Old General Apathy has a strong

OF them being present az the cou1-
ell meeting held at Ballard Friday
night
Al this meeting the petition for
annexation was carefully examined
and II was found that out Of the
$50 names signed 10 il nearly 100
were Illegal. the slgners having reg
istered neither at the last electluH
nor the one before. One name Wa
found. that Of Johanus Bengateton,
after which was written the words
'cannot registeF"
II was apparent, according 10 The
opinion Of the committee and City
ATTORNEY lugcrs0l. that fraud had
been perpetrated In securing some
OF he signatures. and Il the pc
9flon Is to be acted on u vii re-
ouire the names Of at least p more

Amusements
Tho kiItioS.

The sKilties band, travelling in
their own special cars and with their
knees exposed to the weather and
staring of people were in Greeley
for one whole day and night last
Monday, and incidentally gave a
pleasing and artistic musical pro-
gram in the opera house in the even
ing.
1t was not much over half a
house that greeted the organization,
and had it not been for the hand
some display of knees seen on the
street during the day, it is doubtful
if there would have been even half
that many. The Highland uniforms
seemed to please more than the
music. The bagpipe took better
than the only Wagnerian number on
the program, which, nevertheless,
was the most effective piece of work
done by the band.
An alleged humorous composition
In which different members of the
band bobbed up here and there and
gave a few measures of the air was
greeted with unroarous applause.
while we'll rendered selection from
Mariana" went practically un.
noticed. All of which. proves that
Greeley people are light hearted
lot and would rather be amused than
educated when they go to the
theatre.
To the few music lovers of the
city the Kilties band will always be
welcome, because it is one of the
few good organizations of the kind
that come here. 1t is probably not
the best that has ever been heard
here, but the band plays we'll enough
for the most critical ear, and an
evening spent listening to the varied
program of light and heavy music is
we'll spent.
The Scotch and Irish dances and
the singing and whistling of Scotch
airs tend to please all tastes, so that
the Kilties band should be popular
and financial success.

Dies Suddenly.

Mrs. J. VanReader of Glidden,
Carroll county, Iowa, died here
Tuesday evening from consumption.
She came here only that morning,
with her husband and her father and
mother, Mr.. and Mrs. j. F. Cox. A
short time ago, upon advice from the
home physician. the family sold out
everything they had and went to
Oregon. AS Oregon is never good
place for consumptives and the rainy
season was just setting in there
doctors there sent the family back to
Colorado. The sudden change in
altitude and climate was too much,
however, for the invalid and she
died almost Immediately after their
arrival.

through Texas, and multiplied the
value of millions of acres of land.
Land worth nothing became pro-
ductive and worth twenty, thirty
ana fifty dollars an acre.
| An irrigation ditch is promoted
and 20, 900 acres dead desert blossom
and bloon into fertility. 1t was
worth nothing and increased to 500
an acre.
You can figure the percentage
,, yourself,
The great rewards come to men of
initiative-and to those who back
them.
The promoter having initiative,
seeks the speculator who has nerve
and by them the country is devet-
oped.
Wouldbe conservatives wear long
faces saying, The American people
are gamblers and the curse OF the
age is the uesire to get quickly
rich.
Had not Columbus been gam
bier, Mr.. Dooley would never have
met him at the dock, and we would
have never been discovered.
The late Mr.. Bonaparte said,
You can't make an omelet without
breaking some eggs.'' Therefore, it
is to be expected that in strenuous
work there will be losses and error,
but the good outbalances the bad.
Doubtless there have been bad pro-
motors and bad promotions.
Also, there have been trickery and
dishonesty and dishonor, in every
walk Of life in every age.
The profits Of promotion and specu-
lation are large, sometimes maybe
! too large, but certainly many times
they have been too samll.
The promoter has added billions
to the wealth of the country, where
he has been paid in thousands.
There has been finance of the
frenzied variety, but, after all, let
us observe it with sane eyes, and
with minds unfuddled by claptrap.
Let us remember that this is a
country of speculation and promotion
and that it is yet young.
Its undeveloped resources are
greater than those developed.
So there must be more and greater
promotions to come.
If we do not ourselves WELD the
pick and swing the ak, let us at
least give due credit to the man who
does.
And let US give him credit though
as promoter who does his manual
work by proxy.
Let us be good to him for he and
his kind have made the world better;
he is as surely producer as the man
with the hoe.-Chas. Austin Bates
in Four Track News.
1t gives food for great deal of
thought, and should cause every one
to stop and consider proposed pro-
ject from broad gauge view before
passing comment. Don't knock If
you have not sufficient confidence in
the project to lend your financial and
moral support. If we are not our
brothers. keeper, let us give him the
same right we demand, j. e.. To do
as he thinks best.
