THE GRAND VALLEY

Western Colorado is n country of
high table lands and narrow valleys.
The extremes of these conditions are
to be found further west in the canon
lands of Arizona and Utah. but
similar geographical features prevail
west of the continental range in Colo
RADIO These valleys are, to be sure
broad when measured by the ordinary
standard such as prevail in smaller
states. but they are narrow in COM
parison with the grand expan Sc of
arid table-lands of the Rocky Noun
tain slope
The two great valleys of western
Colorado are those of the Grand and
the Gunnison. which streams unite in
broad river that carries more than
half of the entire volume of Colora-
dos running waters. Within these
two valleys are to be found natuI al
resources of variety and extent that
find their only rivals in those of the
Arkansas valley of eastern Colorado
and which are unapproached outside
of the state limits
From the earliest history of settle
ment in this state it has been evident
that the junction of these two great
rivers would be the location of one of
the largest cities of the state, and the
development of Grand Junction is in
accordance with the principals that
are evident and easily under stood by
everyone. The valleys determined
the location of the railway lines The
broad mesas and bottoms lands. easily
irrigated from inexhaustible streams,
assure the developement of large agri-
cultural enterprises The presence of
large veins of excellent coal furnishes
sure foundation for industrial devel-
opement. The rich mines of metal in
the enciroling mountains assure
steady mining industry and n local
market for the products of the farms
aud ranches
No other city in western Colorado
has the geographical advantages pos
sessed by Grand Junction, and no one
appreciates this fact any better than |
the enterprising men who have estab- |
hshed themselves in this city, and |
who are making such noble progress
III working out the developement of |
their city and the surrounding coun-
try.
One of the most surprising things
in connection with such cities is the
The daily sentinel., 1903-11-17

The strike situation is very quiet
this morning. The report circulated
Yesterday that the miners in the
northern field would resume has been
denied. a canvas of Saturdays vote
has been taken and it was ascertained
that the miners had decided by ma
iority of six not to go back to work.
1t is rumored that another vote will
be taken as it is rumored that the bal
lot boxes were stuffed and there is
much dissatisfaction over the result.
1t is said that the operators are also
very much disappointed over the re-
suit. A large number of the idle
steel workers from the G. F. and |. at
Pueblo say that they will go to the
coal fields and dig coal until the mills
lesume work.

That was coward act. the shoot
the streets of st Joe. by drummer
The coward who pulled the trigger,
was dared to do so by mis- companion
but he dared to do the coward act and
the bullet from his weapon sent a
young man to his death, against whom
the other had merely disagreement
to cause him to shoot. When will
public sentiment become so strong
against the man who carries a weapon
under ordinary cirumstnces that to be
found in his possession will stamp
him a coward and a poltroon.

The nosition of Mr.. Rrvan, regard
ing the legacy left him, by the rich
New Englander, was in every way
honorable to himself. He occupied a
most delicate position. one wherein
he might have been arbitrary and
caused the widow of the dead friend
infinite trouble and expense. He how
ever, without offending anyone has
shown himself such a true gentleman
in the conduct of his defense of the
bequest. wherein the wife positively
refuses to abide the will of her de-
ceased husband that ho has won many

amount that has been accomplished,
due to outside capital. The pioneers
of western Colorado were not men of
wealth; neither had they the connec-
tions that enabled them to draw ON
large stores of eastern capital But
they were men of enterprise. unbound
ed energy, untiring determination and
a practical good sense which enabled
them to use their limited resources in
such way as to produce the best
possible results.
In the history of American develop
ment there is not anywhere n more
notable story of the triumph of the
American pioneer than is to be gath
cred from the western slope of Colo
RADIO. And when one considers what
has been accomplished under adverse
circumstances and in spite of so many
obstacles and discouragements, one can
but wonder what would be the result
if n small proportion of the idle cap

vainly seeking safe and profitable
Investment We're to be turned into
these channels. Like the barren sage
brush mesas that only need the touch
OF the water course to make them
surpass the fields and gardens of the
east in fertility and productiveness,
so these arid regions of business op-
portunity would certainly spring into
life ana produce results of amazing
benefit both to the intelligent inves-
tors and to the pioneers who have
gathered such marvels from such small
undertakings.
Grand Junction, magnificent as it
is in its showing of accomplishments.
is only one of the many regions in
Colorado that need only "A denser pop

become home of populous and

no more pleasing task for any indi-
