PRESS COMMENT.

Governor Ferguson. IN watonga RE-
rublican Recently the Guthrie Leader
contained communication from Enid
which made an attack upon the present
governor Of the territory. It was as
malicious as It was false. The name OF
the person who sent Il was not given,
but to those acquainted with the politi-
cal conditions ir the territory the source
OF the communication was eslsily deter
mined II we do not guess wrong, the
person who wrote it Cor az least in
spirod 10 is now under nre. charged
with grating once upon a time. Wait
until the matter works TO the surface,
and see II this statement Is not correct.
Lawton Democrats The Guthrie
Leader Is now publishing the evidence
taken IN the sanitarium scandal inves-
tigation three years ago which was
suppressed by the republican politicians.
IL makes rich. rare and juicy reasing.
Enid Events: The Guthrie Leader
publishes the testimony OF Joe MeNeal
gefore the legislative investigating COM
mittee. in which McNeal says that
Flynn owned $1,000 and Grimes $4,000
Of stock in the Norman sanitarium. The
evidence also tended to show that there
was a great deal more stock held by
them. but held In other names. Nc
Neal was on the inside OF the transac-
tlon relative 70 the institution, acting
as financial agent in many of the deals.
McNeaI also showed that the profits OF
the sanitarlum amounted 10 about a
hundred per cent on the Investment.
Does anyone wonder that Grimes could
not be reappolnted as secretary, and
that the president has lost all confidence
and political respect for Mr.. Flynn.
when ne knows all the facts connected
with the sanitarium?
Lawton Constitution; Il is almost an
open secret that Oklahoma city does not
want statehood OF any kind Probably
II bill were 20 be framed making
them capital concentrating the fed
eral courts at that point, and establish
ing all the land offices Of Oklahoma
within her municipal borders she might
be pacined to some extent. II = hardly
to be presumed. however. sho1 even
an this be done. and solely upon the
efforts OF Delegate Mcclure. that the
Ohahoman would feel just right next
day II it did not make some mean att
tack.
oklahoma city Times-JournaE The
Guthrie Leader says 1he people Of okla
homa city hate the people Of Guthrie
and that they take advantuge OF every
opportunity TO DO the people Of Gmhrls
an injury These charges are ulfound-
cd. There S. no in viii here toward the
people of Guthrie. I'm fact scores OF
the bcst people in This city came from
Guthrie and have prospercd to such an
oxtent that they feel nothing but dnd
ness for the people With whom the'
once lived Nothing has soured the peo
nlo of dis city Or filled them with enYl
and thcy therefore look on She peoph
of ail cities and towns as friends Th'
Leader bias struggled long and hard q

pie OF Guthrie for those 0f oklahom.

Blessed.

Blessed are the defrauded who smile
and go their way In peace, for they
have entered into knowledge.
Blessed are the. hungry who are
hungry enough to find the dinner
where God has spread 1t.
Blessed are they who do not keep
awake at night IN expectation OF to-
morrow's bad news. These shall have
good news instead Of bad.
Blessed are they who can give their
ncIghbors lift without being dragged
Into the pit with them. Such are the
saviors Of the world.
Blessed are they whos not knowing
that which seemeth necessary to know,
are willing to walt until they find out.
blessed are they who eau trace the
processes Of progress even among the
laggers and the strayers-better known
as sinners. These are possessed Of the
vision Of God. - Eleanor Kirk.

The actics OF the apple contractors
who come out from the east to g0bble
up our fruit are often quite as amusing
as fairy tules. Plenty Of buyers come
around early every season apparently
for no other purpose than to tell us
that the crop in the east Is SO tremend-
ously large and Surprisingly fine that
they do not want to buy any Colorado
apples lin fact do not need them.
They seem to have it arranged finely
among themselves aud when the grow,
ers become alarmed and are anxious to
sell they suddenly turn turtle and buy
everything In sight. Every contract
made fn Colorado tffus far is cafe oil
first base for the buyer Field and
Farm.
Asa usual thing two years is as long
as q strawberry bed can be maintained
with the best profit. The fifst year Of
fruiting VIM give the largest fruit, the
second the greatest quantity and then
vigor dfminislies. The rows become
too crowded to admit the growth of
new plants while weed multiply and
are dinlcult to control. For these rea-
sons 1t Is best to plow up the bed after
the removal Of the second crop. A new
bed shonld be set each year and an old
one plowcd up. Following the pIow-
Ing Of an old bed the laud should be
used for one season for some other crop,
or It is possible to meet good results by
sowing with some soillng crop as soon
as plowed, this is to be turned under In
the fall Many eastern growers find
greatest profit In the practice Of taking
but one crop. The plants are set In
August, fruited the next June and
then turned under, but here in Colo
RADIO our people allow their beds to run
three and fur years.

