AN INTERESTING ASSEMBLY
The Trans-NIissouri Dry Farming
Congress to be Held in Denver
the Last Part of This
Month.

Governor Jesse NJ. Mcdonald. be-
fore his retirement from Office on
Tuesday. issued an official call to the
governors, agricultural colleges, state
land boards. state engineers, state
boards of agricultural, national and
state agricultural association, county
commissioners, mayors of cities. rail
roads, and all commercial bodies in
the Trans Missouri states, for the
meeting of the Trans-Mississipp Dry
yer. January 2425.
This will be the first general con-
vention of those vitally interested in
the question of the semi-arid regions
of the United States by systems or
scientific farming.
Delegates are to be appointed by
each of the officials and organizations
mentioned above.
In announcing the objects of the
congress Gov. Mcdonald says: The
rapid development of practical farm
ing and profitable crop production
under improved agricultural methods,
and the unmistakable proof of the
possibility of reclaiming a great por-
tion of the semi-arid acreage in the
Western States. have led to increased
activity in both official and private
experimental work. believe that
the time for united action and official
ancou,so uap,ant hoe haar, roo chad opd
that there should be inaugurated
practical and active general move
ment, under proper organization.
through which the g. eat natural re-
sources of the non-irrigated districts
and the possibilities of extending the
agricultural areas of our Western
States may be brought to the atten-
tion of the world at large. To popu-
late our vast acreage where irriga-
tion is not possible will insure the
commerce and stimulate the demand
for the products of our factories to
such an extent that every commercial
industry in the Trans Missouri States
will be favorably affected.
The Colorado lines have made a
special rate of one fare from all
points in the state with four selling
days, January 90. 81. %. and 90.
The final return on these tickets will
be January 2S. From outside the

LOCAL NEWS

A strictly first class resort. the St
Regis bar.
A dispatch from Guthrie. Okla
homa. states that the committee on
railroads and public services reported
yesterday to the constitutional con
vention recommending 2-cent rail-
way fare and the enactment of a fel-
low servant law.
What is described as the largest
pipe in the world is valued at $40, 900
and is counted as one of the most re
markable pieces of carving in exist
ence. The pipe is made of one solid
piece of meerschaum. and represents
the landing of Columbus. There are
twenty-four figures in the scene, each
one four inches high. The carver
who executed this masterpiece is
dead, and, as the demand for this sort
of work has nearly died out. It is
practically impossible to find a man
to duplicate it.
The Durango board of trade has
called the attention of the Colorado
senators and representatives to the
fact that an existing law prevents
Indian children on the reservations
in Arizona, New Mexico and Utah
from crossing into Colorado and at
tending the Fort Lewis Indian school
near Durango. It is requested that
congress do away with this law in
order that the attendance at the Fort
Lewis school may be increased
through the admission of Indian chill
dren from the surrounding reserva-
tion in other states and territories.
In the list of decisions handed
down by the state supreme court on
Tuesday is noticed one in the case of
the Pacific Mutual Life Insurance Co.
of California, appellant. VS. Mrs. Lulu
Il. Van Fleet, appellee. of Denver.
The motion to advance the case was
denied by the court. 1t will be re-
membered that Mrs. Van Fleet is the
widow of the ballonist that was killed
while making an ascension from the
fair grounds in this city at the county
fair two years ago. The insurance
company. it seems. is making n hard
fight to keep from paying her a policy
on the life of the deceased.
Many requests are coming in to the
governor, asking that McGarvey. the
fiend who killed Jailor Innes at Grand
Junction during fair week, be repriev-
ed and given life sentence. No more
brutal murder was ever committed in
western Colorado. McGarvey muir
dered his friend, his jailor. while con-
fined awaiting trial on charge of as
sault on nine year old girl. Several
prisoners saw the murder, but were
locked up. McGarvey was a "trusty."

muntation of the death sentence of
Judge Stevens will be but another
evidence that the American people are
satisfied when three per cent of the
murders of this country are avenged,
yet in Germany 80 per cent of the
are caught and executed. Is
