WASHINGTON, April 21.—Use of federal troops in the enforcement of the foot and mouth embargo on traf- fic between California and Arizona, is ‘illegal and requests that troops be made available for that work ‘were denied today by Secretary ‘Weeks. ———$<_<—__ MARKET BRIEFS NEW YORK, April 21.—Prices of ‘Wyoming oils at 2 p. m. today were Usted on the New York curb as follows. Standard Ol] (indiana) 56%; Glen. rock 35; Mountain Producers 18; Mutual 10%; Omar 68; Salt Creek 23%. One of the best indications of the oil and gas activity that has struck Colorado is the number of geologists who are going into consulting work nd the fact that all of them seem to have more work than they can do. The latest addition to the ranks of consulting geology is E. Russell Lioyd, éhief geologist for the Marine- Glenrock-Royalty and Producers group of companies of which Max ‘W. Ball is president. Lloyd and Ball were associated for a number of years in the United States geological survey, during which time Lloyd worked in the West and in Okla. homa, was made chairman of the Coal Board, and later was put in charge of the section of ofl and gas statistics. He left the government to become chief geologist for the Sin- clair-Wyoming ofl company, later be- came chief geologist for the Mid Kansas, the Ohio Ol! company's pro- ducing company in Texas, Oklahoma, and Kansas, and became chief geolo- gist for the Marine group soon after Ball became president. It 1s under- stood that he will continue to super- vise the geologic work of the Marine- Glenrock-Royalty and Producers companies.

LIQUOR FACTOR TAKES PLAGE IN PENN ELECTION Governor Pinchot Candi- date For Delegate At Primaries Tmorrow PHILADELPHIA, April 21—The withdrawal of his support from Goy- ernor Pinchot for one of Pennsyl- vania’s delegates at large to the Re- publican national convention by rep- resentative William 8. Vare, a Re- publican leader of this city and the governor's retort that the liquor question prompted the congress- man’s action, have increased interest in tomorrow's primaries. ‘There is much speculation as to the effect Mr. Vare's opposition will have on the governor's candidacy. The congressman announced he would support Ralph Beaver Strass- burger, wealthy Norristown publish- er, for delegate at large against the governor, who is one of the seven slated candidates of the. Republican state organization, Declaring that “liquor or law en- forcement” Js the issue and that the Philadelphia organization “is regular when liquor is regular, otherwise not,” Governor Pinchot last night Said the state organization “stands by its guns and proposes to finish what it has started.” He said it did not matter whether he was elected a delegate at large or not, but that it was of the utmost importance whe- ther the people of Pennsylvania were going “to yield to the little handful of Philadelphia ward politicians who planned this knifing.”* The governor expressed resent- ent at what he characterized rep- resentative Vare's effort to drag in nd hide behind President Coolidge, whose nomination, he added, ‘“‘no- body questions.” Representative Vare gave as his NEW YORK, April 21.—Copper steady; electrolytic, spot and futures 13% @13%.

Today, Lou, who died a convict, but who per- haps was known to more of Den- ver's poor than any other man be- causo of his charities, was generally mourned. A large group of friends who hac known him for year—persons who had been helped financially by Lou during his reign here as a political power, were on hand when his body arrived from°Canon City. Through- out the forencon, according to at- taches at the mortuary where his body les, an endless stream of per- sons called to pay their last respects. Wlonger, 74 years old, died in the prison hospital within the peniten- tiary walls early yesterday morning after an illness that became serious two weeks ago. Lou had long been a sufferer from heart and stomach disease, but according to’ those who knew him best, melancholia was the direct cause of his cemise. Two weeks ago, when the state's answer to his plea for an appeal was filed in the state supreme court, Lou abandoned all desire to live. His decline dated from the time the state supreme court refused to grant him a writ of supersedaes, which would have permitted his re- lease on bond pending a review of has conviction, As a result of this refusal he was removed to the state prison on October 19 last. Since his arrival there he had been confined in the hospital of the penitentiary, continually under the watchful eye of a prison physician, The life af Lou Blonger ts inter- twined with the history ané ro- mance of the early days of Colorado. Coming to the state in the early days of the gold rush Blonger went through the boom days of Cripple Creek and Leadville. He and his brother, Sam, became rich through their location of the Forest Queen mine in the Cripple Creek district, a property which still is held by his wife. Blonger was arrested in city their 0.

Fell heritage to, and forever after, placed the stamp of honor upon the workman's bench. . From those exemplary days of young manhood, He stepped out upon threshold of public activity to fulfil His redemptive mission. He called men and they followed, they walked with Him thru all His un- precedented career. They were wearied with Him, they pledged un- dying allegiance to Him and then forsook Him and fled. He went thru the testing out period and came forth clearvisioned and ambitious to do His Father's will. He taught men to say “Our Father.” He made God plain for human understanding, He brought God near—so near that the blind saw, the deaf-heard, the lame walked, winning popular favor until men said, “Let's make Him king,” and then He disappeared, only to show up again where need was greatest. So positive was he that none had truer friends nor more bitter enem- ies. He taught us,‘by example, the rules of brotherhood. He explained many mysteries, and in their stead gave us many more. His enemies combined to bring about His death, In their hand He adopted a policy of non-resistance. “As a lamb be- fore the shearers is dumb, so He opened not His mouth.” They hu- miliated Him, they harassed Him, they mocked Him, they jeered Him, they scourged Him, they pressed the crown of throns about His forehead, they nailed Him upon the cross— only to hear in return, “Father, for- give them.” In the hand of His enemies He went down—nonresist- in; Lord. Have we, His followers, the courage to apply His example to our presenftt day affairs? . First Presbyterian ‘The great fact of the resurrection of Christ, by which he was declared to be the Son of God with power, stands out everywhere prominently on the pages of the New Testament as the foundation of the Christian faith. It rests on the best historic evidence known to jurists. The story of the poisoning of Socrates comes from two men—from an essay by Plato, and a page from Xenophon —all other accounts are echoes from the two friends of the philosopher. So slender is the evidence for the assassination of Tulius Caesar that our faith depends upon one little page written by a Roman gentleman. Renan says that Jesus did not rise from the dead, and supports his af- firmation by a process of reason- ing. Paul says that he did rise from. the cead, and puts a case supported by evidence which would have been received in any court of low in the Today He is our risen, victorious! ‘Last of all, as unto one born out € due time, he appeared to me’ also.’ Local circumstances con. Girmed their testimony. was empty. All agreed to that. The tomb had been guarded by sixty Roman soldiers. Sixty armed so}. diers had let him be taken away, Jesus had risen from the dead. Mary saw him. Cleopas saw him. Ten disciples in an upper room saw him. ‘Two disciples going in the country saw him. On a mountain eleven disctples saw him. Five hundred saw him at one time, Thomas would not believe that the other disciples had seen him, but when he saw him himself, he cried, “My Lord and my God.’ % ‘The testimony of these Witnesses was accepted in their way. If false or if they had been mistaken, jt would have been easy to have re. futed their testimony. On one day ithree-thousand people who knew all the facts, confessed their faith in the risen Christ. Note the time ot the testimony; not years after, but three days after. Before the rags of the Jews was quelled, amid much opposition and in broad daylight, the testimony was given. Note the place: not distant, but a Jerusalem, in the synagogues, in the Praetorium Note the tribunals: Jews and hea-! then, philosophers, rabbis, couriers, and lawyers. If they had been tm.
