Always Staunch
And True

The Denver Republican has al
ways avoided the fallacies and
knaveres of yellow journalism,
and its steadily increasing Circula-
lion proves conclusively that its
policy Of telling the plain Truth
without exaggeration or misrepre-
sentation, standing fast for the
Right, is heartily approved with
growing force by the intelligent
Public to which it appeals.
To read it is liberal Education,
and the citizen who goes without
it does positive harm to himself,
to his family, and to the commu-
nifty.
In no other way can the invest
ment of 2H cents per day
for that is all The Republican
costs any subscriber-bring such
rich results in that knowledge
which is both Power and Pleasure.

tertainment fill its columns and it

new road to that vicinity. They
have met with excellent success
and the work on the road will
commence next Monday it the
weather will permit The object
of this undertaking is to make an
easier grade to the mesa, as the
old grade is very steep in some
places and a load of produce or
provisions cannot be hauled up
without great deal of exertion on
the part of a team. The new road
while longer, will only have about
six per cent grade. 1t will start
below the old road and continue
below it and come on to the mesa
south of the first road, or on a
straight line leading across the

Within the past week there has
come to the Chieftain Office one OF
the most pleasing descriptive pam
phlets that it has been our pleasure
recently to see.
This book, which is from the press
OF the Paonia NEWSPAPER, is en-
titled, Souvenir of the North Fork
Valley, Colorado" and it is devoted
to the towns of Paonia, Hotchkiss,
Crawford, Maher, Cedaredge, Sur
face Creek, Eckert and Cory, all In
Delta county, and to their surround
ing country.
Residents in eastern Colorado, or
visitors from the east who desire a
practical illustration OF what is
being done toward the building up OF
the western part Of our great state,
could not find a better field for their
investigation than this North Fork
country, where much has already
been accomplished and where large
additional areas will be brought
under cultivation by means OF canals
now in course OF construction.
1t should be borne in mind by those
not familiar with the precise geo.
graphical conditions, that this North
Fork country is quite distinct from
southern Delta county, which lies in
the Uncompahgre valley, and a large
, part OF which will be irrigated from
the new government tunnel now ir
course OF construction. The North
Fork country lies in the valley OF the
north branch OF the Gunnison river
and has an Irrigation system entirely
its own.

From the Chicago lnter-Ocean.
The executive officers Of one Of our
great railway systems ordered on We'd

freight ears. The order calls for an
expenditure of S2,OOO.OO0 and the new
cars are 30 be delivered early next
year.
The most important item ir the con-
tract is that relating to freight cars.
The 800 cars ordered represent in
tonnage the carrying capacity of TO- 400
OF the freight cars in use twenty-five
years ago. This is true of all the new
cars ON the several railway systems,
and not one but all the great railways
have ordered or viii order new equip
ment this year.
The orders are proportionately as
large as the order of the Hartman
system given on Wednesday and in
every case the carrying capacity Of the
roads has been greatly increased.
All the railways centering i'm Chicago
report increase i'm business. and all are
preparing for further increase next
year. on the lakes more ships are
under construction than I'm any previ-
Gus year and all signs point to the
steady enlargement OF lake commerce.
The new lake freight carriers like the
new freight cars, are of enlarged capa-
city, so that the same number of new
vessels will carry two or three times
the tonnage Of the old ones.
If the renewal of railway equipment
were peculiar to one railway system il
would mean that conditions indicative
OF continued and increased prosperity
prevailed on an the lines OF that sys-
tenn. But as all the great railways are
renewing and increasing equipment the
conditions indicative OF prosperity must
be common to all parts Of the country.
The new equipment, however, indi-

II HE members OF Diamond state
Il Grange OF Stanton have again
taken up the good roads question. and
from the tenor Of the remarks Of the
members they are considering the
matter practically.
The question Of good roads Is not
confined to building few miles OF
stone roads, for there are hundreds Of
miles Of highways that are used by
the farmers and others constantly
where the expense Of macadamizine
is out OF the question.
What shall be done to improve these
roads? The members of this grange
antimate that we have in practice a
system which illustrates how not TO
do it. The old system which from
time immemorial has been in opera
tion has failed to give us good roads.
We cannot avoid the conclusion that
little by little, year by year. we have
wasted money and the aggregate no.
body dares compute-wasted.
The money is scattered around
here a little there a little. everywher,
little. Not enough to do any perma.
nent good anywhere. just enough t,

tenslve improvements are needed. tn

tion that is in fairly good condition

JAPAN's NEW ERA.

THE New York World prints a
j story which while rather start
ling Is by no means convincing. II
declares that the Mikado IS in danger
OF dethronement; that the terms Of
peace will not be accepted by the
army and that the generals are vir-
tually Ia state Of mutiny. 1t goes
on to declare that the army snaps its
fingers at the civil power and intends
TO restore the old order OF things.
We will wager that the whole story
is fake. There has been too great
progress TO admit Of the return Of the
old order. and there have been too
many evidences Of loyalty to the
throne and the empire, too great con-
cord IN waging the war to admit Of
the suspicion OF mutiny.
