From behind her came a modified

From the nucleus of these four
rooms Maple House had grown. i'm.

There were hooks that were satisfied

Denver. Col. April /. - Judge Ben Fl.
Lindsey acknowledged that while in
Germany he had sounded sentiment
regarding the feeling there toward
Colonel Roosevelt and how the German
people would receive a visit from him.
Judge Lindsey said:
'In Germany | found the keenest in

that surprised me was that there was
much more feeling against President
Wilson than there was against Roose-
welt. The Germans seemed to be very
much hurt over the attitude of Roose-
welt on some of the questions growing
out of the war. They thought he had
been misinformed-that ne had been
hasty in his judgment-and IL he would
come to Germany they could change
his mind. Many were anxious for me
to urge Roosevelt to make a visit to
Germany.

incidentally it is the first time in
nearly half century that a sheriff of
Union county has not felt that he
might be under the necessity of re-
signing. his office rather than be, COM

them did resign rather than oppose
