OF our promised possessions. Through
out this chapter we find il describing
the spiritual faculty which enables its
possessor to treat the unseen and still
future good, as present reality wher
guaranteed by Gods promise"
When we read in the sixth verse OF
this chapter without faith it IS i'm
possible to please God" there must
come realization that VIC arc consid
ci1ng a most important subject. Faith
in tho promises OF God, and the will
ingness to act right now as if these
promises were accomplished and in
full possession. is required of every
true christian man and woman. Faitf,
has said should be done, can be done
A fine illustration from the bible OF
what l mean is shown in the case OF
Joshua and Caleb, who were two OF
the ten spies sent by the lsraelites to
spy out and report on what the Prom.
ised Land" looked like, and the
chances of taking it into possession.
1t will be remembered that the other
ten magnifed the difficulties and adj
Viscd turning back Joshua showed
the kind of faith am now explaining
by saying, ,"lf the Lord delight in us,
then He will bring us into the land
and give it us; the Lord is with us,
fear them not
The fourth and fifth chapters of Ro'
mans also speak of the triumphs OF
faith. There Paul is talking of the
faith of Abraham. Note what is there
said. Paul says that Abraham Stag,
gered not at the promises of God
through unbelief, but was strong in
faith, being fully persuaded that what
God had promised He was able also to
perform Now this is the kind of
faith that everyone needs. It is faith
which feels sure that God can and will
carry out to the very letter what He
has promised Then acting right now
as ifthe things promised were in hand
and realized. s,
1t will be remembered that the key.
notc of the great reformation under
Martin Luther was the declaration
that salvation came by faith in Col
and Jesus, and not in forms and cere.
monies and doing deeds Of penitencc.
Upon that rock stood the men who
brought the religion Of the blessed
Jesus out from the gloom Of the dark
ages" into the marvellous light OF
liberty, and gave direct ac-
cess to God without the Intervention
OF anyone else.
Tho important part which faith had
in the accomplishment Of things was

shown by Paul in the remarkable p0l.
trayal which he makes on the moving
cause why tho great men and women
of the bible won renown for themselves
and stand out to this day as distin-
guished from the masses Of their Eel
lows. Abraham was ready to leave
his childhood home and depart for q
strange country, through faith that
God would fulfill the promises made
to him. Noah had faith that the Hood
would come because God told Him 1t
would, and despite the jcers OF his
neighbOrs made the ark and was saved.
Joseph knew that God had promised
that in due time the Jews would be
taken back to the Promised Land, aud
before his death gave directions as to
carrying his bones back, be the time
sooner or later. Moses, knowing of
the promises to his fellow Jews, re.
fused to become member of the
household of the reignsng Pharaoh,
willing rather to be despised Jew anu
one OF Gods people, than to enjoy the
good things in Egyptian life now, anu
miss the reward.
Paul in the chapter under consider
alton calls to mind the faith OF David,
Gideon. Samuel, Elijah and the pro.
phets who followed and many others,
and in conclusion breaks out with the
declaration, Wherefore seeing we al.
so are comprised about with so great
a cloud of witnesses, let us lay
aside every weight and the sin which
doth so easily bcset us ana let us run
with patience the race that is before
us. looking unto Jesus the author and

Faith in the promises OF our; fellow

March 12-Heroes and Martyrs OF
Faith.-Hebrews II, ! to II, 2.
We have for our lesson this week
one of the mountain peak chapters OF
the New Testament. 1t is the great
chapter on Faith written by the
master hand of the immortal Paul to
his fellow Hebrews, and to all readers
of the gospel of Jesus. Last week we
wefe given in the address of Stephen
Ia sweeping review Of the dealings OF
God with His people from Abraham Oh
ward. and the manner in which the
Children of Israel had treated His
loving Kindness to them. Today there
is calling to mind likewise OF jewish
history with particular emphasis OIL
the men and women who, through
faith in God, won for themselves at
the time, and forever in history, re-
nown and blessings. ts
|. The lesson opens with that great
definition of faith Now faith is the
substance of things hoped for, the evil
dence of things not seen." recent
translation reads that faith is the
title deed" OF all we hope for. 1t is
the new possession Of the things prom.
ised by God. Someone in commenting
on this matter expresses it as follows:

Need of Constructive Legislation.

