LOVE FEAST.
NUMERICAL CLUB HAD 1T
MONDAY EVENING
ssnouet at New Camfield Best
of Season-Election of Di-
rectors-Business of
Evening

! The Commercial club of Greeley
held its annual meeting and election
O! directors In the dining room of
tbe Camfield hotel last Monday even
ing. incidentally 1t was voted that
this was the best supper ever enjoyed
by the club during its three years
existence
The new directors are c. T. Neill,
S NJ. Goodman, r. G. Strong, John
Mosher, J. L. Bartlett, A ]. Con-
don, W. l.. Clayton, j. c. Wylie,
Or L. F. Graham.
During the evening the president,
]. NJ. B. Petrikin, and secretary, NJ.
II. Lowe, read their annual reports.
The presidents report was lively
and humorous document, as we'll as
one that recounted some of the things
that the club has done during the
past year. To begin with he showed
how the directors OF the club had
prospered during the year. Nearly
all OF them had built new homes.
enlarged business. bought farms or
taken long trips for pleasure.
Among the substantial things ac-
complished during the year were
the securing OF the Empson packing
plant, the Greeley chautauqua. band
concerts. etc. He also reviewed
some of the good things that had
come to the city during the year In
which the Commercial club had a
less direct influence, such as the new
city hall, the library building, and
finally the new soft water system.
Following the election of directors
j. w. McCreery gave short talk on
how Greeley secured its water sup
ply, the decree for which was given
by Judge Garrigues in the district
court at Fort Collins that same day.
For the past two years or longer
Mr.. McCreery, H. N. Haynes, z. d.
Todd and franklin j. Green have
been working on the legal end OF
gaining title to the water needed for
the new pipe line. So we'll have
they done their work that the city
now has absolute title to seven and
one-half cubic feet of water OF about
the Oldest priority on the Poudre
river and at nominal cost to the
city. Mr.. Haynes followed Mr.. Nc
Creery with few more points along
the same line.
The whole meeting was regular
love feast with everybody satisfied
with the work done during the year.

giant has simply swallowed lug
smaller.
How long do any Of US believe oa'
,i,tle Uome company can stand out
against such company as the Gen
tral when it actually comes to a
matter of competition? The result
will likely be the absorption OF the
little company by the big one. we
might encourage the little fellows for
a time by giving them our business
but those OF us who would be willing
to do that for patriotic or longer
sighted reasons would probably be
prittjpp our teeth all the time while
our neighbors would be buying cleo
tricity for half what we were paying.
Eventually one after another OF US
would backslide and then probably
the big company would no longer
care to buy the little one. Candidly
we hope it may never come to trial
of strength in this case. The little
fellow had better sell out before
that. They can no more afford to
lose the money they have invested in
their plant than any of the rest OF
us can afford to lose our savings of
wears. Likely they will look at it
in the same sensible light.
Now comes the question, then
what are we going to do about 1t!
Shall we adopt municipal ownership
to the extent OF buying, leasing or
stealing the Home plant for the city?
Or, shall we put up an entirely new
plant, or shall we utilize the old |
plant for generating cleo
tricity, or shall we pay the rate that
the big company will ask? These
are questions that sooner or later
will lave to be answered. 1t is
one of the penalties OF our growth as
/ city.
at first glance it would look as
though the municipal ownership idea
would be the panacea in the matter,
out perhaps not so in reality. Gree.
ey has been fairly clean politically,
10 far, but it is getting to be large
.nough and its public utilities are
becoming great enough, whether
privately or publicly owned, to fur
lish considerable graft for the un-
Heretofore the only
lights that have been waged in city
elections have been over little, petty
personal affairs. Hereafter the
fights will be for money, for patron
lge with fairly rich plums attached.
The less municipality owned public
Utilities we have then the better for
he political morals of the city. For
'ur parts we prefer to be grated by
. corporation, to being grated by
,etty politicians.
We are not opposed to public
On the contrary we
'avor 1t in many cases. but it Is not
always an unmixed blessing. What
we would ask now is that the people
who really have the interests of the
city at heart, and who with some |
sort of prophetic eye, can see little
further ahead than right now, begin
to think about this matter of light
ing for the city. If we don't COM
mence now we may pay dearly for
our procrastination later on.

