state ticket for years. and that fact is
becoming monotonous. There is
splendid timber in both parties over
here for any Office in the gift of the
state, but somehow it fails to get CON
yer ton recognition. Perhaps it is
because we are too far from the storm
center of party bosslsm and political
chicanery to cut ice. But you bet they
never fail to count our votes Pail

Mark Il. Sears, member of the
state board of health, was in this end
of the county last Tuesday to inspect
the smallpox situation at Gypsum and
incidentally dropped off at Eagle to
visit his old friend A, q. Borah. Mr..
Sears stated to the reporter that the
existing cases of sickness purported to
be Cuban itch at Gypsum are genuine
smallpox. He estimates that over
fifty people had been exposed to the
disease hut is of the opinion that there
is little danger of an epidemic owing
to the fact that no new cases have
developed. Eagle Enterprise.
This Telegram is nearing a number
of expressions from ranchmen who
are compelled to travel what is known
as the valley road between Rife and
a point several miles east which would
indicate that they, at least, would be
heartily in favor of bond issue for

that the road bed is in poor condition,
the bridges and culverts worse, and

Things have been stirring, in fact
quite lively, in wolf circles during
the second quarter of 1906. During
the month of April eighteen gray

May, fifteen gray wolves and thirty
coyotes got their feet in it, literally,
for they had not figured on doing So
In June, the prevailing fad of getting
something for nothing caused eight
gray wolves and thirty three coyotes
to wander from the straight and mar

The local paper should be found in
every home. No children should grow
up ignorant who can be taught to ap.
preciate the home paper. 1t is said
to be the stepping stone of intelligence
in all those matters not to he found in
books. Give your children a foreign
paper which contains not word
about any person place or things,
which they saw or perhaps ever heard
of, and how could you expect them
to be interested. But let them have
the home paper and read of people
whom they meet and of places of which
they are familiar and soon an interest
is awakened which increases with
every arrival of the local paper. Thus
habit of reading is formed and those
children will read the papers all their
lives and become intelligent men and
women, credit to their ancestors,
strong in knowledge of the world as
it is today. -Basalt Journal

starting in hard luck. Tuesday fire
destroyed his barns and stables, with
all their contents of machinery and
harness and two horses and two stacks
of hay containing about 80 tons The
hay crop had just been put up before
MIR. Weyand started on his mail con-

two children had struggled matches
into the stable where they were play
ing with them. Some paper was fred
and before the little ones knew what
had happened the flames had spread
through the dry hay in the stable
Mrs. Weyand and the children were
alone on the ranch at the time and by
the time she received warning of the
blaze and reached the stable she found
it impossi BILE to rescue even the horses
tied there. The loss is severe one
for MIR. Weyand Craig Courier.