Just before the European war broke
out we had n million skilled mechan-
les out of work and nearly half mil
lion railroad men were idle. together
with nearly half million freight cars.
The railroads were suffering from
lack of freight to carry to market, and
industry was gradually becoming
stagnant. In Louisiana two hundred
thousand acres of sugar land were
plowed up because of Democratic
changes in the tariff law. 1t is gen.
orally conceded by all save the blind
that the country was not progressing
Attempts were made to keep courage
up by the predictions made by Secre-
taries McAdoo and RedheId and Presi-
dent Wilson of the great trade booms
which were soon to appear but which
failed to materiallze until the outbreak
of war on the continent.

continued lack of rain. increased the
offerings to 10000 cattle today, best
run of the season. Some big weight

trade last week was upwards of $4,000

good many men from east Of US were
looking for steers for feeding and paid
Sz.25 to $3.50 for steers weighing 900
to 1850 lbs. some common feeders

The supply of hogs fell short of the
estimate, actual count showing $500
head. Some sales were up 25 cents

feature was the sale of 20 car loads Of
hogs consigned by Bob Miller. Mayetta.

5000. These were part of drove
Of 5000 stock hogs bought in Idaho
last spring. Part of the reason for the
recent big advance is that some Of the
packers were caught short. but legiti-
mate trade demands are such as to in
sure a stable market somewhere near
present levels for some time to come.
Short supplies of sheep and lambs and
strong demand are keeping the local
market at a high range as compared
with other markets. Receipts today

SUCCESSOR TO KEATING
Candidates for Congress Are Rocky
Ford Visitors

Geo. e. McCieiiand of Idaho Springs
who had majority vote in the as
sembly for Congress was in town Mon
day calling on friends. Mr.. McClelland
has way of appealing to the people,
with a personality that is both pleasing
and interesting, and could all the voters
of the district meet him personally, his
nomination and election would be as
sured.
Mr.. McClelland's strength in this
contest lies in the fact that for the past
sc years he has been actively engaged
in business and mining lin this district.
He has opened up some of the largest
properties in the Clear Creek country
and during his many years mining he
has spent several Thousand dollars in
wages. He has also induced much
capital to come to Colorado for invest
ment. In the mining counties of
Clear Creek, Gilpin, Jefferson. Teller,
Park, Custer and Mineral counties, the
vote of which two years ago elected
Heating, are very strong for McClel-
land and it is the claim, of those who
know the situation that he will carry
all of them by substantial majorities.
In view Of the fact that with the
close of the European war Congress is
going to have some real business
problems to solve it is contended the
Third district should use great care in
nominating and electing a man whose
whole life has been devoted to bust
ness and who has been successful in
his affairs. The man who is success
in his own affairs is the most likely to
to be a success when handling the
affairs of the public.
Another candidate for the Republi-
can congressional nomination is w. o.
Peterson of Pueblo who was also a
caller upon The Enterprise on Monday.
Mr.. Peterson is one of the brightest
young attorneys of the state. He is
at present state senator from his dis
trict and has the distinction of having
introduced Colorado's famous DRY"
Law, which put the crimps on the
liquor business in this state. He is a
man of ability and is most highly re-
spected by all who know him. As
Colorado's representative in congress
he would be be credit to the state
and soon gain the confidence and re-
spect of his colleagues.
Either man will make a good repre-
sentative, and it is up to the people to
make their choice on Sept. IL and then
support him strongly at the November
election to the end that Colorado may
no longer be misrepresented in the
national congress.
