Mesa County Fair.

Judging from past experience it is
none too early to inaugurate the move
ment toward the holding of county
fair or Peach day.
After settling up it's affairs last year,
the Peach Day committee had over $500
left which sum was turned over to the
Horticultural society with the recon-
mendation that it be used this year, as q
nueclus to fund to defray the expenses
Of Mesa county fair, a celebration that
should be more general in its scope and
represent more of the interests of all the
sections of the county than the Peach
day was intended to do.
This year every branch of Mesa coun-
ty's industries have an unusually bright
outlook, and with prompt sction and a
long, strong. altogether pull, there is no
reason why we should not celebrate in
manner that will not only be Of great
benefit to ourselves but indirectly to all
the western slope, as well as provide
good time for visitors and give them
even more than their moneys worth.
Time passes rapidly, and September
will soon be here. To do justice to the
event and inaugurate fair such as will
properly represent the wonderful re-
sources OF our valley. means much work
and systematic planning and start
should be made without further delay

gates. most of whom were fortunate in
securing large amount Of money. They
were millionaires, and that was their
only qualification for the position for
which they were selected. One has left
the country and gone to Paris. Whether
the others, in the face CT this derision OF
the people OF the state, and derision they
feel in their hearts, will attend he Phila-
delphia convention or not is, a question
that is somewhat uncertain. They re-
member modern history. They remember

THRILLING RUNAWAY.
Charles W. Steele Has an Exciting
Experience With a Runaway
Horse But is Not Hurt.

A runaway, which might have result
ed seriously, and 10 which G. w. Steele
had close call for his life occurred east
OF town late yesterday afternoon.
Mr.. Steele was coming into town, with
load OF fruit from his ranch four miles
east. when suddenly team OF ponies
from Scovill's livery barn, which was
running away, crashed into his wagon
from the rear.
The shock OF the collision threw Mr..
Steele over the dashboard Of his vehicle
and lodged him between his horse, which
became frightened and also started to
run and the dashboard. He was thrown
on his back with his shoulders against
the hips OF his horse and his feet against
the dashboard.
Mr.. Steele still retained the lines and
endeavored with all his strength to stop
the running animal. One of the ponies
which had run into Mr.. Steeles wagon
had broken loose and the other was run
Mig alongside ct his horse, so had Mr..
Steele fallen of, which, however, he said
he was in euch position he could not
do, it would only have been to have been
trampled upon by the horses.
When the runaway Came in sight Of
the Indian school several of the boye,
seeing that something was wrong, ran
out and stopped the horses and assisted
Mr.. Steele out of his dangerous and un-
comfortable position,
The carriage belonging to Mr.. Scovill
was badly broken, but aside from
that the only damage done was to the
fruit, with which Mr.. Steele's wagon
was loaded, and which was scattered
profusion along tho road.

The oue.tion Of Constables.

Under the law township may have

serve. With this idea in view Henry @

necessary to get out petition under thu

the lime weighed twenty and four-tenths
ounces, a gain of over one-fourth of its
original weight. The lime had fallen into

it had absorbed entirely from the air in a
