plenteous harvests and the prospect
ty of the people. Such expressions
have come to be regarded as mat
ter of form, but the RECORD thinks
this year should be an exception. No
year since the war have SO many ca
lamities bcfallen the American peo-
Pile. The assassination of the presi-
dent was followed by tine most COR
tinuous drouth known for years. 1t
extended from the lakes to the gulf
states, and over that vast area of ter
ritory there is very little over half q
crop of wheat, corn, fruits, cotton or
tobacco. This was succeeded by the
devastation, by fire, of several coun-
ties in Michigan, rendering over five
thousand families homeless. These
calamities have been followed by
commercial and bank failures. fires,
storms and shipwrecks, both on sea,
lake and river, in greater numbers
and more appalling loss of life and
property than has been experienced
for many years. Indeed it would
seem as if the Deity was angry at the
foul crime which had been commit
ted. with brazen and hcllish effrontry,
in His name.
Aside from this matter, the mes
sage seems TO be concise review of
the condition of the various depart
ent effort at rhetorical fourishes or
straining for effect. II indicates that,
while Mr.. Arthur may not be very
brilliant man, he will make a cautious
conservative president.

The Presidents Message.

The following shows how Presi-
dent Arthur's first message is re-
garded by the two leading papers of
this state:
The first message of President
Arthur. which we print to-day, is
one of the best documents that ever
left the White House. 1t covers the
ground of National and international
economy with a thoroughness which
leaves no possible room for caviling,
and it does it so concisely tina: it
makes interesting reading even for
those who take little time for mes
|sages of this character. The review
of International affairs is very COM
plete aud statesmanlike, while the
facts concerning our National and
internal affairs are given with COM
mendable terseness.
To the West, there are three points
in the message of unusual interest
They relate TO the Indians, to the
cow-5ovs. and to the Mormons. On
these three themes the message is out
spoken and decisive, and the presi-
dent shows that he has splendid
courage, fearing neither that milky
sentisnentalism of the East, which
has been frequent curse to the
West, nor the power OF a church
which has so long defied the govern
ment of the Nation.
The message will, in fact, 90 even
more to give President Arthur the
respect of the country and of the
world, than the excellent statesman
ship which he has shown in his deeds
of the two past months. He bore
himself well in n trying moment; he
showed admirable courage, skill and
patriotism in his actions, aud he now
gives to the Nation q document
which is the best that has ever left
the White House, except, perhaps,
those which were produced during
the ordeals of the Republics early
life and of the rebellion; and Presi-
dent Arthur must to-day be acknowl-
edged as standing at the head of the
Nation, not only i'll the official posi-
ton which the law accords him, but
also in the highest ability of states
manship.-Denver Republican.
President Arthur's first annual
message is comprehensive and able
document. 1t will go long way
toward raising the Chief Magistrate
OF the Republic ia the estimation of
the people. II evidences the writer's
thorough acquaintance with public
affairs, and tits specially remarkable
from the fact that it emanates from
q man who has been at the head of
the government loss than three
months.
As a literary effort It Is weak as =

The Bows in Canon city had better

The boys in Canon City had Better
go slow little. A dispatch from
Albuquerque says. that Jack Winn, a
commercial traveller, was lynched in
Arizona by mistake for cattle thief
Since our boys got their hands in on
the tramp, they had rope around
another fellows neck, and gave him a
hoist or two, but finally let him go
on promise of leaving town. Better
take care, boys, or you may strangle
the wrong man, and then an apology
would hardly cover the case. A
joke is joke. but to hang or emas-
culate man by mistake, is carrying
it little too far.

clusively by the railroad company,
giving fifteen ear loads of the coal
produced at Canon and now consum-
ed by the railroad to the public. The
output of bituminous coal at Crested
Butte is ten cars per day, which
makes further reduction of the
amount of Canon coal heretofore used
by the railroad. Within two weeks
anthracite coal will be shipped from
Crested Butte directly to the Denver
five cars day. The outlook for coal
production in Colorado is certainly
very encouraging.

DIR. Dawson presented bill of $50
for medical attendance on the emas-
culated prisoner. now in the city
hospital.
DR.. Dawson was asked to explain
why the prisoner was in the city hos-
pitai at the expense of the town iu-
stead of the county. He explained.
He said the prisoner was in charge
of the town when he received the in:
jury. The law said no one could be
county charge unless two months q
resident of the county. This man
had been here only few weeks. He
had to be taken somewhere from the
calaboosc after he had been injured
and he was removed to the hospital.
The charge there for his Keeping
would be ST per day, and he only rem
dered bill of $50, because he wanted
to make it as light as he could on the
town. He had rendered $50 worth
of services already, but he would
make no further charge until the
man recovered, unless the case should
prove too protracted. The Doctor
then, in response to an apparent de-
sire for light on the subject, entered
into a lengthy dissertation on the
manner in which the operation had
been performed. He said it was well
but rather roughly done. The city
fathers seemed satisfied.
Mr.. Lewis thought the charges
were reasonable enough, but the
question was whether they should
not be paid by the county.
Mr.. Skeele asked DIR. Dawson If he
meant to say that if any one comes
here from the east and becomes in.
jured or destitute, the county would
not pay for their succvr? DIR. Daw-
son said no he had frequently sent
them back to the county they came
from and drew on the county for the
bill.
Capt. Ferrier thought it would not
Rs fsig t9 allow AEa Reaslxs- sfsths
Mr.. Skeele was opposed to paying
the Doctors bill. Mr.. Ashby thought
if the town was in for it they would
have to pay. Capt. Ferrier believed
the town was liable. He knew all
thought the fellow was served right
and on that account would be willing
to foot the bills.
Mr.. Ashby moved. seconded by
Capt Ferrier, thst DIR. Dawson's bill
be paid. Carried.
Messrs. Rice Bros. asked permits
