of the finest carpenters in the COM

At meeting of some of the
prominent and Influential citizens

stock at $l0O per share, payable in
ten monthly payments of $40 each,
will be offered to only 100 citizens
who are interested in the welfare

slightly buildings about the city,
using thelumber in erecting modern
four and five-room cottages for tour
ist business. Within the last week

Machol, G. I. Spessard, w. j..
Woodward, w. E. Pasmore, and
E M. Moscript. All of the people
who have heard of the plan are en-
thusiastic about it on account of
its being an organization which
Idaho Springs has needed for many
years. 1t is one in which no man
or woman cannot afford to join on
account of the financial end.
There will be no salaries paid,
no commissions, rake offs or re-
bates, and it will be purely mat
ter of civic pride among the citi-
zens Of Idaho Springs to join in
order to beautify the city and i'm
prove its many resources. The

Robert Roy Breaks
Leg While Wrestling

Robert Roy is hobbling arouno
on crutches as result of getting
his leg hurt on Armistice day
while playing foot ball in a prac-
tice game. He limped around
some after getting hurt, but did
not know that the bone had been
fractured.
On Sunday last he was wrest-
ling with some companions and
broke the bone in his right leg
just below the knee. A physician
was called and the leg put in a
cast. Most people with broken
leg would still be in bed, but Rob
ert is up and about with the aid of
crutches. 1t is hoped by his friends
that no serious results will come
from running around too soon.

Pacific Forti6catiqns

Evidently the matter of Notifications in the Pacific
islands regarded in Japan of much greater import
ance than it is in the United States
There is absolutely purpose of aggression in the
thought of the American people, but the American
experts have assured that sudden raid from Japan
might easily win possession Of the Philippines and also
OF Hawaii and the island fortiications represent to
us nothing than precauton against that danger.
If the Omitted States could be assured that Japan would
not make aggressive against those islands there
is for cxending large amounts for fortifca-
tions there
The japanese profess that they thinking Of fhs
island only the military bases for attack
upon Japan No military expert would regard Japan
csc invasion the Pacific states anything else than
n wild dream. In Of an AmcricanJapancse war,
the Americans would win the in Asiatc waters, or
would let the 60 by default.
If therefore the japanese willing to give rea
sonabc that they peacefully inclined, by
asserting to the proposed ratio of naval armament, by
accepting the provisions for Chinese independence and
by Joining in the four-naion agreement concerning
Pacific islands, there good why the United
States should acquiescc in the japanese proposal
that there should be increase in Pacific island

The Need Of Parties

1t is natural that there SHOULD be criticism of that
part of President Hardings address to congress in
which he appealed to congressman of his party
stand true to the pledges made by he party in the
presidential campaign last year. 1t is natural also that
this criticism should chiefly from those congress-
men who arc themselves most narrow partsnns ",
So much emphasis has been given to the evils OF
partsanship that many persons inclined to forget
that there such things party loyalty and party
responsibility. President Harding has acted wisely in
calling attention the fact that this is party govern
lnent and in warning the nation that it would be
political calamity if parties should fall to pieces and
government should to be matter of coalition
between factions and groups.
The United States needs very much strengthening
of the right kind of pnrsanship Party organizations
should have some other purpose than office getting and
office holding. They should stand for definite prin-
cipes and purposes which should be clearly outlined
their platforms. When successful in elections they
should be held both by the party and by the people to
strict accountability for keeping the pledges they have
made

Problems Of Unemployment

Pueblo is beginning to feel evil condition that
has been experienced by other cities for much longer
time and TO much greater degree. Unemployment is
tie result of readustment and it is also the result
OF delay in readjustment.
In war times labor and in many lines
the demand for the product of industry greatly
increased The result rapid rise in prices and
in wages.
Following the war the demand for certain products
ceased entirely and the demand for other products
greatly reduced Millions of soldiers and workers
returned TO seek place in the industries of peace
time when there lcssened demand for the
products Of those industries The inevitable result
break in the prices of certain articles, the closing of
many factories for lack of ORDERS and general dis
turbnncc of business conditions.
1t is matter of universal knowledge that there
has be rcadjustmcn of wages and Of prices. That
readiustmcn will come way if it docs not come
in another, and the losses of that readjustment will
have to be met But the practical difficulty is that
every person is striving TO delay his part of the
readjustment 5 long possible and to prevent
it altogether.
1t is unfair to blame any person or group for
doing something that every person and every group
trying to do But it is true the less TINT the per,
that opposes readjustment of and of prices

Unless the products of the farm the mine and
the factory can be sold, aud sold profit, uncmpoy-

of production drop below the price at which products
be sold.
