Sugar Factory Notes.

The great size OF the coal pile indicates
that the factory has provided an ample
supply of this all-important article. And
it takes an enormous amount to furnish
the power to keep SO great a mass of
machinery in operation day and night for
long campaign.
The factory has had good system Of
water pipes for fire purposes, but it has
not been fully satisfactory until this week,
when the construction of new line pro-
vines ample fire protection for all portions
of the grounds.
A large force Of men are now employ
ed in getting the machinery in shap, for
the opening of the campaign.
1t is expected. that the harvesting of
the beets will begin the first week in Sep
tember and that the making of sugar will
commence about the 10th. The ct ambition
Of the fields promise very large crop OF
beets of the usual high percentage char
acteristic of the Arkansas valley.

The publication Of the saloon IL
eensinR ordinance after SO long fight
to aave Il of has caused much COM
ment. Its publication in the Enter
prise was quite unexpected to every
body, especially to the Enterprise.
which has certainly not deserved such
patronage by reason Of aid given the
saioon party. Why the publication
was ordered in the Enterprise is a
eonundrum.
The fact OF the publication Of the
ordinance in a supplement has caused
some speculation. The ordinance was
published in a supplement simply be-
cause il was easier and quicker so to
do. Publication dav in n country
newspaper office Is always 4 day of
hurry, no matter how much planning
is done in advance. This is caused by
both news and advertising copy pill
ing up on that particular day. The
saloon ordinance was run in a supple
mcnt because il was easier to do that
than to work over and rcarrangc 4
page OF standing advertisements to
give place in the regular shccet.
Was the publication in a supple
ment legal' Lawyers will differ on
this as they do on most other qucs-
tions. The question of the legality of
a legal advertisement in a supplement
has never been raised in the Enter
prise office. The nearest to it was
few weeks ago when the Pueblo
land office directed that certificates
of publication should rccitc the fact
that the publication was not done in
supplement. This. however. may
be a notion OF the U. S. authorities
which is not shared by states. coun-
ties or cities.
That the publication of legal adver-
tising in supplements is not unusual
we submit the following instance
CLEANED from the columns OF the En-
tcrprise during the present year:
March %. Commissioners proceed
ing; April 70. call for warrants: May

Commissioners proceedings; June /,

In other counties in the valley such
important advertisements as the list
of nominations have been published
In supplements. and the semi-annual
statements of county clerks have also
been published in supplements.
So much for the facts now for
some hypothetical conditions and
opinions:
Had the. Enterprise been the only
paper in the city the advertisement,
would have been refused in order to
defeat the proposed outrage. It is
possible that under such circum-
stances suit might have been brought
and the paper compelled to publish
the ordinance. but that would have ta-
ken time, and time is just now a
valuable auxiliary in the good work
OF fighting against the .recstablish-
ment of saloons in Rocky Ford.

refusal OF the Enterprise to publish
would have worked to insure no pub

The trouble with Bent's friends is
that u Swink gets the nomination for

lication. the ordinance would have
been refused.
Had we known that publication in
a supplement was Of questionable le-
gaiity. and with that knowledge in
serted the ordinance in a supplement,
the extraordinary circumstances con-
fronting the city just now would have
justified such publication. What are
the conditions; 4 bare majority OF
the council. their seats secured by a
breeeh OF good faith in relation to an
election agreement. and holding its
power by a majority OF one in one
ward. and that majority now ques-
toned by the courts. propose TO defy
the will OF very great majority OF
the people by forcing upon them a
most obnoxious and harmful instiiu-
ton.
Within . few weeks AID. Stoop and
Niehoies will in all probability be de-
privcd OF place. yet on their slim ten
ure OF Office they propose To force
an evil which will last for months
after they have been retired 10 pri-
vate life. Rarely will there be found
community more nearly unanimous
on question OF public policy than Is
Rocky Ford just now in its opposi..
ton to the saloon. But questions OF
good faith and fair dealing with their
/ friends and neighbors seem TO have
no effect upon the license majority.
and very radical measures to prevent
the contemplated outrage would be
justihable.

Tho Santa Fe Has Purchased the
Arkansas Valley Railroad.

Il seems definitely settled that the
Santa Fe has absorbed tho Arkansas
Valley railroad. While resident officials
Of either company do not give out any
positive information. It is nevertheless a
fact that the deal has been closed.
The Arkansas Valley road is being
built by the American Beet Sugar COM
pany from Rocky Ford to Lamar. dis
tanes Of 65 miles. The line is now COM
pleted to Shelton. an ambitious new town
in the western part Of Holbrook valley
eight miles east Of Rocky Ford. The
grading is almost completed to Horse
creek. 25 miles east Of here and much
work has. been done along the line en-
tirely to Lamar. From Shelton to Las
Animas the survey Of the Arkansas VAL
ley road and that of the Holly g. Swink
road are parallel and both are parallel to
the Santa Fe at distance from five 70
ten miles. The acquiring Of the Arkansas
Valley road by the Santa Fe means the
abandonment Of one of the new lines. as
the Holly & Swink road has been SAINT a
Fe proposition from the start
The Arkansas Valley road was project
cd by the American Beet Sugar company
primarily to secure large beet acreage
from the rich Holbrook country and the
eastern end to tap new territory for the
company's factories at Lamar and Las
Animas, the latter factory now being un-
der contract. The sale Of the road to the
Santa Fe was doubtless made under such
conditions as to insure its use for the pro-
motion Of the sugar beet culture. equally
as effectively as If owned by the Ameri-
can Beet Sugar company. Being manu-
faeturers Of sugar and having no ambition
to run a railway system. the sugar COM
pany was doubtless not unwilling to
transfer the road. since its construction
has insured the desired enlargement of
sugar beet territory.
While tho citizens Of, Rocky Ford had
hopes that the Union Pacific would Sc
cure this road ard give the city two
great through lines. the road will be
great advantage under the ownership Of
the Santa Fe. 1t will traverse a fine
agricultural section and Rocky Ford will
reap much benefit as the western termi-
nus of an important branch.
