THE ADVANCE IN SILVER.
Causes of the Rise in Price-May Go
to 65 or 20 Cents.


Without doubt the stability of the
price of the white metal and the cause
of it climbing over the 6O-cent mark,
has been the act of the Mexican
Government in placing gold
value of so cents on the Mexican
miled dollar. This simple announce
ment caused the price to reach the 60
cent mark, and the fact that Mexico
is to borrow $40, 600, 900 in gold, to form
a reserve fund with which to protect
the value of the dollar. was a cause
which contributed to the further as
cendancy of silver. The fact that
China is allied with the Mexican Gov
ernment, and that she is purchaser of
Mexican dollars at the increased price,
and the decision of the Indian Council
of London to make purchases of silver
at stated intervals. have all had the ef-
feet Of causing the Price to rise, aud it
will not be surprising to see silver
quoted at 65 cents per ounce in the near
future. while 20 cents is possibility

Attorneys representing the var
ious ditch companies of the Arkan-
sas Valley had a meeting in Denver
one day this week for the purpose
of discussing plans of opposition to
the proposal of the Otero Irrigation
District to change the point of di-
version Of 92 cubic feet of water,
which they have acquired by pur-
chase. from Chaffee county TO Otero
county. Fred A. Sabin is the attor-
ney for the Otero Irrigation District
and has been engaged for several
months in perfecting the details of
the transfer. Clyde c. Dawson. of
Canon City. has been employed by
the ditch companies of Fremont and
Chaffee counties To represent their
interests in the fight.
Judge Dixon recently gave a de-
cision in similar suit for the trans
fer of water rights in favor Of the
the C. +. a. l.. and Notwithstanding
the fact that the case has been ap-
pealed to the supreme court. that
company is now spending millions Of
dollars in building canal to
carry the water acquired to their
big plant in Pueblo. In the c. +.
& l. case the point of diversion was
changed up the river. while in the
Otero Irrigation District suit it will
be changed down the river from
Chaffee To Otero county. The Otero
case will come up in the district
court Of Chaffee county in January.
and there is hardly a question Of
doubt but that the irrigation dis
trict will win as number Of similar
suits have been decided the way
this one should be. in various parts
Of the state. With these acquired
water rights the Otero Canal will he
the very best irrigation enterprise
in the Arkansas Valley. without a
single exception. II would take an
expert statistician To figure out the
resulting benefits to La Junta in the
event of the water rights being
transferred. for it will mean that
500 acres Of land contiguous to
to La Junta will be settled up by
thriving agricultural population and
made to bloom and blossom as the
rose with sugar beets. cantaloupes
and alfalfa.

requested in every city visited leads
one to believe that this is one Of
those good wholesome plays which
will live for years and endear them
selves to the public by repetition.
Wherever possible return dates
were arranged. and il is extremely
gratifying TO record that the at
tendance and receipts were in
creased in every instance. The pub
lie Is not slow to appreciate a meri-
r. rious theatrical attraction. and is
always willing to bestow its patron
age upon one which has proved
worthy of il. Nor are the people
clamoring for noisy or risque plays.
as some managers appear To think.
for the enthusiasm which grects the
return of Sweet Clover" in every
city proves beyond doubt that
