the great commercial houses of the
country has for its motto Keep the
Quality Up" having reference to the
material used I'm the manufacture of
the merchandise sold by the house.
So we think a most excellent motto
for the promoters of the Y. NJ. c. a.
would be. keep It up" No one can
have any complete conception what
work will be accomplished for the
young men of this city. through a
well organized Y. NJ. C. A. We have
just received paper sent from the
east. by a friend who has been keep
ing in touch with our work here in
Grand junction for a Y. NJ. c. a.
which gives in detail an anniversary
celebration of its Y. NJ. c. A. On
the program of the exercises are the
names OF men. as officers of the organ
ization. who stand among the high

yers. physicians. all vie with each
other to serve on the roll of the or

ICE IN UPPER VALLEY

The creamery and City Meat Mar
ket. each has had gang of men cut
ting ice during the forenoons of the
last few days. The ice is rather thin.
and none too good. but It is better
than none. and If this spring weather
continues it certainly cannot get any
better. If by chance a cold wave
comes whooping across from Kansas
or Montana. and congeals everything
in sight, the thin ice can be dumped
out No ice at all would mean that
the creamery must close, the meat
shop go out of business, and worse
than all. the ice cream soda joint pull
down its sign and leave our feverish
summer thirst to the insipid and un-
romantic ministrations of creek

George F.. Baer. president of the
Reading road. is Of pure Pennsylvan-
ia Dutch stock not far removed. This
should give him an abundance of
good homely sense, but it does not
seem that it has Power has chang
ed the man and what came to him by
heredity. He seems TO move on the
theory the whole state is peopled
by a set of Doors. who should not pre-
sumo to solve the motives of railway
magnates. when they want every
thing and anything in sight. Baer
missed a guess the other day how
ever. he addressed a communication
to the state assembly OF Pennsyl-
vanla, so long held in the bondage
Of the Pennsylvania railroad. he pre-
sumed that the bonds were still In
tact. Great was his surprise and cha
grin to have his communication hoot-
ed down and out and his representa-
tive almost run out of the assembly
hall 1t was a new experience for
Baer. 1t presages new conditions.
the first of which was the passage
of law making the rate per mile on
railroads in the state two cents, in
stead of three What may one not
expect in reform, II the Pennsylvan-
ia legislature has begun to rid her
self of the incubus of It's railroad
domination.

styles of penmanship has left the chi
rography of the average student in a
condition which represents no style
and is far below the average condi-
tion of penmanship among scholars
of twenty years ago. The copy book

and the student may become fair

GEORGE KINDEL CONFIDENT


George Kindel. the relentless foe
of high freight rates, is confident
that he will win out in his case again
81 the roads charging exhorbitant rat
es into Denver. The following is
from yesterdays Denver News:
George j. Kindel who has won
several points in the fight against
eNhorbitant freight rates by railroads
is prosecuting a bitter fight against
the alleged excessive charges made
by the express companies to the small
shippers of Denver He asked the
Chamber of Commerce to cooperate
with him. but that body has a COM
mittee investigating the matter for
itself and has notified Mr.. Kindel
that until this committee has report
ed it can take no action in conform
ity with his request for joint opera
tion.
"If the chamber of commerce will
back me to the extent of 1000 with
out any Intervention. says Mr.. Kin
del, 81 will undertake to get relief
for Denver and | will wager $1,000
that l can force the express compan-
les to lower their rates at least 20
per cent.
Denver pays 90 per cent higher
rates from New York than Omaha. al
though the distance is only 25 per
cent greater. Denver pays $3.50
higher express rates on 100 pounds
from San Francisco than Omaha does
I can win this fight If ! receive the
proper backing"
