A MASS meeting OF the citizens of Prov
ers, Bent and Otero counties will be held
at Rocky Ford on Saturday, January 6,
1894. The object of this meeting is to
get an expression of the wishes Of the
people on the Twin Lakes Reservoir
scheme, so that our senator and repre-
sentatives can work in harmony and in
teligently on any Legislation on that sub
ject that may be proposed during the
coming session.
The above is the substance of a call re-
Gently published by committee deeply
interested in the welfare Of the Arkansas
valley. The meeting should be largely
attended notwithstanding the fact that
the length Of the approaching session is
decidedly uncertain. However the great
interests at stake demand that the matter
have immediate and earnest considera-
ton and energetic action.

An Important Announcement.

The most successful newspaper is
doubtless one which enforces payment in
advance. But this is not wholly practic-
ticable in an agricultural region like the
Rocky Ford country. Hence we do not
insist on having all subscriptions 80 paid,
but have decided to draw the line at the
county line, i. q. send no papers outside
Otero county unless paid for in advance.
This paragraph is TO give due notice to
our nonresident subscribers that pay
ment must be made il they wish to con
tinue to receive the paper. And our resi-
dent subscribers are reminded that JUS
tice to ourselves requires MS to make rea-
sonably close collections from them. The
subscription receipts are a large proper
ton Of the income Of the Office and when
they are shut of there's trouble. "a
word to the wise"

SENATOR SwINK has, during the past
few days, been industriously circulating
among his constituents in other counties
to ascertain the feeling in regard to the
extra session The result of careful
search for the facts develops a practical
unanimous belief that an extra session
would be a great mistake. This being
Mr.. Swink's personal views, and having
the endorsement of his constituegts, he
will be one of the most active and ener-
getic among the senators in the effort to
secure an immediate adjournment.

II. F. Hagen says that the bee

He is now negotiating for a car
load of bees. This, together with
the fact that there promises to be
new accessions to our apiarists
next year, shows that the valley
has decided advantage for the
groth of bees and the production
of honey,

IY eastern people and papers have the
impression that Colorado is one OF the
most badly depressed states OF the Union,
they will have cause to revise their opin-
ions when they read the New Years edi-
tions OF the Denver Sun, News, Times
and Republican. The statistics given
will convince our cousins residing nearer
sunrise that the Centennial state is as
we'll prepared to weather the storm as
the older sections OF the Union.

AT this writing it can not be predicted
what the approaching extra session will
do. The foreign silver dollar scheme
Will have the support Of no one. The is
suance Of certificates to build the State
Canals will be found, on examination, to
be an unconstitutional and wholly i'm
practicable measure With these leading
schemes of proposed relief conceded to be
Of execution, it will be diff
cult to find excuse for the long continu-
ance Of the special session. The call will
probably result in one OF two things: An
immediate adjournment, which is proba-
ble, or prolonged wrangling session,
with suspicion of jobbery, and one which
will be q reproach to the state.

The readers of this paper will be pleased
to learn that there is at least one dreaded
disease that science has been able to cure
in all its stages, and that is Catarrh.
Halls Catarrh Cure is the only positive
cure known to the medical fraternity.
Catarrh being constitutional disease,
requires a constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure is taken internally,
acting directly on the blood and mucous
ing the foundation of the disease, and
giving the patient strength by building
up the constitution and assisting nature
in doing its work. The proprietors have
so much faith in its curative powers,
that they offer One Hundred Dollars for
any case that it fails to cure. Send for
list of testimonials.
