again make their home here, having
rented the Adams property on Sixth
street Glad to welcome them among
us again. - New Castle Democrat
That Ohio movement to nominate
Mr.. Longworth for the governorship
is premature. He may have his arms
full in 1908 and be indisposed to con-
slider the Ohio governor ship. Houston

The timber reserve question is be-
ing looked on with more favor than
when the idea was first presented.
Cattemen recognize there are some
advantages in the proposed scheme,
and are willing to give it an impartial
trial. New Castle Democrat.
The scarlet fever scare is a thing
of the past. The quarantine is de-
clared off and everybody has resumed
business again. To sum up the situa
tion briefly, there were about dozen
cases that were called fever. Two or
three of them were of a somewhat Sc.
we're form but the rest were so mild as
to be scarcely distinguishable Craig

o. c. Crooke, Bisbee, Arz Mr.. c.
has good position with one of the
big mining companies down there, and
Judging by the tenor of his letter, is
getting along very nicely. 1t will also
be pleasing news to the many friends

munity, to know that Mrs. Crooke is
enjoying very good health in her new
home. - Meeker Herald.
o. L. Ellinwood, lineman for the
Colorado Midland railway, was repair.
ing the telegraph line between Sloane
and Basalt Wednesday. Mr.. Ellin-
wood says the % rifle causes more
''trouble'' than any thing else that
he has to contend with. 1t is a
strange idea that people going up and
down the railroad track can't find any
thing else to shoot at but telephone
and telegraph glass. Basalt Journal.
j. q. Ierhune, manager of the
Routt County Lumber company, has
| cd Of LAT
board, some of which will be used in
finishing the interior of the offices on
the second floor of the postoffice build
ing. This lath board strengthens the
building and holds the plaster much
more firmly than the usual lath, and
is only trihe more expensive. The
advantages to be gained from its use
are so great that it is sure to come
into general use. - Yampa Leader.
The Richmond Missourian says the
stingiest man lives in Ray county.
He was married by justice of the
peace and paid the bill in turnips.
For a wedding trip he took his bride
to Richmond in a lumber wagon and
for wedding dinner they ate a
dimes worth of bologna and a box of
crackers as they walked around the
squale. Before starting home he
bought a nickle's worth of candy, and
as she opened the sack to get the
second stick, he stammered: "Say,
my woman, 'sposin we save the rest
of this here candy for the children. ="
The amount of cash rent paid per
acre for farms is the sulest proof of
the producing power of the farms
Now isn't that the trutht Last year,
or perhaps it was the year before,
John Snipes, whose ranch lies near
Snipes postoffice in Plateau valley,
rented 90 acres of cultivated land for
800, or nearly $500. per acre. In
many parts of the Mississippi valley
cash rent cannot be obtained most of
the tenants till the land for two thirds
and when cash rent is obtained it is
never over two or three dollars per
acre. Plateau Voice.
John Weiskopf of the Steamboat
Sentinel was here Tuesday returning
from short trip to Boulder and Den
yer. While outside he purchased a
lot of new material for his printing
office and will be well prepared to take
care of his share of the boom, slated
to make its appearance in Routt
county this summer. Incidentally
John had some very common looking
rock, which comes from one of his
prospects on the range just east of
Yampa, assayed, and was not little
surprised to learn that it goes high
in tungsten, in fact much higher
than that in Boulder county. He is
much elated over the result of the as
