Mayor Speer and turn 1t over to the
Patterson crowd to make the Demo-

The Hepburn Bill and

the Coal Roads.
Another feature of the bill which
Is Of the utmost Significance requires
that after May LIST, 1903, no Interstate
carrier shall engage In the transpor-
tation of commodities of its own in
competition with shippers over its
lines. This is intended principally
to break up the control that the rail-
roads now exercise over the anthra-
cite-coal business in toto, and over
the bituminous-coal business In large
part. It remains to be seen whether
this part of the law can be so carried
out as to be made really effective.
As rule, the coal business of the
railroads is organised separately, al
though the stock of the coal com.
panies Is owned by the railroad COM
psnies and the presidents of the coal
roads are the presidents Of the COM
panfes that mine and sell the coal.
Perhaps the most complete monopoly
now existing In America is the an
thracite-coal monopoly, and 1t will
be next to impossible to break 1t up.
For most great trusts and combine
oons 1t Is easy to present q strong
practical argument based chiefly up
on the economies resulting from the
substitution Of unified and co-opers-
tive methods on the large scale for
the wastes and Implications of the
old competitive system. b ut no argu-
ment At all can Justify a monopoly
due to the seizure Of the whole supply
OF some natural commodity that Is

mon carrier or q group Of common
carriers, whose proper function is not

LITTLE INDIANS ON VISIT.

Prof. Charles E. Burton, superin-
intendent of the Indian school at
Grand Junction, came in last evening
accompanied by four little Navajo
Indian primary students whom he
was taking down to Durango to visit
their parents. They were bright lit
tie fellows. but as timid as a deer
on his native heath, when before
strangers. The little fellows were in
blue and gray uniforms which
brought out their olive complexion
and big brown eyes, and made them
look more like little Japs than Ind
ians, many people mistalting them
for Japs. 1t is quite a task to take
these little fellows away from the
absolute freedom of their homes and
put them into the natural restrain
which comes of college life. but Prof.
Burton and his assistants at the Tel
Ter institute are doing the work and
doing 1t successfully. 1t takes a
wonderful store of patience and a
natural faculty combined with a
kindly disposition, all of which Prof
Burton seems to possess in a marked
degree. Journal.

COURSE
SOON OPENS

The management of the Grand
Junction lecture course need to place
about sixty more season tickets to
insure coming out whole this year.
The patrons of the course can assist
in this matter by urging their friends
TO purchase tickets in advance. The
tickets can easily be placed by TAX
ing time to canvass for them. but
the public ought not to make II nee
essary for the busy men who have the
course in charge to do this. If 1t
was a money making affair the case
would be different. If the tickets
are not sold without canvassing sew
eral days will have to be spent in
placing them. If sixty of the patrons
of the course would each sell one
ticket it would be easy for them and
relieve the managers very much.
The course this year is said to be
the strongest this side of Chicago.
There is not a weak number on it,
not an attraction which does not ap-
pear on the best courses in this coun-
try. Any reasonable latitude will be
allowed in the payment for tickets.
All students desiring tickets are re-
Quested to arrange for them at once.
The delivery of tickets will begin in
about ten days.

Among the other grain which was
threshed on U. G. Pearce's ranch last
Friday was the crop from a tract of
land a few rods square which was
stacked separately in order to make
a test of the yield. The results shows
ed that there were raised on this par
eel of land So 1-2 bushels of wheat.
The land was measured and was
found to contain just one-half acre.
This means that the yield was 105
bushels per acre. This is the biggest
yield on record. The largest yield
of wheat ever recorded in Colorado
is 100 bushels per acre, which was
raised in Saguache county few
years ago. 1t is a pity that Mr..
Pearce did not have several acres in
this field. nevertheless. until some
body shows something greater olathe
will claim the largest yield of wheat

THE MASKED BALL.

The masked ball and confetti car
nival at the Auditorium last night
was attended by several hundred peo-
pie but it was not generally under
stood that the people were to mask
and as a result there were not great
number of people costumed and mask
ed. But a great time was certainly
had. hTe dancing continued long
after midnight. The music was good
and the floor was in excellent condi-
tion:: 1t was as good natured a
gathering as has gathered at the
Auditorium in a long time.
The costumes of some of the mask
ed dancers attracted much attention
and were very unique. Two young
ladies wore dresses made solely out of
copies of the Daily Sentinel, and it
is said that they certainly made a
hit with the merry crowd.
