws hackers that the petitions were
signed by the farmers of the state,
who almost fell over themselves in
their eagerness to be saved from star
vation and want by the Denver Post
and it's weekly organ. They prove
the city dweller was appealed to when
the thinking farmers refused support
There are 5O,00O,0OO acres of un-
fenced government lands in Colorado
Thousands of small farmers with a
few head of livestock are making both
ends meet by utilizing those lands for
grazing. Do yon, Mr.. Voter, ana Mrs.
Voter, believe ii good business to de-
prive them of that privilege? That is
what will happen to them should the
'so-called Herd Law you are being
asked to cast your ballot for in No
venber, go on the statute books. A
careful study of the proposed laws

those lands no ,ouger will be availa BILE

Ihe coal production of Iowa In 1915.

,on ,,oi4'i4o short tons, valued ut .S13,577,-

IN only two previous years, 1909 and

Gilpin observer., 1916-08-24

In Eastern Colorado thousands OF
acres of land are owned by specula-
tors. Many Of them are nonresident
owners. Their lands are being utilized
for grazing purposes by the small
farmers Of that part of the state. The
so-called Herd Law, initiated by n
Denver newspaper and backed by its
owners. would compel the purchase or
leasing, and the fencing of these
lands by those farmers. Is not that
a pretty logical explanation for the
zeal of the influences behind the pro-
posed law to force II on the state, even
Z tho it has been denounced by every
organization made up of and repre-.
ssenting the best interests of the farm
ers, small and large, the dairymen,
the stockgrowers, the business men?
Gilpin observer., 1916-08-24

The average herd in Colorado is
less than fifty head. Which creates
a laugh in connection with the charge
of the influences backing with money
and misrepresentation the so-called
Herd Law that the measures only
purpose is to paralyze the predatory
cattle baron" and help the farmer.
The stockgrowers of Colorado are
farmers. The industry is made up of
a majority of farmers with only few
head of livestock each And the IN
dustry the hackers OF the measure
plan to paralyze. gives the state some
thing like s70,000,O00 in wealth an.
nually.

SINNER is DEVILS
lAB0RER AND GETS PAY

Rev. Guy H. Black. pastor OF the
Lowell Heights NJ. +. church, talked
on The Wages OF Sin is Death" last
night, pointing out that there must
be a penalty for sin. He made
emphasis Of the binding and at
tractive powers Of sin.
Every laborer expects pay for his
work" said Rev. Black. "A sinner
is the devils laborer. He receives
immediate pay for his services and
the amount Of pay is determined by
immediate pay comes in wrecked
character. broken health and ruined
homes. In addition there is an
eternal reward for sin. The eternal
reward will be the same for all sin
ners. For instance, when man is
in Jail il doesn't make much differ
ence whether he is there for not
going across the street corner cor
rectly or for numbering a fellow
man. He is there. 1t makes no
difference whether it is a big or
little sin. There is an eternal re-
ward.
"Sin has an attractive power. IL
fills the air with sweet music. The
man who is hit and hit hard by his
first attempt at sin is the fortunate
man, for he will never commit it
again. The attractiveness of sin is
the devils bait. Sin has a tortur-
ing power. It never yields satisfac-
ton. Men suffer severely from it.
yet they go on and do it, Men and
women tread the broad way with
bleeding feet, sorrow and pain at
every step. but they go on. ap-
peal 10 you TO turn away from sin
to Christ. who has something better

in his own church and had heard re-
pCrts from others. Before another

DENIAL OF CHRIST
UNPARD0NABlE SIN

The objectionable sin is the
steady denial Of the divinity of
Christ" declared DIR. James l.. Gar
din r at st. Paul's Memorial church
las, night. cit il not one definite
act. but a continuous rejection of
Jesus as your personal Saviour. .
The text Of the sermon was taken
from Matt. 12:31-32: Therefore
say unto you every sin and bias
phemy shall be forgiven, except
against the Holy Spirit. 1t shall not
be forgiven. neither i'm this world,
nor in the next"
The objectionable sin is not
drunkenness. said Rev. Gardiner
God forgave Noah for this sin, as
He has forgiven countless others
since then. 1t is not lying. II is
not the sin Of immortality, because
the scriptures abound with instances
OF its pardon. 1t is not dishonesty,
or murder. because we know that
these sins. too, are wiped away by
repentance.
I'VE do not go TO the theologian
10 find il, but to the word of Christ
himself. When he cast out devils
from one who was sick, the Phari-
sees called him Beelzebub. because
they were possessed Of an unclean
spirit. occasioning the words of
Christ which 1 have just read you.

