That, for millions of people, life is steady
grind, is deplorably true, 1t will remain true SO
so imperfectly systematizcd as it is now. # we
all did share, the grind would be distributed
in such way that it would be easily borne. and
1t would take comparatively little time. Even
now, in our present economic system, under a
well-aeveloped organization, the grinding work
could be so minimizcd as to be scarcely a burden
But what arc those who are obliged to work
down and lament? Or are they to do what they
can to make the grind less grinding? Surely the
second course is the better, Everything depends
OF providence. it is possible to become interested
in nearly everything we have to do. Even in a
grind there may be some compcnsations, includ-
ing the immense relief that comes at the end
OF the day, i'll the enhancement, by contrast. of
the enjoyment of freedom and its opportunities
Those whose lives all leisure know little or
nothing Of the meaning of leisure. Those who
have small leisure find in it the greatest refresh
ment.

 Many of the best Mexicans were in sympathy with the attitude that the United States took toward Huerta. They knew that stability of govern ment was not to be hoped for under a man of his temperament and dispo- sition. After it beSame evident, by continued negotiations that ended mo- where, that Huerta was standing, so to speak. in the City of Mexico heap ing insolence upon the United States, President Wilson gave notice that Huerta must go.

Heath taking care of the laughs, there is plenty doing every minute. The act is handsomely staged and should draw much favor able comment from patrons during it's engagement. @s-
 Lost and Found in the Depot,' a comedy skit, in the hands of Adams and Miller, a pair of character come 1dans of the first water, is the big laugh -getter of the bill.

Wrong to People of Central and South America Would Have Been Perpetrated, Declares Secretary of Interior Monroe Doctrine Has Great Future, He Says

 Americans are justified in the pride that through the operation of the Mon- roe Doctrine there is gradually grow ing up in the New World civilization that will make old-time revolutionary methods impossible, that will carry forward all of the twenty-one republics to the unification of our international interests in the true spirit of Pan Americanism. We have so amplified the Monroe Doctrine that we are virl tually the co-partners of the republics to the south of us, and to proclaim that the violation of their constitution al laws would not in the slightest inter- fere with our recognition of a con- spiracy to murder lawful executives and overthrow their esta blished repub- lican forms of government would have been rightly considered by the Amer ican people as the most coWardly and short-sighted policy imaginable. Con- demnation would have arisen not only from the people of the United States, but from all the nations of the Pan American union.

Smithfeld, a ShalSespearean actor of prominence, and Miss Esther Weltyr a strikingly Handsome and capable actress, who has appeared in such popular suc- cesses as 'Vnder Cover,'' and Within the Law" The balance of the un- usually large cast is composed of Ear Yeadacker, Frank w.

LONDON'S WATER SUPPLY.

The first ambitious attempt to supply London with pure and unfailing water system was made by Hugh Myddeltop. who organized and brought to completion the New River water supply. This system was for mally opened 303 years ago today. Sept. 29, 1913. Myddelton was a simple London goldsmith, but a man with big ideas and the ability to carry them through. His project was bit terly opposed in many quarters, and so many obstacles were put in the way of his great project that. even when half completed, 1t seemed doomed to failure. At length King James I. bought a half interest in the project, and this royal backing for the Welsh contractor silenced those who had opposed the scene. A great public pageant marked the opening of the f1oodgates and the turning on of the water The pipes used by the New River Co. to convey water to London houses were made of the stems of small elm trees, de- nuded of bark and drilled through the center. One end of the pipe was ta- pered so that it fitted into the end of the next. These wooden pipes were passed through the streets to the ex- tent of 400 miles. The process was expensive, and for a long time poorer Londoners had to depend. upon the water carriers for their supply.

FITS A CINCH FOR WILSON" IS
 L|NDSEY'S VIEW
Fighting Judge Says Claim That Hughes Will Win
 Colorado is Ridiculous.

Ben Lindsey. the fighting judge of
 Denver, characterized as ridiculous the
 claim of the Republican National Con-
 mittee, that ninety per. cent. of the | Progressives of Colorado have return ed to the Republican Party under the harmonizing influence of MT. Charles | E. Hughes candidacy. On the con-
 trary, Judge Lindsey says that the Re- publicans won't get an even break in | the distribution of the Progressive
 votes of Colorado, and, headed with emphasis, tits a cinch for Wilson in Colorado"
 Judge Lindsey, who is one of the | leading Progressives of the country and who was urged by Gov. Hiram Johnson of California as Col. Roose- velt's running mate as the vice presi- dential candidate of the Progressive party in 1912, called at Democratic Headquarters for a conference with | National Chairman Vance c. McCor- mick yesterday afternoon.
 'It Is beyond me to understand.' said Judge Lindsey, "how any sincere | believer in the principles of the Pro- gressive Party as enunciated in the platform of 1912 can support the can- didacy of MT. Hughes. He Is align | ed with the reactionary influences Of the Republican party and the stand pat bosses whose conduct was respon- sible for the birth of the Progressive party. The effort to elect MT. Hughes is an effort to turn the government over to the same old crowd, and the Progressives out West will not De party to any such scheme. cit {v d n fc h. ical. Big Steve otherwise A. M.
 Stevenson, is in control of the Repub- lican campaign-'Big Steve who
 stands for all that is bad in politics is in charge of the fight to jelect MT. Hughes who is supported also by the Guggenheim and Rockefeller inter- | ests.
 Everybody in Colorado knows Ed
 ward P. Costigan, who was twice the gubernatorial candidate of the Pro-
 gressive Party. He Is a leader in the ranks of the Progressives, and he | is against Mr. Charles Evans Hughes | for the Presidency-he is strongly against him. I expect him to sup port President Wilson, and he will prove a tower of strength. MT. Cos tigan, like other Progressives, is not deceived by the candidacy of MT.
 Hughes any more than he is about the
 blatant claims of the Republican man. | agers that 90 per cent. of the Progress
 sives have returned to the Republican party. | 'It is a cinch that President Wilson
 will carry Colorado. lHe is stronger
 than his party with thA voters of the
 state. He has tremendous strength with the Independents and Progress sives and with all classes of people
 generally. The people, are prosper l ous, they are happy and the country | is at peace. The Progressives, es-
 pecially, realize and appreciate that
 under the Presidents administration
 many legislative enactments and re-
 forms for which the Progressive party stands are accomplished facts. There are, in fact, many Republicans who admire the course of the President, and who condemn the Republican leadership of Colorado, who will vote | for Mr. Wilson as against MT.
 Hughes"
 Judge Lindsey will return to Den yer, Friday.
