The tax payers of Delta county do
not want to call grand jury at cost
of several thousand dollars simply to
crafty the spleen of genuine knocker
and CRATER. If any evidence whatever
can be gathered that would warrant
this expense. then it will be time to
resort to such measures. The tax
payers are now paying for grand jury
that was called two years ago. In that
case the county was greatly benefited,
while in this, at the time being there
is nothing known that would give any
excuse for such costly action.

The Paonia Newspaper never misses
a chance to copy the items referring to
Delta taxes published by the yellow
journal but the Newspaper has not
said anything about Paonia taxes be-
ing higher than any other section of
Delta county. The fact is both Delta
and Paonia have made notable improve
ments during the past year, as progress
sive towns should, and these things
must be paid for by the people of the
sections where such improvements are
made. There is no one in Paonia who
has such little sense or such thorough
bred knocker that they continually
howl because improvements that have
been inaugurated must be paid by the
people.

T. .e North Fork Times man, whom
we recently accused Of being tender
foot, comes back at US and claims a
residence of seventeen years in the
state of Colorado. Well, there may
be some one connected with that paper
who has been stuck up in the mud in
this state for seventeen years, but
don't tell US that the ''article" that is
at prcseut doing the strong talk on the
Times is anything but a late acquisition
from Posey county, Hooppole township,
Indiania. He also wants to know how
long it takes for a tenderfoot's hoofs
to harden in this happy cline. Accord
ing to our humble opinion, there is no
chance for one who is as softheaded as
he evidently is, to ever have their feet
harden sufficiently to be classed as any
thing but tenderfoot in this or any
other section Of the country.

There is few sap-heads in the
county who are making roar because
the county commissioners compromised
the taxes of the D. & R. G. railroad
company. Well, suppose they had re-
fused to compromise and not only failed
to get what they did from that company
but had spent big amount of money
collected from other sources trying to
collect it. In that case these sore-
heads, who talk about what should be
done would be bowling themselves
hoarse because the county's funds had
bsen squandered.

An Absen..m,nded Man.

Mortimer Smith was late in Joining
an opera party on Wednesday night,
and in explanation of his delay told
the following story:
"You know Sampson. of course" no
said. well. 1t was his fault. Fine
fellow, but terribly absent-minded.
I've Just been to his house. He
won't be out for a week. Got run
over and kicked by horse this aft
ernoon.
II said he was absent-minded, but
what do you think Of this? About 4
O'Clock this afternoon he drove down
Fifth avenue in a runabout to which
Earshall's Chestnut colt was hitched.
He meant to go to the garage and get
Ills car. That colt Of MarshaIl's is a
peculiar animal. Lots Of style, but
has habit Of acting queerly. It was
the first time that Sampson had been
behind horse since. he took to mo-
toring. Near Sherry's the colt stopped
and wouldn't go step farther. Samp-
son got out Of the rig and crawled
under the runabout with a monkey
wrench in one hand and an oil can in
the other. don't know whether he
tried to screw up the colts hoofs or
put gasoline on his coronet, but when
they picked Sampson up he was .

and cured with Electric Betters. This
is a pure, tonic medicine; of especial
benefit in malaria, for it exerts a true
curative influence on the disease, driv-
ing it entirely out of the system. 1t is
much to be preferred to quinine, hav-
ing none of this drugs bad after ef-
fects. E. S. Munday, of Henrietta,

Doctor Rowan, the representative
from Ouray county has introduced a
bill to repeal the law requiring the
counties to treat the "drunks" at the
Keeley institute at the expense of the
public. The bill has passed the second
reading and will likely be enacted. The
law has proven to be a big graft for
the Kelley institute, but has at the
same time reduced the crop of drunks.

One of the witnesses before the con-
test committee in Denver is an ex-con-
vict and for that reason the Demo-
Gratis claim that his evidence. should
not be credited. Yet this same
known convict was commissioned as a
special policeman on election day and
was decorated with star. Now they
do not think that the statement that
he voted number of times should be
credited.

The question naturally arises as to
what shall be done with the bunch of
fellows who are now going on the stand
in Denver and swearing they are re-
peaters. Is it possible that they can
go free or is it systematic effort by
them to break into the state penitenti-
ary? 1t is easy enough to see why
they repeated-that was money con-
sideration, but why do they volunteer
as witnesses against themselves?

The Paonia Booster, in last week s
issue, makes very weak effort to de-
fend its political record. Although the
Booster claims to be ''it," the only Re-
publican paper in Delta county, we have
recently taken them to task for utter
ances made during the recent political
campaign. This paper would have never
given them away, however, if it hadnot
zen for the bombastic manner in which
they were claiming to be the only Re-
publican paper in Delta county. We
are willing to give the Booster people
all that is coming to them, but when il
comes to couple of "hlacksmith kids
jumping out and claiming that they are
all there is to it, then we register a
kick. While the Booster replies with
a long harangue it makes no effort to
explain the statement that appeared in
its columns just after the county ticket
was nominated last fall. would, at
least like tosee this utterance explained.
When paper comes out and states that
it will only support their ticket "just SO
far as they can consistently do Sc they
should have Judgement enough to wait
until their tracks get cold before want
ing to "back in" and3 take charge OF
the whole works.

The North Fork Times looks like a
second edition of the Laborer these
days, the Times takes it second handed
.however-both of these sheets look
alike to us. 1t is not often that two
fools of this stupendous type are to be
found in one little Colorado county, in
twenty miles of each other.

The actions Of the present legisla

The actions Of the present legisla-
ture will, in great measure determine
the future of the Republican party in
this state. If their actions are such
as to inspire the confidence of the pee
pie of the state there is reason to be-
lieve that the Republicans will control
the state permanently. The Demo-
cratic rule for the past few years has
stirred the people of Colorado to great
watchfulness in public affairs, conse-
quently all eyes are turned on the party
in power.