LOVE SPELLED
WITH A CROSS
Sometimes Money is Cheapest
Thing in World Says
Evangelist.

THE Shortest Way 90 Spell Love
was the subject OF the sermon by
Rev. Julius 7. Orton al Hope Pres
byterian chapel last night. The text
was taken from Matthew 22:37.
Jesus said unto him. thou shalt
love the Lord. thy God. with all thy
heart and with all thy soul and with
all thy mind"
There are four general classes of
people" said Rev. Orton. There
are those, a rare few. who love Cod
with all the strength Of their ma
ture. There are those who think Of
Him as the Great Doer or Per
former, but do not love Him. There
are those who. under the stress Of
unusual circumstances. are aroused
do they love Him. Then there is a
great under class that eats. sleeps
and does it's work with no thought
of God.
How can all classes be brought to
such n position that they will love
God as the text commands Men
used 20 try 20 prove Gods existence
as one would a proposition in mathe-
matics They might as well try to
prove one of Beethovcn's SYM
phonies. But let "A great master play
it and one is convinced. 1t is like
trying 10 prove YOU are good-na-
tured. But you stay all day with a
cross-g grained individual and repay
sourness with sweetness and il ne
is not convinced that YOU are good
natured. no sort Of argument will
do il.
MEN do not love problems or
demonstrations Of power. but they
do love dispositions God is revealed
To us as personality brought down
70 the plane where men can know
Him and love Him. The shortest
way 10 spell love is with "A cross.
Sometimes the cheapest thing in the
world is money and the dearest
is pain.
Eve can get some idea of the love
God had for the world when we re-
call that Jesus Christ while on the
cross refused the opiate which men
put to His lips that He might drink
to the bitter dregs the other potion
that OF our sins.
and all for what? To unravel

With the Reuiuahsts
ORTHODOX
WON I SAVE YOU

Being orthodox won't save you"
asserted Rev. W. II. Freshley at the
First Evangelical church last night
in his sermon on The New Birth Of
Christ" Culture and refinement
and outward correctness won't save
YOU. any more than painting the
pump will change the water with
in"
That the outword signs. the ex-
terror marks. do not proclaim either
the man or the Christian. but that
ia the inner life. the spirit of the
soul. and true faith which gives all
things for Jesus. are what make the
rue Christian. was the si5t OF Rev.
Freshley's sermon.
Taking the words Of Jesus 10
Nicodemus: Verify. verify say
unto you unless a man be born
again in the spirit he connOt enter
into the kingdom of heaven" Mr..
Freshley explained 10 his audience
exactly what he meant by the words
being born again of the spirit.
That statement was a sticker 10
NicOdemus. and il has been a sticker
20 many another since his time"
said the speaker. yet" he con-
tinued IF Mayor Keller or Pres't
Wilson or any OF you. no matter
how high or how low, had asked or
now would ask Jesus the question
of Nicodemus. Lord how can 1 be
saved?' Jesus would give you the
same answer.
How do we know that we are
saved ?" is the all important ques-
ton for every man. according to
Mr.. Freshley. and he then consider
ed the way whereby We might know
the answer 10 this. THE Bible is
the book that will tell us how to be
saved and let US understand when
we are saved" he urged.
Explains New Birth.
In explaining what he meant by
the new birth. Mr.. Freshley declar-
ed that everyone that dOeth right
eousness is born anew" The words
OF the Bible, whatsoever is born of
God cannot commit sin" are not TO
be taken literally, however, accord
ing 20 the speaker. The man who
once told me that he hadn't sinned
for . years, sinned when he spoke
the words-he lied" he continued.
But while we may again lapse into
sin after We have been converted.
we will never love il again. Only
the unregenerated man is content
TO lie down in the mud hole OF sin:
the man that is born again in Christ
will die trying TO get out of It,
Whenever you find a person that
likes TO banker around after sin YOU
may rest assured that the old Adam
hasn't been taken out of him at all
The regeneration has not taken
place in that man, said the speaker.
