MAKING VOTES FOR SWEET

1t Is not considered very good news
paper ethics for country weekly
newspaper to take issue with city
daily, but we cannot refrain from re-
marking that the Grand Junction
News. the Republican political organ
in Grand Junction. showed themsel-
YES up as rotten In their writcup
last Sunday morning OF the Demo-
cratic rally held In the armory ut
Grand Junction Inst Saturday night.
We cannot believe TINT Editor
Adams himself would show such IT,
noeance, and think that 1t must have
l,een one Of his undcrstudies. and we
nre here to state that II we had an
ernploye in our employ etlitoriahy
that would write such m insulting
lUw.down report of an affair Of this
kind for either political party. that
We would tie the can to him ut O'scc.
or ives It possible that the. News had
no reporter present at this huge gath
cring. This may have been possible,
first place. the News states came
thu appea rance Of Wesley Staley, can
ditnte for state treasurer, and Ed
ward T Taylor. once more In the race
for the Congressional goal" while as
II matter of fact Wesley Staley was
not present at the meeting. but was
In Denver at the time. The News fur
tl,er state IAN audience numbering
nearly seven hundred persons assem-
lied In the armory to see and hear
the heads Of the Democratic state
ticket In Colorado" We have 1t hrst
hand from the man in charge OF the
armory building last Saturday night
that there were eight hundred chairs
In the room. and we do know that 1t
was impossible for the ushers to fnd
a vacant one. that extra chairs were
put in. and that many people were OBJ
lieed to stand beTause Of lack OF
seats. oh yes. we know what we are
talking about. because We Was Right
There helping to do honor to Our
Ed" Taylor; and william f Sweet,
Coloratlo's Next Governor.
We believe in fair play, and such
an article as was published by the
News we consider an afrrOnt to de-
cent newspaperdOm. There were many
Republicans In the audience, and even
though they were convinced by the
speeches of Messrs. Taylor and Sweet
they most assilredly will be convinced
that there Is something "rOtten" in
Republicanism when they read the
News article.
Our advice to the News Ia to shoot
square with the reading public and at
Ieast tell the truth when 1t comes to
matters Of public interest. we he
Iieve. even though the News is Repuh
lean, that the reading public. both Il.
publicans and Democrats. would feel
more kindly toward this paper II they
had ignored this meeting entirely
rather than camoufage 1t in the wav
they did.
And such camou1agcd articles will
make votes for Sweet Ed. Taylor
don't need any additional votes. He'll
have plenty as II is.
BY the way. even though you were
seated In your editorial sanctOrium
several blocks from the armOry In.
stead Of being present to get true
report Of the meeting. did you fal; to
,,ear that Real demonstration from
lie vast audience of Democrats and
Republicans when OUR ED" TAY.
LOR entered the building!

PRIESTS IN PARLIAMENT
CLERGY MAY SIT IN COMMONS IF
NEW BILL PASSES ALL
CHURCHES FAVORABLE TO
MEASURE.

Two Catholic clerics attended meet
ing held recently in London in the
House of Commons. Clergy of all de-
nominations gathered to discuss with
members of that body the revision of
the existing law whereby Catholic
priests as we'll as clergymen of the
Church of England and ordained
ministers of the Free Churches, are
disqualified from membership in the
lower branch of parliament.
The Catholic representatives, Mon
signors Brown and Grosch, assured the
meeting that the proposed measure
has the sympathy and support of their
ecclesiastical authorities.
AS a result of the meeting, the
Anglican Bishop of Birmingham, who
Sits in the House of Lords as a spir-
itual peer, has promised to introduce
the proposed measure in the Upper
House at the earliest opportunity.
The political disqualification of cIer.
les does not extend to local politics or
government, since a priest, or a min.
lister or clerk in holy orders (the of
fetal denomination of an Anglican
clergyman), can be elected to the
Guardians of the Poor, or as a munici
pal councilman or alderman, or even
as Mayor or lord Mayor.

AS A MASON SEES US

creeds, rife with discussion over non
essentials; disunited as to any "Aasic
faith;', driving those who disagree
with us out of the fold, to form new
sects and creeds; absence of loyalty
or enthusiasm on the part of our serv.
ants or communicates, who are always
too busy to carry into effect any
needs of our vaunted creed; ministers
refusing to occupy Protestant pulpits
unless compensated upon a layman's
basis, and always open to a consider
alton for a more lucrative post; gen.
eralship deficient in the first principles
of warfare and impotent to command
even the public press in Protestant
land; a sales department that not
even a cobbler would employ, dis
grace and laughing stock for our
opponent; every difference of opinion
in our councils heralded throughout
the land as heresy; every scandal
given the widest publicity.
Another Answer.
When we seek for the answer, it is
as plain as the nose on a mans face
-"unfaith, unbelief!"
A Romanist lives up to his faith and
is so thoroughly convinced of its eff
ficiency that he becomes a most eff
cient salesman. His solicitation is ir-
resistible. His wares may be the
worst on the market, but he puts them
over, he brings home the bacon, he
delivers the goods. If Roman Ste
nographer sits across the desk from
Protestant one, do you have any
hesitancy in your mind as to which
one will do the solicitation? If a Ro
man wife has Protestant husband,
do you halt in your opinion as to the
results? Solicitation? Yes, and sales
manship OF the very highest order,
and the service = rendered to the
Church, absolutely gratis!
Do / believe in solicitation? You
bet l do-of the right kind. l don't
believe in solicitation of candidates
for ANY of the Degrees of Masonry.
Facts show that most of our passen-
gers are dead-heads. But when any
OF you get the solicitation fever, just
try it on YOUR FAITH. See how it
works.
In the meanwhile, don't poster me
by telling me how the Romans are
controlling everything in America.
Either do something constructive to
stop it, or get out of here and stop
blowing about your Protestant Faith,
and stop propagating Ku Klux Klans.
Ii your Faith was but mustard seed,
there would be some real SOLICITA-
TlON going on. Shut up, or put up

GERMANS AID MISSIONS
PEOPLE ASSISTING GENEROUSLY,
IN SPITE OF POVERTY.

Germany, despite the loss of the
war and the fact that it does not know
how to pay the enormous reparation
that is required, has, out of it's pow
erty, managed to maintain practically
all its charitable works and has even
established organizations for work in
new fields.
The missions of the whole world
have suffered great damage during
the war and their appeal has not found
the German people deaf. AS in the
United States, which has seen re-
markable development in this regard
in the last few years, the movement
has been extended and has been taken
up with cOmmendable enthusiasm by
pupils in the schools.
The center Of the whole missionary
work in Germany is Aix-la- Chapelle
and the Franciscus-Xaver
the central agency of which is located
there, does the greater part of the
work. The president of the union is
Cardinal Schultz, Archbishop of Co
logne.
