COLORADO YEAR BOOK

The Colorado Year Book for 1921.
now being distributed by the state
Immigration Department. contains
the most complete set OF statistical
tables for the state and Is various
counties ever issued by any state
department. 1t contains Is pages OF
such tables. or about 25 pages more
than were contained in the Year
Book of 900 whichf was the most
complete statistical record issued
by the state up to that time.
On account of the large amount
OF space utilized by statistical tab
les it has been necessary to omit
this year the county stories that
were contained In previous editions
OF the Year Book. These will be
available in the future only in the
district booklets published by the
Immigration Department. These
booklets will be revised and reis-
sued early next year
The 1921 Year Book contains
many features that were not found
in previous editions, most impor
tnat of which is u set OF statistical
tables showing agricultural develop
nent in the various counties.
These tables are made up chiefly
from the reports OF county asses
sors for 1919 and 1920, but reports
Of the census bureau for the same
year are also used extensively. Re
vised population figures for all
counties and incorporated places
are given The names of county Of
ficials also have been added this
year A detailed index is included,
which makes the book much easier
OF use for reference purposes than
previous editions.
1t was the plan OF the lmmigra-
tion Department to publish the
book this year early in June. The
strike OF the printers and other
publishing house employees, how
ever, delayed the work making the
date OF issue somewhat later than
that for previous years. On ac-
count OF the earlier date at which
1t was planned to issue the book
no assessors reports for 1921 are IN
cluded.
The Year Book is distributed free
of charge to commercial clubs, lib
rarics. certain state and county Of
iicials and to Others who make pub
lie use of it. the purpose of the
department being to give the wild
est possible use of the information
It contains to Colorado people.
Persons desiring the book for priv
ate use may obtain comics as long
as they are available on payment

approximately 500. the cost hav.

Would Censure G. p. o.

To the Editor. The washinston Herald;
Referring to column 2. page 2. of
your paper of October %, I have
especially noted the following from
Representative Burton, of Ohio.
why il he (Blanton) had swept
the sewers and the sIums, II he
had walked the roads where un-
cleanliness and vileness whisper, he
could not have surpassed this ar
ticle."
1t is truly language which has
no place in Gongfess but IL must
be remembered that Mr.. Blanton did
not have to go outside of the Gov
ernment Printing once to get the
language. He did not have to visit
sewers nor slums, IL was all found
in the Government Printing ONCE.
Congress is sufficiently shocked
that Mr.. Blanton had the affidavit
printed in the Congressional Rec
ord, but is it sufficiently aroused to
clean up the Government Printing
Office. Mr.. Blanton has been CEN
sured, what about the man who
used the language2 Have we rea-
son to believe that no such Ian
guage will again be uttered in the
Government Printing once? II not,
would it not be wise to go on with
the centuring and the cleaning?

Liquor Revenues a Trap.

To the Editor, The Washington Herald:
To one who has been in touch
with the war against King Alcohol
for the past 40 years or nore, the
proposal to let down the bars to
beer and wines for the sake Of the
revenue comes with a familiar
sound. In the old days, when the
fight was the hottest, the alleged
value of the liquor traffic as a .eye-
nue. producer was a main line of
defense, and there can be 70 doubt
that 1t greatly delayed the result,
Money is a potent argument, espe-
cially when 1t takes the form of
taxes.
Notwithstanding the stress of the
times, l have faith to believe tina,
there is sufficient Intelligence in
the country as a whole to recognize
the old trap as reset and rebaiteti.
It will continue to support the gov
ernmeRt and pay its debts without
resorting to the indirect and OBJ
noxious route OF the '1egalized"
liquor, trafic.
According to the report Of che
California State Medical Society,
the deaths from alcoholism in that
state In 1920 numbered 81 as against
24o in 1917. Shall we turn the clock

Would Use Army to Enforce
Dry Law.

