The Arvada enterprise., 1916-05-04

The Enterprise stated, soon
after Mr.. Bryan's resignation
from the Office of Secretary of
State, that he had reached the
apex of his political career and
would quickly sink into oblivion
in the public mind. His defeat
as a candidate for the National
Democratic Convention proves
the truth of our assertion.
The Enterprise is about the
only paper in the state that has
not taken shot" at the Den
ver-Charter target. While re-
alizing that the Enterprise wields
"A wide influence we refrain from
butting in on Bon and Tam's pre-
serves. They can always be de-
pended upon to shelter Justice"
when there's nobody home
any place else. therefore we
have felt that justice would be
done to queens taste.
Now that our old friend John
Grattan has capitulated 10 the
Vivian crowd and admitted that
the crowd was right and he was
wrong, the Golden Globe. one of
Mr.. Vivian's county papers,
bursts forth with its unqualified
Endorsement of Mr.. Grattan for
State Senator, and also as a show
of good faith, Mr.. Grattan was
honored with the Craftsmanship
of the Republican Convention
Saturday. The Globe pretends
to be ignorant of the fact that
Mr.. Grattan has been offered the
nomination for State Senator.
If the Globe is in doubt about
that matter, its editor should ask
the little group of standpal
Progresslves" what representa-
tions Mr.. Grattan made to them
when he asked for their support
which was denied him, because
of the fact that he showed plain
ly that he had deserted the Pro
gresslves and gone back to the
Vivian crowd chiefly because OF
the flattering offer. The old
saying that politics makes
strange bed-felows" is being
eXempIiiied with remarkable in.
depreciation in Jefferson county.
However, if the Vivian crowd is
satisfied with Mr.. Grattan as a
candidate for senator. we are.
The business interests of Den
yer, and it fact all over the
state seem to be in a state of eX.
ultation over the splendid in.
crease in all lines of legitimate
trade, and this under the dry
regime" " Many business men
who were strenuously opposed to

NiLth Annual Chautauqua Closed
Successfully Sunday Evening.

close of the Ninth Annual Chaut AL
qua in Monroe City. Each year
has been an improvement on the
year before and this was no excep-
ton We enjoyed six days of ex-
cellent music and splendid lectures
and entertainments.
We went to press last week too
early to report that program. The
music that afternoon was by our
own Symphony Orchestra and when
you consider that they are business
people and music With them is on
ly side line. or rather that they
have only few spare hours of their
time to give to music we will say it
compares favorable with the rest
of the music during the week.
DR. Leo COontz lectured Wednes
day afternoon. His subject was
Purpose and Power He is well ed
ucated and said many good things.
He is not a regular chautauqua
lecturer and when the lecturer
who had beer engaged for that date
died in June, DR.. Coontz kindly
consented to fill the vacancy.
Wednesday evening Sidney Lam
don, impersonator. was here and
his portrayal of Victor Hugo. Bill
Nye. Rudyard Kipllne and other
noted characters were thoroughly
enjoyed.
Thursday afternoon the White
Hussars gave the afternoon pro-
gram They had been here before
but they had evidently forgotten
the fact for their program was a
repetition of their entertainment
two years ago Their prelude that
evening was a new one and pleased
all. Dr. Roland A. Nichols lectured
that evening on The Man Worth
While" aid it was well worth hear
ing. 1t was both instructive and
entertaining.
Friday the Lyceum Arts Conser-
vatory Orchestra gave concert in
the afternoon and the prelude in
the evening. Their numbers were
enjoyed fully as well as their pro-
grams on Tuesday.
Friday evening Judge George
D. Alden lectured on The
Powder and the Match He
has strong personality and this
with the truths he told made his
one of the best numbers on our
program.
Saturday afternoon Guschkins
Orchestra was on No. 4 and it ar
rived too late for the afternoon
concert. Those paying single
admission had their money refund
ed and those having season tickets
received their moneys worth dur.

chestra were in prelude Saturday
evening, Sunday afternoon and
gave full program Sunday even
ing They were all first class mu-
sicians and played only high class
music. Their music was pronounc-
ed by those who know, as being the
best during the chautauqua.
Father NJ. D. Collins lectured Sat
urday evening. AS he was known
to many in this community and
they had promised US that a treat
was in store we were expecting
something better than the ordinary
and we we're not disappointed. His
subject was one in which we are
