JOHNSON FLAYS
HIS OPPONENTS
EMM0NS' DEFENDER GRILLS
ATTORNEYS
Eloquent Lawyer Draws Graphic Pic
lures of Men and Motives and
Scores Seymour With
Withering Invectve
BY Associated Press.

SACRAMENTO, Oct. 10-Grove l..
Johnson was the central figure in the
Emmons trial today. He played upon
the jury with the skill of an accom-
plished musician who touches a chord
that enthralls.
All day long he painted vivid word
pictures for the jurors to look upon
ering invective that poured indiscrim-
inately upon the heads of those who
had taken the initiative in the prose-
"ution of his client.
District Attorney Seymour came in
for his share. Charles r Jones, who
has assisted in the prosecution of the
case, learned that the flaying he re-
ceived at the hands of Lawyer Irwin
was hardly a marker to what was in
store for him; Clarence Grange was
subjected to an analysis that did not
sound we'll; the alleged methods EN-
ployed by Gavin McNab in his high
souled' bribery was held up in re-
r,arkable Colors and had all the
changes in the book rung upon it; Ere
mont Older had his chance with the
attorney: Jordan was held up as some
thing less than a man; but a little
more than Grange, and Hartling and
Tichenor, the detectives, were shown up
ir colors that were anything but flat
tering.
GrilIs Opposing Attorneys
Mr.. Johnson went to his work as
fresh, apparently, as if he had been
resting for the past month instead of
fighting for his client as only he knows
how to fight his points followed each
other with a precision and sequence
that made his story complete in every
detail.
Mr.. Johnson paid 4 high compliment
to Judge Hart for his absolute fairness
in the trial of the case. In this he
voiced his client, Emmons, who after
the testimony was in, personally
thanked Judge Hart for his fairness
to all parties during the trial.
The attorney grilled Charles T. Jones
for the point in his argument touching
uron the domestic affairs of the de-
fendant Mr.. Johnson said he had
known Jones for forty years and in that
time had worked beside and with him
many times. but never, until the
present case. had he known him TO
stoop to pettifogging lige polite court
shyster That was what Mr., Jones
got and District Attorney Seymour
got his package a moment later.
Mr.. Johnson volunteered to tell the
Jury why Mr.. Seymour had taken such
animated interest in the case. which
he said was not the people against En-
mons, but the Continental Building and
Loan association because he whispers
in one ear Folk OF Missouri; into the
other jerome of New York, and both
he cries Governor of California

No Resort Equals GIeRwOOd

Mr.. Nelson Morris, who has visited
all of the principal watering places
and mountain resorts in the cid world

has the best that can be found in the
whole world.
"If Europe had anything to equal

to Live Stock w orld man, "Ameri-

HAVE PROMISES
BEEN MADE s?
The Forestry Department Says No
Promises Have Been Made That
Grazing Fees Would be
Abolished

Considering the discussion now
going on relative to the proposed
government grazing fees on forest
reserves, a letter of inquiry was re-
Gently sent from Glenwood to the for
est service and with the letter a
clipping from the Avalanche stating
that promises had been made that no
fees would be charged on the new re-
serves. The article also stated that
the department had received numerous
protests from all over the West
against the proposed methods of hand
ling the reserves. The Post ls able to
quote from an official letter in reply
dated October 81, which indicates that
the government has we'll defined
plan of action which will not be dis
turbed; at least, that is the construc-
tion the Post would place upon it but
in order that each reader may con-
strue it after his own fashion, we
print the body of the letter which is
as follows:
''There is little foundation for the
newspaper article which you sent in
NO PROMISES HAVE BEEN MADE
THAT GRAZING FEES WOULD
NOT BE CHARGED, and there have
not been numerous protests from all
sections of the West. - 1t is, in fact,
surprising how generally the matter
of charge is acquiesced in by stock
men all over the country; but there
have been some few protests as to the
rates shown in the Use Book, and the
matter of reduction is being seri
ously considered by Mr.. Pinchot.

