under no especial obligation on
account of this solicitude, feeling
that we guard and further your
interests for selfish reasons, yet
there are business men in other
towns who are equally dependent,
but who are apparently indiffer-
ent for the welfare of those who
inhabit the landsswhich surround
them. While we are recognizing
deserved merit we ask you not
to forget the good work that is
being done by the Delta Business
Mems Assn.
The Delta independent., 1907-01-18
Credit To Whom Due.

In connection with everything
of consequence there are those
who have made personal sacrifice,
who have assumed unequal re-
sponsibility and duty, but for
which the thing done would not
have been done at all or at least
would not have been done so well.
We feel that nothing so en-
courages the spirit of doing things
or of individual solicitude for the
public good, as to give proper
credit and public recognition to a
work we'll done. In other words,
if man or men have been public
benefactors let the public ac-
knowledge and manifest just rec
ognition of the service accom-
plished by the individual or indi-
viduals.
DR.. Aylesworth prefaced his
Monday evening lecture with a
brief review of the inception of
the Horticultural Short Course
carried to such a successful cul-
mination in Delta this week. He
told of a man who had traversed
our orchards for several years,
who had taken personal interest
in the welfare of the fruit grower
Of this part Of the state and who
had practically demanded from
the Agricultural Board a school
for this part of the state such as
has been held here and which we
feel sure will prove of benefit far
beyond our present realization.
DR.. Aylesworth paid a glowing
tribute to the untiring devotion
The Delta independent., 1907-01-18
Our View Endorsed.

G. H. Merchant, who attended
the Short Course several days
and who has been a wheel horse
in the development of the MOI tn
Fork for many years with head
quart ers at Paonia, was kind
enough to say some very nice
things about this paper under its
present management. The edit
orial, published last week. who
Is To Blame" struck Mr.. Mer-
chant with especial favor. 1t is
encouraging to know that such
men endorse the position that as
a party republicans hereafter pay
their own bills that independence
Of action in state convention and
in legislatures by our chosen rep
resentatives may be entirely con-
sistent and that we may by ex-
ample encourage other counties
to do the same thing and thus
eventually throw off the yoke of
corporal ion and rich man demin-
alton. The INDEPENDENT is glad
to know that it has some backing
in the position that we need to
reform ourselves.

and unSelhSh interest mamIeSCeu
by Prof. Paddock in the Western
Slope fruit grower and gave him
credit, not only for this course,
but for the splendid work he is
doing at the Agricultural College.
We are glad DR.. Aylesworth made
known to whom we owe thanks
and gratitude for the service
rendered, not alone by Prof. Pad
dock, but all instructors and lect-
urers who have been with us this
week. The INDEPENDENT feels
sure it voices the unanimous SEN
timent of those who have attend
ed the course, of the business
men of Delta and of the Hortitul-
tural and Agricultural interests
of Delta county and the Western
Slope, in this word of recognition
and tribute to Prof. Paddock, his
assistants and all from the COL
lege, including Miss Ammons, for
the great service rendered.
This paper would not be just,
however, if it stopped here.
While those from the College had
a work to do and have done it
we'll, they could not have sue
ceeded at all but for the untiring
efforts of local men. The West
ern Slope owes the Horticultural
Short Course to Prof. Paddock,
but Delta is indebted for its part
of the honor to w. P. Dale. He
was responsible for bringing the
school to our town, but after Sc
curing its location here he did not
lay down. Realizing that sue
cess MUST be achieved for the
honor of the town and county he
took hold of the work with a vim,
cheerfully gave of his own time
every minute and every hour he
could spare and now has the sat
isfaction of seeing his efforts
crowned with success. AS every
captain must have a lieutenant
so Mr.. Dale needed willing and
competent helpers and in T. X.
Seaton, the-old-reliable, never
tagging, always-at-roll-call Delta
booster he found an assistant who
never failed to get under the load
when the burden came heaviest.
To these men Delta owes a debt
of gratitude. They have hued to
the line and have accomplished a
success that will rebound to the
credit and benefit of our town and
county for years to come.
We will not bring this article to,
a close without calling the atten-
ton of those who have attended
the course this week and every
farmer and fruit grower in the
county as well, to the constant
'solicitude of the business men of
Delta for the best interests of the
farmer, fruit grower and cattle
men. Thru their organization,
The Delta Business Mems Assn,
constant watch is being kept on
every move that will be of bene-
fit to town and county. Delta
business men are broad enough
to recognize that you are their
constituents and your welfare is
their welfare. While you may be

Buchtel No Crank.

