j. f. LINDSAY WRITES
ABOUT COLORADO

James E. Lindsay, of Pullman
Wash, former resident of this coun-
ty, and brother of our fellow towns
man, 0. P. Lindsay, recently return
ed from a speaking trip to Col
orado Springs, Col, and was inspir-
ed to write this paper the following
interesting letter:
The early settlers of Colorado had
a famous slogan "Pikes Peak or
Bust" With the rare air on the top
of the 81 fare to ride up, that "bust"
part of the slogan gains added sig
nificance. In protected canyon
east of the peak the settlers built
their first apital-Colorado City.
This is now the west part of Col
orado Springs, which was laid out
with wide streets on the level plain.
Nearby are interesting sights in
plenty. Will Rogers memorial is
seen on the shoulder of Cheyenne
mountains. At night a string of
lights point out the incline up Man
itou. Cave of the winds, and Manitou
springs are on the road to Pixies
Peak, while Garden of the Gods is

RESOLUTIONS PASSED BY FOE
AT CINCINNATI CONVENTION

The following resolutions passed
by the Fraternal Order of Eagles in
convention at Cincinnati, Aug. 18th
to 18th, has been handed this paper
for publication:
First: Resolution urging that the
social security committee of the state
aerie have bill introduced in the
Ohio legislature to create a non-par-
tisan board to administer the divis-
ion of aid for the aged and take it
out of the state welfare department
as means of preventing the chance
of politics in administration of old
age pensions.
Second: One asking that the leg
islature of Ohio pass an amendment
to the old age pension law making
it mandatory that all persons solely
dependent on old age pensions re-
ceive $50 a month.
Third One pledging assistance
in the campaign to secure compen~
sation for occupational diseases in
Ohio, with a special committee to be
named to work to this end.
Fourth: One asking that the
workmens compensation law be
amended so that compensation for
all workers will be figured on the
basis of at least 40 hour week, so
that present inequalities caused by
the fact that some workers are en-
ployed only part time part Of the
year will be eliminated. 1t is pro-
posed to put all workers, part time
and full time, on an equal basis re-
garding workmen's compensation.
