No HOPE for Jsha Drop.

Joseph HoRrcfc went to Denver last
Friday to look after John Drop who
was 10 terribly injured in a coal mine
accident several weeks ago. The com.
missioncrs sent Drop to st. Joseph S
hospital in Denver where he has had
the benefit of cxpcft medical and surgi-
cal attendance. but the doctors hold
out no hope for the mans recovery.
He cannot live more than few months
in any event. Drop has no relatives
and is without means. The Commits
sioncrs can have him cared for at St.
Joscph's for $l.0o per day and as that
is a less cost than he can be cared for
here it is more than likely that he will
be left in Denver. altho Mr.. Hogrcfc
was unable to say positively until he
consulted the other commissioners.

No Water Users Assn.

The contemplated organization of a
Surface Creek Water Users Assn. came
to a sudden check at Eckert last Satur-
day. The meeting called for that date
was adjourned without action and what
the future will be no one can tell. The
INDEPENDENT has been informed that
majority were in favor. but there
would not have been the unanimity de-
sired to make the Association success
and those who have been pushing the
project thought best to let the matter
rest, temporarily at least and possibly
for all time.
This paper has nothing at stake and
what il has had to say in favoring the
proposition WAS purely from the stand
point of what VIC believe To be the
grcatest Huod Of the largest number.
We believe those who oppose are stand
ing in their own light and against their
own best int tercsts. Anything that will
add to the efficiency of service, lessen
expense and ecopomizc the product is
Of public benefit and Importance. Such
would upqucstionAbly he the result of
organization and amalgamation of the
water interests of Surface Creek. II
those who own the water do not see it
that way now. that is their business,
but We believe organization will ulti-
matcly succeed.

UP TO THE PEOPLE.
The Question As to Whether OF Not
We Are to Have Sugar fadofy
Is Likely to Soon Be Submitted to
Our CtizenS.

The people of Delta and vicinity will
soon have an opportunity to show their
metal on the sugar beet factory propo-
sition. The committee has been at
work and promoters who seem to know
for successful achievement have agreed
to take hold and get factory. for
Delta provided the town will do its
part. The plan is largely the same as
that followed by other communities in
this state where successful factories
are now in operation.
The INDEPENDENT is hopeful of the
outcome. We have a good class of
people here and We believe they will be
willing to risk something for their own
and the towns good A man could not
be blamed for holding back from any
proposition which did not promise good
returns on the investment, but the
manufacture of sugar has proven to bc
profitable. in fact there is big money
in il beyond question and any financial
assistance this community lends to
such an enterprise will be safe and
alluringly profitable.
The construction of factory in Delta
would give the town and country an i'm
pctus that would carry il swiftly along
the pathway of progress and develop
mcnt for q number of years. Popula-
ton would double in short time and
values would be augmented a great
deal.
When the supreme test comes We
believe our people will be found cnthus-
isstic and ready to help. .-s-z-ss.,

Not Correct On Service.

The Montrose Cooperative Telephone

Ouray is much interested in the project.
Ouray has better sense than to get
tangled up in a hayseed CO operative
scheme of any kind. for there was
never one yet that did not turn out a
supreme fizzle. and that is just exactly
what this one will do. The service
given by the Colorado Telephone COM

no higher than the CO op. would have

A proposition to increase the sal

PATHETIC RESIGNATION
After Twenty Years of Service an
Aged Baptist Minister at Trlni-
dad Resigns Believing That
Congregation Was
Tired of Him.

There comes from Trinidad a pa
thetic story regarding the resignation
of an old minister who having served
his church faithfully for many years
steps aside for a younger man, be-
lieving that his congregation desires
the change.
A dispatch from Trinidad to the
Pueblo Chieftain under Sundays date
line has the following to say:
Rev. B. L. Lawler, for twenty years
a minister of the First Baptist church
"a tenure of ministry in one parish
longer than that ever served by any
other Baptist minister in Colorado
astounded his congregation by an
nouncing from the pulpit that after
Sept. 1, 1907, he would no longer act
as their pastor.
Mr.. Lawler is nearly so years of
age. He assigns no reason for his
resignation other than that several
of the church trustees, and not the
congregation as a whole, had inti-
mated to him during the past week
Andl iNllOh On Aii1 phA 1 Npuib
be acceptable. When interviewed by
The Chieftain correspondent tonight,
Mr.. Lawler seemed greatly distressed
and could not understand why any
member of his church should desire
him to leave. There will be meet
ing of the congregation Wednesday
night to pass on the action of the
trustees and the voluntary sresisna-
tion of Mr.. Lawyer.
Since coming to Trinidad, Mr.. Law
Ter has built the present handsome
stone edifice of the Baptist church
and also the parsonage adjoining,
which latter he owns himself.
The only comment that Mr.. Lawler
would make was that he thought that
God would give him another charge
in the fall. He has proposed to the
trustees that they buy his home that
he may have something to live on in
his declining years.

Years in the Ministery" and a number
