mon school education as can be found
anywhere in the country. The standard
in all the grades Ii not excelled and

who have special adaptability for the

Rocky Ford last week was the announce
ment that Maxwell Bros. were going out
OF business. Many people are skeptical
in regard to a firm having such large
and well established trade abandoning
the mercantile field. But it looks as If
they were in earnest. The Maxwell
Bros have now been in the dry goods
business for eighteen years and feel like
they have earned and deserve rest and
a vacation. Maxwell Bios. store has
been valuable factor in the upblilding
OF Rocky Ford's splendid trade and they
will be greatly missed.
We have none but the most friendly
feelings for our neighbors at the county

there will be blood on the moon. This
fashion of the La Junta boys coming up
to Rocky Ford on Sundays and taking
from our own boys their sweetest and
best girls is getting TO be serious mat
ter. The situation is such that arbitra-
tion is not to be thought of-the practice,
however pleasant to the youth of the
county seat. must be stopped.
The Democratic primaries were held
in Rocky Ford Saturday last. Early in

four two-gallon demijohns. Our readers
will please not confuse these two facts
in their minds as Mr.. Cressy is Repub
hcan from Wayback and tho demijohns
were for artesian water from the Garden
Place well. g. X. Gilbert, of the q. S.

of the water for analysis by the govern
ment chemists. The water was forward
ed on Saturday and we shall soon have
a complete analysis of our subterranean

New York Racing Mon WIN Ask the
Legislature to Define tho
Question.

Special TO THE HERALD,
NEW YORK. Jan. 20.-Racing men
bave agreed upon a measure to present
to the legislature. and the moderation
oftheir requests will probably astonlsh
the gentlemen at Albany. There is 60
be no law breaking, no attempt to "beat
the law" or "evsde the law" aud there
10 to be no revival of the old method of
bookmsking.
The legislature will simply be asked
to define sweepstakes" and to draw
distinction between betting and
gambling. II Keens and Lorillard bet
on the respective merits OF their horses,
can there be punishment for gambling?
Some of the best lawyers in the state
have carefully studied the question and
ssy there is no law against betting.
They said that there is broad legal
bling, and that while the courts will not
enforce the collection OF bet there is
no punis hment for the act itself.
Judge Gaynor in the Dryer case last
spring decided that q sweepstakes was
not lottery, and q sweepstakes cannot
be called gambling with any degree Of
fairness, because it is not q mere
chance which decides the winner but
qualities Of speed, stamina, care in
handling aud many other things not in
the leaet depending upon chance.
When the proposed bill is introduced
at Albany the whole racing question
will be intelligently presented, and the
importance Of the thoroughbred aside
from the amusement as ''spor" it fur
nishes will be shown.
