AFTER GREELEY MEN
Longmont Farmers Resolute
Copiously and Adjourn.

Farmers in the vicinity of Long
m ont are having all kinds Of trou-
BILE about irrigation water, fearing
that outsiders are about to break
in on their rights. The following
resolutions were adopted at recent
meeting and refers to a company
whose principal stockholders are
Greeley men:
Whereas, there has been con-
structed certain reservoirs and the
impounding of waters therefrom have
been applied to irrigate lands trib-
uta-y to the city of Longmont, and
Whereas, certain ditch company,
viz, The Boulder and Weld County
Reservoir company has applied for
decree of 197 feet per second of time -
for immediate irrigation and
Whereas, under the present laws
as construed by our courts, the grant
ing of this application would prevent
the filling of these reservoirs in many
years, thereby rendering the land
heretofore irrigated by water from
these reservoirs practically worthless
by depriving them of their water
rights. and
Whereas. we believe that water
stored and subsequently stored ap-
piled as to the irrigation of growing
crops, constitutes an appropriation
of water under the meaning of our
stato copct ctitutiOp and
Whereas, the said constitution pro-
vides that the appropriation of water
for beneficial use shall never be de-
MED, and says further that prior
ity" of appropriation shall give the
better right as between those using
water for the same purpose.
Resolved, that we pledge this as
sociation to use all legal means to
prevent such injustice, and we earn

BREAK in POTATOES
The Price Dropped to Twenty
five Cents Saturday.

The first break in the price of po-
tatoes since the organization ofsthe
Potato Growers and Dealers associa-
tion occurred last Saturday when all
the dealers commenced to offer 25
cents hundred for spuds. For
several days the dealers have been
wavering about falling into line
with the dealers who bolted two or
three weeks ago, and pay % cents a
hundred in order that they might
compete with these dealers Oh the
market. There has scarcely been any
orders received by the association
dealers, as they were bound by the
agreement to pay 30 cents a hundred
while other dealers were paying only
% cents hundred and quoting po-
tatoes at 30 cents. A meeting of the
executive committee of the farmers
branch of the association was held
Friday afternoon, and it was decided
there that the farmers would stand
pat for 30 cents. There are, however,
considerable number of farmers
who are ready and willing to sell at
25 cents in order to get rid of their
immense stock and realize at least
a little upon same. Dealers main
tain that there is absolutely no rea-
son for dropping the price, providing
all had stood by the agreement, as
fully as many potatoes would be
moved out of here at 30 cents a
hundred as would move at 20 cents,
but in order to meet competing
prices and not to lose the field they
must pay the lowest price at which
the produce can be obtained.

Rare Birds.

Three birds, rare in this section,
have made their appearance in Gree
ley, according to the statement of
John V. CDne, the bird man of the
State Normal. The first is called
the western evening grossbeak, and
earned it's title from a large white
horny looking beak. 1t is otherwise a
bird Of beautiful colors, black, red
and yellow being profusely mixed.
They visit the box elder trees and
feed upon the seed.
Another bird is the Bohemian wax
wing. This is crested bird with a
black chin, and of general brown
ish color. The wing feathers are
tipped with red or yellow, and on
some Of them there is a horny SUBJ
stance resembling sealing wax, from
which it takes it's name.
The third rara avis is the wood
house jay, and so far as can be ascer-
tained is the only one of the species
ever seen In Greeley. 1t was here
last winter. and returned alone this
winter.

meeting after the banquet will be

mind continuously since trying to
find an answer to the question,
what's the matter with Evans?'
While he was still in his knee
breeches his mother planted grape
vine at the back side of the house,
probably more for the purpose Of see
ing something more green than her
hopeful than for any expectation Of
fruit. But the vine for several years
never reached farther than a few half
formed leaves ON dry, stiff looking
stalks. The reason for this was
perhaps the fact that the vine was
planted right under the drip from
the caves and the ground was sour.
One day wise and neighborly old
lady noticed the sickly appearance
of the vine and advised that great
big collection Of old shoes be gath
cred and placed at the roots Of the
vine. This was done and within q
month full growth Of foliage ap-
peared and in the course of a couple
of years, the vine covered nearly the
entire house.
That seems to be about what Evans
needs, a shower OF old shoes, and 1t
might do no harm II q few still con-

money helps our town. If you owl

business man or farmer it is your
duty to leave your money at home,

estimated by one whom i have every
reason to believe is right that nearly
half million dollars was sent out of
Weld county last year to catalogue
houses and Denver retail houses for
merchandise.
Why not keep this money at
home? Your merchant will treat
you better than an outsider; he is
behind all your purchases, to make
good If not found up to the standard.
Ii you are compelled to send money
away for goods not kept by home
merchants. then order through
them. There is nothing made he
cannot get for you and at eastern
prices, thus saving you the express
and having some responsible firm to
deal with. The home merchant
pays more taxes than others to sus-
tain the municipality; the mer-
chants always give literally to city
institutions, churches and other So
cieties and will do as much to boost
Greeley as any other craft or organi-
zation. In fact the merchants are
the backbone Of progress In any
city. Leave your money at home
where it will come back to you.
Every dollar sent away is dollar
lost to this county.

POOR EMPLOYEES
May no Longer Ride on Free
Passes.

No more employees Of the state
department are to have railroad
transportation unless it Is secured
through the heads of the depart
ments. The railroad companies have
so ordered The heads of the depart
ments have sent the word down the
line and it will now be as much as a
clerks position is worth to disobey
the mandate.
The situation reached its climax a
few days ago when the state board
of equalization passed resolution
that transportation out of that office
should be asked for by members of
the board only.
All the clerks in the state house
are on the verge of mutiny over the
new rulings. They claim that it
has been made merely to keep the
pass" privileges in the hands of
the state officials. They assert that
the railroads have shut down on the
amount of transportation to go to
the state house and the new move is
made so that the officials will lose
nothing by the scarcity of passes.
From time out of mind it has
been the prerogative Of the secretary
of the State board of equalization to
get transportation for both himself
and friends. Employees of the other
offices have been in the habit of
asking for transportation for them
selves whenever they desired, and
usually these requests have been
granted and credited to the office
interested
This custom, the clerks claim, has
never been abused and they resent
the arbitrary action of its discontin-
uance.
1t is under stood that the reason
the railroads object is that owing
to the present restrictions on the is
suing of passes, it is not always pos
sible to honor the request of a state
employe. When this is not done.
they say, they are brought in disfavor
in the various departments.
The state officials claim that the
new ruling is a wise one for the rea-
son that every time transportation
is issued on account of an office 1t
puts the head of the office under OBJ
legations to the railroads which are
sometimes embarrassing to meet
