REMAINS AT OLD PRICE
DEALERS TO CONFER WITH PRO
DUcERs REGARDING MILK.

After a protracted session the milk deal
ers of this city last nit in Opre.heimer's
Hall discussed he proposed increase In
the price of milk. No decision was reached.
but a committee Of six local dealers was
appointed to confer with q similar commit
tee representing the producers to have
complete understanding between the two
associations as to prices.
This committee, which consists of ]. T.
Barber ]. j. Bowles, f. r. Homer, W. A.
Simpson, Howard Griffith and J. W. Castle
will report at the next meeting of the deal
ers, which takes place the second week in
October. In the meantime the price of
milk will remain at its present figures-1s
cents gallon Wholesale and cents a
quart retail.
In comforting with the producers COM
mittee the dealers committee Will strongly
oppose. the proposed raise in wholesale
rates from Is to ~ cents a gallon.
George 3. FarQuhar, president OF the
Milk Dealers Association, presided last
evening. He attributed the proposed ad-
vance to the high prices of feed, labor and
other necessities
Views of Dealer.
One of the largest retail dealers In the
city last night, In discussing the proposed
raise in prices by the wholesalers, said 1t
was his opinion that this action was IN
caleO Tor, Notwithstanding their argument
as to the increased cost Of labor and feed
My advice to the citizens of Washing
ton would be-" said he, Ito stop the use of
milk. as far as possible. and the producers,
who would then be forced to find other
means of disposing of their commodity,
would quickly come to the conclusion that
they could sell it at Is cents a gallon and
still find a profit. Their argument that
there Is no money IN the business at the
present rate does not hold, in my opinion.
l am personally opposed to an increase In
prices, and II l am compelled to pay more
than the present rates, and continue to re-
tail at IS cents l will be forced to close
my place of business.
An increase of cents a quart, while
meaning nothing to the man with money,
will work great hardship on the poor. and
necessity for it.
THE fact of the matter is that the whole
saler is becoming alarmed by the stringent
regulations surrounding the conduct OF
dairy farms. The proposed tuberculin test
of cattle is to be reckoned with. The au-
thorities. upon the recommendation of the
milk commission, propose to apply the tu-
bercuin test to every herd supplying the
District, and in the event that any Of the
cows show evidence of disease they are to
be slaughtered.
''As yet. however, It has not been deter
mined what recompense, if any, is to be
made to the owner. This aud similar resu-
lations may have influenced the whole
salers in declaring advance IN prices,
but l hope that 1t may be averted and l
will use my best endeavors toward that
erd."

Guaranteed Stomach Remedy,

You may ask why Mitchell & Eg-
bers are able to guarantee to refund
the money unless Mi-o-na Stomach
Tablets cure when no other remedy
for stomach troubles Is sold in this
manner.
If the stomach is only given rest
by using a digestive. the muscles soon
become weak. and 1t Is necessary to
continue taking a digestive tablet aft
er every meal. On the other hand.
Mi-o-na used before eating strength
ems the stomach so that you will soon
be well enough 10 give up the use Of
medicine.
Mi-o-na costs but soc box. and
makes positive and complete cures.
The best proof of its merits Is the
guarantee to refund the money II II
does not cure. that Mitchell 4 Egbers

WILL INVOKE THE LAW
TO KEEP RIVER CLEAN

Representatives of the various COM
nercia! organizations of Salia, Flor
ence and Pueblo met at the rooms of
the Canon City Merchants Associa-
ton Thursday night for the purpose of
formulating some plan for preventing
the pollution Of the waters of the Ar
kansas river from placer mining and
other agencies by which vast Quanti-
ties OF vegetable and mineral impuri-
ties are annually washed into its chan
mel.
II was the sense of the meeting that
the time for action had arrived and
that it would be far easier to accom-
plish its purposes now than it would
be five years hence and to that end
it Was decided to invoke the aid of
the law in carrying out its ambition.
The statutes are clear upon the ques-
ton in point and it is the undoubted
Cañon City record., 1907-05-02

right and province of the people to
proceed against individuals or COM
panies which lend themselves to, or
encourage, the pollution of the waters
of any stream within the limits of the
state the same as against any other
public nuisance.
In addition to the meeting held
Thursday night, two sessions were
held today: one OF them this morning
and the other at o'clock this after
noon. Legal measures will probably
be instituted through District Attorney
Augustus Pease of this city to have
the hydraulic mining at Granite, Colo
RADIO, fourteen miles this side of Lead
Vile, prohibited as inimical to the
public interests. or the numerous
meetings held during the last few
years to bring about the Qualification
of the Arkansas river. none were
more enthusiastic and determined than
the one held here today, and tangible
results are expected to grow out of it.

PLATFORM OF DELEGATES
TO CLEAR RIVER CONVENTION

The following preamble and resOlu-
the delegates to the clear river con-
vention, held here on Friday, as a
declaration of principles and the em-
bOdiment of it's intentions. The report
was presented by the committee on
resolutions and, on motion, adopted as
the platform of the convention, without
change.
Your committee respectfully report:
Whereas, The Arkansas river having
its source along seventy-five miles OF
the Continental Divide. among the
snow banks and springs of the great
est number of high peaks, in like area
on the continent, and protected by
forest reserves, is, under natural con-
ditions, one of the finest streams in
our conutry, and,
Whereas, IT has been rendered un-
slightly, and even the gamey and food
fish that lived in its waters driven out
from Granite down its course through
the state since the Cache Creek placer,
some ten years ago, commenced wash
ing into it a cement-like yellow clay,
and,
Whereas, For the early years OF
such operations It being reported was
highly remunerative to its owners, the
citizens of this valley patiently sub
mitted to the pollution, and,
| Whereas, Said placer having ceased
to be operated directly by its foreign
owners. because of light revenue there
from, and is operated only by less
than score of lesses, and,
Whereas. About seventy-five thous-
. and people of the valley below 1t are
seriously injured and discommoded
