brated by the lodges in the local juris-
diction, in Wilmington, on the even
ing of October 9th.
The celebration, which will be un-
der the auspices of the Wilmington

elaborate ever attempted. In the ear
ly part of the evening there will be a
parade, participated in by members of
the lodges in that jurisdiction, after
which the entire party will go to Turn
Hall, where the degree team of Will
mington Lodge will perform initiatory
work. The First Infantry Band will
head the parade, and there will be an
ample supply of red fire and other py-
rotechnics.
An entertainment will follow the in
itiatory work in Turn Hall, at which
addresses will be made by some of the
supreme officers. Negotiations are
now pending for the speakers, and il

nent local members.

ton are being made by the following
committee of Wilmington Lodge
Charles NJ. Banks, chairman; Franz
P. Lackey. Joseph Schunder, Thoma:
Donahue and J. Albert Olieer.
1t is expected that on that occasion
there will be several lodges from othe
parts of the jurisdiction there in thei

New Bridges

Lamar Register.
The state engineer let the con
tracts for Prowers county's two
new bridges on last Saturday aud
the bidding was spirited both as
to prices and time limit, and both
of these points We're taken int.
consideration in letting the con-
tracts.
TIE Pueblo Bridge Co was the
winner of both contracts. At
Morse they bid S. Is per fyot and
agreed to complete the work in 65
days. This will insure the COM
pletion of the work before the
beet hauling season is more than
two or three weeks old and will
be a great boon for the many
farmers now raising beets north
of the Morse siding. The stale
app opliat for the bridge will
be sufficient to pay all the costs
Of the bridge aud also for making
the approaches.
At Holly the Pueblo Bridge Co.
had the lowest bid bu, one, but rs
they agreed to complete the woIk
in GS days while the other com.
pany wanted FIVE months, the con
tract went TO them at So 80 per
foot. The commissi onels will
agree upon the loca ion this week
and the right of way for the road
will be donated. The bridge here
will be longer than at Morse and
the state appropriation is not so
large as at Morse go the county
will have the balance to pay.
The county is certainly fortu-
nate in getting these two much
needed bridges at SO small cost
to the taxpayers, and with con-
tracts for completion at such eur
ly dates.

The Sugar Beet Crop.

According to the Beet Sugar
Gazette. the latest estimates show
that Colorado leads all of the
states in sugar beet acreage this
year. the total area planted in this
crop being 9f,2GO acres. 1t is
predicted that the 1905 crop will
ngyre gate $4,000 long tons of beet
sufficient to make 127,000 long
tons of su gar. Michigan and Cal
lfornia come next in acreage, but
they are far below Colorado in tn
estimated yield, experts placing
Michigan nearly one half and Cal
ifoinia one-tLird below this state.
Colorado will have three moie
teet sugar factories this year than
ia 1904. There is new plant at
Holly with capacity of 600 tons
daily, 500 ton plant at Lamar,
which has been moyed to that
pltce from Norfolk, Nebraska, and
600 ton plant at Sterling which
WAS brought there from Saginaw,
Michigan. This moving of bee,

to Colorado is 81 ign ficlni, for it
shows the greater poss biIitIts of
the industry here. Both Michi-
gan AID Nebraska were gagged

supposed that the vegetable could

but now the Centennial state ie

Last year Colorado occupied
first place in the beet sugar pro
!uction of the United Stttes, and
crop conditions are now SO favor
alb that it is virtually certain I,
be first this year in the yield Of
beets also. Michig III and Nebraska
still lead in the number of factor
les, but Colorado may be ahead i'll
slicing capacity, because of the
addition of the new plants and
the increased capacity Of the ol !
ones.
Considering the short time since
the establishment of the industry
in this state this is remarkable
showing. Michigan and Nebraska

cades, but it is only six years aga

THE DISASTER ON THE ELEVATED.

That immunity from serious disaster, which for twenty-seven
years had been enjoyed by the elevated railroads of New York, was
broken yesterday, when by the plunging of a car on the Ninth avenue
line into the street, twelve persons were killed and half a hundred
injured. Mshaps there had been before-collions and derailnents-
but none approaching in the number of lives DESTROYED or injuries in
hGed, the terrible happening Of yesterday morning. 1t cannot be said
. this sad catastrophe was unexpected. Indeed during the nearly three
decades since the elevated system began operation, a system under
which more trains ire run within an hour than on any other railroad
in the world, there has been frequent, almost daily speculation a to
what would happen if a swiftly moving car should be preciptated
from the rails to the street below.
Just tina. thing happened yesterday and the result is told in the
gruesome record of the slaughtered and manned. At first glance
the operation of passenger trains on an elevated structure gives an
should fall?' But elevated trains seldom fall, for care and skill in
construction and alertness and precision in operation have made the
raised way quite as secure as the surface road. Nor S it going beyond
to life, to limb and to property from the running of electric cars on
structure.
1t is only when caution is relaxed and carelessness replaces it,
when sound Judgment fees and error steps in, that the peril of height
becomes dominant and leads to disaster that appols. AS yet it is
impossible to say just how was brought about a state of things that
sent a Ninth avenue train, running at the rate of thirty miles an hour,
on to the sharp curve at the junction with the Sixth avenue line, when
the motorman supposed he would have a straight track before him.
In this connection blame is placed by one theory upon the switchnan
and by another theory upon the motornan.
But whoever may ultimately be found to be responsible, the fact
will remain that the accident was due primarily to the always immi-
nent element of human fallibiity. This lamentablc fatality is but an
other proof that in the last resort safety in railway operation is de-
pendent upon the factors of a mans keenness of eye, of his good judg-
ment of his fidelity, and of his presence Of mind. When any one Of
these elements is lacking the trusting thousands that fill the shutting
cars travel in the shadow of death.

K

A caucus is a preliminary gathering of the voters of a party
The principles OF a party arc announced in conventions and candi-
dates are as a general rule selected by conventions. 1t is sclf-evident
therefore that a political organization has a right to say who consti-
tute its membership and who shall exercise the functions of member
ship.
The supreme court so decided in the matter Of supervisors for
Block Island a couple of years ago. The work of those outside a
political party who are striving 10 say who shall be considered mem
bers can meet only with contempt on the part Of men interested in
the success OF a partys principles. For a good while the Repub-
means o uis city have had their members enrolled and only Repub-
Means under the law can vote at a Republican caucus. This is right.
because only members OF that party can be interested in the work Of
The party conventions.
Now there IS no reason why the Socialist Labor party OF the
Prohibition party or any other political organization should not
follow the same course. The law should be strictly enforced at the
coming caucuses and in that way the work OF known political traders
and traitors will be nulihed.
