Granted a New Trial.

Last Saturday the Supreme Court
rendered a decisiyn granting a re-
trial to Sevener, Linderman, Rob-
cts and German, the four con-
dem c, men, now il the peniten
larry, awaiting execution. They
were convicted of the murder OF
Jack WEIGH and were to have lie n
hanged in the near future.
Ward N Consodine will now re-
move the men from the condemned
cell and stop the death watch, which
has been on duty for several weeks.
The prisoners will be taken back to
.Winnemucca and tried once more
for the terrible crime they are ac-
cused of committing.
The fact upon which the Supreme
Court bases its decision is that one
of the juror in the last trial ex-
pressed an opinion.

Paid His Assessment.

Judge Fitzgerald sent Nate Rolf,
Secretary of the State Fusion Gen.
trail Committee check for $3.50 90
in settlement of his share as a can
didate for the campaign of 1904.
1t has been frequently asserted
in political circles that the Judge.
after being elected to very lucra-
tive Office. declined to share any OF
the financial burdens Of the cam.
paign.
This has done the Judge great
injustice for as matter of fact when
he lied at headquarters in Reno
to pay, it was stated to him that no
sessment was necessary and so
the matter ran along until few
days ago when it reached his ears
that he, like other candidates, was
expected to contribute 10 per cent
of his first years salary. This he
promptly and cheerfufly did by sen
ding a check for the amount. -Ap-

JUST A MIXTURE.
INTERESTING MISCELLANEOUS READING
Coed Done By Unions.

Maurice Low, we'll known wri-
ter on economic subjects, contrib
utes to the North American Review
for June very interesting and i'm
portant report of recent observations
in connection with British indus
try. Among other things, he CLAN
ces at British trade unionism in its
latest developments, and in this
connection presents series of facts
which he characterizes as "A Les
son From English Labor" He
points out that the labor troubles
which have burdened British indus
try so seriously in times past have
arisen from irreconcilable purposes
held by the employer on the one
hand and the employed on the 9TH
er. He points out that in spite of
these differences of purpose trade
uniunism has been the agency lead
ing in England to increased wages,
decrease of hours and better condi-
tons generally for the wage work
er. Trade unionisrn, he declares,
is not solely to be credited with the
general improvement in the status
of the laboring class, but it has be-
yond question been one of the great
instruments in bringing about this
improvement. The trade union in
England has taught many lessons,
economic, social and humane. both
to employers and employees, and
while its extravagances and abuses
have been grave at times its gener-
al effect has been one of unques-
toned beue6cence.

FRUITA FORGING AHEAD
New Business Blocks Erected, New
Residences Going Up, Marks
of Improvements Noted
on Every Hand.

The present population of Fruita
shows a handsome gain over last year
satisfactory as this gain may be. it
will probably be eclipsed by that for
the next twelve months
Evidence of remarak BILE growth in
population and business is present on
every hand. More new residences were
built in Fruita last year than in any
previous twelve months in the history
of the town, and more permits for
buildings has been issued TINS far in
1904 than in any corresponding period.
and vet every one of these new resi-
dences is occupied. and there is con-
stant and ever increasing demand for
more.
AS to the old houses, practically
everything that is in condition to ad-
NIT of its being occupied by civilized
people is in use, aud the quarters va
Gated are Immediately taken by new
corners.
In the business district the same con-
dition obtains. The old firms which
have grown up with the town are be-
ing forced to increase their facilities
and occupy larger quarters. Thev
are doing more business than ever be-
fore-and yet the new firms that have
come in within the past few years are
also more than satisfied with the trade
they are handling.
To the older residents-and one
does not need to be a very old Fruitan
to remember when the town burst in
to metropolitan splendor'' this
growth appeals more strikingly than
to the men who nave arrived within
the past few years. The contrast be
tween the Fruita of today. with that
of only few years ago is so great
that it is difficult to over-estimate
what the future may have in store.
So long as farms and orchards are
adding so much new wealth to the
country tributary to Fruita, develop
meut will be forward at pace never
before approached There is evidence
of new blood, new wealth and a new
order of things.
As the country prospers, so does the
town, and the population of Fruita
in 1905 Will be larger by several hun
dred than it is now.
The prettiest town in Colorado is
not near the limit to which it hopes
TO grow. 'Rah Rah! 'Rah Fruita.

terpr ses.

one Of the most important meas
ures introduced into Congress thi'
session is the Brownlow Bill. II
calls for the expenditure Of $z4 900,
900 n yearly installments of $S,-
ooo,c 90 to be used for road improve
ment5 throughout the country. Thi,
sum to be apportioned according
to tie population of the different
states, the minimum sum being
$25o 600, and also on condition that
the states appropriate a like amount.
This would give Rhode Island, for
example, a half million dollars for
roads, halt of it coming from the
National government. 1t is urged, e,
and with Justice, that the govern
ment while it has spent millions on
rivers and harbors and millions more
on public buildings has done little or
nothing for the farmers and country
reside nts. 1t seems to us like a wise
and practical measure and if carried
out will benefit thousands of de-
serving and neglected people.
