more are becoming independent each

their families; more are waking up to the

question will not down entirely, as much

bing up to the great annoyance of some

afternoon in a civil suit brought by
McKesson d Little of Colorado Springs,
who as attorneys for the old county high
school committee demand judgment for
legal services rendered.
They ask judgment against the high
school district Of the county OF Ebert
in the sum of 81 900 for services render
ed the high school committee during the
litigation regarding the location of a high
school, and the voting of bonds to build
same.
The county superintendent is at pres
ent the only member of the high school
committee, as before the injunction, res
training the committee from voting bonds
or locating the high school had been dis
solved, the terms of its members expired,
and since then nothing has been done to
create new committee, and by mutual
consent the question seemed to have been
dropped.

These are the days when the discon-
tented farmers fancy turns to thoughts
of moving. The great railway systems
of the West flood the mails with man
uels setting forth the beauties and vir-
tues of this and that region, each claim
ing to be par excellence the home-seeker's
paradise. Agriculture has in this aspect
taken the place of mining. In former
times the "new country" that offered the
most attractions to settlers from a dis
tance, was that in which gold was taken
out of the ground in big yellow nuggets
or infinitesimal dust; in these latter days
the search is still for quick fortune,
but the medium exploited is the growing
crop, which can be turned into gold-or
greenbacks- the slower processes OF
planting, cultivating and harvesting; and
the pioneer now has for his emblems the
gang plow and the reaping machine,
instead of the pick and pan. Now, the ad
vertising circulars TEEN with prints in
which the settlers comfortable home
stead and happy family are shown, pro
projected against fields of heavy headed
grain, trees groaning under apples and
peaches proportionately as large as water
melons, and thecattle of a Thousand hills
grouped in pen by the side of the rail
road awaiting rapid shipment to markets
where buyers stand in line, longing for
the chance to draw checks in payment.
While these pictures attract the eye, few,
if any, have ever bettered their condition
by leaving our own fair county, and the
few who have left would only be too
glad to be back.

The trade territory of a town is not all
dependent upon the distance to neighbor-
ing trading points. The trade territory
depends upon the enterprise of the mer
chants and the residents Of the town. II
a town does not reach after the trade it
will come only as fast as it has to, and it
will grow as it is forced to. But il the
merchants go after business in the sur
rounding country, advertising in every
possible way, and making good every
word of their Advertising, trade will come
from an ever increasing radius, the town
will gain reputation for being awake
and it will forge to the front. 1t is the
men in the town and not altogether the
men living within certain number of
miles from it that makes the town.