Market Report.

Denver Union Stock Yards
Cattle values took big drop at all
markets last week and prices here
went down in sympathy. Receipts
were liberal but all sold as there
was good demand at the decline.
Grass steers are off % to 80 cents
but on COW stuff the market held
up better as bulk of supply last
week consisted of steers. Good
COWS closed weak to quarter low
er and common kinds off 30 to 40
cents. Eastern declines were fully
as large as those here and specu-
lators and dealers lost money on
nearly everything forwarded during
the week Local prices are still
high compared with eastern quo
tations and shippers will find this
market as good. if not better, than
those at the river. Best fed steers
sold early last week at $3.50 and
Routt county hay feds brought
50 %, North Parkers $500 and
Just fair western Colorado straight
grassers S4.65 freight paid Late
in the week fancy North Parkers
sold at $500 freight paid and just
fair Routt county steers brought
$40 to 4.25. North Park COWS
brougt 400 on Monday, but not
many got above $3.50 later in the
week and a pretty good class of
grass COWS is selling around $3.50
with medium to fair killers rang
ing down to S2.75. Common cows
are very dull. The hog supply was
5,2OO head and demand strong.
Prices are gradually working TO-
ward higher basis and tops sold
today at S6.25.
Sheep receipts were light and
not much trading done here last
week. Demand for sheep and
lambs fair and prices hardly as
firm as week ago but still rela-
lively higher than at eastern mar
kets.

A Cold Blooded Murder.
Prosfsctor.

A Ssport reached Del Norte on
Wed dnesday evening to the effect
that a Mexican sheep herder had
been found dead on Carnero creek,
above the old Epinosa ranch.
1t has since been learned that
the name of thekitlei was, Aguilar
who, with another Mexican boy,
Narcisco Martinez, were herding
sheep for Boyd Wallace, of Center,
Colorado.
Monday morning, Martinez took
the sheep from the camp over a
hill leaving Aguilar to move camp
with the burros. About 2 O'Clock
he came back and found his part
'ner dead The burros were found
tied to a tree and the murdered
man was lying among the camp
effects, ON his left side with one
bullet hole through his body: the
top of his head being literally
blown off by three bullets of large
calibre. a.
The coroner of Saguache county
was notified and held an inquest

Coroner DIR. Courtright, of Bonan-

County Attorney John Palmer.
About one hundred sheep and
cattle. men of that section were
present, full jury was empaneled
rendering a sealed verdict, proving
conclusively that it was premedi-
tated murder by persons known to
the officers. Warrants have been
issued but up to the time of going
to press the parties have not been
While there is a mystery con-
nected with this case, it is thought
that the murderer was acting upon
the Chinaman' theory that dead
men tell no tales" Great excite
ment exists.
We have learned since the above
was chronicled that Marcisco Mar
tinez, wealthy sheep owner, and
Pedro Tafolla, sheep hercler;
have been charged with the crime.

Is the cause or contributing
cause of large proportion of all
chronic human ills. Good vision
does not mean perfect eyes, in
deed, extra dinary vision means
defective eyes and the nervous
strain caused by the effort to over

of mental and physiological dis

digestion, constipation and many
other diseases.

Why People Marry.

Women marry through proXim-
ity. and because the man has op-
posite faults to their own. Men
marry because of proximity and
because the woman has opposite
virtues to their own. The woman
marries the man she does because
in her judgment, living with him
will be happier than with any 9th
er man of her acquaintance. The
man marrles the woman because
she puts the idea in his head and
made him believe that she was the
one object in the world he wanted
most.
Over all is wise arrangement
of nature.
If little women married little
men, and big women married big
men, the human race would grad
ually tend to the production of
millions of dwarfs and giants. If
amiable women married only aim
able men, and cross patches mated
with each other, the temper of the
human race would tend to ex-
