HOT WATER WELLS.
In some Cases Temperature Rises
Twenty Degrees in n single MIGHT
Cause Of the Phonomenon. I.

The wells in parts of Arizona have re-
Gently become producers of hot water,
and apprehension is felt by many OF the
residents of the region affected that
they are about to become participants
in q grand volcanic drama. In some OF
the wells the temperature Of the well
water rose 20 degrees in single night.
In q few the phenomenon disappeared
soon after its appearance. In major
ity of the cases, however, the wells fair
ly steam from their newly-acquired
heat. The first known of this curious
state of affairs was n report that the
wells ut Mnricopn, on the Southern Pa
cific railroad, 80 miles south of Phoenix,
had suddenly become hot, says the
Omaha Bee. i.
It was four days thereafter that the
phenomenon first was noticed n dozen
miles west of that city. A test ut one
well showed temperature of nearly
100 degrees. No difference is noted in
wells in the immediate vicinity OF
Phoenix.

Too Jealous for La Junta's
"Rights."

The In Junta Democrat gives
half Il column to "a Kick for our
Rights" 1t complains that the
Western Poultry d Game Co.
makes Rocky Ford prominent on
their Autographed posters, and
uses the names of Lamar, Las
Animas, Ordwny and Holly but
ignores In Junta. 1t is charged
that this insult to La Junta was
devised by some real estate boost
er. A. G. Conner makes reply
from which we make the follow
ing extracts:
"The metropolis has the round
house. county seat, court house,
county Jail and poor farm, water,
and n poor ditch. Rocky Ford
has the Melongrowers' association
and II side track, and now the
Democrat wishes to swallow up
the Melongrowers' association, so
we will have our side track left.
But, Mr.. Editor, let me suggest
TINT the proper way to accomplish
what you seem to want, is not to
withdraw from the association,
but to get all your people to Join
the Rocky Ford association and
come up to the annual meeting
and by majority vote change the
title Of the Melongrowers' associa-
ton from the Rocky Ford to the
La Junta Melongrowers' associa-
ton, and then as Spain has said
to America, you can blockade nll
our ports but you cannot blockade
our honor. Now Mr.. Editor, we
permitted your people to come in
with us, paid express on most OF
your goods last season, shipped
ours by freight, and gave you as
much per crate rs we got, and we
thought the favors had been CIV
en- instead of received. Let us
have peace and prosperity will
surely follow"
La Junta should be glad that
the farmers in her vicinity have
the privilege of selling their
melons under the name and rep
utation which has been built up
by the farmers adjacent to Rocky
Ford. Our people have made the
name and secured the market and
it is decidedly ungrateful to COM
plain because Mr.. Wetzel has
given deserved prominence tc
Rocky Ford.

Denver Market All Right.

H. Woods, who handles Rocky
Ford melons for Denver. writes as
follows:
Business still holds out to be
good; selling lots of Rocky Fords,
and am cleaning up every day, SO
as 10 keep the goods always fresh.
I am being supplied with better
goods than the boycotters on Mar
Eet Street can get, 30 that gives
me the best of them. They are
cutting prices all the time, but I
am keeping the trade filled up. I
am sure now that I will send more
money to Rocky Ford this year for
cantaloupes and melons than ever
went to that place from Denver,
besides holding all the trade, and
competing against Market Street
and prices"

For some reason which we cannot un.
