Speak Well of
Canon Newspaper

The meeting of the Arkansas Valley
Press association in Canon City last
Friday was not SO largely attended as
it would have been had not the inclem-
ent weather, which extended through
out the state to the Kansas line pre-
vailed. 1t was an interesting gather
ing of the pencil pushers and was not
without its benefits to the members of
the association and the craft, The
Canon City editors are an entertain
ing bunch and they made it most pleas
ant for the visitors, only one feature,
that of taking the drive through the
blossoming apple orchards, being omit
ted and this was due to the fact that
the weather would not permit The
banquet of the Canon City Merchants
association, attended by the editors,
was delightful social function. The
toasts were given by leading business
men and the Importance Of advertising
was made more prominent by them
than by the newspaper men. srhe whole
affair proved pleasant and profitable to
the writer, and we will not miss any
opportunities to attend any such occa-
sions in the future, especially when
they are to be held in Canon City, the
beautiful.-Silver Cliff Rustler.

Distinguished Honors.

The awarding of the first honors to
Miss Lola Hobson of South Canon as
essayist at the interscholastic literary
contest at Boulder last week, and the
fact that George Haddon of the Canon
City schools tied with Bruce Gustin OF
Colorado Springs for first'place in the
oratorical contest are matters in which
the community may well take pride.
There was much competition for these
honors and they are more keeniy ap-
preciated on that account.
The awards were made by COM
mittee in no wise influenced by favor
itism, merit alone being the basis upon
which its judgement wasErendered.
The best high school talent of the state
entered the lists for supremacytand to
have achieved success is greatly to the
credit of those who won. Miss Hob
son had an excellent essay, the title of
which was National Advertisement,
and the graceful, almost faultless,
manner of its delivery inspired general
praise and commendation.
The triumphs Of Miss Hobson and
Mr.. Haddon at Boulder last Friday
night are more than personal, they re-
fleet the high character of the work
done in the schools they represent and
for that reason they too should be fell
citated upon the culture and scholar
ship displayed by these two young

Canon City And Its
Energetic Business Men

The very successful first annual. ban
ouet of the Canon City Merchants As
sociation was Hattering indication of
the spirit that pervades the citizens of
that fourishing community.
No Intelligent resident of the state
can be ignorant of the natural resour-
ces and advantages of Canon City and
its immediate surroundings, and every
person is familiar to some degree with
what has been accomplished in..build-
ing the "City of Gard ems"
And it should have been evident to
all that these results could not have
been reached without earnest effort,
well considered plans and efficient or
ganization of the highest sort.
The real source of Canon City's pros
perity is to be found not in its climate,
though that is unsurpassed. 1t is not
in the fertility of its soil, though it
would be difficult to find the equal of
that even in Colorado. 1t is not in the
many and various advantages with
which the city has been endowed by
hiuuly DdLuTe, blouBH I'LL thCsc nave
contributed to its prosperity.
The determining element of the
city's advance is in the quality of the
men that direct its affairs and use the
common strength for the common
good.
The new Merchants association is
merely a new instrument through
which an old energy and wisdom may
make itself felt.
The best proof of what Canon City
may become is to be found in what it
already is.
The new association has already
demonstrated its possibilities Of useful
ness to the city, and the Importance
and value of what it is doing should be
appreciated not only within the limits
of it's home community. but through
out the valley and the state.-Pueblo
Chieftian.

flies, rendering the locality one of be-
wildering attractiveness whether in
daylight or darkness.
But it is the practical, rather than
the ethical, side of this remarkable
place which must give it value, and it
is this feature which it is proposed to
utilize for the benefit of mankind The
curative properties of the water invite
the construction of q great sanitarium
and this DR.. Wade expects to build.
Such an institution would do more for
Canon City in the way of advertise
ment than almost anything else, and
every effort should be made to encour-
age and promote the proposed enter
prise.
1t is computed that in less than one
year the sanitarium would have 300
patients and that they would, on an
average, spend five dollars a week, thus
turning "a, 900 month into the cham
nels of trade and that the present pop
ulation of the city would be doubled
in five years. 1t is hardly necessary to
picture the yivifying results of such an
institution on business OF all kinds-its
consequences are obvious.
The people of Canon City do not full
ly appreciate its great advantages to
the seeker after health or pleasure.
We, indeed have, as President Roose-
velt remarked here recently. a great
asset in our mountain scenery and in
the healthfulness which it inspires
Geo. L. Dobson, United States consul
to Huang Chow, China, did not exag-
gerate the matter when he stated, at
the banquet Of the Merchants associa-
tion short time ago, that II the peo-
pie of Canon City advertised its ad-
vantages as persistently as do the
towns of Southern California it would
soon become community of 25,O0o
souls.

Lehfgh, Nov. THE people OF this
town and vicinity are much interested
In the damage case now on trial In the
district court at Fort Dodge In which
Frank Corey Is sueing the Webster
County Coal and Land Company for
$4,000, alleging that the defendant
has mined coal on his land for years
without paying him Tor the same. The
fact that the coal lands are located
here and that the suit ds for such a
large amount makes the suit doubly
interesting to the people OF LehIlgh.
The plaintiff and defendant owned
coal land adjoining at Lehigh and the
defendant opening up mines on his
own property ran under the line and
into the property OF the plaintiff,
where they took out many thousands
OF tons of coal according to his claim.
He alleges that he warned them to
desist but that they kept on operating
on his land regardless OF this. He
alleges that the amount OF coal taken
is valued by him at $4,000, and asks
that the court give him Judgment on
the defendant company for that
amount.
