To the Editor of THE CHIEF:
A few cool nights with the late showers
have cleared away the drovsiness Of the late
heated term. Nevertheless the days seem to
have grown warmer again, and the ranchmen
are hoping the nights will not bring frost Ito
kill) before the equinox. Crops are invaria-
bly, good. In the bottoms the grain is yield
ing we'll on the Rogers mesa the growth is
fair. Jack Barry and Frank Hoppe are here
with their threshers, knocking out the grain
aud doing good work. Oats are yielding
about fifty bushels per acre. A few have
thre-he,i, many are stacking, while Others are
stll in the harvest.
One feature which seems to be common is
the sugar cane that half of the farmers are
raj sing. 1t is to he hoped that good mills
with effic eat operators will be at work soon
to produce the sorghum, which we trust will
take the place of the miserable syrups that
are doIed out now. There are perhaps thirty
acres grown this wear, and we hope it may be
doubled next.
J. X. Smith has raised splendid volunteer
oats, and We learn that this is not uncommon
here.
Every location on the Rogers mesa is claim
ed. Nearly 400 acres were sown TO small
grain, besides corn and other crops. Parker
has excellent melons, and McGinty some of
tnt lurkcst sVuasnes. ny Tue why ne mas
promised us one of them to last us through
the wintet. that is when they get their growth.
A few have watched their crops night and
day, not having them fenced. We learned a
lesson in 81 in regard to that that we shall
never forget, and We would advise these
ranchmen not to do so again. 1t is too much
pork for a shilling"
The Leroux ditch has furnished nearly all
the water for the mesa crops.
Ii is said that the old log school house at
Hotchkiss is to be replaced by one to suit the
times, 24xI0. and that prince of teachers, J.
b. McGinty, is engaged to teach tins year.
A visit was made to the orchard of Enos
7. Hotchkiss' to look up some fruit. We
found but little, a couple of peaches and
few OF the earlier variety of apples Ii he
has no fruit this year he certainly has \
growth of trees that is gratifying.
Mr.. IIotchkiss has sold his herd Of cattle
to Denver party for $40 per head. That is
almost rs good as small gold mine.
Mrs. Estes has been sick with the lever, but
is now convalcscent.
S. II. Pratt, of Gunnison, and \ Mr. Law.

NORTH FORM, Sept. 5, 1885.
To the Editor Of THE CHIEF.
Your sturdy exposure of the true inward
ness Of our county's affairs has caused quite
a rattling among the dry bones in this vicin-
itv. If the people do not remedy existing
evils, after these tim.ly warnings. they de-
serve to be deceived The remedy is in their
hands.
The prime cause OF incompetent and dis
homes; officials, in any county. is dishonest
aud Indifferent voters. In our primaries u
few interested and often interruptions men,
who have private ends to subserve. dictate
nominations, elect themselves delegates, and
in general map ont the ground plan Of the
election. II the people will send none but
honest and incorruptible men as delegates TO
their conventions. ! would guarantee none
but honest and incorruptible men would be
nominated for office. Let the people turn
out 10 their primaries and tue election will
take care Of itself People may find pleasure
by paying for their Indifference, as man
with the Itch finds some comfort in scratch
ing. In either case such enjoyment is not
very profitable.
On one point would take issue with THE
CHIEF. Should any unworthy man, BY any
of the ways that are dark and tricks that
are VAIN" peculiar to caucuses and convcn-
ti"us. get a nomination, ! believe he should
should bo quietly sat down upon At the polls
and the other mau he supported, if he was
better, without regard to the diction of party
or the crack of the party whip.
Bv what process of contraction or eHpan-
sion have the county central committee.

cure the election of certain members of the
court house ring. The new enterprise will
be welcome. aud it will have its hand, full to
carry out ITS projectors designs. When any
certain clique of men have to resort to estab.
fishing newspapers in order to carry gu, their
ends, there is something rotten at the bottom
of it, and if they should succeed the tax

the working people IA large portion of this

III luxury of the proceeds. Fellow citizens,
You cannot fail to see that our county under
the present management, is fast approaching
TO the brink Of that quagmire from which it
Will take year. of heavy taxation to eSr!cate
it. From a debt Of Sll 900 assumed by this
present Delta county upon her release AS a
part Of Gunnison county in 1888, il has risen
to a present debt of about $4,000. This
would not be so bad If we had anything to
show for it, bu, we have absolutely nothing
Of any consequence in the way of county im.
provements. Then where has this money
gone to: Not ss = reflection, but simply
an illustration, when a man come. into a
county poor, gets INTO a county Office in a
county Of the third elias. where the salaries
are small, aud at the end of couple of
years the county is heavily in debt and the
county official has built hImselfa fine resi-
dence, owns large tracts OF land, stock, etc,
and lived in luxury during the meantime,
thi. fact Is suggestive Of what? Let Us
pause moment and look at the financial
standing OF few OF the surrounding count
les Ii has been reliably stated 10 us that
the present deb; of Mon,rose county il not far
from S92 900. But Montro,e county has had
several costly criminal trials, which have
served to increase the debt largely. but
county Improvements she has but few. Take
that OF Gunnison county, where they have to
issue ss0, 900 in warrants TO psy oil S 900
interest. Ask yourself wiat real estate is
worth in a county where heavy taxations are
being cons family levied.
1t is in the power of the ranchmeu TO
throw on this CALLING yoke, and no amount
of soft soapinc, campaign newspaper t~addie
or explosions OF wind will cause 1h.m to vote
against their own interests this tall.

THE Delta Chicfis is making grand noise
because the Delta county Treasurer receives
about s, 600 annually for his services, and is
not kept employed all the time either. Gun
nisen county taxpayers used to sit quietly
by while her County Treasurer received about
$1,000 n year and supposed thev had no
riyh, to complain. More than this they SAW
the Treasurer unlawiully deduct n per cent
from the school funds many times what the
law allowed and did not kick.-Gunnison
Rcpi,ir. Press.
In this connection an idea strikes us. Four
wears ago, when the incumbent of the Office
of Treasurer OF Gunnison county WAS first
elected he was not possessed of enough funds
to pay ordinary running expenses, and now
he is one of the largest cattle owners Of that
county. nll made by strict application to bust
ness.
