Both the Japanese and Russian
peace ENJOYS are learning that
President Roosevelt was very
much in earnest when he sug-
gested a peace conference. Now
when a rupture is about to occur
he steps in and is bringing strong
pressure to bear on both the
warning nations in favor of peace.
His attempt to force a settle
ment, backed by several Euro
pean nations, shows how thor
oughly he has understood the
situation and the differences be-
tween the two nations and was
prepared to meet the emergency.

DELTA COUNTY FINANCES.

With the cash now in hand by
the county treasurer there is
within seventeen hundred dollars
of enough to pay off all outstand-
ing warrants on the ordinary
county fund. County Treasurer
Beckley says that by October
first Of this year all outstanding
warrants can be paid. A few
years ago warrants were running
from two to three years behind
the issue, now they are only a
few months behind and it is con-
fidently hoped by the officials
that Delta county will be paying
her bills in cash before the ex-
piration of 1906. With such a
showing as this it is only a mat
ter of time when there will be a
lowering of Delta county taxes.
There are very few counties in
the state that are as near up
with their outstan ing warrants
as Delta and it is safe to say that
no county in the state the size of
Delta can make as good a showing.

It seems that reports that have
gone out through a Delta paper
has caused the papers of the
surrounding towns to imagir e
that Delta is about the "punkest"
town from a dry" standpoir t
that ever happened. We clip
two items this week from out
side papers accusing Delta of
having all kinds of drunks. Now
just to show these outside places
how debauched we really are
there has been just three drunks
booked in sixteen months. If
any town of Delta's size can
beat this record let them show
it up.

he KNOWS BETTER.

AS an evidence that the at
tempt to prohibit the liquor bust
ness does not result satisfactorily
in our sister towns we feel like
calling attention to the fact that
hardly an issue of the Delta
papers fails to call attention to
some arrest for drunkenness in
that place. Here in Paonia with
two saloons we rarely have an
arrest on this account. Delta
steadily furnishes evidence that
they make a mistake in trying to
regulate the habits of their citi-
zens by law. w.-Paonia Newspaper,
We know that the writer of
the above article knows a blamed
sight different than his article
would lead one to believe. Last
week while here for couple of
days he was forced to send a
hurry-up call to Hotchkiss for
drinkables. However, this may
have given him an object lesson
of the inconvenience that he
would be put to if his own town
should go dry" and this may
have frightened him into writing
the above. AS to the newspapers
of Delta chronicling a list of
drunks every week that is
positively untrue, as this paper
has never mentioned but one
drunk during its present manage
ment and that was a newspaper
editor and he was in Paonia. A
certain paper here that is high
authority on "drunks" takes oc-
casion to chronicle things Of this
XII d, bit the newspapers do not.

NORWAY UNANIMOUS.

There is now no longer any
doubt about the unpopularity of
Norway's Swedish connection.
Out of more than 321, 900 votes
cast by the people of Norway on
the question of the dissolution of
the tie with Sweden, all except
161 were fordissolution. Among
all the worlds plebiscitums on
any issues, this vote by the peo-
pie of Norway comes nearest to
absolute unanimity. There will
be no uncertainty hereafter in
Sweden or anywhere else regard
ing Norway's sentiment on this
important question.
In the face of such a unani-
nous sentiment all that is left
for Sweden to do is to accept the
situation, make its peace with
Norway, and try to enter into
some sort of an alliance which
will keep these two branches Of
the Scandinavian race in har-
mony.
After Sweden recognizes Nor
way independence, formally or
tacitTy, the rest of the world will
come quickly. It is possible that
King Oscar will allow one of his
sons to take the Norwegian
throne, if the offer in that direc-
ton still holds good. It would
please the people of the United
States to see Norway become q
republic, but the pressure from
the outside is likely to prevent
this, at least at the outset. Rus
sia, Germany, Sweden, Austria
Hungary, Denmark and italy
would naturally be against q
republic. Probably a majority
of the Norwegian people would
prefer that sort of a government.
1t would be easier for Norway as
a kingdom to put herself in
political accord with Sweden and
Denmark, the other branches of
she Scandinavian race, than it
would as a republic, Ssill, a
government by the people may
be nearer at hand for the Nor
wegians than the world realizes.
