Post of the 18th inst. as follows:
"He Or. Mason) is slowly dy-

will not recover from the present
attack. If he should rally he
might be up and around for a few
weeks or months, but his death
will certainly come within very

acute Bright's disease that attacks
so many middle aged men. HIS

LOCAL NEWS.

A conference of individual wat
cr owners and the officers Of the
Petersen Canal and Reservoir
company was held in the Office of
Secretary Loveland Tuesday.
The conference extended over the
greater part of the day and the
condition of the ditch and other
matters were freely and fully dis
cussed. A proposition was made
by the canal company to sell the
canal to the owners of individual
water rights for SIG, 100000, the
company to retain the water con-
tracts already made. This puts q
valuation of $50, 100000 upon the
canal. In order to accept the
proposition of the canal company
it will be necessary for the farm
ers to organize an irrigation dis
trict and issue bonds for the pay
mcnt of the price asked by the
company. Another conference
of the parties will be held next
Tuesday, at which time an answer
to the company's proposition will
be ready. Should the farmers
organize district, provisions
Should be made to vote a sufficient
amount in bonds to build the jun
DO reservoir, and thus provide
storage water for the dry season.
Two hundred Thousand dollars
would buy the canal and build Il
reservoir. This would mean a
tax of $1,000 per acre against all
the land in the district-an insig-
nificant amount, considering the
value perpetual water would be
to the land.

Last Monday Miss Alice Bower
closed u deal for the Chris Ander-

burg. The consideration was
$1,000. The record Of the trans.
fers of this property in the last
three years shows it to have in
creased in value one third during
that time. Less than three years
ago it sold for $500, and the in
crease in value to 81, 200 is fair
example of the general increase
in the value of all Julesburg prop
erty. Real estate values here
have reached a solid basis, and
investments made now can not
fail to result protitably to those
who make them.
