Quart Was Too Much for Him.

In trying to satisfy his taste for
whiskey by drinking a full quart Of
it at one sitting, Joseph Tracy,
laborer at the Kingsbury Brothers
mas day, lapsed.. Into Inconsistencies
in the midst of his feast and two
days afterwards the undertaken had
him in the morgue.
Coroner Macy was called to the
place the day after Christmas and
returned with the remains last We'd
nesday night. The man, who was
about 81 years Of age, is unknown to
any of his fellow workmen, having
been with them only about a month
and giving very little information
about himself.

KICK ON LIGHT BILLS.

Patrons of the Northern Colorado
Power company who are on meter
service in many instances are finding
an unaccountably large increase in
the size of their light bills, unwar-
ranted by the darker days and longer
evenings of the winter months The
Tribune's own bill for November
and December was nearly one-half
more than for the corresponding
months last year, when the workshop
was run nine hours as against eight
hours day since January /. 1906.
We have reason to believe that a
part of this company's meters are de-
fectiye. and register from FIVE to
twenty per cent more current than Is
actually used. If you are getting
power from this company and are on
. meter, and after due economy has
been used in the consumption Of
light, your bills look too big, kick !;
refuse to pay your light bill and call
in an expert. There Is no use In be-
ing robbed by the new corporation.
It il hoped that some time the
home company may be able to give
more and steadier service than it is
now able to furnish. Evidently the
only salvation OF Greeley light users
is to encourage the independent
plant.

Cooperative Company.

John f. Rocho has Incorporated
the hrsr cooperative stock company
in Gree ley, TO take over the business
N the Red Front Bazaar. The
officers OF the company will be John
=. Rocho, president and general
manager; John Mueller. vice presi.
dent: NJ, I, Rocho, secretary and
treasurer. They with C. f. Miller
and Fred Rocho will con institute the
hard of directors. The company Is
Incorporated for s25, 900.
The plan is for every clerk IN the
store to take certain amount of
stock and to share in the profits OF
the business to the amount OF stock
held. In case clerk has not the
money with which to buy the stock
he or she can, nevertheless. take a
certain amount of stock and give a
note to Mr.. Rocho in return, secured
by the stock, and pay seven per cent
interest on the face value of the
stock, and then share In the profit of
the stock the same as though the
stock was actually paid for. What
ever profit may then accure on the
stock can he used to apply on the
purchase price Of the stock.

THIRD TERM LEAGUE.

Edward A. Homer, former Lead
VILE man, has broken loose in Chi
cago and has organized the Roosevelt
Third Term League, and is going to
give Teddy third term whether he
wants it or not. He says Roosevelt
is the only man the people can trust.
Horner calls himself a "red hot"
democrat who has been driven to
verge of bankruptcy by the machina-
tions of the System"
Here are some of the things the
league declares in its platform:
''We are not unmindful of the fact
that Theodore Roosevelt himself de-
clared in 1904, that under no cir
cumstances would ne be candidate
for, or, would he accept another
nomination
I'VE challenge, however, his right
to refuse to accept the presidency of
the United States for third term,
in the face Of the peoples demand,
especially at time when so many
undertakings Of the highest import
ance have been brought about and
set in motion by him, and 30 subject
them to the danger Of an untried and

Erie Saloon Me n Arrested.

'Undersheriff Fred Williams re-
turned Saturday morning from Erie,
where he went Friday to serve capias
on all of the saloon keepers, with
one exception, for violating the Sun.
day closing law. The exception was
William Davis, who is said to have
been good. but his place of business
was burned down the morning before
the officer arrived. 1t is believed by
his friends here that the tire was of
incendiary origin, caused because his
business rivals believed that Davis
had turned informer on them.
Those upon whom warrants were
served to appear here for hearing
next week were Hunter g. Woods,

