The Gem OF the Re.ervation.

Why is Delta destined to be the hub of the
Reservation? Because it lies in the extreme
central point. Because it is so situated as to
command the handling of nearly the entire
product and output of the Gunnison and I'm
compahgre valleys and tributaries. Because
she is the center of one of the most extensive
and richest agricultural regions in the West.
Because her inexhaustible coal beds will
soon be the source of supply for the manu-.
featuring and milling establishments of the
surrounding country her coke will supply
the smelters in the different mining camps.
Because she is the pre-destined confluence of
two great railroads-the Denver & Rio
Grande down the Uncompahgre, and the
Denver & South Park down the Gunnison.
Because her winters are mild and her elm.
ate adapted to the cultivation and product
ion of the different cereals, which, as shown
in the past, grow with surprising thrift and
to wonderful proportions. Because her
citizens are most energetic class of people !;
her business men, while at the same time
advancing their own interests, do all in their
power and do not let an opportunity slip
whereby they can do profit to their town and
her surrounding country. Town lots here
are now selling at very reasonable figure.
and every nducement possible is offered by
the Town Company to induce business men
and residents to make this their stand. Not
only are the rivers and the creek bottoms
everywhere surrounding Delta inhabited and
farmed, but the uplands and higher mesas
also. These mesas constitute vast tract OF
excellent agricultural land, great portion
of it which is now under water, and 1t will
only be short time until these mesa farms
will be rated among the most productive and
valuable in the county. Everywhere sur
rounding Delta Craze thousands Of cattle and
sheep, and stockmen say the finest stock
ranges in Colorado are there. Delta, as yet,
is but in her infancy, but our vivid imagin.
alton sees future for her ten years hence
that will justly award to her the title Of the
Gem of the Reservation, and people locating
here now, whose effects are but few in this
world, will soon be reaping the golden harv-
ests ofhonest toll, and praise the destiny
that turned their wandering footsteps here
and gave them home in the Paradise of the
West

Delta. New school House.

Among one of the many Improvements
now under way in Delta is her new school
house. Work is now under way excavating
the foundation, and its erection from now on
will be pushed with vigof. In an interview
with Mr.. Martin, of Martin & Davis, con-
tractors, he said the contract called for its
completion on the LIST Of September, but said
that they would push work so to have 1t
completed by the middle of July or the LIST
of August. The building will cost, when
completed, about ~ 900, the grounds being
donated, and from the plans shown Us by
Mr.. Martin, will be the finest in Southwest.

Through invitation of the members, a
CHIEF reporter was invited to attend one of
the regular meetings of the Chautauqua of
Delta, held on last Friday evening. The
c. L. S. c., originally, was organized in 1873
now having its central office established at
PIainfeld, N. J. More than sixty thousand
names are now enrolled as members of this
society throughout the country, and the So
ciety is daily gaining affluence and strength
as the leading school at home or the home
teacher of science and literature of America.
The branch organization at Delta was or
ganized in Oct 18th, 1884, and now numbers
some fifteen members, who are making ex-
cellent progress in their different studies.
From the following lessons it will readily be
conceived that as teacher and instructor Of
the masses, the pre-eminence of the Chautau-
qua is unrivaled:
Reading by Mrs. R. D. Blair-subject,
Socrates questions and answers in chemistry
by the entire class Greek readings and in
structions in Greek history ;debate-resolved
"That the tramp should not be fed" poem,
dedicated to the plymouth Rocks" of Delta,
written and read by Nr. Alley; the intervals
between the lessons being interspersed with
music and singing. The Chautauqua Circle
at this place meets every two weeks, and it
cordially extends an invitation to all to be-
come of its members and become possessed
of that knowledge which is so beneficial
through life and which is taught and learned
in its circles

plymouth Rock.

Dedicated to the Delta, Colo, Literary and Sciel
.tific Circle, by Rev. l.. c. Alley.
On Plymouth Rock,
OF sturdy stock
The pilgrim pressed his holy knees,
And trusted God,
Tho meath the rod
Of tyranny from which he fees.
Twas here he vowed,
In actions loud,
His conscience ever to respect,
And make a name
OF lasting fame;
In right the weak protect.
That promise great,
With human fate,
Has filed his head and heart and hands,
And now we see
A nation free,
Subject to no kings commands.
Oh, Sacred Rock,
That's stood the shock
OF thousand wrathful storms,
Inspire our hearts
To act our parts,
While cheered by heavenly forms.
Thirsting for fame,
We take thy name,
And Join Chautauquas mighty host;
And strive to lead,
By word and deed,
In victorious ranks foremost.

Important to pre.Emptor..

To the Editor of THE CHIEF.
In your last issue you published an in
struction from the Hon. Commissioner of the
General Land Office to the effect that the tes-
timony of witnesses in pre-emption final
proof may be taken before any officer quail
fed to administer oaths in public land cases.
This should be fully understood. 1t is not,
as may be supposed, an alteration, or even a
modification, of the former rulings of the
Interior Department. The testimony of aoit-
nesses only are allowed by this instruction,
and this has been allowed by express rulings
for many years. But the final presumption
affidavit of the claimant must be made before
the Register and Receiver of the land Office,
or before the clerk of court of record. Prior
to 1880 this affidavit could be taken only be-
fore the Register and Receiver. BY the act
of June 8, 1880, it is provided that this affi-
davit "may be made before the clerk of the
county court, or of any court of record, and
shall have the same force and effect as if
made before the Register or Receiver"
These provisions are imperative and cannot
be changed by the Department. See Copp's
Land Laws, PIP. 90, 81 and 602.

an Innocent Granger.
He boarded the a at Twenty-third
street, says the New York Tribune.
There was nothing out of the way
about his appearance. A broad,
brimmed straw hat was n on the
back of his head; he had agood-natur-
ed face with a rather aeshy nose,
large at the base; he wore a light suit
Of clothes and carried a bamboo
switch; his first question told the
story.

This stunned him SO that he didn't

Then leaning owe and whacking a fell

n~lavful manner with his stick, he
asked:
"Where's the Five Point'sP"

the reply.

"How many officers are they in all?"
'"Three thousand" was the laconic
answer.
"Gosh!" exclaimed the seeker after
knowledge, as his wonder evaporated
in a long whistle.
Il wouldn't like to walk around

as he gazed fearfully up and down the
