WILL FAVOR 4 LOCK CANAL
PRESIDENT PREPARING A MES
 SAGE TO CONGRESS.
In It He Will Favor the COastruc- ton of n Lock Canal Across the
 Panama Istltmus.

Washington, Jan. 16-President Roosevelt is preparing to send to con sress a message which will favor a lock canal. He had conferences with sev- eral members of the senate committee on interoceanic canals. including Sen ators Kittredge. Knox, Dryden, Hop kiEs and Ankeny.
 The committee has in It's possession an advance copy of the report fur nished by the president, for use in ex- amining Chief Engineer Stevens when be appeared before the committee at the opening of the investigation made by the senate. The report contains the views of the consulting board as ex- pressed before the foreign members left this country, together with the amend ments that have been made since, and to which Gen Davis is now getting their indorsement
 The message of the president will fla vor the construction of a lock canal, on the ground that it is in the interest of the present generation and not for posterity, and that it can be built at less cost of time and money. It Is said that the president incidentally asked the republican members of the commit tee to support the nomination of Jo- seph B. Bishop to be member of a canal commission and to use every ef- fort to prevent indiscrminate reduc- tions of the salaries of canal officials, which he fears may be the result Of the inyestieatiOn.

EXPERT ACCOUNTANT TO AUDIT
BOOKS OF ASSOCIATION.

Inc annual meeting of the stock
holders of the Grand Junction Fruit
Growers association which was held
Saturday morning and afternoon at
the county court house adjourned
about four O'Clock in the afternoon
to meet again on Saturday. February
5rd. at which time it will take up the
matter of the regular routine bust
ness necessary at the annual meet
ings.
AS stated Saturday the readings of
the annual reports of DIR. f. r. Smith
the secretary and J. F. Moore the
manaser took up the greater part of
Saturdays meeting
Following the reading of Manager
Moore's report in he afternoon there
was general discussion of matters
pertaining to the good of the assoc
iation.
Perhaps the most important deveI-
opment during the discussion was
the presentation of resolution by
parties representing a number of the
fruit growers who are members of the
association which provides that an ex-
pert accountant be employed for the
purpose of auditing the books of the
association during the two years last
passed.
After the reading of the resolu-
ton it was moved that it be adopted.
There was some little opposition at
first but finally a motion prevailed
that the preliminary or introduction
to the resolution be cut off. The reso-
luton was then voted upon and was
passed by a practically unanimous
vote.
Manager Moore anr Secretary
Smith state that the books have been
audited in proper manner each
year but if the members so desire, the
officials certainly have no objection to
such a movement. DIR. Smith, the
secretary states that the books will
undoubtedly be found correct in every
detail as the association has always
been conducted in a STRAIGHTFORWARD
and practical manner. The session
Saturday afternoon was a highly ill-
teresting one. On the adjourned ses-
sion on Feb. 3rd a board of directors
for the year will be elected.
Next Saturday there will be a spec
tally called meeting of the associa-
ton for the purpose of discussing and
voting upon the propositions of in
creasing the number of directors from
seven TO nine and of increasing the
capital stock from $4,000 to $780,
900.
The resolution referred to above
and in fun is as follows:

BAR ASSOCIATION ORGANIZED


Sunday night at the court house
the attorneys of Grand Junction met
Tor the purpose of organizing a bar
association. Out of the total of twenty
attorneys who practice in this city,
seventeen were present
The meeting was called to order
shortly after enight o'clock The
election of officers was taken up after
| short preliminary session. The fol-
lowing officers were elected to serve
turing the ensuing year:
President-James w. Bucklin.
Vice President-Walter S. Sulli-
van.
Secretary=Mr. Welsh.
Treasurer-Judge Van Hoorebelte.
A committee to draft bylaws to
govern the association was then APP
pointed. This committee is compos-
ed of Attorneys Fry, Carnahan and
Greer
committee to arrange for ban
luet to be given. probably on the last
night OF the March session of the
Mesa county district court Attor-
ueys Rhone, Caswell, Coles Marsh
and Sternberg were made members
of this committee.
The committees are to report at
the next meeting of the association.
The matter of selecting a name for
the organization was discussed at
length but a name was not fully 1e-
termined upon. II is very probable
that the association will be called the
Mesa County Bar association, i'm order
thai all attorneys Egacticing in the
county whether in Grand Junction OF

may be included in the membership
Of the association. An invitation TO
Join will be extended to every attor-
ney in the county After discuss
ing several other matters of minor
Importance the association adjourn
ed to meet two weeks from last Sat
urday night at the court house
The meeting Saturday night was an
enthusiastic one and there is no doubt
hat the association will be strongly
md permanently organized.
In the past several efforts have
been made to organize a bar associa-
ton but not until Saturday night no
complete organization has ever been
perfected.

A good many readers of the Trib-
une know of the sad case described
in this article ana 1t is right that all
of them should know A woman and
two little girls are living in the south
west part of town on sixth street who
have been for several months de
pendent upon the kindness of neigh
bors. 1t is not the purpose of the
Tribune to advertise restitution but
there are elements in this case which
divide ones heart between tender
pity and burning Indignation. This
woman's husband whose name Is
Macklin left her five months ago to
seek work in some other place. left
his wife and children without a bed
to sleep on or even stove to cook on.
She receives letters from him in
which he says he is working most Of
the time but Is unable to draw any
pay. During the whole time of his
absence he has sent her seven dol
lars. To make the situation worse
the poor woman is daily expecting the
arrival of an addition to the family.
No more comment is needed. There
is surely some way to bring the hus-
band back to the side of his wife
where his place is at a time as this,
and II he falls to do his part. then
send him to jail. Macklin is now in
Trinidad, Colorado.

NO MORTGAGE FORECLOSED
ON PALISADE RANCH LAND

A very significant fact proving the
money making power of the land here
is that not one mortgage has been
foreclosed in this end of the valley
on ranch land. This is the more sig
nificant because n large per cent of
the land was bought by people of
small means who were compelled to
go deeply in debt The fact is that
land here pays for itself in five or six
years at the most and sometimes in
three, whereas in the Mississippi val
ley states a man is lucky il he pays
for place in a life time.
