Play a Tie Came.

The game of football played at Grand
Junction last Saturday between the
Delta and Grand Junction high school
teams resulted in tie game. neither
team scoring.
Although the Delta boys had bnaten
them two weeks ago on the Delta
grounds they could rot turn the trick
in the return game. The Junction
team had been considerably strength
ened and this together with constant
practice enabled them to put up a better
game this time.
About seventy-five went down from
here to root for the Delta team and all
say that the game was exciting from
start to finish with both teams doing
good work.

ADDRESS BUSINESS men
Two Noted Colorado Boosters
Talk to Delta Citizens.

A mass meeting was held at the court
house Thursday afternoon which was
addressed by Prof. Brandenburg and
John T. Burns, both thorough Colorado
boosters.
Mr.. Brandenburg, who had charge Of
the Colorado exhibit which was sent to
various state fairs, gave an outline of his
work and the good that the Colorado
Commercial association is doing adv.r-
tising the resources of the state in the
east.
Mr.. Burns talk was mainly along the
lines of organizing for the purpose Of
advertising and boosting the state and
expressed himself rs being surprised
that this section had 30 many resources
TO boost and SO little of it being done.
His connection with the Colorado
Commercial association as secretary
has made him very familiar with differ
ent methods of advertising and boosting
the state s resources.
At the conclusion of his remarks both
Mr.. Stephan. president and Mr.. VOL
bert. secretary of the Delta County
Business Mems association made short
talks after which il was decided to call
a meeting of the association for next
Monday evening.
During the meeting the broad guaging
Of the d. & X. G.. and the establish
ment of a sugar factory at Delta were
discussed and it seems that both are
equally certain. The sugar company
has announced the fact that as soon as
il is definitely learned that the road is
to be broadened and sufficient acreage
can be had. that q factory will be
located here.
1t was also stated as coming from =
railroad official that broad gauge cars
would be running from Grand Junction
to Montrose within a year.

Records We're Broken.

DENVER, Colo. Nearly Is, 200 cattle
arrived for the market last week, which
roke all records for fall runs, although
receipts have been heavier during the
pring months when southern cattle
were going through. All offerings
found sale here as buyers were plenti-
full, but closed 10 to 15c lower than the
receding week. This was due to the
fact that railroads were unable to fur
nish sufficient cars to load out the cattle
er they were sold and buyers had to
hold them in the yards for several days
at considerable expense in shrinkage
and feed charges. For this reason
statesmen had to make some concessions
to move the cattle. Country buyers
were numerous and dealers all had
plenty of orders and had it not been for
this car shortage trade would have been
active and fully steady. The situation
Is now grearly improved and railroads
are making heroic efforts to furnish all
the cars needed. Cars are scarce all
ver the west and the conditions here
are no worse than al other points.
Beef steers were in fair supply and
very good demand. They sold largely
at 50. 90 to t3.75. Extreme top for the
week, s3.s5. One fancy bunch of cows
brought s3.55 with another at s3. Is,
but bulk of the good to choice went at
S. 80 to 1880 Bulls sold up to So 25
and best veals brought s4.5O. Choice
feeders sold at 1915 freight paid and
sales around t3. 30 to g. 20 were numnr-
Gus with the medium and light at g.. IS
to $3.25. Market today was quiet.
Receipts were liberal but stormy wea-
ther interfered with trading to some
extent. Prices rule about steady with
the close of last week.
About 90. COO sheep came last week
and 25.O0O today. which breaks all
records in the history of the market.
Demand was good and trading active
al strong TO higher prices. Nearly all
went 10 the feed lots.

Car Shor ta9e Serious.

The shortage of cars for the trans
portation of produce is becoming seri-
GUS. 1t has become necessary to pile
hundreds of tons of sugar beets on the
ground pending the arrival of cars with
which to transport them. Reports of
this shortage extends to all towns in
this section of the western slope. Par
ties have been waiting for weeks to ship
cattle, who cannot secure cars.

being improperly set and the consequent
delay, the county lost several hundred
dollars in interest, which if added to
sl7l would make the list the most
costly, according to the size, ever
printed in the county.
Right here we will let the public onto
the scheme of these champions of the
taxpayers. These papers hope by con-
tinued abuse of the county commission
ers to force them to let the printing to
the lowest bidder, whether responsible
or not, and then all the papers will be
forced to 60 into a combine, for self
protection. When this is done every
paper will put in the same bid and the
proceeds divided up.
Just think of it-every paper in the
combination none to cry graft. y
When all the newspapers in Delta
county are in on the printing then the
real graft will begin and the time will
have arrived when the taxpayers will
really need champion.
If this work is set in the proper di-
mensions legal rates are none too much,
but when this paper or any other has
to do this printing and divide up with
the other seven papers of Delta county
they have got to charge enough to get
eight profits that's all.
