Looking for Bear.

A 4,0oO-mile journey Just for the
purpose Of making hunting trip is some
thing unusual these days, but hunting is
left over the Rio Grande this morning
for Western Colorado. after stop in
Denver to load up. They are Charles
McGruder and W. A. Cassat Of Nova
having left their home little over a
month ago. Their main idea in starting
was to come to Colorado to hunt, but
they deviated from their original plans,
saw the Atlanta exposition and went to
New Orleans, and they figure it that they
have covered little more than 1000
miles by rail since they left home.
They are fully equipped for the hunting
fields Of the northwestern part OF the
state and are anxious to meet a bear.
This morning they heard with interest
of Jim Bush's experience in Routt
county, but the tales from the English
hunting party recently in from North
paak, which were to the effect that
illert "tTt no ptlI. Has sptlcN Lsib NiS

Neither OF the young men have ever seen
bear outside the geological gardens,
but they are not at all discouraged
One OF them has talked with "old trap
pers." and while he says some of the
advice was good, he complained ut the
diversity OF opinion that seemed to pre-
vail among them as to the best methods
OF securing the game. They all told a
different story; but il they think they
can josh us they'r fooled. why, a man
in Chicago tried to scare us out by telling
us that the place we are going to is SC
full OF bear that 1t would take an army
to drive them out, and no mans life lis
safe in his hands. He said that when
the people of Colorado went up into
Routt county to hunt bear they had to
call out the state militia to protect the
hunters, and that boar tides were sc
common in Denver they were used for

for the bison, for there is no telling what
would happen if we-saw one and he

to the North Fork country. Time may
bring high line ditch along the foot Of
the Grand mesa on the Forth side, ad-
ding numerous patches and small val
leys out of the way and high up the
slope, but no such other body as this
remains. Seven thousand acres in a
body, compact. uniform, evon in surface,
beautiful and admirably located is a
contribution to North Fork of more
than ordinary interest. After it, there
will be nothing further to add to this
inestimable region but odds and ends
and ta;lings.
The promoter OF the enterprise has
built several canals, and has had suffi-
cient experience to serve as a founda-
tion on which to calculate the feasibil-
ity and probabilities in the matter.
He asks no money in advance to squan-
der on an intangible scheme. The buy
er buys the land OF the government and
contracts to pay for his water-rights
$50 an acre.. so much in advance, and
balance in obligations, all Of which, both
cash and future payments, are placed
in escrow and held by a third party till
the ditch is constructed. 1t is one OF
the very few large enterprises Of this
character on foot at the present time,
and when completed will chronicle an
other important step in the rural growth
Of the Western slope.
/ reiterate that the Smith fork enter
prise is the most important opening for
cheap land offered on the Western slope
at the present time. II the plan for wa
ter is practical and sufficient. it is the
opportunity Of life time. nay, that Of
generation. Soon railway will open
the valley to the nearest markets in the
country. and then this tract will be at
the car door, which taken with the
beauty of the spot, the climatic advan-
tages of North Fork. the location in the
valley and the growing scarcity OF land
and natural limit of area for the raising
OF fine fruits emphasizes the Importance
Of looking into the merits of the matter
at once. With a railroad up North Fork
the entire valley comes to the front Gs
the most desirable point in the state for
fruit farm.
Acre for acre. year in and year out
the North Fork is the most valuable and
profitable. Here there is no blight,
frosts are harmless, insects almost IN
known. Every year will yield its crop.
in full. OF every variety indigenous to
the valley. The past eight years have
given eight full crops Of all the fruits
grown there; nature seems 10 show no
drain or exhaustion of vitality or energy.
The trees are as fresh and full OF fruit
this year as last. This is true OF all
points in the Western slope; the truth is
the entire Western slope is wonderful.

REILLY FUNDING BILL.
The Western representatives Are
Working Against the Measure.

Washington, D. c., Jan. 3O.-Western
representative working against the
Reilly Pacific bill have practically
come to an understanding that they
will support Representative Boatners
bill for the Pacific railroad commits
sion, provided he will amend it in one
particular. The feature they oppose is
that which provides that purchasers,
in case the roads are sold under fore
closure shall assume all the debt of
the old companies and give the
United States mortgage on
the property payable in fifty years
at per cent. They say that
the western states will have to bear
the burden in high traffic rates. There
is possibility that Boatner will strike
out the section and leave the feature
open for legislation. In that event the
Californians will support the Boatner
plan, if they think there is a chance
to block the Reilly bill. 1t is under
stood they prefer that there shall be
no legislation and government fore
closure in case the roads default in the
payment Of the bonds.
