This afternoon at two O'Clock Mrs.
Lee Wheateley, wife of j. E. Wheat
ley, passed away at 243 Grande ave-
nue. where the family resided after
a long illness of consumption.
Mrs. Wheateley accompanied by
her husband and children came to
Grand Junction few months ago
from Jonesboro, Arkansas, the old
home. seeking better health. How
ever the disease had gone too far to
be checked and she gradually declin-
ed. For the past four weeks Mrs.
Wheatley has been very low and
death was expected at any time. This
afternoon. surrounded by loved ones,
she passed peacefully away.
The family has made many friends
during the short residence here. Mr..
Wheatley was for time connected
with the Bargain house, later he
opened a furniture repair house in
the lower Currie block but was fore
ed to retire from business and give
his sole attention to the care of his
wife.
The funeral will take place tomor-
row afternoon at two o'clock from the
Presbyterian church. Rev. Weir will
have charge of the last services.

INTERESTING LOCAL STRUGGLE

The fight for the secretaryship of
the Mesa County Building and Loan
association wakes warmer with eacn
day. The retirement of the Messis.
Ramey leaves an opening in the sec
retaryship of the association and with
the new board of directors about to
be filled, there is warm contest
for the succession to the secretary
ship. The candidates so far that
have arisen on the horizon are e.
E. Udlock. who short time ago con-
nected himself with the Ramey bro
theirs and now member of the Ram
ey-udlock Investment company, and
Charles B. Rich, one the pioneer
settlers of this city and valley. the
senior member of the firm of Rich
Hutchinson Realty company.
The lineup to secure this import
ant position, includes the owner of
every share of stock in the associa-
ton. The stockholders are rallying
to both sides and when the organiza-
ton of the new board is effected the
contest for the secretaryship will be
on with vengence. There is no
acrimony in the contest,
developed as yet. but there may be
before its close, although this is to
be regretted, should 1t occur.

timber warden. connected with the
Gylensten land deal. was summarily

But, Notwithstanding these facts,
there are few good people inclined
to listen to the canting of bunch
of self-styled reformers, principally
composed of shyster lawyers, car
pet-baggers and those much-to-be-
pitied members of society with no
visible means of support, Whose
consuming passions can only be
satisfied with a place at the public
crib or by reaping the rewards of
the trouble in which they can in
volve decent people. 1t is possible
and altogether probable that these
pettifogging lawyers could not exc
out their miserable existence were
it not for the trouble, the dissen-
sions and disturbances they are
able to stir up among the better
and more worthy classes of society.
In the past Conejos county has
been infested with corrupt and un-
scrupulous lawyer politicians, but
as soon as their methods were dis

to political oblivion the density
of which could only be equaled by

We rise to warn the worthy peo-
pie of this county against these
charlatans. They have nothing to
lose and only hope to reap profit
from whatever trouble in which
they can cause you to become in
volved. You all have a feeling of
horror and word of contempt for

The Courier Sued for Libel.

W. g. Eeles, of Alamosa, has
brought "A $4,000 libel suit
against the owners of the Alamosa
Courier, and among them we
note the names of w. A. Braiden,
w. o. Mieir, and DIR. Geo.
Hamilton, of La Jara. This suit
will give the Courier management
an opportunity to prove some of its
slanderous assertions, but it's a
hundred to one shot that they'll
be out this week taking it all back.
We are surprised that the Courier,
or any other paper, would publish
matter that could be libelous if un-
true without examining the facts
before publication to ascertain
their truth or falsity and it would
appear that in this case the editor
has been grossly negligent. Since
the advent of the new management
of the Courier, the paper has been
making all sorts of wild assertions
about local affairs of which they
knew nothing, and it seems that
the outfit is about to pay goodly
sum for their malicious ignorance.

How perfectly applicable is this
excerpt of wisdom from the pen of
the great philanthropist and editor
of ''The Philistiner to the condi-
tion of affairs as existing in Cone
jos county today.
Do you imagine he wrote 1t for
our especial benefit, or do you sup
pose that it emanates from wis
dom acquired from the best, though
bitterest, teacher known to mortal
man-experience? Be that as it
may, we trust to the intelligence of
the people of our great county to
attach the proper significance and
to digest the food thereby offered
for reflection.
We have a county, the greatness
of which is but beginning to dawn
upon the world and which is rapidly
coming to be recognized as one of
the banner agricultural and stock
growing districts of the west. Our
farmers and business men. without
exception, are prospecting to a de-
gree most gratifyingand the county,
itself, has never in its history been
in so excellent shape. Warrants
are worth one hundred cents on
the dollar and the county indebt-
edness is rapidly decreasing "A
condition, by the way, that is
the direct result of the sterl-
ing worth and honor of man
who sacrificed fortune to cancel
moral obligation, much to the
disappointment and chagrin of a
few of our aspiring reformers with
a thirst and lust for office who ex-
erted their every effort to prevent

able method known to their de-
praved natures to vilify, defame

OUR NEW BANK.

Next Monday morning Cashier
Kavalec will open up the new La
Jara State Bank for business in
their handsome new building, and
what will no doubt become one of
the leading financial concerns of
the south west will have been for
mally launched. 1t is with no
small degree of pride that La Jara
welcomes this institution, inasmuch
as two-thirds of its capital stock is
held by local men and that it is to
be strictly La Jara bank. The
board of directors is composed of
r. B. Wallace, J. T. Wallace, b.
l.. Van Vechten, l.. A. Norland,
S. E. Newcomb, l.. ID. Eskridge
and r. j. Kavalec, while the bal
ance of the stockholders are among
our most prominent people. The
officers elected were: j. r. Wal
lace, president; S. E. Newcomb,
vice president; R. J. Kavalec, cash
ier. The capital stock of the bank
is $50, 600 fully paid up and this
will be increased to fifty thousand
in a short time. While nearly
everyone in this section of the
county is highly pleased with the
new bank and the exceptionally
strong and conservative men at the
helm, we are grieved to note that a
certain element in our community
has seen fit to announce their
antagonism to an industry that
cannot help but be big benefit to
the community. We heard, as
early as I O'Clock Wednesday morn
ing that w. A. Braiden was going
to start a bank of his own, his
grandmother having agreed to send
him $4,000 with which to capital-
ize it, providing he failed to close
certain real estate deal he has on
tap, and that he intends to put the
La Jara State bank out of business
before fall. That he will lend
money without interest to all com
ers until his object is realized and
that he will then proceed to make
all his money back. While we
hate to contemplate the awful ruin
that awaits the stockholders of the
La Jara State Bank, we can see
the silver lining to the cloud in the
supposition that perhaps some of

AN INSIPIENT ASS.

We heard one of our young men
making sport of religion in front
of our Office the other day. His
moustache had just begun to sprout
and judging from his talk his
mental faculties were not as well
developed as his moustache. Dur
ing our brief stay upon earth We
have seen many just such young
men cold in death. We have seen
the atheist at rest in his casket,
but before being consigned to their
last resting place they have all
been carried through the doors of
church and had prayers said over
them. This young man could
scotf at religion in his strength and
beauty of health, but if the dark
angle should get after him he
would instinctively regret what he
said and look into the future with
fear and trembling. When one
stands before the open door of
eternity his desire to scott at re-
ligion vanishes. We admit that
there are bad men in the church.
but even these black sheep in the
flock might be blacker if they
were outside. No young man or
old one either, should condemn the
noble efforts the army of Christ
ian men and women are making
towards bettering the condition of
things, and whether we attend
church or not but few of us would
desire to live in "A community where
there was no church. Young man,
in the future, if you must scott at
religion, please get "A little further
