imports of shoes increased 10 per cent
for the period October. 1913. to July
1914, compared with a similar period
under Republican law. october. 1912. to
July, 1918. The present tariff placing
shoes on the free list during the few
months of its operation, had already
stimulated shoe importations and it's
effect would have been seriously felt by
inroads made in our home market had
not the outbreak of the present war
stopped foreign shipments of shoes.

NOT ION THE
GAME WARDEN

In recent number three stories we're
told of how game wardens were i'm
posed on by lawless sportsmen, and
now it seems only fair to tell of
few times when the wardens scored, as
they often do.
Warden Smith of this county was en-
joying a stroll down one of the country
roads near Belgrade lakes when he en-
countred rustic youth with tremend
Gus string of bass, and a wide-open,
trustful countenance
That's fine string of fish you have"
observed Warden Smith in his pleas
ATTEST tones. Yep, they be-" admitted
the callow youth. Seems to be a few
small ones amongst them." continued
"Smithy." Wal, p'raps they is. but
what do l care about the law" piped
| up the overconfident one.
That's right. what do you care about
| the law went on Lii Bertrand, who
was having the time of his life string
ing the youth along, although it hardly
seemed right to take advantage Of such
utter simplicity. Now where did you
| get such a fine string as that" he
asked the garrulous farmer.
''Oh, 1 ketched em in- Pond.
| stated the unsuspecting victim.
| You aren't supposed to take but six
out of that pond. are you?" asked the
warden. Nope. but what do l care
about the law" came back the inno-
cent.
Sure said Warden Smith, why
should you" And he hiked along with
the youth until they reached Belgrade
| x,hoy H. Jof& ~; y; l..
way. The boy asked the store-keeper
who the big fellow was he had been
walking with. and a moment later his
legs We're just twinkling up the dusty
road towards hum"
Another time Mr.. Smith called at a
! lake hotel rather unexpectedly, and
| asked to be allowed to inspect the re-
frigerator, but the lady of the house
objected, and faithfully promised to
scald him with hot water if he was so
rude as to insist. Her liege lord ap-
| peared, and Mr.. Smith showed him a
| section which provides a heavy fine for
| interfering with an officer in the dis
charge of his duty. Whereupon the man
said, You come around to the back
door and I'll let you in Hardly that
| I'd rather come with you" observed
| friend Bertrand, as he pushed into the
| room and headed for the refrigerator
where he found. as he expected a nice
| lot of illegally caught white perch for
which the hotel man coughed up the
| usual fine a few days later.
| But one of the local wardens once
ran into something that caused him to
have a swell time" for several days
! He insisted on searching a summer cot
| tage at Belgrade, and young lady who
| lived there had a bad case of mumps,
| which the ambitious warden picked
up while searching The mumps was
all he did find in that camp.

GOSSIP
FROM WASHINGTON

Washington, May 1O-(Special)-
One of the signs of the times in the
House is the fact that usually when
that body is in session in Committee OF
the Whole, the Republican members
outnumber the Democrats Faithful
count of this has been kept time and
time again by employees and different
members. On the whole, the average
attendance during this session has been
| largely in favor of the Republicans
When a roll-call comes, the Democrats
| pour over from the Office Building.
This means that the Democratic mem
bers have little time to attend to the
public business, but are in their Offices
handling correspondence in an effort to
save their political scalps from the
people back home With the almost
certain prospect of the next House be-
ing Republican, Democrats in close
districts are having not only very busy
but anxious days, just about this time
few months ago the President de-
termined to get next to Tammany
Hall by appointing one of their fav-
ored braves as postmaster of New
York. The Independent Democrats of
the metropolis made great outcry
and the President deferred action. In
characteristic fashion he has now tried
TO dodge the issue by naming a mem
bcr OF the state Senate who has
friendly relations to Tammany, but the
E'nalor refuses to be the goat. He
VIII not take the postmastership and
IL. President is once more placed be-
lV,cA the devil and the deep sea. In
ri,.@! event he loses. He lacked the
rcr"n 70 80 through with a straight
I&::..--;inN appointment. and if he now
taxes someone who is approved by the
int, .'e,iG@nts, he will fail to placate
Mr.. Murphy.
Wilson headquarters are already
open in New York The admnistra-
ton leaders recall that it was not un-
til August, four years ago, that they
got their party machinery in working
order and this year they intend to be
forehanded. But in 1912, the result
would have been the same even if the
Democratic headquarters had never
been opened at all. That year the Re-
publican division insured Wilson's
election. This year there is no pre-
MUM high enough to insure his re-
election. They may open headquarters
now and run them on a three-shift-a-
day plan until election time if they
wish-but it will make no difference
Il believe the provisions Of this bill
are a great advantage to the boot and
shoe industry IF tho TTpifod Ctatoo