To the Editor. The Washington Herald:
Having read Evils of Prohibition
and a Remedy" as written by Alex
ander Sidney Lanier, wish to ask
why is 1t expedient that we should
submit the prohibition question to
the people. Do we not elect Con-
gress for the purpose of making
our laws? often hear the argu-
ment it was put over" on them.
To my way Of thinking, that was
wise put over" We would have
made a mess of things had We tried
to go ahead with the emergency war
preparedness program with wide
open saloons. 1t is a deporable state
We are in as a result of the old
whisky elements upholding the IL
legal trafic. / admit there could
be changes made in this law where
by the Government could manufac-
ture and sell for medical use just
enough above cost for revenue. It's
no use to put up the argument that
people are bootlegging because they
don't think it a fair law. They haN,
only their own pockets at heart The
ones upnclding them are TO bet
ter; IN fact, they, especially the pa
irons of the bootlegger, are as much
at fault, as it's their hard-earned
money, so foolishly handed over for
their high-priced, poisonous sw1ll'
that makes it difficult to enforce
prohibition. The old saloon clique
is behind all of this, hoping and
foolishly expecting. no doubt, to get
back again behind the gilded rail
robbing the weak as of yore. The
vets would hail with delight the
opportunity of placing this question
before the people, now that they
think through their scheming they
have shown the public that the
country is worse off now than when
they were licensed to carry on this
outlandish trade.
The wars greatest blessing to US
was prohibition. Our duty now Is
to enforce II. / say enforce it If it's
necessary to use our army to beat
every bush that harbors a liquor
highwayman. When he is caught
accept no fines that they boast their
trust pays for them. Put them be-
hind the bars, or, rather. behind
good pick. for they have horror OF
labor.

, Reveling IN Muck.

g ENATOR Tom Watson, of Georgia, is quite
- triumphantly happy. He is wading to his
chin-he never gets in above that-in a mess Of
accusations. He loves mental slush and to be the
center OF battle royal where the give and take
has no limits, quarter is asked given, and
the total is sort of cross between Douglas Fair
banks and Charlie Chaplin movie. A newspaper
correspondent recently said that to endure close
contact with Congress from the outside for series
OF years, man must have abundant sense Of
humor always on tap, or he would end suicide.
1t is not what a Tom Watson attempts to do:
it is not the sort of thing which he devotes his
boundless energy and exaggerated ego, but the
methods in the doing. He claims the right to vilify
to the depths of human language. He pretends to
be ilused when there is a return in kind but in
fact it gratihed, it is the notice which his ego
feeds and his renewed effort to exceed
his ability in defamation Streaming with
slime. he is triumphant if his own batteries are
working. He cares little what is said of him, if
only he is not ignoted
It is not new for him to attack the army over
seas. This is old stuff 1t now only comes from
MS place In the Senate and so has be challenged
He used the charges when candidate, and
he has recently published them. His charges were
as vicious then as now. He had as many hanged
without trial and had the photograph of
gallows. His election was last November. He has
had nearly year to complete the indictment and
collect the proof. He has proof now
than then, or at least offers more. Now, as
then, it is but assertion. Senator who will make
such charges on the floor OF the Senate without
single item of evidence to offer to their truth, is
sad and sodgy spectacle. He will have the
proof. We doubt if he expects to have it.
He is but having of his characteristic mental
drunks.
But this time he will have to go into court.
He will have to produce his witnesses. To expect
him to put up shut up would be asking too
much. But he will have to put up clear case or
stand as a sensation monger and the Senate
may take leaf from the book of the House and
send him back to Georgia.

The League at the Conference.

