Normal Institute.

According to previous arrangements, the
Executive Committee of the 5th Normal
District met in Montrose, July IL. A chair
man and secretary being elected, n general
discsssiou followed, after which it was agreed
to hold an Institute, beginning Nov. 10 and
lasting to Nov -. A motion to locate the
institute at Montrose, was lost. A motion to
locate il at Delta, carried.
Al this point the Supt. of Pub. Inst, l.. S.
Cornell, Informed the Committee thai the
last Legislature failed to make the necessary
appropriation for holding Normal District
institutes. and that we were throwa upon
our own REQUIRES for this work. This being
the case se agreed not to ask the counties
for the help the las provides for them to give
but too rely solely upon free donations. Mont
rose then offered more liberal inducements
than We could possibly expect from Delta,
and owing to our financial embarrassment
the location Of the Institute was recon,idered.
Sup,. Stone, of Grand Junction, then r4-vcd
to hold the Institute at Nontrose and Of
course vas voted for by Sup;. Tohin, OF Mont
rose, which changed the location to that
place.
Since viewing the financial situation | am
convinced that the committee did the best
thing for the success of the institute. Mont
rose will give better satisfaction to Gunnison,
ouray, Hiusdalc and San Miguel counties, it
being more centrally located. These conn
ties will give US a larger attendance hence
will attribute more and do the creates, good
to the District. I believe the people of Mesa
and Delta counties will sec this a. / do, and
will join heart and hand with us to make
this institute 4 grand success. II will he the
first Normal District Institute ever held ives,
Of the Rockies Hence we ought to feel
proud Of this and realize that its success de
pcnds on the interes, taken. The committee
will procure the bes, Normal instructors to
be had and no pains will be spared on its
part to make the Institute good one.
Board will cost but little more, if any.
than il costs at home.
The committee meets Aug. 21th, IN Delta,
to make 6ual arrangements which will APP
pear in the INpRPsSDKNT.
ANY information desired will be cheerfally
given by either Of the committeeman.

A Letter from Monte Vista

ED. INDEPENDENT: was glad to notice
in one OF your recent issues thst Delta county
is to have a fair this fall. ! believe tina. a
fair properly conducted, giving more atten-
tion To grains, fruits, vegetables and manu-
featuring interests, than horse racing, will do
much to sonnd abroad the praises Of our
beautiful valley and its Italian climate. Since
coming to the San Luis valley and spending
nearly three months here. have learned to
appreciate our grand and beautiful valley as
never before and believe if the people would
put forth ti,he of the effort that this valley
is doing to sound abroad the praises of Delta
county, we might, and honestly TOO, induce
many from the east to locate among us and
thus have onr country fill up with good
class of citizens from the blizzard stricken
states in the east. This is beautiful valley
and has an abundance of good water, plenty
of hay and grazing lands, but from personal
observation, / don't think it is equal to Delta
county for small grain and as for corn, sugar
cane, etc, they can scarcely get any to ma
ture. AS for fruit that is just about out of
the question. notwithstanding all this the
valley is fast settling up with a fine class Of
citizens from Kansas and other states border
ing us. have thought why is it that people
are fiocling here so rapidly? and from my
personal observation am convinced that it
is caused by the efforts of the people of the
valley. The newspapers are constantly
sounding the praises of the valley and the
citizens are sending large numbers to their
friends east inviting them to come and share
these things with them. Why is it that our
people are not doing the same: We have
much better climate, can beat this valley in
farming and honestly think we have the
finest fruit valley in the State. We are pro-
tected in measure from the terrible dust
storms which visit other portions of the
State. Our nights are cool and refreshing.
Almost every kind of grains, fruits and veg
etables can be raised in abundance. Then
why not put forth a reasonable effort TO in
duce people to locate among US. Tell them
of our fine lands bordering our beautiful
streams and thus direct some Of the tide Of
immigration to our valley. People gener-
ally go where they are invited, why not in
vite them to share the good things surround
ing Delta?
