COLONEL sHEPARD's SENsATIoN.-Col-
onel E lott F. Shepard, of he Mail and En-.
press, who is supposed to know good many
inside facts about the political situation In
New York speaks out in way that sur
prises every body in that city. 1t Is we'll
that he is opposed to q union ticket this
fall. Attacking the argument Of those who
favor coalition of sl parties opposed to
Tammauy, Colonel Shepard begins by sag
lug that the Peoples Municipal League is a
Grace sffair, the money for which ts fur
nished by the ex-Mayor himself. But the
Colonel goes even further. and says that MIR.
Pstt is engineering this Grace boom in Or
der to defeat Grant for rot keeping PIat.-
Tammsny deal made in 1889. He even
charges Mr.. Pstt With promising the United
States senatorship to Mr.. Whitelaw Reid
for The help of the Tribune in an alleged Ell
tempt to delude the republicans into voting
for Grac for mayor, by telling them that
the league, will nominate ex-Secretary
Fairohild. Colonel Shepard's views of the
league are not st all favorable to the gen.
tlemep who are at the head of it. He
charges them with being the tools of Mr.
Platt's revenge, and Gays that If Grace
should be elected. the republicans would
not find any profit at All even in the fact
that Mr.. Piatt's revenge had been gratfied
by Grants defeat.

Wnv Gil Gains the Sea

The action otol in calming be sea is now

Vember l require that every boat OF 5eagolng

Ion of oil snd vessel OF approved pattern
for distributing it on the water in rough
weather"
The potency OF oil in smoothing waves
was recently explained by Lord Raylelgh
before the Royal Irs:itution 10 ucd lee
ture. This Wel-knoWn ecientist's expert
men,s demonstrate that foam or froth is
caused by Impurities In liquids. Thus, on
shaking up bottle Containlng pure water
we get no appreciable foam, but taxing
mixture of water with FIVE per cent. OF alec
hol thero Is much greater tendency to foam.
Cemp phor, glue aud geatiue dissolved 10 Wa
ter greatly increase its fcsmiDg qualities.
aud soap still more. LORD Rayleigh tidds thas
sea water foams, not on account OF i's
saline matter, but in consequence OF the
presence ofsomething extracted by wave ac
ton from sea weeds, by simply putting MS
finger 10 water, which was moving Vlgor-
ously under he influence Of few camphor

traiize the foeming action produced by the
dissolved Cempbor.
The effect OF oil on waves. as several ply
sicists have proved. is not to subdue the
huge swell, bus TO smooth and tone down its
ripples each OF which gives the wind point
d appui. thus increasing the force OF the
oreakicg waves THE film of oil," says
Lord Ray eigh. "nay be compared to an in
extensible membrane floating on the surface
of the water and hamperipg its motion"
As long as the advancing, tumultuous sea
water is pure there s nothing to oppose its
periodic contractiops and extensions, but
when Its surface is covered With the oily
membrane the most dangerous contractions
and extensions sre impossible.
The scientific demonstration OF the ssa-
queiing virtue of oil is worthy ofnote 5y all
sailors. 1t Is fortunate for them that Lord
Rayleigh has accomplished this az time
wheu ocean storms, and especially tropical
hurricanes, are likely soon to tax the ses'
mans art to the utmost in saving his craft
from destruction.-N. Y. Herald.

.'So finer country exists than Montrose
county foSfruits. In texture, flavor and free.
dom from blights, the fruit raised IN the I'm.

Montrose excels the celebrated products of
California. Apples, peaches, apricots. plums,
cherries, prunes, ounces, grapes, strawber.
ries, black berries, raspberries and every VA.
riety of small fruits yield enormously and
sell at handsome prices In the surrounding
mountain towns where fruit.growing is i'm.
possible. On the Garnet fruit farm, on Gar
net mesa, Mr.. McGrahahan owns tract OF
100 acres, 65 Of which are under cultivation,
and of which 26 acres is set to fruit, and
most of the trees are just coming into bearing.
He has about ! ,s06 peach trees, only part OF
which are bearing; 1900 apple trees, 225
cherry trees, $50 pear trees, 800 plum, 2Uo
apricot, $500 grape vines, l,sOO Of which
will produce fron Eve to six tons Of grapes
this season. He will have about 200 bushels
of peaches from ninety trees this season.
Balance will bear next year, US they begin to
bear ia this couatry three years from bud,
and often at two years. He has two and one
half acres Of raspberries, gooseberries, straw.
has never had a failure yet on any Of his
fruit that was old enough to bear, and now
has four.year. apple trees that are loaded
with fruit. The majority of his fruit trees
are from three to toEr years old. Such y
plantation is worth no less than $50, goo cash,
this section. Only six years ago this was
government land without improvements. =
From Lands "Free Lot" Adve1tising Fake.
The above is the way our high minded
neighbors take to sell worthless lots and
booms their sage brush. From the extracted
gall of "The Metropolis, &C.. &C." one might
suppose that the Garnet fruit farm was out
on Belvedere Heights or Apolinaris Flat,
right in the midst of the boomlet (now dead).
but as matter of pure. undiluted fact, the
Garnet fruit farm, owned by Mr.. G. B. Nc
Granahan is in Delta County, and only half
mile from Delta post Office. 1t is net to be
wondered at that Mr.. McGranahan's farm is
referred to as o sample, as 1t is one Of the
finest to be found in any country, but it is
not in Montrose county, but Delta, that 1t
will do as sample.
Furthermore 1t might be well to remind
our neighbors once more that the North
Fork country Is in this county, and that
m,st of the fruit used in Montrose this season
has been hauled from that region, sixty miles
distant. We believe Montrose will be quite
productive county in time, and that 1t il
capable of making better crop than the
gush, CUFF and sham of the boomer, when
her crop of fruit and grain, fast horses and
feet runners, sleek cows and pretty girls
shall equal that of Delta, then We shall be
proud to acknowledge it and give prsise
where praise is due.