MOT ONLY will the Washington conference
~ almost duplicate the council Of the league of
nations in its membership, but the principal dele
gates will be among the most distinguished mem
bers of the assembly at the last league meeting.
Jonkher Van Karnebeck, of Holland, president
OF the assembly during the five weeks of its ses-
sions Viviani of France was even more active
than at the first session year ago He was head
of the disarmament commission which gathered a
mass of information and statistics
Balfour, representing Great Britain, had grown
in his enthusiasm Hayash of Japan, the youthful
Wellington Koo, of China, who opened this second
assembly, and Signor Schanzer, of Italy, complete
the list of the representatives who practically DOM
mated the assembly They were among the most
ardent of the league supporters. No one can doubt
their sincerity in faith to its future, its perma-
nency and usefulness. They thoroughly COM
mitted to it and have failed to recognize in the
death sentence pronounced by Ambassador Harvey,
more than the remuneration of the United States.
Mr.. Harvey, who is the official ax-bearer of the
administration, has now also decapitated any form
of an alliance the result of this conference This
was rather work of supererogation, though one
of joy to Mr.. Harveys temperament, as having re-
fused to enter the league and having lost the "as-
sociation," smaller number in alliance would be an
even more serious infraction of isolation. Not be-
ing as other nations and thanking the Lord that
this is so, it is strain enough and discuss;
further than that would be impossible with a con-
sistent attitude of refusal or rejection.
Yet these coming with but little inter-
val from the sessions of the league, will be of the
principal delegates of their governments at the
conference. 1t is indeed peculiar situation They
will be the guests and counselors of government
which has refused to join with them in the larger,
permanent body. They will be the same men here
n IL,
had to make this still more distant Journey at a
greater expense to meet and discuss with those who
refused to be with them or of them at Geneva:
why they should share with America here, after
Americas refusal to share with their countries,

Remedy for Unemployment.

To the Editor. The Washington Herald:
1 wish to state a fact which I
know to be true: That there are
hundreds, even thousands, OF house
wives in this city who could well
afford to keep domestic help OF some
kind. In the average household the
mother is generally the maiC-of-all-
work. Would it not be a great help
to her to let some competent wom-
an come In and do II only half a
days work? Let the housewives of
the intelligent class put their brains
together in this matter; or. better
still, let an organization such as
the Red Cross investigate these con-
ditions and see IL the so called
household drudges could not better
their condition and at the same time
givei employment to an increasingly
large number OF unemployed do
mestics.

Christ to Come in Spirit.

To the Editor. The Washington Herald:
May / make a few statements con-
cerning an article in the open Court
entitled Second Coming Of Christ
a Myth?
The Bible is the oldest book in
existence. Time and again men
have sought to Danish it from the
earth. They have hidden it and
burned it; have martyred their fell
low-men for having copies of it in
their possession; but, through the
fierce battles of 80 centuries it has
emerged unscathed, still beloved by
consecrated believers in its sacred
pages.
'All Scripture is given by inspira-
ton of God" II Tim. 3:16, and the
facts prove that the author of the
Bible has been it's Preserver: also
that it is not of human origin.
Many pens. many minds, many cir
cumstances, many centuries infiu-
enced the writing of the Bible. hut
through all its pages there is rnly
one theme-that is, the origin of
sin, its cause, it's effect, Gods rem
edy, and the final restitution OF
all things spoken by the mouths OF
all the holy prophets since the
world began"
Concerning the second coming OF
Christ, I insist emphatically it was
prophesied in the Holy Word.
1t was not to be expected that
Christ's physical body was meant
to be returned to this earth. His
flesh was sacrificed for the sins OF
the world. But we do read that
the Sun of Righteousness shall
arise with healing in his beams
As the bright-shining sun emerges
from the east. and illuminates even
unto the west. So will be the pres
ence of the Son of Man" Matt. "a:

allies cancelled all their obligations to the Greeks,
who had reluctantly joined in the war against Ger
many and had only done so through the activities
of Venzelos whom they then repudated
Constantine, brother-in-law Of the Kaiser, had
used all his influence to hold Greece neutral He
was believed to be in constant communication with
the Kaiser and to have covertly helped his cause
with the Turks. 1t is quite certain that II he had
swallowed his personal ambitions, Greece would
have Jared far better in the revised treaty of Seves,
as the allies pledges and agreements were with
Venizelos, not Constantine: and with the Venizelos
government, not that of Constantine.
Indeed had not Greece recalled the King. she
probably would not have had these later wars with
Turkey and might have drawn her full American
credit to liquidate war costs There is, however,
now no obligation of this sort. The wars with the
Turks have been carried to foolish and almost dis
astrous lengths and though in spite of Constantine.
Americans have hoped for his success they are not
obligated to finance his failures his ambitions,
nor the perpetuating of his regime. Indeed, If
Greece expects this balance, her nearest assurance
OF getting it, is first OF get rid of Constantine.