Cope, Charles Alaux and Byron

improved successor, to whom public
confidence would be reluctantly ex-
tended. II at all.
''Manifestly. the selection of its
president rests with the people.
The public, alone. is judge. No
man may say he will not accept. II
is not the province of Theodore
Roosevelt TO say he will or will not
be the president. He, who acts as
president, acts solely as servant of
the people. and when called by
them, must come.
I'VE further hold. that in point
of fact his reelection in 1905 would
not constitute a third term. He has
been elected to the presidency but
once. Inasmuch, however. as the
issue has been so generally spoken OF
as third term, the league has
adopted the title.
I'VE, therefore, in the interest Of
public welfare, demand that Theo-
dore Roosevelt be nominated for the
presidency and be reelected IN 1908,
and to that end hereby pledge our
support"

Aee,E coLLEcx MIDDLE.

There appears to be q pretty good
sized disagreement among the faculty
of the State Agricultural college,
and unless the matter is Settled be-
fore tnat time, the state legislature
At its January session will likely be
asked to take hand in the affair.
The trouble is over what shall con-
stitute curriculum, or line of study at
the institution. Prof. w. l.. Carlyle
is at the head of the faction that
wants the school to be strictly a
technical school for those who want
to study agriculture and stock rais-
ing. Prof. L. G. Carpenter Is at
NE head of the faction that wants to
include a part classical course with
the technical course.
It is hard to tell just which fac
tion Is in the right. 1t is true that
there are plenty Of schools and COL
leges for classical education where
those interested In this line of edu-
cation can secure such course, and
that most of the students attending
the agricultural college do so in
order to learn scientific farming; but
it is equally true that little book
learning along with the technical or
scientific training would be good
thing also, and to many of the stu
dents who attend the agricultural
college this course must be both a
classical and technical education.
The matter, at any rate, is hardly a
question for inexperienced Legislators
to settle, rs what many Of them do
not know about schools and colleges
and educational methods would I'll

THE SPIRIT OF PROGRESS.

quota Of troubles and disappoint.
ments in this section, as we'll as in
other parts Of the country, the
trouble has been more with and for
the individual than for the COM
munity or any considerable portion
of the country IS whole. In an
other part of this issue will be found
general resume Of the years busi-
ness in Weld county, n represented
by the crops grown and some Of the
progress made. While these figures
may not be absolutely correct, it
would take nuch longer to prove
them incorrect than would be worth
anybody's time. At any rate, they
are as near right as they can be OBJ
tained without house to house can
vass of the county to learn the exact
amount of the production OF each
farm. Taken then as whole the
prosperity of the county has never
shown to better advantage than in
this years crop reports.
The reports from all over the
country. as shown by the government
statistics, give q good, healthy
growth of agriculture in every line.
The prices, except on few commo-
dities, have also been pretty good.
Taking it altogether, conditions are
very favorable for continuance of
the present good times. There is
no doubt, however, that we are grow
ing too fast. The development Of
natural resources rather than the
adoption of existing conditions to
our needs, is responsible for the
growth. We are also developing
these resources rather faster than we
should. Instead of getting out Of
old Industries all there could he got
ten out, we develop new country,
creating more land, as it were, out
of desert, and more or less waste the
resources already at our disposal.
Some day there will be no more land
to conquer, no more timber to waste
and no more water to develop. Then
We will be lost for lime, because
we are not in the habit of taking
good care of that which we already
have, as all We have had to do was
to reach out our hands for more.
OF course, there is no way In which
this false spirit Of progress can be
checked. The whole nation is im-
bued with it, and until every acre of
raw land is brought under the plow,
every tree in the forests is cut down
and every drop of water in the
streams has been made use of, we
will not stop to adjust ourselves to
conditions. Then some of US will
immigrate to other parts of the
world where nature still lies open
and wild for conquest, while the rest
will begin to study the long and
hard lesson of economy of our re-
sources.
If something Of financial panic
should then strike US we may blame
only the spirit Of conquest that has
moved rs through the past few years.

on the lines embodied in the recommen

The Agricultural Committee of Mr..

taxation at low rates of imported

be raised for land purchase, the Gre

have been the policy which carried a

what it succeeded in doing there may
be easily repeated in other farming
