r,r.. eo..,ne, Of Colorado o..s.

Robert w. Steele, first pro
visional governor OF the Territory
Of Jefferson, later the Territory Of
Colorado and finally the state OF
Colorado, died at his late home,
r78 North Weber street, Den
yer, Wednesday morning The
deceased was 81 years OF age, and
death resulted from an attack of
grip and the weakness incident to
such advanced years. He was
elected to the territorial Legislature
Of 1858 90. On March IS, 1859,
he started for the Pixies Peak gold
region. reaching Denver, May 4th
October 1859. a conventio n
was held in Denver to establish a
provisional government. AS one
Of the results of that convention
K. w. Steele was nominated and
later duly elected governor of the
territory Of Jefferson. He was in
augurated the following November
and remained in Office until after
the organization of the territory OF
Colorado by an act of congress.
He surrendered the executive au-
thority to Governor Gilpin in
June. 1861. His hrst message
was delivered to the provisional
Legislature November ?. 1859.
He was the first great historic
figure in the history of Colorado,
chief Of the first local government
established in the Rocky mountain
region, years before the United
States claimed jurisdiction over IL;
at = time when Indian titles COW
cred the land; when Kansss pro.
claimed her right to control and
govern our meager population;
whes society was in a state Of
chaos, needing the influence Of .
strong centralized power, when
pistol and knife, brute force and
mob-law ruled in the absence Of
statutes. The better citizens real
izing the desirability of some sort
Of lawful order, organized the pro-
visional COVE rnment and placed
him as its head. Though crude,
and though its authority did mot
extend far beyond Denver. it was
. power for good.

The West Jersey and Seashore Railroad
Company is making decided changes in
Woodbury. by the Introduction Of the in
terlocking system, which is expected will
be IN operation by the first OF January.
The plans Tor the change have been under
consideration for some time, and are be-
ing made with the view Of minimizing
the danger Of accidents, avoiding copfus-
ion at the station and to facilitate travel.
1t is the purpose with the completion o.
the Improvement to have all north bound
trains arrive at the station OH the north
bound track, thus doing away with any
unnecessary delay in traffic. Cross-oyers
have been put in in the lower end oil the
yard, so that arriving trains on theSalem
and Swedesboro road and PENIS Grove
branch can be sent to the station on the
north bound track. Distant signals are
set on the main tracks, and tile entire
system will be operated from the new
tower house at German street, in which
thirtv-six levers will be used, and the
movement Of all trains arriving and de-
parting will he controlled from the new
tower house, the present IN at Cooper
street to be done away with when the
new system is put into operation.

Gentlemen: | received your communication asking for
my opinion of your fertilizers. l would say that l used
your An Crop Nurture on early White Potatoes at the rate of
800 pounds per acre. 1t gave me satisfactory results. At
the same time / used two other brands of fertilizers, both
being special potato manures, at the same rate per acre, and
on the same kind of soil side by side with your Aa-Crop
Mixture. One of the other brands fell short one-third, the
other was almost worthless. Each Of the other fertilizers
were higher in price than yours. 1 shall want more next
spring. Used 500 pounds per acre, ut l think if 1000
pounds were used it would pay. Yours truly,
