Good Advice.

Part of the report of the manager OF
the Grand Junction Fruit Growers as
sociation is reproduced in the news col
umns for the benefit of our fruit grow
ers.
It's always well to watch how people
in other localities do things.
Mr.. Moore makes some suggestions
that should be acted upon by growers
in this county.
Mr.. Moore's experience ought to be
good. He handled this year over 900
cars of fruit, selling it for $537 POI.
He urges the fruit growers of Grand
Junction:
To IMPROVE THE PACK, and the Grand
Junction pack is already the best in the
state-far better than ours.
To fertilize more.
To prune and thin the orchards.
To pull out the summer apples and
poor varieties, replanting with good,
commercial stock.
To build a canning plant.

Ousht To Be Paid.

Colorado owes a floating debt Of
100000.
A large part of this is held by the
school fund, but about 800, 200 is in
warrants held by investors, many of
them in the East. And this don't in
elude any part Of the military debt for
the late war.
This indebtedness has been running
for many years. 1t is, more or less, a
debt of honor and ought to be paid.
In his recommendation retiring State
Treasurer Whitney Newton says:
"This apparent dishonored debt is a
great blow at Colorado's credit, and
should be paid unde any circumstances.
1t would cost citizen of Denver but
one-sixteenth additional to his present
taxes for one year to pay the debt held
by the public. This debt should, how
ever, be met by per cent. bond is
sue. which would make it very light
burden.

Is Therea

Is there harm in stealing from a
thief?
You know the Democratic party
tried to steal the Governorship. No
one can read the evidence in even the
Denver News without being convinced
of that fact.
If they didn't get in enough fraudu-
lent votes to overcome any legi innate
plurality it wasn't lack of intention-it
was miscalculation.
In most places Democracy is a fairly
good party; better, far better, than
most other parties, (barring one, of
course, but in Denver it is rotten. 1t
would steal any thing.
So it is granted that Denver Democ-
racy stole, or made an honest effort to
steal, the Governorship.
And now Democracy says the Repub.
iicans propo. to steal the Governor
ship.

FUEL OIL.

On cur recent trip to Portland
we discovered that fuel oil is very
extensively used on the Pacific
coast and is fast growing in favor.
Almost all the coast and river
steamers are using it. They find it
not only cheaper but much more
convenient to handle and that it
makes more even, constant heat
which is easily controlled.
The Regulator, one of the large
passenger and freight vessels on tie
Columbia river, on which we took
passage, belonging to the Oregon
Railway and Navigation Co. has
been fitted with oil burners for about
two and half years.
1t was the first on the river to
adopt the oil. Now every vessel
doing business on the Columbia
burns oil. They burn the California
crude just as it comes from the well
for which they pay 75c per barrel.
The Regulator makes regular trips
from Portlant to the Dalles, up one
day and down the next. This is a
distance of 22o miles for the round
trip. They use two twenty-four
horse power engines and consume.
on an average 81 barrels of crude
oil for the round trip.
I'll y claim to save $40 per day
by using oil instead of coal.
We stood in front of big boiler
on this boat and noted the tremend
Gus heat generated. 1t was some
thing terrific.
For our benefit the fireman open
ed the furnace door. We stood our
ground for a short time until be-
tween gasps we could tell him thai
would do. The results were we die
not need shaving for week.
All this brought to our mind the
possibilities of the Kansas oil. Thi.
California oil is of very low grade,
much lower than our lowest.
Vt seems to me we are not wide
awrke to the possibilities of our fue
oil or we would be equipping ou'
| mills, our elevators, foundries ma
chine shops etc. with the oil burners
and thus establish an ever growinE
market for Kansas crude oil for fue
purposes.
If some Of our big oil producer:
would take the matter up and show
the consumer what a great anc
economical fuel this oil makes, &
wonderful trade could soon be es
tablished and very profitable mar
ket built up for our surplus oil.
THIS surely would be vastly better
than sitting around waiting on the
good Will and pleasure of the Stan
dard Oil Co.

GAINING A MARKET

Whatever trade agreements were
made with European countries, the
American farmer could never sell
his wheat abroad so long as it re-
NAMED "dollar wheat" The for
.ign masses cannot pay for "dollar
wheat" When that is the price
they 60 without our breadstuffs for
the reason that they have not the
price. That is why exports Of
oreadstuffs have not mounted along
with others until our foreign trade
is the greatest in the world.
The only possible way the recip-
rocity boomers can send up our ex-
ports of breadstuffs will be to send
down the price. Is the farmer
looking for any such solution2 And
the boomers can serd down the
price of our farm products very
quickly, as was done before, by
revising the Tariff and incidentally
revising out of their employment
American wage-earners who now
make the rich market where the
farmer sells his products at his pro-
fitable prices. When the American
consumers-the great mass of them
are again in the position of the
foreign consumers, when they can
not afferd to buy, when the Ameri-
can market has been knocked in
head with a club, then the demand
for American breadstuffs abroad
will manifest itself; not for "dollar
wheat" but for 5o-cent or accents
wheat. And wheat will be at so or
40 cents again because, the home
consumer failing to buy for lack of
the money with which to buy, the
market will sink to the old level
where the farmer burned what he
raised, since it was not worth while
to haul it out of the fields.
1t the American farmers wish to
mark down the price of all their
products to one-half of what they
now get for them, they should in
struct their representatives in Con-
gress to make some reciprocal trade
agreenents-tariff revisions-which
will let the food of foreign goods
into this country to close our mills
and factories. That 10 what the
Reciprocity Beef Trust-TAurbers
want to do-to sway a dollar mar
ket for a so-cent market for the