SATURDAY, JANUARY 14, 1905

THE NEWS has been trying to impress upon it's readers for the past year or more that there have been some things doing in county affairs that do not look altogether right from a distance We do not refer to the action of H. c. Hibben with regard to his fees, as his arti- cle on the last page of this issue shows that he has been and still is acting in good faith. However, as both the district attorney and the recorder are anxious to have suit brought to settle for all time the question regarding the fees, no one will be hurt. We may say further that now the district attorney has started the ball rolling he will no doubt look into the manner in which the business of the office of the board of supervisors has been conducted during the past two years. Like the investigation in the re- corder's office, if everything is all right, no one will be injured; but there seems to have been so much business transacted by the board during the past two years, of which no record appeared in the minutes, that people feel they have a right to know about it. The law says the board shall publish their every action, and as a sample we might mention the Navajo Indian Inves- tigation" case. While Mir. Cornish was in Washington MT. Martin told us that when Cornish returned the minutes would contain a report of the boards action, together with an itemized statement of all expendi- lures in the investigation. When the minutes were published the proceedings contained the following full and complete report: "Cash, Indian extension investigation, $9S1.70." The minutes are for the purpose of telling the people where their money goes, but it is such itemizing as the above that has given rise to the many rumors in circulation. We would further like the district attorneys opinion on the item appearing in the boards minutes of Dec. 30, 1904: "Thos. A. Flynn, ex. duplicate rolls, 1903 and 1904, $2OO.OO."

During our absence the NEWS and its destinies will be looked after by MT. Frank L. Moore, who will also have charge of the job printing department. So dc not hesitate to bring in your job work as of old. You need not hesitate to pay any bills you may owe, either, as he will probably need all the money he can collect. If you know any news items, by dropping around to the office and giving him the hint you will not only confer a personal favor to the writer, but will materially aid in making the paper more newsy.

"OUT OF THE OLD
 INTO THE NEW"
Grand Canyon. Jan. II.

About the time this writing sees the light of day, on Saturday, Jan uary 14th. Bright Angel Hotel will be closing it's doors to the travel ing public, probably for all time. On that date breakfast will be the closing and last meal served. The guests remaining over that day will move a little further east on the rim, and take up their abode in the new hotel, Fl Tovar, which opens that same day and serves lunch for the first meal. The lucky guests who happen to be here at that time will have the pleasure and also the novelty of seeing the closing of the old and opening of the new hostelry.
 Nearly four years ago MT. and Mrs. Buggeln became host and hostess of Bright Angel, and the many thousands of visitors since then will have memories of the kindly attentions accorded them by MT. and Mrs. Buggeln. The lat ter says the happiest time of her life has been that spent here. Mir. Ferrall had charge of the curio and in this position had plenty of room to display his artistic taste, and he was ably assisted by Mrs. Ferrall. MT. Strait was cashier and room clerk and always treated the pat rons with courtesy and kindness. Mrs. Strait was ever ready to make all feel at home, and pleasantly helped to entertain. Mir. John F. Shea, the manager of Bright Angel Hotel after successful career in that capacity, will at the closing of his house, become connected with the Harvey System again, and have the position of cashier at the new hotel. Connected with the E! Tovar is a picture room which is distinct from the curio. This room will be pre- sided over by Mrs. Minsur, who was formerly in the post office at Bright Angel.
 The little station has once more been moved. If it had a few les sons in walking, it might be taught to walk whereverit might be needed. It looks rather disconsolate as the men load it on to push car. It has been moved several times.
 The Grand View stage office is soon to follow.
 Kolb Brothers returned to the Canyon this week and look as if they had enjoyed their visit at home.
 Mrs. Smith, wife of the manager of Grand View hotel, with her sister, Miss Kelsy, were visitors here for several days last week.
