his respect for the court arose several
notches.
We have viewed our friend as an editor,
as Justice, so now let us look upon him
as an optimist. La this we view him
at his best when discoursing on the
on the wonderful future that is before
JohnstowD. On this subject he real
ly grows eloquent. He sees in the near
future million dollar sugar factory;
a new railroad, manufacturing institu-
tions and on and on till his view is lost
the maize of smoke stacks, sky scrapers
and church spires of a metropolitan city
Mis-. Smith however, is not gifted with
such a magnificent Imagination but
dwells down too near the ground of the
reality to share in her husbands visions
That Joseph never fails to find the
bright side Of the cloud is evidenced by
an instance which happened during our
visit. A new gasoline engine had been
recently installed in the office, but for
"SAAS S"ooo VI otlei ~ uOStuJ always 20
when you want it to. One day after
working with it until be was about pet
cred out, Joe decided that it was high
TINA for something to happen. And
something did happen. The iron crank
which he used for starting went through
an sS plate glass window in the front of
the office. The only comment that he
made was that he wanted to fix the
window 50 it could be opened and shut
anyway so it didn't matter. We dare
say that he has ever s.since considered
that he was entirely justified in throw
ing that crank through the window.
While we have by no means exhausted
the subject our letter has reached its re-
quired length so must ring the curtain
down On the great city of Johnstown -
that is to be.
We might say, however, as few
after curtain remarks, that Johnstown
is surrounded by some of the best sug-
ar beet and alfalfa land in the world
and grew the sugar beets which were
awarded the gold medal at the World g
Fair at St. Louis.

EDITOR, JUSTICE, ,OPTIMIST
EiDsHPH GORDON SMITH OF
JoHNSTOWN
Editor Of The Breeze, Justice OF
s. The Peace and All Around
Good Fellow.

One Of the most pleasant memories of
our trip to Colorado were threa days
spent at little town which appears on
the newest maps as JohustowD, but OIL
maps more than two years old it is
marked by vacantspac
JohnstoUn is a town Of something
like 200 inhabitants two or three years
old7=-that is the town is two or three
years old not the Inhabitants. 1t is
sitpated on spur OF railroad running
oIkfrom Loveland (which goes by the
sweet name Of "The Sugar Road" from
thssiact it is owned by the sugar com.
psny and is used for hauling sugar beets
to the factory at Loveland. The trains
make trip over the road whenever the
spirit moves them and it is rather
uncertain when the train "do move"
The morning we arrived in Loveland
the knowledge was impaired to us by an
expressmsn that the train on the ''Sug-
ar, road was liable to move at any min.
ut,. The result was that he was engaged
to Take Us post haste to the "Sugar"
road station. When he presented his
bill for 80 cents we were sorry of it and
attempted the "Bll" Crandall racket of
efclaiming with a great deal Of vehe-
nance, "What!" 1t didn't phase the
transfer man however, SO we reluctantly
handed over the coin. We were still

GREAT YEAR FOR FARMERS
THREE BIG CROPS THAT FIND
READY SALE ON CASH MARKET
Wheat Was Remarkably dood-corn
Gives Assurance of Bumper Crop
Fruit Couldn't Be Better.

There are many farmers ia the city
these days, the ground being too wet to
work, and they congregate in groups at
different spots around the square where
they talk matters concerning the farm.
These rains will make the corn cropa
bumper one this year." said one man.
1.-The corn is now so far advanced that
the excessive rains will not injure it as
some people seem to think, but will
make it better than ever"
"Yes," said another, "this is going to
he banner year in every line for the
farmers. This is the first year for
long lime that there has been big crop
in three things we try to raise the most
of-wheat, fruit and corn"
1t is fact that not for fifteen years
has there been year in which all Of
these crops we're as good as they have
been this year. There have been many
years in which one of these products
has returned "a larger yield, but none in
which all have been coed.
Inc frult tnls year is proving to be OF
excellent quality. The apples are hardy,
and the fruit is very little specked or
spotted. The peaches and other fruit
so far gathered are also Of excellent
quality.
The wheat crop in this county was
good. Just now the price is lower than
it has been. because many farmers are
forced to sell now. The first new
wheat brouget IS cents and the price
will probably return to that again next
fall when the supply is not 50 great.
AT present. the prospect could not be
better for a large corn crop in this
county. Now this crop ,s so far advanc
ed it is scarcely probable that any
thing will occur to seriously injure it.
Taken all in all, this has been most
prosperous year for the farmers.-Press.

