HAVE A GREAT TIME.

The members of the B. B. Tennis
club and a number of their friends
had glorious time last night at q
bonfire celebration over on orchard
mesa near the big railroad reservoir.
During the afternoon the young
men of the club had a dray wagon
haul a great quantity of wood over
to the site Of the celebration. About
seven o'clock the party rode over
there were twenty-five ladies and gen,
tlemen. An immense fire was start
ed going. Supper was then prepar-
ed the young ladies acting as cooks,
1t was regular campfire repast and
the different viands were deliciously
prepared.
After the supper an hour or two
ives spent in singing, story telling and
indulging in other pleasant pastimes
within the glare of the camp fire. 1t
was a jolly gathering and the merry
makers ended their festivities very
reluctantly at late hour and came
home.

We glory in the fact that thus far
in life we have never attempted to
deny the name of the place of our
birth. The Republican publication
seems to believe that reference to
our place of nativity is a crime. Never
having committed any crime at our
boyhood's home and knowing that
there are no officers of the law look
ing for us, We fail to understand the
attempted witticism. On the other
hand, knowing that so many people
have good and sufficient reasons for
hiding from the general public, the
place of their birth and oftentimes
their real name and identity, We can
see why some people have purpose
in feeling so tender upon the point
of their birthplace. Far be it from us
to intimate that the editor of the
other sheet fears to give publicity to
his birthplace. We simply mention
in passing that human derelicts may
be found all over the west, who for
very particular reasons. find it con-
venient to keep. very quiet upon the
subject of their birthplace and upon
all other events concerning their
early history.

A very slight comparison of The
Sentinel with the other sheet will
convince anyone that the other paper
has to go long way to be included
in the same class, which it hopes
some day to be. OF course If the
stockholders can be bled once or twice
again for revenue. it may eventually
succeed in winning a position in the
daily newspaper field. The Sentinel
being solely dependent upon the reve.
nue. it has earned, with no complais-
ant stockholders to back it, is depend
ent upon the support of the public for
its advancement. This they have
given it literally, for which we are
appreciative. The people know an
Independent paper when they see 1t
and they can always depend upon
this paper, at least they always have
in years past and during the period
of the strife in this city, which di-
vided it into two great camps TO take
an independent position on all pub
lie questions.

THE PLANS ACCEPTED, A VAST
LY IMPORTANT ACTION.

| The most important action the city
of Grand Junction, by its mayor and
board of aldermen, has ever taken,
took place last night at the city hall.
The plans and specifications for the
new wateTyorks system for the city
OF Grand Junction, in their amended
form, were finally accepted by the
city council.
For several weeks past the plans
and specifications for the new system
have been under the most critical ex-
animation. The special water COM
mittee especially, have called to their
assistance expert authority and also
that of City Engineer Haskell and n
most critical examination, minute in
the least important details was given
these plans. The council has met sew
cral times and the plans have been
submitted to the council as whole.
At the session last night, after sew
eral hours of examination, the motion
was finally passed by n unanimous
vote accepting the plans for the sys-
TEN.
Previous to the call of the vote up
on the question of the acceptance of
the plans Mayor Bunting called upon
City Engineer Haskell and Superin-
tendent of waterworks Vedder to ex-
press themselves upo the quality and
character of the plans and cpecifica-
tions.. Mr.. Haskell stated that he
had given the plans much study and
had gone into every detail with the
special committee and he was fully
satisfied in his mind that the city had
been wise in their selection of engi-
ncers and that the plans met his full
approval in every particular.
Superintendent Vedder stated that
he was exceedingly well pleased with
the plans and had been given oppor-
tunity for very close examination and
that If the waterworks system of the
city of Grand junction, were built
in accordance with the plans and
specifications submitted to and nc.
ceptcd by council the people would
have one of the finest water systems
i'm all the west.
The council was glad to be fortifi
ed with these expressions from the
other city officials and immediate
ly following the plans We're accepted
Practically all the detail work now
is finished and the council is up to
the point of securing bids for the sy's
tenn. Much time has been spent and
the work has been very slow, but
there is the high satisfaction to ever,
member of council that, they hav,
not rushed anything connected with
the system in any particular giving
full consideration to all material
points.
The Sentinel considers that an ep-
och was passed at the meeting last
night In the history of the city, which
means much for its future greatness