preached and the king never sat under
even in his utmost glory. When l met
this Incompatible flower in all its
loveliness, among the oak woods
around the north base of Tabor and
on the hills of Nazareth where our
Lord spent his youth, l felt assured
that 1t was to this he referred"
That the lily must have been a con-
spicuous plant along the shores of
the Lake of Gennesaret is indicated
in Matthew, 6:2S: consider the lilies
of the field, how they grow" and Luke
1927, which bears the same admoni
ton. 1t flourished in the broad, deep
valleys OF Palestine. The Song of
Songs tells: Il am the rose of Sharon
and the lily of the valley" and also
among the thorny shrubs, for the
same book has it, "As the lily among
the thorns, so is my love among the
daughters" and among the pastures
of the desert, as is shown by this pas
sage from the inspiration of Solomon:
My beloved is mine. and l am his;
he feedeth among the lilies" In many
other passages of the Bible the flower
is mentioned.
And that the lily must have been
remarkable for it's rapid and luxuriant
growth is evidenced in Hosea IA: 5
Il will be as the dew unto Israel; he
shall grow as the lily and cast forth
his roots as Lebanon" And that the
flower was brilliant in color is indi
Gated in Matthew, where 1t has ia
miliar comparison with the gorgeous
robes of Solomon. And that the col
ors of the royal investiture were pur
pie and scarlet is also implied in the
Songs of Songs.
There were many species of lila
ceous blossoms in Palestine, some ex
ceedingly gorgeous in color and some
exceedingly fragrant. 1t is DR.. Isaac
Hall who noted the late winter carpet
ing of Christ's way by this widespread
colc- and enhancing fragrance.
Most conspicuous, perhaps. are the
great red and blue flowers of the order
Ranunculaceae, where the anemone
and the ranunculus grow together,
says he. They are not small things
like our buttercups, but great wide
| flowers of two inches or more in di
ameter, carpeting the ground with
patches as gorgeous as masses of oul
brilliant verbenas. They grow every
where; and, like the other herbs, are
glorious one day and the next day
literally cast into the oven to bake
the peasants bread"
The Colorado statesman., 1916-04-22

Love your enemies. Understand
them. See their burdens. their be-
wilderment, their perplexities, their
obstacles and handicaps and thwart-
ings. Let the Christ of you strike
with pity upon the locked gates of the
vaults of their ignorance, and cry
Lazarus, come forth! to the sleeping
souls of them within. Let the Moses
in you, the Pioneer, the Darer, the Ad.
venturer, the All-Believer, strike with
love upon the rock of their hardness
and asperity; let him will that living
water, kindness, shall gush forth, crys-
talline. sparkling. And this day, so
shall 1t be-Nautilua.

That sorrow wah joy is blent.

though there is little doubt the word
denotes some plant of the lily species,
it is by no means certain what class
1t specially designates. In the Holy
Land there are lilies that hold the
purpling blue of eastern skies; that
glow with the blocd-red fire of the
deserts dusty sunset; that have the
pure white of spiritual appeal and the
grace in curve and line that touch
music.
AS we OF the West know the lily,
the more cultivated species are the
white or Madonna lily, the tiger or
tiger-spotted lily, and the golden lily.

the Annunciation is often placed in

values of the present, is given in the
appreciation of a Canadian woman on

1t is very probable that the term lily
as used in the Holy Land was general
not referring to any particular spe-
cies, but to a large class of flowers
growing In Palestine, and resembling
the lily, as the tulip, iris, gladiolus