Rural journalism

The local editor has many things to
chronicle in the course of each year,
with mirth and joy here and sadness
and gloom there; jot of humo1 now
and bit of pathos then. He rejoices
when the stork brings the baby, and
he helps lay the dead to rest when
life's journey is over. He congratu-
lates the bride and groom and sym
pathizes with the bereaved He
praises the worthy, condemns the
wicked, peers into the portals of the
Jail and chips into the contribution
box at church The rich and the
poor, the democrat and the republi-
can, the pious and the sinful all read
the local news and as rule all are
treated well and given oftimes more
praise than they deserve. He keeps
careful tab on the community .and
notes the comings, goings. joys and
sorrows of every member of the local
flock, making known their good for
tune and suppressing their errors and
wrong doiugs. And incidentally he is
the most condemned and poorest paid
individual in the local vineyard -
Ouray Plaindealer.

Violated Game Laws

Last Friday F. A. Gordon went
down to Rifle and placed under arrest
Henry C. Wayne and g. NJ Siprelle,
each having in his possession the car
cass of deer.
They were brought to Genwood
and on Saturday morning given a
hearing before Judge Witten, charged
with having in their possession veni-
son contrary to law.
The men entered plea of guilty
and Judge Dollison appeared for them
stating that they We're poor men and
asking that the court be lenient in
fixing the penalty.
Judge Witten evidently took into
consideration the previous good char.
acter of the men as well as their
financial condition as he fixed the ine
at $35 and costs amounting to $4S. 80
in each case. These amounts were
promptly paid and the men left Satur-
day morning for their homes at Grand
Valley.
Wayne and Siprelle were first ap-
pretended by Billy Richards near the
half way station between Meeker and
Rifle Richards phoned Gordon who
intercepted them at Rifle. They had
been peddling fruit in the White and
Bear River valleys and the officers say
either killed the deer themselves out
of season or traded fruit for them.

THE BEAUTIES
OF California
An Interesting Description Of Some
of the Historic Settlements
in the Golden Gate
Country

One of the most interesting fea-
lures in travelling from San Francis
co to San Diego is the old mission
buildings of California lying broken
and deserted in the endless sunshine
beneath matchless sky.
Perhaps the underlined thing which
we cannot understand about these
missions is the secret of their great
success combined with that of their
total failure. Southern California,
and corners. In these hooks the Or
iginal Spaniard seems very generally
to have nestled. The peace which
to some degree may come in life, was
never in this world nearer its idealiza
tion than at San Juan Ca pistrano,
three fourths of century ago. 1t
cannot be put into words or painted
or sent by mail, but something of
it broods there still. Men cannot
make it or entirely destroy it. 1t
is in the air, and to supplement it
and to add to it, is the feeling that
the past has not yet quite gone away.
The dust lies thick in the village
streets and in it one almost looks to
find the prints of sandals. There is
a quiet beauty often lowering over
decay and ruin, and no locality is
subject to such spell as an old
church. The quaintness to American
eyes. of what remains, cannot we'll be
put into words. We never made any
thing like it and never shall. We
have never in single instance come
as nearly as these missionary monks
did to the suiting of building to
the surrounding landscape. 1t is an
indefnable thing which cannot be
fixed by rule, and one does not know
wherein precisely the appropriateness
consists. 1t fits its place among the
vastnesses of wilderness that can
never be really changed by any effort
of civilization. But when you are
gone again, if you have seen the coun-
try all right, your mental picture will
be completest when you remember
Capistrano sitting upon its knoll and
looking down the glen to its speck of
sky blue sea. One of the strongest
individualities on earth is the Span
ish. Among all the newness of Amer
lean life he retains his adobe corner
unimpaired, alone, apart, separate
and Individualized. 1t is 80 in Santa
Fe or Albuquerque or Ell Paso, and
SO also, in the obscure nook, he still
retains in the beautiful city. which
is except in name the very opposite
of everything Spanish in Los Angeles
itself. Whoever would understand
aught of these bygone days which
placed on this continent the quaint
ness of Spanish peasant life, must
come quickly il he wishes to judge
by that surest index, the homes of the
people. Yet the country and sim
plicity remain. and from nothing
greater, might we obtain some idea
of the, social life in the California of
the old times.
Considering the church alone, the
mission of Santa Barbara is perhaps
the best preserved of all the estab
lishments of the original Franciscaus.
Seven or eight of the brethren are
gathered here, no. as relics or remind
ers OF the eventful past. hut simply as
frlars of their order, pursuing their
own way to the final exchange from
brown to white. Here a splendid
little city has grown up around her

