AS our nation rapidly swings thru
changes necessary for the transition
from a peace to a war basis there is
developing the beginning of an atti-
tude totally at variance to the genius
and the institutions of democracy-the
spirit of intolerance. AS we are torn
from the moorings of peace and face
the unknown dangers of a fight for
national rights of humanity there are
not lacking indications of failure to
discriminate between measures for
protection and measures that destroy
all that gives our republic meaning.
In order to protect ourselves against
dangers suspected and feared, an eff
fort is being made to pass legislation
which would impair fundamental
rights which are the basis for all our
freedom.
An Espionage bill" is now under
consideration by congress which would
sweep away freedom of press and
speech. The people of this country
have a right to know the general
plans and purposes of those to whom
they have entrusted the conduct of the
war.
OF course the details of military and
naval strategy in order to be effective
must be kept with degree of secrecy,
but the people who must give their
services in order to make these plans
effective have the right to general in

formation and they have a right to
express their opinions and convictions
thereon.
We cannot protect our country
against insidious foreign instigation
of plots and intrigue by depriving all
of our people of their fundamental
constitutional rights. Defense and
maintenance of Americas institutions
do not depend upon drastic resolutions
completely altering the very nature of
conditions and regulations.
If we turn back the pages of history
to the early years of our republic, we
find that the country passed thru a
similar trial. The different elements
of nationality were even less welded
together in composite whole than they
are at present. There were then
fewer traditions and ideals in common.
All of Europe was at war. There were
foreign plots to force this nation to
take sides in the contest. Our con-
gress passed the drastic alien and sedi-
ton laws.
Those laws were not effective in
protecting us against foreign intrigue
but they did react disastrouslyNto in
stitutions of freedom in this country.
They were taken advantage of by that
element that desires to fasten upon
the masses of the people unfreedom
because people, denied their rights,
are more easily made to serve the
selfish interests of others.

THE funeral of Colonel w. F. Cody
Buffalo Bill, who died in Denver
three months ago, following which
the body was placed in vault, will be
conducted Sunday, June 8. The re-
mains will be inferred on Lookout
mountain at point overlooking Dem
yer and the plains which stretch for
hundreds of miles toward the Mississ-
ippi river. This last resting place has
been prepared by the city of Denver,
and soon there will be erected above
the grave monument typifying Cody
as the noted Indian scout and friend
of the red men. The services will be
under the auspices of Golden City
Lodge of Masons, the first and oldest
in the state, acting for the North
Platte Lodge of Wyoming, of which
Colonel Cody had been a member for
forty-seven years. The tomb has been
blasted out of solid rock on the crest
of the mountain at point where the
old scout had expressed desire to
find his last rest. The burial cere-
mony will be simple, the idea of a
pageant having been abandoned.

COLORADO SPRING TYPO
L. GRAPHICAL UNION NO. 80 is
issuing a souvenir program for the
in August. One of the methods
adopted to raise revenue in this souve-
mir is inviting chapels of the various
newspapers thruout the United States
to take space, which has been very
successful. One of these chapel an
nouncements will be worth its weight
in gold, literally speaking. The COM
mittee in charge this week received
from members of the Butte (Mont.)
Miner chapel "slug" of solid gold in
lieu of check. "Slug" is a term used
by printers to describe a solid line of
type cast on the machine. This par
ticular slug, cast type high, ready for
print, bears the wording, THE
BUTTE MINER" in large characters
and the regulation length for single
column of two and one-siXth inches.
The slug is seven-eighths of an inch
high and five-eighths of an inch wide.
1t is an exact reproduction of the pa
per's head line, and will be used in
printing the "chapel card" of the un-
ion printers employed in the Miner
composing room. 1t weighs about
three ounces. This unique method of
paying, for the advertising with a
solid slug of gold has created quite
a sensation in Colorado Springs, even
where gold is so plentiful, and the
souvenir committee says that the gold
slug will more than pay for the space
contracted in the official 1. T. U. SOU
venir The slug was cast on Mer-
genthaler model Is machine, the same
model as the one recently installed in
The Bulletin office. We are now in
viting readers of The Bulletin to visit
this office and feed gold into our limo
type machine.

Congratulations and well wishes for
our future prosperity continue to come
in from all parts of the country on the
successful termination of our strike.
Many of them are accompanied with
liberal cash donations, all of which are
being promptly returned to the doners.
All of the local manufacturers in the
city have conceded the justice of the
increased wage demand made by US
and have~ cheerfully adjusted their
business in compliance with the same
except one who insists that the work
men should be the last consideration
and that the insignificant item of the
high cost of living should be met by
them on basis of decreased consump-
ton of the necessities of life. This
theory is not at all popular nowadays
and will act as boomerang" in this
instance we believe. Progressive bus
mess men should adjust themselves
to the changing conditions to merit
the public patronage.
