THAT ATTACK ON K1NDEL.
what Other Papers Think of Aupper.
eIe's Demand That Freight EN-
pert Forget Grand
Junction

Junction.
The Grand Junction Chamber ol
Commerce has had spat with Geo
| j. Kindel, the freight rate expert
over a queer subject. Kindel In
many instances. and with charts, has
\ proven that Grand Junction is the
top notcher in frieghts. and pays
la higher rate than any. other point
I between New York and San Fran
cisco. In letter to Kindel. the sec
retary of the Chamber of Commerce
requests him to give the matter as
little publicity as possible, as agita-
ton of these high rates Injuries the
chances to secure immigrants to the
Grand Valley.
The Grand Junctionites also assert
that because of the high productive
ness of the Grand Valley the farmers
are better able to pay the higher
They can amply stand much more
than the farmers of the east are able
to pay much lower rates. Kindel
in reply says he has by his efforts
caused the railroads to reduce freight
from S1.7O a hundred to S1.45 from
Colorado common points to Grand
Junction, and that his efforts will
cause the interstate commerce COM
missioners to reduce rates for Grand
Junction, whether the Chamber of
Commerce viii agree to ii or not
Montrose Enterprise.
The above will strike the average
reader as about the most ridiculous
request ever made by Chamber of
Commerce.
The idea that agitation for lower
freight rates will injure the locality
to be benefited is a joke worthy of
the most popular humorist. Then
again the idea that Grand Junction
is so favored by nature and the ele-
ments that she can stand higher rates
than any other place reminds US of
an incident of our boyhood days
when we were given the assignment
of measuring for a threshing ma
chine that was doing business at the
stacks of nOtoriously tricky old
granger in Nebraska. After holding
the job for a few hours the old man
came around and raised a kick over
the way we were doing our work.
When we protested that everything
clared that there was mistake some
where for the amount of wheat in the
bin far exceeded what the indicator
of the machine showed, and he in
sisted on turning the blamed thing
ahead fifty bushels. He declared that
he did not want to beat the threshing
machine out of anything and almost
shocked our boss to death with his
liberality. Twice more during the
time we were working for him he
turned the Indicator ahead fifty BUSH
els. declaring that we were threshing
more grain than appeared. The Sc
quel developed next spring when he
worked off most of the wheat for
seed by showing intending purchasers
that II had run fifty bushels to the
acre machine measure the previous
year 1t is possible that Grand Jnuc-
tion can afford to waste money on
high freights in order to be able to
boast that they can afford it, but here
in Paonia we wish Kindel would cut
'em in half two or three times. And
we don't care how much noise he
makes about it eith0r.-Paonia

the decision at meeting held in Hun

been any question but that the upper

when the good people of our neigh
boring town signified their willing
ness to join us and help make it a
rousing, successful celebration, the
matter was as good as settled.
As the financial basis of a celebra-
ton is the first matter of considera-
tion, it was decided that this town
could raise 5000 or better, and COM
mittee was appointed to solicit the
funds. In fifteen minutes one-half of
this sum was in sight, and no trouble
is anticipated on that score. While
contributions will be gladly receiv-

they will not be solicited, and no part
