1T DEPENDS ON WHO WINS.

When the Aspen team won the
Aspen Democrat was exceedingly hap
py but because the Grand Junction
team rightfully received the prize in
the straightaway it starts to knock as
follows:
Captain Joe Hull. of the Aspen
hose team, returned on last nights
Midland from Grand Junction. He
said there was not much chance of
Aspen getting any more purses after
winning the wet test in a walk. The
boys lost the running race yester-
day by a half second, the Grand juno
tion time being 1879 seconds and
the Aspen time 10 seconds. There
was some dispute over the time. how
ever the time keeper for the Aspen
team maintaining that our boys made
it in IS fiat. But there were two
Grand Junction judges against the
Aspen judge-and there you are.
Owing to the disagreement and the
failure to make satisfactory arrange
ments the Aspen team declined to
take part in the other events and will
come today, and will bring back 5000
OF the functions money as a me-
mento of the trip.
1t is claimed Grand Junction i'm
ported some swift men for the foot
races, when 1t was understood that
none but local men would run.
Take your medicine. you Junction
boys. Don't put up hollar Just be-
cause you were beat. The mountain
lads are too much for you anyway.
If you will bring your team to Aspen
we will treat you right even If you
do beat our boys. The Aspen people
are noted for their liberality. Follow
suit, you alkali fellers-Oh no! Don't
get sore 1t will do you no good.

LAND FRAUDS
IN COLORADO

According to the story told by F.
Owenby to the United States land
board, there have been some land
frauds going on in Colorado for the
past few years that promise to equal
those of Wyoming.
Up in Larimer and Boulder coun-
ties it appears that several thousand
acres of government land have been
fraudently filed on and some without
any filing but still held by three or
four men and new settlers and home
steaders have been warned to keep
OF.
This condition has continued for
several years until several small far
mers who live in that neighbofhood
saw the injustice being done to that
country. and as they were cognizant
of the conditions and circumstances
decided to try to open up some of
this wrongfully held land for home
steads. They recently hired an at
torney and he advised them to file
contests on this land. which they did.
with the result that the government
land agent is going to make thor
ough investigation of the matter, and
if fraud has been practiced.- it is
highly probable that federal indict-
ments will be found and these men
brought to trial.
1t is presumed that although every
one in that neighborhood knew of the
matter and the way things stood they
were in poor circumstances and un-
able to stand the expense of filing
contests and bringing the matter be-
fore the federal authorities.
