A number of Boulder people availed
themselves of the excursion over the
Gulf and South Park lines Yesterday to
Kenosha summit. The excursion was
one of the summer series which the Gulf
road is running SO successfully over its
scenic branches and which are enjoyed
alike by the experienced tourist and the
citizens in search of days recreation.
AS practical instruction in the beauties
of our state, nothing could be more ap-
propriate and the road is receiving
enconiums of praises for thus enabling
everyone TO view the state at nominal
cost. The excursion yesterday was an
exceptionally interesting one and the
tourists, representing all Northern Colo
rado, were we'll pleased with the trip.
The run was well conducted, and Travel
ing Passenger Agent Shaw, who was in
charge of the train saw that everyone
was we'll looked out for.

Considerable excitement was created
this afternoon by the appearance of J. J.
Dubi's horse, with broken harness and
with legs cut and bleeding. 1t was
known that Dubi and Doc. Sherman had
started for Jimtown at one o'clock and it
was thought that some accident had oc-
Cured, and rider was Immediately des
patched toward Jimtown to investigate.
A mile or so from town, the rider met
Dub riding in on a freight wagon, and
it was learned that no serious harm had
come to the occupants of the buggy. 1t
seems that Sherman and Dubi got out
to place fly net on the horse and had
partly embarrassed, when the horse be.
came frightened and soon became un-
controllable. He dashed away from the
men, breaking the shafts of the buggy
and started for town. On the way he
evidently encountered some barb wire
fences as he was terribly cut up about
the legs. The men sustained no injuries
whatever.

BuDuC WORK.
The Senate has passed o bill to cut in
half the fees now allowed by law for
legal printing. Though it will be con-
sidered much too sweeping q reduction
by the reform editors Of the State, we
believe there will be no kick coming IL
even less reduction is made all along
the line. For instance, District Judges
work about half, or little more, Of time,
and receive $500 per snnum. Cut them
$500, why notP The stenographeE gets
sS per day; why not cut in two, or at
least let the County Commissioners have
a whack at itP
Why not reduce the Clerk of the
Supreme court TO $4,000 or $500 instead
Of giving him $500 as proposedP Why
not reduce the $2,5OO State officers and
Railroad Commissioners to $1,000, and
reduce the number Of clerks and their
salaries when il can be done without
detriment TO the Slater There is hardly
q Stats Office outside OF Governor,
Senator and Representative, which
could not be reduced as suggested with
less injustice than that 80 per cent. news
paper cut. But that is what the legisla-
tors are there for-to reduce, retreDch,
restrain and compel; to lop off sineCures
and abolish useless offices; and there
will be no kick we believe from the news
papers provided it is done all along the
line.
But with $500 District Judges, S6
Stenographers, $500 Clerk Of the Su-
preme court, $500 Railroad Commis-
siOners and State officials, Sl,500 to-
$1,000 clerks and with a cut OF 10 per
