Fighting For Machine Politics

group of machine politicians, located for the most
part in Denver determined to restore The dsrep-
table practices that formerly made Colorado politics
disgusting to all decent citizens of this state.
Taking advantage of the public sentiment against
the present direct primary law they arc demanding
nothing else than the restoration of the old kind of
nominating convention, easily packed, organized and
controlled by machine bosses, according to the dirty
methods of machine politics.
Rather than to such an amendment of the
present law will remedy its evils while protecting the
interests of the people, they will defeat any measure
that safeguards clean politics against their activities
hoping that the objections TO the present system viii
prove strong enough to compel compliance with their
demands. Such is the natural outcome of the
policy which gave the people of Colorado a direct pr-
mary law that planned to be objectionable and that
was calculated 10 provoke reaction against the direct
primary plan.
The way TO deal wS such people is to meet them
on their own ground. The present primary law, bad
as 1t IS is not bad the old system of conventions
which put the state government into the hands of the
bosses of Dcnvcr's down town wards If they have
IN their power to prevent proper amendments of the
present primary law, the best thing to do is TO let that
law stand it is.
1t is not likely, however, that they have such power
The great majority of senators and representatives Who
want clean politics and good government in Colorado
nave the power as well the ability get rid of the
absurd provisions forced upon the people BY that same
class OF machine politicians and the same tfrno to
maintain wise safeguards against the restoration of
state government controlled b, a machine and a ma
chime controlled by corrupt bosses thru the vote of tbo

WHY

When Farcnhcit. who gave his name
to tho thermometer In most general
use today. made his extremely inter-
c-sting experiments with varying de-
rrecs of temperature in tho carly part
OF tho Eighteenth Century. no found
that tho lowest temperature which
no could obtain was that secured
from a mixture OF leo and salt This
mixture. which slowly mclts tho salt.
produces n liquid which Is much
colder than water at the freezing
points, degrees above zcro-or
oven OF snow. which might be refer
rcd TO as loosely frozen rain.
Tho addition of coarse salt to snow
or broken particles OF icc. therefore.
CAUSES both the -now and the ice TO
melt. changing tho character Of both.
and producing liquid which has a
much lower freezing point than
water. II salt is applied TO snow in
extremely cold weather. little change
is noticeable because tho resultant
liuuid freezes as fast aa It Is forced.
But. when tho thermometer is around
IS or 80 degrees. the snow will dis
appear rapidly. flowing off in tho
form OF brine. Just as tho icc and salt
in an ice cream freezer soon resolves
itself into substance which romans
liauid at n temperature when plain
water would CONCEAL.

then tho Yankees took up the good

Now artists have begun to flock 10

along admirably together. Both OF

The Romance Of Words
SMACK"


ICopyrirht, 1921, by Tho Wheeler

This word is particularly interest
ing by reason OF its many meanin gss
and different derivations-for ii is a
safe rule to follow that when a word
has moro than one significance, II
say that a parent "smacks" a dis
obodicnt child. that something which
is eaten or drunk ''smacks' OF an
unusual flavor. and at the scashorc,
that we see a feet of fishing
''smacks' starting off for their days
work.
In each Of these instances. tho
word smack. tho spclt and pro-
nounccd precisely tho same. is diff
fcrcnt word. Just as distinct in mean
ing as II is in derivation. In the ease
of the smack which VIC give TO a
child. tho word Is clearly II initiative
origin-thc sound OF tho light quick
blow of tho hand giving rise to the
term itself just AS kiss is sometimes
spoken OF as n smack, or we speak
of someone 'smacking' his lips. In
referring 10 an unusual or rcminis-
cent flavor. the word comes from the
Anglo saxon smacc. to taste. and in
tho case OF small boats. tho word
should properly be spclt snack. for
~ Is derived from III" Saxon snarc or
