Oil Notes.

The Florence DeBeque Oil com
pany, composed principally of
Cripple Creek men, has leased
grounds here and at DeBeque and
is getting ready to work.
Its Florence properties consists
of forty acres on either side of the
Arkansas river, near oil producing
wells owned by the Florence Oil
and United Oil companies, two of
which are on the north side of the
river. 1t is believed that an oil
zone extends from these wells
northwest and southeast to one of
the Florence Oil company's wells
east of town
If this be the case, this zone
passes through the Florence De
Beque Oil company's ground, and
it looks reasonable that oil will be
opened by it.
E. j. Amann, secretary of the
Colum bia Crude Oil company, one
of the stockholders of the new
concern, was here yesterday nego-
tiating for the lum Der for the
derrick and the company expects
to be in operation at the end of

DEMOCRATIC ENTHUsIAeM
GROWING.

Democratic enthusiasm is growing
in Teller county. Whether 1t is from
the effects of the good work Of Sena-
tor T. M. Patterson last week or not
we do not know, but we do know that
the apathy that existed here few
weeks ago has been dispelled and that
to-day there Is every Indication of en-
thusiastic work in both ends of this
district being done for the Democratic
ticket. The laboring men are awake
to the danger of encouraging too many
movements. They realize that this
fall at least they must expect their re-
lief and support from the Democratic
ticket and they are fiocking to its sup
port in one solid line of march.
The Republicans have put an end to
their claims of carrying this county as
they freely expressed 1t few weeks
ago. The Democrats are awake to the
necessity Of a large majority in Teller
county in order to carry through the
legislative ticket, ut least that part
Of 1t that is Joined to Ell Paso county.
and they are moving every source Of
strength 10 accomplish that result.

CUBAN RECIPROCITY.

By the way, why should farmer en-
gagged in raising sugar beets give
vote to the Republican ticket? That
party's caucua is for Cuban reciproci-
ty and Cuban reciprocity means a
present reduction of twenty to forty
per cent. on the tariff on the raw su-
gar of that country. All that the
American farmer gets under q protec-
tive tariff system is in the protection
on his sugar beets. There is not an
other item of benefit to him under Re-
publican laws and now, under Roose-
velt's leadership, they would take
away that prop. while leaving protec-
ton to the prosperous steel and iron
and other great trusts of the country.
Long since they ceased to talk Of these
as infant industries" whereas the
beet sugar industry. as yet producing
but one-tenth of the sugar Americans
consumes, certainly comes within that
category. Why shouldn't our Republic
can friends be consistent and continue
protection to our infant industries
since they insists upon maintaining 1t
on products of industries grown gray
and hoary with passing years?-Boul-
der Camera.
The Meeker herald., 1902-10-25

The laboring men know that they
must show at least their sincerity in
their own cause by saving the labor
ing men on the Democratic ticket and
they now refuse to be misled by any
side issue that the Republicans have
at least encouraged In order to divide
their strength. They realize that to
allow the representative part of the
Democratic ticket to be defeated that
It would prove that they were not sim
cere in their own cause, especially
since the Democratic convention al
lowed their own members to select the
legislative nominees of the Demo-
cratic ticket. They fully realize their
obligation to the entire Democratic
ticket on account of its liberality with
them in giving them just what they
asked for and they are going to prove
their appreciation by giving not only
the legislative end Of 1t their unquali.
fed support. but the entire ticket
With these conditions existing. there
is little danger but that the entire
Democratic ticket will roll up its old
time majority in Teller county this
fall. With this assurance, Democrats
have been encouraged to go to work
and with every day the enthusiasm
grows Ereater.-victor Record.

THE SAMOAN CLAIMS.

II Is difficult to understand the prln-
ciple upon which King oscar as arbi-
traitor in the Samoan damage claims
finds that the powers that landed troops
in the Islands for the protection OF the
rcsidents against the rebels. are liable
to pay for the damage inflicted the
fact is that II the troops had not
been landed. much greater destruc-
ton would have been wrought. To hold
the powers liable for the damage done
while endeayorIng to save life and prop
crty. would seem analogous to holding
the nremen responsible for the damage
done to n building by fire Mndled by
Incendlaries. because they cndeayored
10 nut out the flames, and while so do
ing. did some damage. In the case OF
China. another and totally different
principle obtained. China was assessed
the damages. and not the powers that
landed troops to put down a rebellion.
II the same principle were applied In
the case OF Samoa, the Samoans would
have to pay the luxury of the rebellion.
Iiut whatever motive actuated the
Swedish king in the decision that 1t Is
said he is about to give 1t Is safe TO say
that he Is not, personally or politically
prejudIced against the United States
lie has on so many occasions proved
his warm regard for our representa-
tiyes In Stockholm. and his admiration
OF American institutions, Whatever
may have been the reasons for the fore
Swallowed decision, prejudice against
this country cannot for one moment be
admitted.
The opinion expressed in Washington
Is perfectly correct. The country cam
not be held liable for damages when
troops are landed in foreign parts for
the purpose Of protecting American in
terests. The decision can therefore not
be accepted as a precedent, even II the
money Is paid. The case illustrates the
necessity of a tribunal such as that es-
tablshed by The Hague convention. to
arbitrate between nations.

pleased to learn that in q few days
there viii be a great Improvement IN
the electric lighting OF the city There
has been strong complaint about the
dimness Of the electric lights, ana
much fault has been found by persons
not acquainted with the difficulties un-
der which the Utah Light and Power
company has labored. We learn that
an arrangement has been made with
The Telluride Power company, by which
extra power VIII be obtained, to be
Joined with that from the usual sources,
and that by this means the voltage
win be brought up TO the full standard.
The company Is now installing a l,bOQ-
horse. power steam engine at Its own
Jordan river plant, which, when fuzzy
completed, will replace the plant In the
heart of the city and thus do away
with the smoke nuisance from It's shaft
and stop that cause of complaint We
believe the company Is doing every
thing In its power to meet the demands
of the public, and feel sure that 1t
VIII succeed, and before the winter sets
In our city will be suitably lighted,
and both public and private demands
win be met with entire satisfaction.