POSiOffiCe Burqhrized

The Glenwood postoffice was again
hurglarized last Monday night but ii
proved poor haul as Miss Williams
past experience along this line had
resulted in all surplus change and
postage stamps being placed in the
bank each evening before closing. In
gress was made through a rear win
dow from which the thieves had
removed the screen. About $3 in
email change, principally pennies,
constituted the sum total of the haul.
No trace of the identity of the perpe-
traitors has yet been discovered.

JOSEPH 5. SWAN
IS NO MORE
SuCcumbed to Grim Reaper at His
Home in Debeque Last SUM-
day nornIng After d
Long Illness
MASONIC FUNERAL IN GLtNWOOD

Joseph s. Swan, for many years {
resident of Garfield county, died al
10 O. clock last Sunday morning at his
home in Debeque, Colorado. surround
ed by his family and several intimate
friends.
The death of Mr. Swan came not al
aa surprise to either his family or his
friends, as he had been dangerously
i'll several months ago and although
he partially recovered and was recent
ly seen on the streets of Gleuwood,
death was written in his countenance
and old time friends who saw him re-
marked to each other that Joe Swan
would very soon answer the great
summons.
MIR. Swan was born in Clifton, Sta
ten Island, N. Y. September %,
1855. He came to Colorado in 1880
and settled in Red Cliff. From 1881
to 1882 was assessor of Summit coun-
ty, was deputy clerk of Eagle county
under E. F. Campbell in 1888, when
he and MIR. Campbell got up the first
set of abstract books for that county.
In 1884 Mr.. Swan came to Garfield
county and located ranch on Battle
ment Mesa. The following year he
established and became proprietor of
the "Ute Chief democratic news
paper published in Glenwood Springs.
In 1887 he was appointed receiver of
the o. S. land office under Grover
Cleveland.
The year of his appointment as re-
ceiver of the land Office he was united
in marriage to Ella M. Stevenson. OF
this union two daughters and the be-
loved wife survive.
In 1897 Mr.. Swan was appointed
state game commissioner by Governor
Adams and in this capacity he served
the state two years. Several years
ago Mr.. Swan also was nominated on
the state democratic ticket for audit
or. going to defeat with the rest of
the party, before the tidal wave of
populism.
About four years ago Mr.. Swan
promoted company that began drill
ing for oil at Debeque. At com
paratively slight distance in the
ground he struck crude oil and then
began wave of excitement that
passed throughout the entire state.
Mr. Swan worked most faithfully to
maintain the excitement and bore
deeper and more fully, but for some
reason or other i'll success followed
his every effort in that direction. He
stood nobly by the work and it may
be said that this final great business
struggle was responsible for his sick
ness, for the sti uggle to maintain
interest in the oil question was a hard
one. but Mr.. Swan never faltered in
his belief that Debeque would eventu-
ally be large oil center.
Besides the oil promotion enterprise
into which Mr. Swan threw all his
energy he has for several years been
the editor and publisher of the De,
beque Bugle. He was fearless and
forceful writer and in his editorial
work spared neither friend or foe
whose conduct he considered repre-
hensible.
The deceased was Knight TEN
plar, Mystic Shriner, being mem
ber of El Jebe Temple of Denver
and a member of the Woodmen of the
World.
The remains we're brought to Glen
wood Tuesday morning and escorted
by guard of Masons to the Masonic
hall where at O'Clock the funeral
was held, the Masonic ritualistic ser
vice being used. Interment was in
Rosebud cemetery.