more sorry that we made the acquain-
ance with this individual after sitting
in the car till noon before it started for
Johnstown. The train was waiting un-
til the baggage man could do up the
chores and get there with some baggage
from the other depot.
On arriving at Johnstown we made q
bee line for the "Breeze" office. The
"Breeze" as it's name would suggest, is
without doubt the breeziest newspaper
in the west and is kept blowing by a
magnificent system Of bellows operated
by that versatile editor, justice of the
peace and optifnist, j Gorden Smith,
with the emphasis on the Gorden. 1t
was the same old "Joe" Smith however
that we used to go in swimming with at
old Flat Rock just around the bend be-
low the Knell Fair grounds at Car
thage 20 years ago. IT'S true Joe is los
log some hair from the crowd Of his
head but this is made up 10 measure
by a very respectable growth of hair on
his upper lip. We were so glad to see
each other that it took two spasms Of
Misunderstanding to make our greeting
complete.
Joe is one of the most iovial happy go.
lucky sort of fellows we have ever met.
He is the kind OF fellow who would
give fellowmau the last
cent he had II he needed it and then
would go out and borrow more to give
him il the case demanded. 1t is to thee
Joseph Gordon Smith, Editor, Justice,
Optimist, that We dedicate this chapter
May the "Breeze' ever keep d
BLOWN those zyphers Of good cheer;
May you continue to deal out justice
tempered with mercy; and may the
foundest hopes of your optimistic spirit
he realized is the toast we offer for thee.
AS we have heretofore intimated, Mr..
Smith is the breeziest newspaper man
10 Colorado. He has at different times
been connected with some of the Colo
RADIO Springs aud Denver papers and is
now the leading spirit Of Johpstowp.
We got there just in time to help him
with his paper, his regular help having
gone off on vacation. For our service
he gave Us beautiful "puff'' in the
paper which ended something like this:
"We would like to keep him for a long
time for he is good printer and he is
too polite to charge anything for hiS
service" This last sentence was quite q
blow to us as we had begun to figuae
up that possibly We could get enough
out Of our work to pay the expenses of
our trip to Colorado, but of course un-
der such implicit faith as that We did
The Jasper news., 1906-08-23

not have the nerve to hand in our bill.
The reader has probably begun TO
wonder what "Justice" has to do with
Joseph Gordon, Well, he is the sole
dispenser of justice to the residents OF
the balliwack of Johnstown, the town
being uuiucorporated and he having
been duly elected as justice Of the peace.
This fact was the means of bringing US
an experience which was the first Of the
kind 10 our life. That is playing the
the role of witness in police court.
Three boys had been brought
before the Justice on the charge
Of disturbing religious meeting. The
meeting was in progress 10 a tent and
we happened to be in attendance.
While the preacher was warming up to
his subject something was thrown on
the tent and the next instance there
was terrible explosion. The canvas
separated just above the preachers head
leaving a hole about three feet in diam
ator 10 the roof. OF course it almost
broke up the meeting for tnst nigh.
Suspicion rested upon three boys. Wo
were called ON the witness stand to
prove that an offense had been com.
mitted. Tho evidence was not sufficient
to convict the boys and so they were
turned loose. But this did not deter the
mothers of the boys from calling the
Justice to account for arresting their
boys without sufficient evidence.
Friend Joe squared himself with the
irrste women however with the promise
that since the evidence bid not implicate
the boys there would be no record
OF the case placed on his books.
Another time that the dignity of the
court was upheld was when in the pro.
gres, of a previous case lawyer attem-
ptcd to lay down the law to the justice.
"It don't make any difference what the
law says" says Smith, "the court knows
what is right and what is wrong and
that is what is going to be DONE" The
lawyer was somewhat taken abaok but
