Libraries are Key
Players in Economic
Prosperity
by Councilman Doug Linkhart
Public libraries are
more than buildings
with books. They are
sources of entertain-
ment, early childhood
literacy, school sup-
port, assistance to
entrepreneurs and
small business, adult
education, social con-
nections, job
information, art, cul-
ture, historical
archives, daily news
and, yes, books.
In short, libraries
play a critical role in
the social and eco-
nomic fabric of a community.
Denver’s library system, with
its main library and 23 branches,
is one of our most popular city
services. Ranked as the country’s
number one library system for
several years until recent budget
cuts reduced hours, Denver’s
system is now adding services,
hours and even two new branch-
es.
Mayor John Hickenlooper
used Denver’s main library to
learn about how to start his busi-
ness. I was in the library several
times per week doing economic
research when I had a consult-
ing business. Now I bring my
kids, and we check out books,
DVD’s, audio books and music
CDs.

Church
corner of 25th
Avenue and
Decatur Street on October 6, 1889, in what
was the town of Highlands. In time it would
become  part of Denver. The celebrant was
Dominican Fr. Joseph T. Murphy whose
audience numbered 28 people, a listing of
whom still exists in church records. The
pews and altar had begun life as dry goods
boxes, but attendance grew rapidly, and
it was decided to move services to the old
Highlands Town Hall at 29th and Federal.
The first summer in the new location,

Despite a fire in
February 1891, the
facilities were rebuilt, served by several
interim pastors, until the arrival of Father
Roscoe F. Larpenteur in 1918.  It was he
who oversaw the building of the church
we admire on Federal Boulevard. Designed
by the same architect as that of the Denver
Municipal Auditorium, Robert Willison, the
English Gothic church was built of stone
from quarries in Monte Vista, Colorado,
and Boise, Idaho.
It was dedicated on February 14, 1926,
by Bishop Tihen with dozens of Dominican
priests, brothers and sisters in their white
robes in attendance at this, the home base

of Mr. McCain
One Republican and two
Democratic presidential contenders
remain in the race; the former owes
his success to independent voters
or moderate Republicans, while
the Democrats are still battling it
out.
In grabbing the Republican
presidential nomination, Senator
McCain has departed from
party orthodoxy regarding
political finances, worked on
restoration of diplomatic ties
with Vietnam, denounced torture
and rejected tax cuts decided by
the current president without an
accompanying reduction in public
spending. Above all, he is locked
in a debate with the extremists of
his party as far as immigration
and the imposition of the religious
right's “traditional values” on all
Americans.
As for foreign policy, the senator
from Arizona fares well with the
most hallucinating hawks of his
party. This is why many neo-cons
rallied behind him. A perfect image
the champion of a “Judeo-Christian
nation” opposing “Islamo-
fascism”, he intends on “winning”
the war in Iraq, “frontline of the
war against terror.”
Against a backdrop of
maintained commercial liberalism,
the senator’s expected diplomacy
includes a continuation of the war
in Iraq with increased material;
an increase in military spending;
hard-line relations with Russia;
the creation of a “League of
Democracies” in substitution of the
UN, hence bypassing its charter
and encumbrances when the US
and its allies decide to interfere on
the world stage and, a pugnacious
approach toward relations with
China and the recalcitrant nations
of Latin America, in particular
Venezuela.
If Mr. McCain is elected, and if
his will is imposed on the rest of the
world, the American Empire may
again look for rosy days ahead.
For the US will relax its already
weighty military capacity, while
brushing an offense when other
non-allied nations would have the
guts to do much less; the US will use
commerce as a diplomatic weapon
but will forbid other nations to
follow suit. Without any doubt the
Republican contender has already
announced that “our country may
not afford the kind of dumps,
drift and spinelessness which
followed the Vietnam War. The
next president must lead America
and the world to victory.”
On the Democratic Party side,
Senators Hillary Clinton and
Barack Obama have both called
for a broad reform of US foreign
policy that would include better
cooperation with other nations and
bilateral talks with enemy nations.
Hence a more internationalist
approach to foreign policy, and an
abolition of the current simplistic
division of the world into good
and evil. For Mrs. Clinton, the
best policy in Iraq would be to
progressively redeploy US troops
in the region. In her opinion, we
cannot force other nations and
peoples to accept American values.
We have to support those who
embrace them and lead by deed
and example.
In a competition, unfortunately,
a divided party cannot win. It is
elementary. While both Democratic
senators seem to agree on a
visionary style of leadership, we
worthily note that Senator Clinton
had authorized the war in Iraq
back in 2002, while Senator Obama
had voted against it. In this respect,
they are fundamentally different.
Democracy in America has
always been exemplary, and
a wake-up call to the Bush era
democracy have been mistreated,
the emergence of Mr. Obama
and his popularity witness to the
awakening of the conscience of our
people vis-à-vis the danger of the
“bushist” deviationism.
Rare are indeed the nations who
have engaged in a real war yet
remained attached to the rules of
democracy. The example of Great

remained respected.
The worrisome situation of an
eventual victory of the Republicans
here at home as well as on an
international scale, is not the kind
that would concern the American
electorate. Will our fortunes reverse
if Mr. McCain is elected?
—Robert Sand
  The supper club style of the
Soiled Dove is the perfect setting
for the vintage entertainment of
Burlesque As It Was, and they’re
pleased as punch to be playing this
gorgeous room with it’s state-of-
the-art lighting and sound. They
feel positively spoiled!
  Celebrating their 10 year
anniversary this summer, Burlesque
As It Was has been shimmying and
shimmering on stages from San
Diego to New York City since 1998
when they emerged as one of the
first Neo-Burlesque Troupes. They
are still considered to be one of the
preeminent and most influential
burlesque groups performing today.
At the helm is Michelle Baldwin,
a.k.a. Vivienne VaVoom, creator
and creative director of the troupe
and author of the definitive book
on the new burlesque Burlesque
and the New Bump-n-Grind.
  Our  Hostest with the Mostest,
Big Mama Red, is a sultry songstress
and bawdy jokester channeling a
lil' Sophie Tucker, Bette Midler and
Mae West while singing bluesy,

Denver Art Museum and
Anschutz Collection Jointly
Acquire Thomas Eakins
Painting
The Denver Art Museum (DAM)
has announced the joint acquisition
of Cowboy Singing, an 1892 paint-
ing by renowned American painter
Thomas Eakins. The Museum is
partnering with the Denver-based
Anschutz Collection to purchase
the work from the Philadelphia
Museum of Art. In addition to
Cowboy Singing, the DAM will
independently acquire two sketches
related to Eakins’ 1888 painting
Cowboys in the Badlands. The three
new works will go on view at the
Denver Art Museum immediately.
“The addition of Cowboy
Singing marks a milestone for the
Museum and exemplifies the com-
mitment we have to making Denver
a major center for western art,” said
Denver Art Museum director Lewis
Sharp. “We are grateful to the
Anschutz Collection for making this
acquisition possible and for helping
bring a major painting by one of
