troversies are be determined by the
priests and judges. IL The contemner
Of that determination must die. IA The
election, 16 and duty of a king.
Thou shalt not sacrifice unto the
Lord thy God any bullock, or sheep
wherein is blemish, or any evil
favouredness: for that is an abomi-
nation unto the Lord thy God.
2 If there be found among you
within any of thy gates which the
Lord thy God giveth thee, man OF
woman, that hath wrought wicked
ness in the sight of the Lord thy
God, in transgressing his covenant

the thing certain, that such abomi.
nation is wrought in Israel:
Then shalt thou bring forth
that man or that woman, which
have committed that wicked thing

that woman, and shalt stone then

that stubbornness was one of Gov,

cennes University, in Indiana, an
old-time institution existing under
an early Federal charter, induced
the State legislature to authorize
bond issue in it's favor for some
s125,0oo. Gov. Hanly vetoed the bill
on juridical grounds. The legisla-
ture repassed it over his veto. The
bonds were engraved, but Hanly re-
fused to sign them. He stuck them
away in the safe of the executive
mansion at Indianapolis, and there
they remained until Thomas R
Marshall became governor two years

Grade Crossings Conde mined.

. Former Gov. j. Frank Hanly's
tragic death in an automobile col
lision with a freight train revived
discussion in Washington yesterday
of the urgent necessity of abolish
ing murder dealing grade crossings
on American railroads. In Euro
pean countries like England and
Germany they long ago disappeared
TO the point of almost entire eN-
tinction. J. T. Oliphant, a mem
Der of the Indiana State highways

new system of automobile roads
which Indiana is constructing avoids
railroad grade crossings wherever
possible, even at the expense of
costly detours. Mr.. Oliphant says
that everybody recognizes the lit
orally vital necessity of doing
away with grade crossings, but he
doubts whether American railroads
for years to come will be able to
afford the enormous expense of uni
versal track elevation.

PLATINJM MINE Is DIS
COVERED AT SILNERTON
The Latest Mining Wonder of Colo
RADIO Is Platinum Mine Just Dis
covered IN San Juan Country

This new metal which promises TO
add untold wealth to the mining in
dustry Of Colorado is platinum, ac-
cordlnE 70 tests made By f. f. Burlin-
game, Of Denver. one Of the most
reliable metallurgists in the United
States, and the property TO which the
credit belongs for containing this
mineral Is the world famous old
Gold King mine at Gladstone, being
operated by the Gold King Extension
Mines company.
The manner in which the discovery
was made was one Of the strangest
in the annals OF the mining history
Of the west, and came about because
Manager Kinney was not altogether
satisfied with the returns being re-
cciyed from the smeltcrs for concen.
trates shipped One day he gathered
up about three pounds Of amalgamat-
ed gold and other contents and took
it to Denver for a test and when he
went TO find out what the results were
he was handed 4 check for 5000 foi
the gold content and another check for
100 for the platinum therein.
No doubt there are mines in Gun
nison county, which contain platinum
If properly assaycd and prospected
Up to this time the worlds supply
of platinum has come almost entirely
from the Ural mountains in Russia.

There is no use beating round the

stockmen are right up against it for
stock feed, and another group is out
watching the bottoms of the stacks
disappear. Up to this time,. by care
full planning, there has been hay e.
nough to 60 around, but of course, no
one dreamed that the storms would
continue into May, and here it is,
April 23rd, and very little spring sun
shine in sight.
Just at the usual time for turning
out on the low range the aforesaid
range is still covered with quite q
coating Of snow and more coming.
However, the weather can change
mighty sudden in April, and as we
have enjoyed pretty plenty Of bad
weather, perhaps the clouds will lift
and warm wind appear, which would
bare the foothills in "a hours.
Let's hope SO.

County tables are being prepared

show a general increase in the county
tax levies for the construction and
maintenance of highways. The levies
range from one mill to seven mills
and the total revenues to be collected
by the counties for highway purposes
will be in the neighborhood of s3,000,-
900, the highest in the history of the
state, and more than was available
annually for highway purposes from
all sources in the state ten years ago.
In addition to this there will be sub
stantial increases in the amount
collected this year for highway pur-
poses from automobile license tax
and from gasoline tax and the amount
to be turned over to the state by the
federal government from various
sources for highway purposes also
will be larger. Apparently the total
amount available for highway pur-

The area sown in winter wheat last
fall was approximately 97S,000 acres,
compared with 1,075, 900 acres sown
in the fall of 1918. On April 1st the
condition was estimated to be rs per
cent of normal compared with 100 per
cent on April 1st last year. and an
average of 92 per cent on April lst for
the past ten years. The forecast at
this time on the basis of normal
yield of Is bushels per acre, is 49,
202 900 bushels compared with 49,
$50 900 bushels last year, based upon
the condition of the crop at that time
and the acreage found thru reports Of
county assessors to have been devoted
to the crop. The actual production
last year was estimated to be II ,916,-
500 bushels. The great difference be
tween the forecast of production this
year and that on April last year il
due partly to decreased acreage and
partly to unfavorable soil and weather
conditions which prevailed during thu
month of March, particularly to tn
heavy winds and depletion Of mois'
ture.
