Cecil Brown, who is interested
with the promoters OF the First
National Bank of Hawaii who
were first in the field with an ap-
plication for a charter, was asked
about the Coast news on the sub
ject.
Mr.. Brown had not seen the
newspaper report, but said, en-
phatically:
mo national bank can be start

GERMAN LLOYD OUTLET.

francisco or Tacoma.
San francisco, March l7.-Word
has been received here fiom Der.
lin that DIR. Wiegand, Managing
Director of the North German
Lloyd. Steamship Company, will
visit San Francisco late next
month or early in May. DR..
Wiegand was in this city last Oct
ober. He also visited Tacoma and
Seattle and then went to Yokoha
ma en- route home. While here
he stated to several prominent
citizens that his company was de-
sirous of putting on a line OF
steamers across the Pacific ocean
from Hongkong aud Yokohama to
either San Francisco or Tacoma,
and that he fully intended to do
80 in the near future.
The company is now building
eleven new steamers and it is
thought that at least three of them
are intended for the new service to
and from this coast.
While the Santa Fe people are
exceedingly reticent on the subject,
it is known that the North Germ
an Lloyd people want that road as
an overland connection at this
point and it is the opinion of rail
road people here that DIR. Wieg-
land will sooner or later make
some deal with Messrs. Ripley and
Walker of the Santa Fe. On the
other hand, some people think DR..
Wiegland may select Tacoma in
place of this city. Tacoma is the
western terminus of the Northern
Pacific. German capitalists are
heavily interested in that road and
many OF them are also financially
connected with DR.. Wiegland's
company.

Yes ? The official organ has
neither the breadth, depth or hon.
esty to Ir lat public,ques'ions from
. party standpoint. The official
circle that uarps the utterapces of
the organ never could rise to the
dignity of a party, hence the organ
treats public questions from the
standpoint that speaks for waning
official power, absolute lack of pop.
ular f,vcr and souted and embit-
tered old age.
Its (Advertiser) purpose is to
give its readers the Truth, difficult
40 it is to obtain i'll provided the
public have the right to ask for it
Advertise.
Thus the official organ asserts
that its intentions are, but the
character of what it has published
as truth relating to the Cabinet
crisis calls pointedly TO mind that
shell is paved with good inten-
lions. The Advertiser published
the truth once when it printed the
interview clipped from the seven
ing journal"
The BULLETIN joins the official
organ in requesting that public
explanation be made of the Cab
met crisis giving all the details.
The official organs prevarications
about Mr.. Dole's appointive power
have already been proven. Let
the good work 60 on. Thus will
the strength of the Triple ALI

in the counties of Fremont, Pueblo,
Otero, Bent and Prowers, and
Otero county is the very center
and citadel of this garden spot of
Colorado. La Junta, the county
seat, is located ISI miles south
east of Denver, 50 miles east of
Pueblo, 81 miles from Trinidad
and I25 miles west of the Kansas
state line. Otero county is sixty
miles in length north and south
and thirty-six miles wide, and COM
prises total area of 2os2 square
miles, or 1873, 28o acres of land.
The soil is a rich sandy loan, and
its scope of fertility is limited only
to the extent that it is possible for
the water of the river to reach it
through our extensive irrigation
systems.
The superior advantages of ir-
rigation are manifold. The hus-
bandman can raise his crop each
year without failure as cheaply and
more abundantly than in any
humid climate. His land, unlike
the soil of older states, needs as
yet, but little fertilization where he
observes system of rotation in
planting his crops, strongly miner
allied from the disintegrating rocks
OF the mountains and supplemented
by the animal and vegetable decay,
as it is deposited in sediment from
the irrigating bitches, it has a
perpetual replenishing Of fertility.
The farmer has entire control of
his crops after termination where
the water is ample and intelligently
applied, no crop is burnt up by
continued drought and none de-
stroyed by excessive moisture.
BY the laws of the state the first
ditch constructed has a priority
right to the water appropriated and
no canal tapping the stream nearer
its source can divert the water of
the other ditch.
The first ditch to appropriate
water from any natural stream, the
owners OF said ditch having filed a
statement OF this fact with the
county clerk, is entitled, whenever
there is any scarcity of water in
that stream, to the first right of
the water, and in succession, as
they follow, other bitches are en-
titled to their proportionate sup
ply. These are called priorities.
Water rentals range from 81. SO to
So. SO per inch per season. Fifty
statutory inches are considered
sufficient to irrigate SO acres OF

The Bible school, while ham

orERo COUNTY.
The agricultural portion of the
Arkansas Valley comprises a beau

two hundred miles in length and as
wide in its scope of fertility as it
is possible to extend the water of
the river through the great irriga-
ton system which has been con-
structed during the past ten years.
Here is one of the most resource
full agricultural regions in the
world. In its abundance and
popularity of production suggest.
ing to the mind comparison with
the valley of the Nile, with all its
marvels of yielding soil. Produc-
ing all manner of crops and en-
bracing within its drainage area
unsurpassed stock ranges and
feeding grounds and containing
partially developed stock, farming,
gardening, fruit and melon re-
sources, it is destined to become
the most fruitful section OF the
state.

