to the Democratic party. 1t is said
that the President has more fear OF

he is doing all in his power to pre-

1t was no doubt with his approval,
that Senator Gorman's brother has
lust been dismissed from the Treas

not give out the exact nature of the

dismissal comes at moment which

given out last Tuesday and the vic.
tory of the United States has pleased
the Americans, angered the Cana
dams, and surprised the British. The
Canadian commissioners refused to
sign the award but they affixed their
signatures to the map which was
agreed upon by the majority. The
boundary decided upon lies far from
the coast and gives to the United
States substantially all The territory In

S()E 7 COPE:

Like the running brook, the
red blood that flows through
the veins has to come from
somewhere.
The springs of red blood are
found in the soft core of the
bones called the marrow and
some say red blood also comes
from the spleen. Healthy bone
marrow and healthy spleen
are full of fat.
SCOTS Emulsion makes new
blood by feeding the bone
marrow and the spleen with
the richest of all fats, the pure
cod liver oil.
For pale school girls and
invalids and for all whose
blood is thin and pale, SCOTS
Emulsion is a pleasant and rich
blood food. 1t not only feeds
the bloodmaking organs but
gives them strength to do
their proper work.

La Junta tribune., 1903-10-14

CoLoRADo is now in the republi-
can ranks to stay, under certain
contingencies, but it can be easily
driven into the democratic lineup
by unworthy men who place politi-
cal ambitions above party welfare.
President Roosevelt has sounded
a note Of warning by making the
declaration that he is tired Of the
iactional fights, partisan hatreds
and peanut politics in Colorado.
His advice to the republicans Of
the state is to get together and stick
together. Otherwise the president
threatens to distribute federal pa.
tronage in the state regardless oi
the wishes or political interests oi
either side in the factional strife.
More power to him.

The Colorado sugar beet will be
given full Reorganization at the
ST. Louis Worlds Fair next year.
Six thousand square feet of floor
space for cane and beet sugar dis
plays have been set aside, one-hAli
of which will be used by the Colo
RADIO exhibitors and the other by
Louisiana. II is the intention to
make the beet sugar industry one
OF the features OF the Colorado ex
hibit at the Worlds Fair.

WEDNESDAY. OCT. "a. 1903.

The latest estimate OF the Ameri-
can Beet Sugar company is that in
spite Of a considerable acreage
damaged by early climatic condi-
t,ons the tonnage will be about the
same as last year. The factory
has capacity OF 1000 tons OF
bects per day. which at a net pro-
dnctions OF twelve per cent Of su-
gar would make the daily output
400 sack OF sugar weighing one
hundred pound each.
La Junta tribune., 1903-10-14

NEARLY 1000 tons OF beets per
day are being hauled into Rocky
Ford by the Santa Fe and still the
factory complains that the beets
are not being moved fast enough.
The quality of the beets is up to
the standard Of last year, and al.
though 1t has been an unfavorable
season 70. beets as well as every
thing else, the acreage is larger and
the total tonnage will be fully as
large as last season. This is the
fourth campaign OF the Rocky Ford
beet sugar factory. The first cam
paign 40. 200 tons OF beets were
received; the second year 70. 900
tons; and the third year over 100,
600 tons. The beet crop in the
Arkansas Valley this season will
probably bring the farmers nearly
$500. 900. There are about 1, 500
growers in the Valley.

A few months ago the Island Of
Jamaica was devastated by ter
ribie cyclone and great tidal wave.
Most OF the buildings on the island
were wrecked, making thousands
Of people homeless; all of the crops
we're destroyed and the people are
new in frenzy Of despair through
hunger. Unless something is done
Immediately to relieve the distress
the situation OF a number OF Ameri-
can missionaries resident in the
island will become perilous. Dr..
A. L. Stubbs received 4 letter this
week from his sister. Mrs. Alma
Stubbs, who has been a missionary
in the island for ten years, with
her husband, Rev. A. H. Stubbs.
An appeal to the people of La
Junta for aid, we do not believe
will be in vain, when they read Of
the terrible conditions that prevail.
The letter from Mrs. Swift is IS
follows:
Owe are in the midst OF terrible
times. The provisions are nearly
gone. People are beginning to
look hungry and in some neigbboT
hoods they are rebellious. You
know the white people here are
continually in fear OF An uprising
from the people. One gentleman
has had the people OF his village
come and throw themselves in his
yard and declare that he had to
support the people OF his property.
He had to call in the police. Our
people AZ. far more gentle than
those OF other places. Christ en-.
thToned in the heart does much for
a people.
"There are scores and scores OF
people coming to US from other
villages. There is much walking
about and restless discontentment.
We are on pretty hard strain.
We could control our own people
and villages if it were not for out
side influnces. lpresume we have
z, 900 under our direct influence.
There has a little money come to
us, $50 from one scource and S75
from another. We have put that
into our building fund and il gives
fifty people work for two weeks.
You would be surprised at the
difference il makes in the commun.
tiles. There IS dignity about la
Dor that brings contentment and il
just seems that the little that has
been done by the government and
friends from abroad. has had a
demoralizing effect II is all well
meant, but the supply is so far be
low the demand.
"Mr. Swift's influence is being
felt. He is advocating in the Re
left committee work. That is the
best way to manage this people.
II has taken th ose slow English
men six weeks to see il. and not un
til mob is about upon US, do they
waken up to the fact and the reso-
lation is at last written. Perhaps
when communities have suffered
violence, they will waken up aud

NEW SCHEME FOR HANoicAPPINe.

The third annual meeting OF the New-Jersey State
Golf Association which takes place in this city
January 21 promises TO put into effect scheme for
handicapping that will ultimately be adopted
throughout the country Already preparations are
being made by the Metropolitan Golf Association
to adopt It, and similar action is expected from the
Chicago Philadelphia and Boston leagues.
Briefly, the scheme is substitute the par score
of a links the basis of handicappIng. instead OF
the bogie score Lionel H. Graham, president OF
the New-Jersey association, is the primarily
responsible for the movement. In circular to
the members OF his association Mr. Graham s1-
plains his ideas follows:
Theoretically this system Is correct In practice.
however. IL will be found impossible TO accurately
represent the playing values eff the different holes
In whole figures The remedy therefore, Is 20 al
low half strones. which is the system now recon-
Tuended. With the universal adoption OF tnis sys-
tenn the work OF handicap committees. at present
operous should be compare lively easy and the re-
gree of satisfaction TO golfers Club handisaps as
a rule, at present based on the 'bog1e or ths

Some clubs have scratch players. put o2Se thelr
handcaps on the amateur champion, and others

these systems Inaccurate and advisable rroul
@bogie is altogether 200 elastic: scratch players
have varying orders of merit, and amateur cHan-
rions not always worthy or the poSltion Iney
occupy. Par IS based entirely upon the playing
length of a hole. and 1t is recommended that the
