Advice leads us up to
a stone wall throusn
which few of us are able
to pound a passage.

Many times l have wished that l
could write you more closely on the
scenes where some of my lunch hour
talks are given.
This month / spent a half hour at
noon with some thirty mill men and
while l interested them some they in
terested me much.
1t would be great recreation for me
to have bench in that mill and spend
a half day a week at it making con
venient things for the house or play
things for the children.
1t does me good to work with work
ers and think with thinkers. Once |
sat on the bench with a Judge An
other time | sat in pulpit with a
minister Again l helped a farmer
burn the brush in his apple orchard.
For few weeks | took charge OF n
college friends medical practice in a
village while he went to California for
a vacation. wish l could do your
work for a week and let you do the
things you wish to.
What would you do If you had plenty
Of time and money? What do you
want to know more about? This is
WHAT WANT 10 KNOW more ABOUT
how to help people get beyond that
stone wall up to which good advice
leads them and there leaves them.
1t seems to me am too slow in in
teresting them in selfefort and I
know too little about the tools and how
to use them. Just when | am ready to
give up some one tells me that | have
helped him or her get through and
then begin with new breath to en-
courage others and explain the plan
OF action.
For long time have thought that
Providence pushed me into this and
that trouble to have me learn how to
get out in order TO tell others how to
get out. but now am beginning to see
that He jerks me out when am ready
to give up and sink.
If He is willing to jerk me out he
certainly must be willing to do the
same by you or any one else provided
there is desire to live to do some
thing worth doing.

Jones Pays The Freight

Just as we were starting to work off
this issue of the Post, w. NJ Jones
chief clerk of the G. F. d | company
rushed into the Office holding in his
hand two silver dollars which he seem
ed very anxious to get rid of. He
was assured that he was in the right
place and the transfer of coin was
made Immediately, everyone in the
office supposing he was paying for last
year or two or three years back but
when the list was looked up, as was
necessary in order to give a receipt,
it was found that year ago he had
paid for 1905 and the two plunks from
which he had so recently separated
himself, would put him in good stand
ing with this establishment to Janu-
ary 1907.
The editor was surprised to find this
condition of affairs but not so with
Jones, who explained that he could
not conscientiously read paper until
1t was paid for and that he had not
particularly enjoyed the last issue OF
the Post because he knew at the time
that his subscription had expired and
that. he said, was the reason he want,
ed his receipt before this issue came
out. He promised ''never to let it
happen again" and we stopped the
press long enough to give Jones a
chance to get back to his Office with
his receipt.

APPOINTMENTS FOR FEBRUARY

nut little 10 attend to at this week =

Monday was spent principally in
he allowance of bills. hut there was
not mach in this line, since nearly all
bills had been passed upon a: last

At O'Clock Tuesday County Clerk
| Cardnell called the board to order. AMI
stated that that was the proper time
for the reorganization of the board in
accordance with the law.
Commissioner Jessup at once nomi-
mated Amos p Ralston as chairman
of the board for the ensuing year.
The nomination was promptly second.
ed by Commissioner Brennan, and
both of his colleagues having voted
for Mr. Ralston the clerk declared
him elected chairman of the board for
another year. Mr. Ralston thanked
mis- confrrres for their confidence in
him, and the board at once proceeded
to business under the new order of
things.
The first order taken up was the
election of county attorney. There
were three applicants for this position,
G. W. Darrow, ]. L. Noonan and ]
W. Dollison. Mr.. DaIrow. who has
served in this capacity during the

Clark FdvorS Grazing Fee

J. Walter CLARK, the Grand juno
tion sheep man, was in Glenwood
Tuesday, the object of his visit being
to make application for grazing per
mits for the Turkey creek range in
Eagle county which he used last sum
mer.
Mr.. Clark does net hesitate to de
clare that in his opinion the govern
ment control of the grazing areas of
the forest reserves is decidedly to the
advantage of both cattle and sheep
men who expect to make stockgrow
ing permanent business.
He says it will interfere with the
big stockmen and the speculators
whose ambition is to make the great
est gain possib BILE this year and then
move on. These men, whether run
ming sheep or cattle, will not be al
lowed henceforth to overstock and eat
out the range. but this will prove
great protection to those who expect
to remain in the country and this
feature alone Mr.. Clark thinks is
worth more to the stockmen than the
nominal grazing fee. SIN fact"
said Mr.. Clark. if the department
will do as they say they will in the
matter of range protection and will
keep the administration of the service
free from favoritism and graft. the
small grazing fee demanded will prove
the best investment the stockmen can
make"
Mr. Clark will Craze about 5000
sheep in the Eagle country beyond the
dead line agreed to by the cattlemen,
and while he says the department has
established some rules which he thinks
will work a hardship to the stockmen,
he feels confident these will be mod
fled to suit the local conditions as
soon as the matter can be properly
presented to the department.

To Hunt Mountain Lioas

Jake Borah, who gained distinction
as the chief guide for President Roos
evelt on his memorable Colorado hunt,
has planned big lion hunt to be
pulled off near Gypsum, beginning
February Z and lasting four days.
This will be something on the plan
of the big hunt at Debeque few
years ago. except that lions are per
haps more plentiful in the Gypsum
than in the Debeque country. The
fact that it is also nearer to Glen
wood, Leadville and Aspen will be to
the advantage of Gypsum.
Jake has probably the finest bunch
of lion dogs in Colorado. and big
time and lots of sport can safely be
guaranteed.
1t is thought the railroads will
make special rates from Denver,
Grand Junction and intermediate
points to Glenwood and on account
of the the superior hotel accommoda
tions here this will be the central
point of attack, and the Rio Grande
has been asked to make special
daily rate to Gypsum and return 30
that those who desire can spend each
night in Glenwood returning to the
strenuous life with Jake and the lions
the next morning.