Ladies' Aid Society. The worL
during the past year has been very
satisfactory, and there has been a
steady growth in membership and
influence throughout the year. The
church has raised and expended
for all purposes during the past
twelve months 81, 700. During the
past year additional chairs have
been placed in the church, making
the present seating capacity $50.
A new organ, also, has been placed
in the church. The young peoples
societies and Sundayschool are
directed by an efficient corps of Of
ficers and teachers. Mr.. A. c.
Draper is the superintendent OF
the Sunday-school, and Miss
Vivian Birely is president of the
Epworth League. The Metho-
dist people, in addition to their
church building, own neat par
sonage on San Juan avenue.
BAPTIST The First Baptist
church was organized November
II, 1887, with is charter members,
several of whom are still resident
members and active in the work
There have been received during
the ten years of the church's his
tory nearly 900 members, but the
tiuctuating character OF western
lite has taken many of these to
other towns, the present total
membership being TT. The
church has been under the care of
three pastors, the present one, F.
w. Hart, has been in charge of
the flock for nearly five years. The
house of worship belonging to the
church is neat frame structure
with seating capacity OF 200.
For the first seven years the sup
port of the church was derived in
part from the American Baptist
Home Mission Society and the
Colorado Baptist State Conven-
ton, but for the past three years
the church has been self-sustaining
and has given generously to mis-
sion work elsewhere. A few years
ago the church entered upon the
plan of securing all needed funds
purely from the freewill offerings of
the people. Modern devices for
raising money have been laid aside
| and all the socials OF the church
have been given without charge
for admission or refreshments.
The effects of this plan have been
salutary. The spirit of real be-
nevolence has increased, the con-
tributions to missions and the
poor having amounted to $500 in
a single year. The past year has
been one Of encouraging growth in
the Spiritual life of the church.
The prayer-meetings have been
we'll attended and deeply spiritual.
Good work is being done in the
Sunday y-school under the direction
of A. w. English, the superin-
tendent. During the year 1898
thirty-six new members were re-
ceived into the church; nineteen
OF them by baptism. Last April
several of the members became in
terested in Mr.. and Mrs. Cameron,
missionaries to China, and, to-
gether with members OF church
in Denver, have been maintaining
their entire support. The Aid So
ciety and Mission Circle are flour
ishing, the interest in both being
on the increase. The young people
are sustaining a Y.P. SEE, with
]. w. Cusick as president. Har-
mony prevails in the church, and
both pastor and people are hope
full for the future.
CHURCH OF CHRIST - The past
year has been the most successful
year in the history Of the church.
While the church is only a few
(six) years of age, yet it has no,
during that time made any rapid
strides until the last year. This

of life as possible, have planted

z
a great variety of fruit, consisting
of apples, pears, peaches, prunes,
plums, cherries, grapes, etc. My
pear orchard, in which there are
more than 100 trees, standard and
dwarf, is now a most beautiful
sight, being loaded with Bartlett,
Sheldon, Kieffer, Seckel, Flemish
Beauty and other varieties. My
prune orchard, numbering about
IS trees, German and French, be-
sides several varieties of plums,
has been bearing now for three
years, every tree in the whole
number being loaded with the
finest prunes and plums ever saw.
My peach trees, of which there are
about 100, have been bearing now
for three years in succession. Of
the peaches alone, sold more than
5000 worth the past season, be-
sides supplying my family fresh
and canned peaches for the entire
year. There are trees in this or
chard from which more than SI2
were realized from single tree. A
vineyard OF about 400 vines has
been loaded with grapes for the
past three years. The apple or
chard is just coming into bearing,
and Of the IT'S trees planted, fully
$50 are full of fruit at the present
time. Cherry trees, set out in
1897, have fruited during the year
1893, and others set out six years
ago have been loaded with fruit
every year for the past four years. !"
LAjuMTA WATER WORKS.
La Junta has as fine system OF
water works as any city IN the state
OF its size. The plant is owned
and operated by the city, and is
practical demonstration of the
feasibility OF municipal ownership
OF public utilities. The plant was
purchased from the Santa Fe rail
road company on September l9,
1892, for S32, 900. AT the time OF
purchase there were but three
miles of water mains, which have
since been extended until at the
present time there are a total of
nearly eight miles.
The pump house is located on
the banks of the Arkansas river,
and is supplied with two pumps
a Knowles compound with ca
pacity of 1000 gallons per minute,
and Smith & Vail, which is held
in reserve in case OF break down.
At the present time there are 47o
hydrants and ABS consumers.
The total revenue derived last
year from consumers was $7,754.-
IS, and the cost of operation, in
Guiding interest on bonds, was
So, 22o, leaving a net revenue OF
sI,534.7s. improvements are
being made each year and the
mains extended. The total ex-
tension last year was nearly one
mile at a cost of 81 900. 90.
SCHOOLS on ACCREDITED LIST.
Graduates OF the La Junta High
School may enter the University
of Colorado without taking a pre-
lininary examination. This is the
best evidence of the grade work
and efficiency of our public schools.
Following is letter from James
Baker, president of the University
of Colorado, dated April Io, 1898,
notifying the directors that the La
Junta High School had been placed
on the accredited list:
"To the Board Of Directors, La
Junta, Colo; Gentlemen-I am
glad to announce that at a recent
meeting of the college faculty in
the University of Colorado your
high school was placed on the ac-
credited list for the Latin Scientific
course. Our representatives, who
have visited your high school re-
Gently, speak highly of its grades
