And at tho train the village host.

And as he punched each one he said:

The Colorado statesman., 1918-02-16
The Aan of Washinaton.

However his military fame may ex-
cite the wonder of mankind, it is chiefly
by his civil magistracy that Washing
toms example will instruct them. {.
Such a chief magistrate as Washing
ton appears like the pole star in clear
sky, to direct the skillful statesman.
His presidency will form an epoch and
be distinguished as the age of Wash
ington. Already it assumes its high
place in the political region. Like the
Milky Way, 1t whitens along its allot-
ted portion of the hemisphere. The
latest generations of men will surveJ,
through the telescope of history, the
space where so many virtues blend
their rays and delight to separate them
into groups and distinct virtues. AS
the best illustration Of them, the living
monument to which the first of pa
triots would have chosen to consign his
fame, it is my earnest prayer to heaven
that our country may subsist, even in
that late day, in the plenitude of its
liberty and happiness and mingle its
mild glory with Neutrality-suspicious.
Ames.
The Colorado statesman., 1918-02-16

$3.50 men in camp unfit for duty for
want of clothes. OF this number
scarcely man had pair of shoes. AL
though the total of the army exceeded
1900 men, the effective rank and file
amounted to SOP. Their clothes were
in tatters. The Quaker Isaac Potts
tells us of Washington's prayer at Val
ley Forge, how, as he traversed the for
est, he heard a fervent voice. APP
preaching nearer, whom should he be-
hold, in kind of bower, but the COM
mander in chief on his knees praying
to the Ruler of the Universe. At the
moment when Friend Potts, concealed
by the trees, came up, Washington was
interceding for his beloved country.
When he reached home his wife asked
the reason foc his agitation.
"T have this day SEEM replied he,
what shall never forget. If George
Washington be not man of God, 1 am
mistaken, and still more shall 1 be dis
appointed If God, through him, does
not perform some great thing for the
country"
