walton for allowing the little 1C
acre burial ground of the soldiers
of old Fort Hays to 60 to rack and
requiring the bodies of the dead
soldiers to be removed. That the
congressman and senators prom
ised in Congress that this cemetery
and graves should be protected
and cared for; = that Congress
gave ali the buildings and also the
free use of 1900 acres of land, yet
the greed for that little 10 acres OF
sacred ground has caused its com
plete neglect, causing continual
complaint and irritation to the

contracted to have the 175 bodies
removed to the National cemetery

should get up remonstrance.

It seems from reading Mulroy's
News the Schaefer-Rich Mulrcy
knockdown IN the Commissioners
room was over ''Free-Press bill.
Treasurer Joe Schaefer started
here as a poor boy, by hard work
and careful and saving in his bu-
sines affairs he is now one of our
substantial citizens. When he ran
for Office he pledged the voters,
if elected, he would run the coun
ty treasHrer's Office SIS careful and
saving as his own affairs, end he
was elected.
That Office uses lots of envelopes
and he found he could get a better
envelope, as well printed and at !
less cost, being same price it was
charging private individuals, at
the Free Press Office than at the
News Office, so got the Free Press
to PRINT 500 and saved the county
and taxpayers money as promised.
The bill has not been rejected,
tho Board will consider it at their
meeting next week when they can
show whether they want the county
officers to save the county money
or help some friend at the cost of
the taxpayers.
AS City Printer the Free Press
has made no kick becau~e the city
has sent east for stereotyped blanks
cheaper than can be done here, il
the city can save money.

A visit to the

FL. HAYS STATE PARK
shows it is improving nicely, the
rows of trees along the driveways
thoroughly cultivated and growing
as well as the evergreens. and the
nursery stock for future planting
showing a thrifty growth, fully
showing that trees, If gwen tho.
rough cultivation, will succeed
without irrigation.
The management should put IN an
east road gate, pillow out the road
way from the present terminus
around the creek bank so the CIT
liens can enjoy the drive.
While many of our citizens regret
that the new dam was not located
within the Park so the people could
have boating and fishing.

Weld County-Beautiful In
terror Finish and Con-
venience

Greeley has some pretty fine homes
for a city of this size. but one will
have to 90 out into Pleasant Valley
ii he wants to see something really
good. 1t is doubtful if there is a
single house in Greeley that in some
ways will equal the home Just COM
pleted by a. y. Lyster, five miles
northeast of the city. There are
some slightly larger houses in
Greeley. but when it comes to the
class OF material, workmanship and
finish they will all fall down by
comparison with this farm mansion.
The house which was built by F.
NJ. Barber of this city, is of COM
manding appearance on the outside,
TWO stories full. basement and attic.
II is now painted an almost white,
whit little dark trimming. The
lines upon which the house is built
are massive rather than delicate, but
everything is upon large scale.

Just What Everyone Should Do.

Mr.. j. T. Barber of Irwinville,
Ga, always keeps bottle of Cham
berlain's Collie, Cholera ard Diarr-
hoea Remedy at hand ready for in
stant use. Attacks of collie, cholera
morbus and diarrhoea come on so
suddenly that there is no time to
hunt a doctor or 60 to the store for
medicine. Mr.. Barber says: Il
have tried Chamberlain's Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy
which is one of the best medicines
l ever saw. l keep bottle of it in
my room as l have had several at
tacks Of collie and it has proved to be
the best medicine l ever used" Sold
by all druggists.
The Greeley tribune., 1905-06-22

There are in all twelve rooms in the
house, not counting basement and
attic, that can both be used for stor-
age purposes.
The house stands facing south in
a grove. from which grand view
can be had of the mountains and the
surrounding country for many miles.
Handsome as is the residence upon
the outside, the interior is still bet
ter. The main entrance leads into a
large square ballroom, that is partly
taken up by winding staircase,
with beautiful oak banister, finish
ed in the natural color of the wood.
Turning to the left as one enters the
hallway, is seen through an archway,
surmounted by handsome bit of
grill work, the music room, and
again to tile right of this, the front
parlor. Immediately back Of this,
and connected with large sliding
doors. is the second parlor. large
airy room, which also opens into the
hall by wide sliding doors. Between
the front parlor and the music room
is also an arch: companion to the
one between the hall and music
room. These four rooms, the hall,
music room and double parlors can
be opened to make practically one
great room, when it is desired to en-
tertain large number of guests.
Back of the hall, on the east side
of the house is the dining room,
which is also very large and airy,
and west of this and pack of the
second parlor is the kitchen and
pantry arranged conveniently with
hot and cold water, supplied by a
home system of water works.
All of the living rooms down
stairs, except the kitchen are finish
ed in beautiful oak, and even now
before the house has received its fur
niture it looks complete and finished.
The second story has six sleeping
rooms and a bath room. There is
also back stairway leading to the
kitchen, besides the main staircase
leading up from the hall Here the
| finish is in the natural pine.
In the basement is the hot watel
heating plant of the house. the en-
tire place being warmed with radi.
ators. There is also a crate anC
mantel in the front parlor, for USE
when it is not yet cold enough t.
start the heating plant.
The house is lighted throughout
with acetyline gas, the plant being
located in a small dugout back Of
the house.
On the place are also farm build.
ings almost as pretentious for their
purpose as the dwelling. Altogether
there is not another farm place is

For Corporal Punishment.

Justice Willard administered a
severe rebuke last Friday to young
men who would strike their fathers.
He fined Max Deubach s25 and costs
and sentenced him to serve two
months in the county jail for strik-
ing his father, Fred Deubach. The
jail sentence was afterward suspended
during good behavior.
The scrap between father and son
is supposed to have grown out of an
effort on the part of the son to hurry
his father out of the house in which
he was living. the son having found
an opportunity to rent the property
at a better figure.

BETTER LIBRARY
City Council Takes Steps III
That Detection.

\ great improvement in the con-
duet of the Greeley library is TO be
made, and the institution given
legal standing, The first step was
taken by the city council last Tues
day evening in placing an ordinance
on its first reading, creating a public
library. under the act of 1899. At
present the library association cam
not accept a gift, even should some
person with philanthropic inclina-
tions desire TO make donation.
With the passage OF this ordinance
all such legal obstacles will be re-
moved. 1t is something more than
limited that public spirited Greeley
citizen is ready to make so substan-
tial a donation to the library, that
il will at once be placed in the
ranks of the very best in the state.
Under the new arrangement also,
instead of the city annually appro-
priating certain sum for the main
tenance of the library, it can be
given a certain per cent of the regu-
lar tax levy. and thus be insured a
better income. The library will
then be under the management OF a
board of directors composed of the
mayor and six citizens, not members
Of the city council.
William Ecker did wholesale
business with the council on con-
tracts for the laying of water mains.

He was awarded all three contracts,
his bids being the lowest.
