in Denver and supposed to be edited
by somebody until after election.
The CHRONICLE last week stated
some facts about w. o. Mieir which
seem to hurt that gentleman. 1t is
true that facts sometimes do hurt,
and we do not wonder that Mieir
squirms. We have not begun to tell
all the facts and hope that we shall
not find it necessary to do so. The
people know too much already about
Mieir's oil fake to need any enlight-
epmen: from this paper. Let him
account for the $4,000 he received
from the state and the money he re.
ceived from farmers and business
men in this county. All he is asked
to do is to make an accounting. The
people will then know whether or not
the money that he received has been
judiciously and honestly expended.
The sheet referred to, which is
printed at Denver and filled with
spread eagle oratory about freedom
anu liberty and violations of law, etc,
ETC., also contains hypocritical wall
about what the Braiden Land and
Investment Co., is doing for La Jsra
and this section. Since they have
voluntarily injected this shadowy con.
cern into the discussion we are given
much more latitude in han ding mat
ters of vital concern to the people of
this section. A better wording would
have been show we are doing the
homeseeker." We quote from the
Denver. LaJara Freak briefly as fol.
lows:
1.-THE work of the Braiden Real
Estate and Investment Co., has been
of more real value to Conejos county
and especially to La Jara since i. be-
gan than that of any other business
enterprise in operation"
What do you think of that. II
may be enterprising to hold up the
poor homeseeker, and take all the
money he has and take a mortgage
on his future life and give him In re-
turn worthless piece of land bought
in for taxes. 1t is certainly enter
prising to select sample grain and
vegetables from our best ranches
and use the same for bait to catch
the poor suckers in their trap. Ask
the poor suckers caught in this way
whether or not the Braiden Real Els.
tate and Investment Co., is not en-
terprising! This damnable business
of SO called real estate men has done
more to curse our country and keep it
in the background than the grass
hopper plague had for bleeding Kan
sas. There are respectable real es.
tate men; we do not mean to con-
denim the whole class, but we do say
that the hold-up should no more be
tolerated in a community than the
masked hold-up who puts pistol to
your head and demands your money
or your life. In the arid regions
there is always some of the most
productive land on earth and some
land that is absolutely worthless.
This affords an opportunity to un.
principled, cunning, dishonest men
posing as real estate agents to rob
the eastern homeseeker, who comes
from a country where all land is
nearly alike and equally valuable.
We denounce the Braiden Real Els.

TRAVEL NORTH
| IS INCREASED
SLUMP DUE TO COLD WEATHER
rs NOW OVER.
TRAINS WELL FILLED
A Remarkable Increase Has Been
Noticed Since Sunday in the
Travel.
TRAINS WELL FILLED

An Increase of considerable proper
tons was marked yesterday and to-
day in the number of passengers car
ried from Richmond to the resorts
of Michigan. This evening the train
will be enlarged to accommodate the
suddenly increased travel, the sud-
denness Of which is only exceeded by
it's unexpecte!ness. Sunday the
trains to the north were but slightly
filled. Yesterday and today the num-
Der of passengers Is large one, and
it looks as though the real summer
resort travel, which has been kept
small so far this year on account of
the chilly weather, is about to begin.
The conductors and train officials of
the G. r. & /. state that the heavy
travel can not come any too soon to
suit them, as up to the present time
the travel has not assumed anything
like the proportions it has assumed
in years and should assume this year,
regardless of the st. Louis Fair,
which is not proving a drawing card.
1t is rather late for the bulk of the
travel, as it was expected that the
climax would come about August 6 or
Z, instead of later, as in former years,
but the heaviness of the present trav-
ell makes up for delinquencies.
The cool weather of July set the
travel to the north back several
notches, most of the tourists be-
ing "regulars' or cottage resorters,
whom the weather Of Greenland could
not prevent from visiting the beauti-
full north end Of Michigan. The
slump, due to this cold weather is be-
lieved to be entirely over at present
and the travel to Michigan will as
sumo its wonted proportions.
The sleepers from st. Louis, Louis
vile, Cincinnati, ETC., which are at
tached to the trains here, are but
fairly filed, the Louisville shipper
having by far the largest number of
tourists on board.

Bank BadIv Involved,

Grinnell, Ia, Aug. 1.-THE irregu-
larities in the management of the
First National bank of this city, whose
cashier, H. c. Spencer, met death with
his son in mysterious double drown
ing two weeks ago, include not merely
the embezzlement of funds, but also
extensive forgeries. Evidence of this
fact came to light in the discovery of
nine bogus notes purporting to be
signed by as many prominent farmers
and business men of this section. The
nine notes aggregate $7,479. The
banks receiver sent notices to men
whose names were attached, and they
appeared and declared the signatures
spurious. In each case there was a
slight transposition of letters in spell
ing of names. How many more notes
of the same character are extant is not
yet known.

st. Petersburg Aug. 1.-THE great
est anxiety prevails here for news OF
the general advance against the south
ern and eastern positions of General
Kuropatkin's army. The public be-
lieves that the decisive battle of the
campaign is being fought, but this has
not yet been established. Indeed, it
is learned from the keenest military
attaches in ST. Petersburg that for
several days the main body of the
Russian army has been moving north
toward Mukden and that when the
present line to the southeast is forced
the Japanese will find that they have
only crushed the shell. Should this
prove to be so, General Kuropatkin
will doubtless be obliged to destroy
the immense quantities of stores &C
cumulated at Lao Yang.
Shrewd military critics, however.
do not believe that General Kuropat-
kin can escape a general engagement.
His army forms a wedge. with General
Oku hammering away at the point and
General Nodzu and Kuroki operating
with driving movements of great force
against the sides. If one of the latter
should break through the southern
force would be doomed.
The general staff seems amazed at
the immense strength of these CO.
operating Japanese armies. The Jap
anese evidently have succeeded in
concealing the real number of their
men and guns, which the general staff
now believes must be in excess OF
100000 men, with between 800 and
400 guns.
While General Oku is holding the
Russian army at Haicheng in check,
General Nodzu is evidently trying to
work around the vital position at ST.
moucheng. At the same time General
Kuroki is trying to flank the first ST.
berian army corps, which was COM
manded by the late Lieutenant Gen
eral Count Keller, at Yanzalin, on the
main Feng Wang Cheng road, and is
also pushing strong column through
direct toward Lao Yang on the Sal
matsze road. There is a road leading
north from Simoucheng which strikes
the Feng Wang Cheng-Liao Yang road
west of Yanzalin. If Simoucheng
should be forced, a rapid advance
along this road would pocket the first
Siberian corps.
It is impossible to confirm or deny
the Toxic report that Simoucheng has
been forced, but If it is true it leaves
the the Russian forces in an extremely
serious position.
Lacking definite information, and if
the Russian formation has not been
broken by the capture Of Simoucheng,
the authorities here say that if Ku-
ropatkin accepts a general engage
ment they believe it will occur near
Anschantschan, half way between
Haicheng and Lao yang, in which
case the Haicheng force will fall back
thither and the Simoucheng force I'M
der General Mitschenko on the north
ward road to Yanzalin, which is al
ready fortified with view to such a
contingency. YanZalin would then be-
come the advanced position for Ans
chantschan, the natural strength of
which is shown by the fact that it was
fully defended against the japanese.
1t is possible that If Simoucheng is
evacuated it may be in pursuance of
the above plan, and it is also possible
in this case that General Stakelberg
may get away north, but in any case
his retreat with Oku hanging to his
rear must be a difficult operation, even
