Past and Future wealth Of Colorado.
May oath, 1895.

The following essay was read at the
graduating exercises Of the Grammar
grade, in the Delta schools, on the Ord,
and is 30 practical that it is well worthy
Of wider circulation, hence it is given
place in these columns:
THE past wealth Of Colorado, as we
all know, has been in her mines but
think the future wealth will be in the
growing of fruit.
Take for instance Delta county, one
that we all know something about, and
see the number Of fruit trees being
planted this year, fifty or sixty carloads
have come into this little town OF Delta
Every acre OF ground that tho farm
crs can get water on they are planting
with fruit trees. There is land that only
five years ago they thought impossible
to irrigate, but they are planting it with
fruit trees. with the intention OF getting
water on them by means OF the force
pump or irrigation wheel. They are not
only doing this in Delta county, but in
other counties.
A person does not know how many
trees are being planted until he takes a
ride in the county, he will be surprised
at seeing the number Of trees. He will
see trees growing where he thought it
was fit only for prairie dogs.
Delta county is one of the leading
counties for the growing OF fruit, the
North Fork leading the county.
There has been between five and six
Thousand acres OF trees planted this year
in Delta county, containing five or six
hundred thousand trees.
The past wealth OF Colorado has been
in mining principally silver mining
Silver was first discovered in the Greg
ory district on the Blue, near the head.
waters OF the Platte.
The beginning OF great improvements
commenced in the autumn Of 1865. In
September OF the previous year Gov.
Steele and others discovered n vein Of
ore in the Mcclellan mountains. As
these discoveries multiplied they started
the first stamp mill named the George
Smelling Co. in 1867.
Lake county produces the greatest
quantity Of silver, followed by Pitkin,
Clear Creek, Boulder. Summit, Gunni-
son, Gilpin, and number Of others.
The principal deposits are found be-
tween beds of porpiiyry and limestone.
During tho month OF January 1879
the yield Of the mines of Lake county
aggregated 1901 ,494.79, On the 18th OF
January an effort was made to see how
much silver could be taken out Of q
mine in twenty -fOur hours; the result
was ninety Ave tons, valued at sl1sOOO.

GRAND JUNCTION is nothing il not en-
terprising, and has already appointed
committees and commenced preparing
for the 4th of next September in earnest.
The fruit growers OF Delta county
should at once apply for and secure
sufficient space in the pavilion in
which to make an exhibit that will 80
far discount Mesa county's fruit as to
attract attention to this county's mag
nificent fruit lands. Our people could
thus gain every advantage in the way of
advertising secured by Mesa county

KINDEL's diagrams on the question OF
freight rates, as published in the Sun
day Republican, illustrate most forcibly
the discrimination practiced by the rail
roads against Denver, showing that on
certain classes the freight from Chicago
to San Francisco is 81 90 per 100 pounds,
while from Denver it is $500. This dis
crimination ought to be stopped, and
when it is the discrimination against
other Colorado towns in favor Of Denver
will be stopped along with it.

DELTA has not sufficient hotel facili-
ties to care for Peach Day crowd, but
arrangements should be made SO that
all visitors to Grand junction on that
occasion could have the privilege of a
stop-over here both ways, also to have
tickets placed on sale at least three days
before Peach day. 30 that there might be
ample opportunity for stops either going
or returning. Then it would be an easy
matter for Delta to arrange for carriages
to convey visitors out among the Or
.chards free Of expense. II this is done.
our real estate men could well afford to
arrange for some one to meet each train
at Montroee and Grand Junction during
that time and inform all the passengers
OF the chance offered to see Delta and
her orchards. Proper advertising mat
ter showing our resources in the way OF
fruit growing should bc prepared and

Crowded to OyerfIowins.

The close of Prof. Harris second year
of successful supervision as principal of
the Delta schools was marked by more
than unusually interesting exercises, and
reflects great credit both upon himself
and his able assistants, Miss Myers, A.
A. Jaques, Mrs. B. c. Bowers, Miss May
Ingersoll and Mrs. A. d. Brown.
The attendance during the past year
has been large and the work OF the
pupils most excellent, as was shown by
the closing exercises. That the people
of Delta appreciate this work was am
ply shown by the fuct that the assembly
room in the school house, with the larg.
est seating capacity in Delta, would not
accommodate half those who sought ad-
mission either night. every seat being
occupied long before the hour announc.
ed for the exercises to begin, and stand
