among the Baptist churches of Colo
RADIO, under the direction of the

which the pastor of the Baptist

will be very profitable TO listen TO,
and invites all to hear him. At the
close of the morning service, and

tunity will be given those desiring To
unite with the church, to do SO. Let
all be present who desire to unite
with the church.
At the evening service the pastor

shop and round house on the Santa
Fe system Last year the company
spent 5000 in buildings and ma
chinery at La Junta. The railroad
payroll is about SIS 900 per month.
We also have a railroad hospital
which will be this year rebuilt al a
cost of S25, 900. Within the past fif-
teen months 80 good new residen-
ces have been built in La Junta,
ranging in cost from 81 200 to 81. go.
Two elegant new business blocks
have been built and two more are
contracted for. We have just late
ly established an elegant new hos
pital in the city and are very proud
of il.
Our city IS Just in the heart of
the greatest sugar beet country in
the world Five miles west of US
new factory is in process of erection
1t will handle 1000 tens of sugar
beets day, and cost 81, ,200, 900. A
new railroad is being built from
Holly, on the east line of the state TO
this new factory on the north side
of the river. 1t opens many thousand
acres. in fact over 50 900, 900 of tax
able property has been added to our
county inside of one year. If our
friend had stopped over a day or
even made inquiry of a switchman
he could have learned a lot that evil
IDENTIFY escaped him on his trip. Our
climate is the very best in the world
for consumptives. We are 1900 feet
above sea level here. and it is dry
sunny all the time. We have hun
dreds of Michigan people here in
the Arkansas valley who can testify
to the benefits of our climate. Our
friend in passing evidently saw
many gangs of Mexican .laborers
at the stations and jumped to the
conclusion that they formed large
part of our population.
Il hope that in the interest OF
fairness To our beautiful valley. and
especially to La Junta which is the
finest city. and the most progressive
in every way, business, education
culture and morality of any city
know, that you will publish this let
ter. as well as read the paper ! send
you which goes into detail regarding
our growth"

Most of the knockers in La Junta
have gone out of business because of
lack of material and the boosters
are at present occupying the center
of the stage La Junta looks like
the real thing as progressive and
enterprising city TO more people
nowadays than it ever did before
Confidence in the town. which has
been a minus quantity with great
many old-timers. is becoming epi-
demic and tpermeates all classes.
Travelling men say that La Junta is
the best town of its size in the state,
and as they arrive at this conclusion
through intimate acquaintance with
general conditions in Colorado their
opinions are entitled to more than the
ordinary amount of consideration.
Most of them are boosters for La
Junta although they nave no par
ticular interest in this burg. When
we discover a real live and energetic
booster right here at home. howev-
er, he ought to be exploited and the
TRIBUNE takes great pleasure in do
ing so. DR.. A. l.. Stubbs recently
indited an epistle to the Michigan
ders which was published in March in
the Charlotte (Mich) Republican in
which he takes exceptions 10 some
observations made by traveller of
that burg who described La Junta as a
little town inhabited by Mexicans. "
Not many men would take the time
and trouble to write letter and
correct a wrong impression con-
cerning his home town, and the
TRIBUNE is of the opinion that DR..
Stubs is entitled to great deal of
credit for so doing. His letter is
permeated with the boosting spirit
throughout and is herewith repro
duced as follows:
If you will look at your subscrip-
tion list you will see that am a
subscriber to your very interesting
paper.
Il was very much interested in
the descriptive letter written by
one of your citizens on his trip from

VESSEL HAD TWO SAILS SPLIT
DURING QUICK RUN TO THIS
PORT.

With a big cargo of fuel oil the bark

the vessel, had been looking for her
to make Honolulu by Christmas so

The vessel would have gotten away
this morning had not the mizzen sail
and mainstay sail been split during a

having the local sailmakers make spe-

that he can get his vessel away with
out any more delay than is absolutely
necessary. He expects to sail tomor-
row, at the latest, for San Francisco.
Light southwest and southeast winds
were experienced during the first six

WIND came up and prevailed to port. A

LUMBER
FOR LOCAL FIRM

The schooner Robert Levers arrived
off port Saturday night, SS days from
Port Ludlow, with a cargo of about
1885, 600 feet of lumber for Levers &
Cooke. 1t was thought that this car
go was the lumber for the quarantine
station improvements which are to be
started as soon as the necessary ma
terial arrive, but the Levers did not
bring that cargo. The material for the
quarantine work is aboard the schoon-
er Camano, now out 20 days from Port
Ludlow. The vessel is likely to arrive
by the middle of the month at the lat
est and then the work can commence.
The Levers struck light winds for
the first 25 days, making not over 1900
miles during that part of the voyage.
The remainder of the trip she had
strong trade winds. Her main back
stays were carried away. The vessel
is very foul and after discharging car
go here will go on the marine railway
for a cleaning. She may get sugar for
San Francisco.

oLD-r1ME SCHOOL READERS
Death Of Noted Textbook Author Re
calls Classic Compendiums.

Probably millions Of sray-haired men
and women will be surprised to learn
that Professor Wilson, author Of the
famous school readers and other text
books has just ended his career not far
from the century mark. The surprise
will be because of the supposition that
he had long ago gone to his reward He
was the last of a great trio of text
book-editors McGufy and Saunders
being the others, who have indirectly
had an immense influence upon the
minds of several rising generations.
School boys and girls are apt to for
get their arithmetic and geography,
but the memory of the pieces in the
readers" is ever kept green and their
influence in forming character can
easily be underestimate. Seventy
years ago the text books of the coun-
try were few and of little worth. Muir
rays Introduction" English Read
er" and Sequel" were used almost ex-
clusively and mighty poor specimens
they were.
1t is true that there were some good
quotations from the classics, but as a
rule they were of the sickly-sentiment-
al-mOral sort, which was neither liter
ature nor good ethical food. They were
badly printed with small type and wers
highly thought of, largely because
there was no substitute. Then came
the trio spoken of. II was Wilson who
first had his readers illustrated and
who sought to put entertaining litera-
ture in them. Saunders was for a time
quite as popular, though materially
different in his selections, while Nc
Guffey from many points of view easi-
ly topped them all.
Many gray-haired fathers who look
over the books for special reading"
used in the schools today, with their
half-tone pictures, long poems and
rather colorless extracts in prose. sigh
for the days when McGuffey's fifth
reader was the ambition of every
scholar That book contained better
and wider selection of English litera-
ture than any that had been compiled
before or perhaps since 1t contained
not only classic specimens and plenty
of moral and didactic selections, but it
really furnished for millions the only
compendium of English literature they
