dietary the house bill, passed May Is, to pro-
vide for the restoration TO citizenship of such
citizens of the United States as have become
naturalized as subjects Of Great Britain and
desire TO return to their original allegiance.

tween the United States and Great Britain
concluded May 80, 1870, which provides that
" if any citizen Of the United States natural
lied within the dominiOns of her Britanic
majesty shall renew his residence in the
United States the United States government
may, ON his own application and on such con-
dtions as that government may think fit to
impose, roadmit him to the character and
privileges of a citizen Of the United States,
and Great Britain shall not in that case claim
him as II British subject on account Of his
former naturalization"

A word to the Commissioners.
or of THE CHIEF

10 tne lIultor OF lHE SHlEF:
LOWER GuNNIsoN, June 81 wish to call
the attention of the citizens of our county to
the matter of laying the county off into vot-
ing and commissioner districts. Why was the
Surface creek petition laid on the table, and
at previous meeting of the Commissioners,
they made two precincts of North Fork and
Smiths Fork9 Now, to show the inconsist-
ency of this, wish to draw attention to few
facts which certainly should make the Com
missioners ashamed of their action. Surface
creek, Forked Tongne and the district which
the inhabitants of that section wish to have
made into voting precinct contain now by
actual count eighty-fve votes, whilst that of
North Fork and Smiths Fork at last falls
election polled only seventy votes. Truly, as
all our Commissioners are from that section,
they want the lions share, and then try to
palm it Off on us that they are using econo-
my, as it costs about $50 to run an election.
If we are not to have any more conveniences
by being a new county we had better 90 back
to the mother county. If the Commissioners
will do what Is just by making precinct out
of Surface creek, Forked Tongue, and sur
rounding country, and make a voting pre-
cinct at the mouth of the Rio Escalante, IL
miles below Delta, they would grant only
what the people of the two sections have a
right to demand. We do not advocate the
squandering the county funds, but give us
some of the convenience that are due the pub
lie.
Now as the time is approaching for these
gentlemen to lay off the county into three
commissioner districts, we would ask them to
act with some discretion and not place all
these offices in the eastern end of the county
If the Commissioners will look over the
county and consider the vote cast last fall,
they cannot help but divide it into the follow
ing districts: North Fork and Smiths Fork
and their tributaries, one district Surface
creek, Forked Tongue, Dry creek, and the
north side Of the Gunnison from the mouth Of
the canon down, another district thetown of
Delta, the Uncompahgre valley and south side
of the Gunnison the third district. This to
any fiir-minded person can only be considered
what is about fair. GuNNIsoN.

FROM tHe Shleltllll
The big tree must go The work of carry
ing out the order of the City Council began
in earnest yesterday morning, and during the
day the vandals were climbing all over it
with saws, axes, pulleys and ropes, having
ladders fastened along the limbs. The very
first thing done was to girdle the monster, SO
to make sure thing of killing him, wheth-
er they ever got through the job Of dismem-
bering or not The work of severing and let
ting down the huge limbs without making
damage is no easy one, and but little pro-
gress was made yesterday. " 1t is a blinked
blanked shame" was heard all along the
street all day long. But after the girdling
operation had been completed people realized
then that it was too late to make objections.
Some, however, insist that by all the gods of
war the rest of the cottonwoods on Union
avenue shall go too. If vandalism prevails,
then everything goes. II the big tree dies,
the woodman most make a holocaust of all
the trees in town. There have been various
misstatemcnts as the circumference of the big
tree. The actual girth of the old fellow
yard from the ground is just twenty-o feet.
At the level of the ground it is twenty-five
feet eight inches. Years ago, before Union
avenue was filled up to its present grade, the
fill being three or four feet, the circumference
of the tree ut the base was twenty-six feet
and two inches. This would make its greatest
Diameter nearly nine feet. We have never
heard of anybody Gisputing the assertion that
it is the biggest tree in Colorado. It's age can
probably be obtained approximately by
counting the annular marks in the trunk al
ter it has been cut down. The Chicttain has
been authorized to offer $40 for cross section
of the trunk near the ground, and we would
also suggest that a section ought to be sent
to the Exposition. There have also been
stories told to the effect that all the way from
three to seven different nen have been hung
from the big tree Il. various times when the
town was young and br..sh. All such are
imaginary tales, invented for the ediication
Of -awe-strirken tendcrfeet; aud the crime of
murder has never stained the old monarchs
record. II would have been cut down long
ago had it chanced TO rear its bulky form
foot in either direction toward the east or the
west side of the street"
