Sanitary Inspector Bean and Street
toulouse inspection of the entire city
This is being done under the order in
troduced by Councilman Harrington.
some little time ago. The inspection is
largely as Il sanitary measure and as
such is regarded as complete success.
The people have all been glad to see
the officials. who make it Il point to
give any suggestions desired for the
Improvement of the sanitary condition
of the residences. Everyone seems
ANXIOUS to do all they can to bring this
about. 1t is having another salutary
effect. Many hear about the inspection
and in anticipation of the visit of the
officials are sticking up their lawns in
a manner much better than usual early
in the season. The street engineer is

show the location of all the lots and
buildings and just what ones are con-
nected with the sewers. The majority
of the residences are connected already
but still there are q number which are
not and the inspection is bringing ii to
the owners attention. The effect OF
this is that there are more who are
making the connections at the present
time than for a number of years. The
work has been going on for about two
weeks and it will take nearly that time
to finish.

The BOer Stars. and the American
Boys met. yesterday afternoon. and had
a hot game of ball On the Church street
grounds. The game was a close one
and the result is still in doubt. The
South African representatives claim
the honors by score Of II to II, while
the American team just as strenuously
assert that they were the winners al
though they make no claims of know
ing just how the score stood The feel

HOW DIME NOVELS ARE MADE

The Denver News publishes a
sensational article from the Chicago
Inter Ocean on the subject Of the
war between the cattle and sheep
men Of western Colorado. AS is
usual in such cases the eastern
newspaper writer has by some
means or other got possession OF a
few facts and has then proceeded to
hash them up together into highly
sensational yarn on the dime novel
order.
The article purports to give life
sketch o! woman, and the incl
dent which gave birth to the sketch
is the slaughter Of the Angora
goats by unknown ruffians on Pinon
Mesa. While the main facts rela
tive to the lady's life story and the
slaughter of her herd Of goats are
probably correct enough yet such
lurid light is thrown on the ac

LEGAL PING-PONG.

Game Warden Harris and DR..
McCapes, the state veterinarian are
playing game of legal ping pong
Harris says that the deer on the
ranges are afflicted with actinomy>
COSTS, a disease which gives the man,
who tries to pronounce it,the LUMP
Jaw" Now the deer on the ranges
are the property of the state Of Col
orado. and Harris claims that it is
the duty of DIR. McCapes to treat
all the sick dumb animals belong
ing to the state. The attorney gen
eral is taking hand in the game,
and will probably hand in an opin>
ion in favor Of the vet. 1t appears
to us that the whole business is a
little piece of ioolishness How in
the name of common sense could
the poor doctor be expected to ride
over the hills and administer hypo-
dermic injections to all the wild
deer in the mountains? The only
way the stuff could be administers
ed would be through the medium

cessories and the conditions which
led to the killing that eastern read
ers will be led entirely astray in
forming an estimate of the charac>
ter of western Coloradans in gen>
eral. Mrs. Irving is reported as
being the herione leader of a band
Of desperate sheep owners. and to
be engaged in a hand to hand,
knife to knife, fight it out to the
death struggle with the cattle men,
who in turn are a mob of lawless
desperadocs. To quote more fully,
the Inter Ocean man says;
at is fight of millions against
millions. 1t is also fight in which
the weapons are the knife and piss
tol for the combatants and poison
and dynamite for the animals over
which the struggle is waged. A
dozen lives have been lost, 100000
sheep have been killed and the
value OF other property which has
been destroyed has never been es>
timated. The struggle is not one
where commercial strategy pits
court injunction and clever business
moves against similar plans, but is
one where the methods of the
frontiersman and cowboy are relic d
upon to bring victory to the war;
ring interests. Ten thousand sheep
have been killed within the p,st
three months. Mrs. Irving has
surrounded herself with a force Of
armed men and is prepared to
meet tha cattlemen should they
move on her ranch on Pinon Mesa
They are men Of the plains, whose
revolver aim is always true, and she
is the leader Of such a force"
There is lots more OF this rub
bish. The fact that the writer
spells Pinon (PINEoN) coupled with
the "men of the plains" points to
some tenderfoot tourist as the au-
thor.
Much as the unlawful killing of
those Angora goats is to be regret
ted, Mrs. Irving will not raise hers
self in the estimation of her sym
pathixers here if she allows such
tommy rot as this to go without a
published remonstrance on her
part.

mously adopted:
Whereas, The democratic and popu-

past been united against a common enc
my, in county, state and nation; and,
Whereas, We believe the princi los
for the extension and advancement OF

can be better advanced and more effect
ually extended by closer union OF the
reform forces; and,
Whereas, No vital or important issue
now separates the forces Of these two
allied parties, and the adherents Of both
bodies differ principally in name only,
therefore, be it
Resolved, BY the county central com
mittee OF the democratic party, that a
