If you would make canvass right
now of those who really think it
possible to construct an electric road
through Mesa county. you would not
find one in ten, who could be found
with sufficient faith in the project.
This is not surprising. The ratio of
those who believed that the sugar fac
tory or smelter could be built in this
city was probably less. A promoter
is not dismayed by any such showing,
however, in fact he rather anticipates
it. There must be knockers to every
scheme in order to produce good
boosters The construction of an
electric line does not present one half
the obstacles to building as steam

of construction and the necessities of

home they saw Mrs. Costenzo and told
her of their mission and she told
them to go out in the garden and get
the corn. This they did. They
then came back, according to Hewey S

CREDIT THE REPORTER

To the members of the newspaper
profession has been ascribed many
pieces of first class detective work. 1t
is part of the profession of first
class reporter to be ever watchful of
things in general and of public del
inquencies in particular. Possibly
the most effective piece of repertorial
detective work performed in this coun-
try was that which was done by JOS
eph Gavin, who recently died in Mis-
souri, Gavin was reporter ON st.
Louis daily when he discovered that
there was on deposit in one of the
banking institutions, the big alder
manic corruption fund. He it was
who first gave an intimation of it in
one of the st. Louis papers and who
forthwith called before Joseph W..
Folk. the prosecuting attorney and
asked to give the details, which put
in possession of Folk the details of that
corruption plot. The uncoverinR
will lead him to the seat of the chief
executive of one of the richest and
greatest states in the union.
Folk was not forgetful of Gavin,
nor did he endeavor to steal from
him the plaudits that came to Gavin
for his work, but Folk is to be the
beneficiary of the reporters work.

Because of that information discovered

four are held as witnesses and two are
still fugitives.
This is only one of the thousands
of instances where Justice has been
aided by repertorial inquisitives.

or more of his repertorial friends for

chiefs.
Gavin, who gave Folk the inform
alton which pnearthed the most ei-
Rantic scheme of boodling in the his
tory of municipalities in this country,
got little credit. but this would not
have deferred him in the least in per-
forming a similar niece of work the
very next day.
A good reporter is trained to keer
his eyes and ears open for criminality
and shortcomings everywhere and the
fear of punishment or hope of reward
will not influence or deter him.

The proposition of Judge Ben b,
Lindsey to give free baths to the

Wherever the japanese armies go

colonists follow. Korea is filling up,
especially in the southern part, with
small farmers from the Mikado's over
crowded empire Manchuria is being
populated in the same way. As re-
suit of the previous war thousands of
japanese migrated to Formosa. where
they constitute a sturdy producing class
and a territorial militia.
The settlers who are now flocking into
Manehuria will put in crops when
spring comes to help feed the army.
Enough of them, together with the ma

to carry other supplies than food and
to return with the wounded, lines Of

next summer without doing material
harm to Oyama's armies. Given Port

their own ammunition on the ground.

A pleasant party was given at the
home of Mrs. w. Robinson two weeks
ago Saturday night. Games and music
afforded the amusements of the even

cake were served at midnight.
Mrs. Carl Froelich, who has been
visiting relatives and friends, has re-

Geo. Voolfolk, who has been work

Miss J. Newell, after spending a few
days in the city, returned home last

While climbing a tree one day at
school last week, James Smith fell a

one wrist and threw the other out of

had just recovered sufficiently from a
