Some time ago when Green Fisher

dy of the little son was awarded to
the father, but the order of the court
was recently changed and the child
was given to the mother. Mrs. Fish

her former home in Nebraska and
Fisher hearing of her int entions came
to Glenwood last Sunday and did a
kidnapping stunt that would make a
dime novel hero turn green with envy.

DISTRICT FAIR
CONES NEXT
Additional Space NeCeS-
Sdry to ACCOmmO-
date Applicants
For Display
Big BARBECUE WILL DRAW GREAT
CROWDS FROM ALL
SECTIONS

Next week comes the district fair.
The interest which has been aroused
among the farmers in the three couu-
ties represented promises to result in
one of the best fairs ever given on the
western slope.
Director Purtee, horticultural in
spector, is arousing exceptional inter
est among the fruit raisers and potato
growers and there is likely to be a
lively scramble for prizes among them.
All the space necessary will be pro
vided and every body can make as
liberal ii display as they desire.
Cache creek farmers have the CON
tract to furnish the watermelons and
cantaloupes which are to be given
away. That part of the county raises
an excellent quality of melon and
delicious feast may he expected by
the patrons of the fair.
Charles Harris, Bob Ware and Hube
Strouse will do the roasting and cary
ing at the barbecue and everybody
who misses this event will be greatly
disappointed when their friends are
telling them about it.
Secretary Hoover desires that all
potato growers be informed of the fact
that all potato exhibits are to go to
the World $ Fair and it will be nee
essary for everybody to bring their
best and plenty of them. Garfield
county has started out to beat the
world ON potato exhibits at the fair
and if everybody takes the interest
necessary there will be no question as
to the result.
The officials of the fair are not
allowed to compete for prizes but Sec
retary Hoover and the other members
of the board will make an exhibit,
nevertheless, to show that they are
not out of business.
There is considerable rivalry be-
tween Peach Valley and Parachute
rs to what section can produce the best
fruit and the finest varieties from
both parts of the county will be dis
played,
Something new in the way of disc
plow has been received this week,
and the club has decided to give it
away along with the other machinery.
This plow cuts two burrows of four
teen inches each with less draught than
ordinary plows. Its cost to the dis
trict fair committee is f65.
The district fair building has been
painted and new tables put in and is
ready to receive the exhibits Addi-
tional space has also. been provided in
case the overflow of Exhibits is con
! siderable.

been able to get together in Garfield

the silver question in 1896.
The first business at the afternoon
session was the report of the committee
on credentials to the effect that those

that the temporary organization bt
made permanent and submitted sched
ule for the nomination of the candi
dates for the variouf offices.
Judge Beardsley thought 8
different order would be better and
moved that certain changes be made
but, as he was not able to give any
reason for such action, the convention
decided to accept the original report
as presented by the committee.
The question CT the plan of select
ing delegates to the state, congres
sional and judicial conventions
brought out some debate but was
solved by authorizing the chair to ap.
point committee of seven to select
delegates to the three conventions and
report the names to the convention
for approval. The committee ON Sc
lection consisted of G. G. Parks. E
H. Grubb. J. J. Shideler, Ira Chad

the second district. The ballot re.
suited in vote of 55 to 81 in favor
of Mr.. Jessup, who was declared the
nominee of the convention.
The contest for the nomination tc
the Office of county superintendent OF

closely contested one whic1 required
three ballots to decide. The first bal

wood Springs, Miss Maude Urquhart,

Mr. Sommers, 20. Before the first
ballot was taken the members of the
convention voted to eliminate all but
two the highest candidates after the
first ballot if no election resulted.
The supporters of Miss Lay didn
want to accept this action but after
the result of the first ballot was an
nounced someone desired to take tht