Many were afraid that Chan
cellor Buchtel would prove to be
a era n KIP re eacher governor.
Those who knew him were posi-
tive that such would not be the
case and so far their confidence
in the man has been sustained.
He took positive stand regard
ing the hanging of McGarvey, the
Grand Junction murderer and re-
fused to grant a reprieve, an
nouncing that nothing sentiment
al need be expected from him
from the friends of condemned
murderers, where such persons
had been granted a fair trial.
The Denver News. is starting a
crusade, not for morals but for
political reasons, calling on the
governor to stop gambling and
otherwise meddle in the munich
pal affairs of Denver. He has
told the News that he has moth
ing to do with the government
of Denver and expresses the SEN
sible opinion that he will have
enough to do to properly look
after the affairs of state.
In his inaugural address, refer
ring to the local option law prom
ised by the republican platform
and which he urged the legisla-
ture to enact he said:
II beg to remind you that this
is not what is called sumptuarv
legislation. tits not saying what
a man shall eat and drink. 1t is
not proposing to make people
good by law. A moderate or an
immoderate drinker can go on all
his life as he likes under an option
law. A local option law is just
an application of the principle
of the square deal to the question
of the open saloon. If a MAORI
ty of the people in any commune
ty want the open saloon, they
have the right to have it. If a
majority of the people in any
community do.not want the open
saloon, they have a right to
exclude it. This is a fundament-
al principle in our American po-
litical life".
To our mind there is contained
in the above the essence of the
liquor question, the only practi-
cal and sensible method of pro-
ceedure. In a community where
a majority are against the saloon
there should be no saloon.
Where the majority favors it
there is no use trying to enforce
prohibition.
Gov. Buchtel is no crank. He
is making a good start.

They Have Good Boosters.

A Delta citizen took . run out to the
Green River country the first of this
week in order to get some knowledge
of q section that is being almost noisily
doomed and is constantly coming in
competition with Delta county. This
new country is located 105 miles west
of Grand Junction, in the state of Utah.
According to our informant. who went
under the guise Of land seeker. raw
land is selling for from $l25 to $50 per
acre. 1t is to be watered by means of
pumping plant. the water to cost
$500 per acre additional and main
.tainsnce tax Of $3.50 per acre per an
mum. The soil is sandy and that which
is not sandy is adobe. Some of it is
combination of sand and adobe. This
party says he saw two burrows turned
that exposed nothing but pure sand.
there being no soil of any character in
1t. He was taken to few small Or
chards. but they were by no means i'm
pressive. There are from Is to 18
Thousand acres in what it is supposed
will eventually be covered by the pump
ing plants.
Our informant, however, acknowl-
edges that they have one thing to be
proud of, the best and most unanimous
bunch of boosters he ever saw back of
any country and the man telling this
has been around some. They are COM
prised largely of old time Palisade men
and he says from the time you step of
the train until you leave town II is i'm
possible TO get out Of reach of boost
er. This party says II he had gone
there from the east without knowledge
of irrigation, climate or soil for fruit
production that he feels sure the whole-
sale plsudits Of the Green Rivcrites
would have brought him into the fold.
There ID = lesson for us In this expert
ence and 1t Is that we should ALL
boost. We can sing the praises Of our
own country and never vary the width
Of hair from the truth.

The Bank of Preston gave a Times

The Bank Of Preston gave Times
reporter some astounding figures.
This institution handles the funds
for our poultry merchants, Messrs l.
N. Smith & Son and and A. Weigand,
probably the most extensive dealers
in their line in Southern Minnesota.
For nineteen days from Dec.e1 to "a

poultry $40, O64. 4S or a daily average
of $529. II. During the same time
$S,840.57 or an average of S465. 20
were paid out for stock, total daily
average of nearly a thousand dollars
1t is estimated that more money is
paid out at this point for eggs alone
during the year than for grains of
all kinds, a most remarkable show
ing. It is. this diversified farming
that. is making the, farmers rich,

The new editor Of the Crookston
Times recently came from Iowa and
on that. account is excusable for his
lack OF knowledge, of the geography
of the Red River Valley in Mime
sofa, as was displayed in an editorial
in Wednesday mornings Times
under the heading, !''Our Committee
Drawings. The Times deplores the
fact that Senator Stephens was not
made chairman of the senate drain
age committee, "a position'', to use
the words OF the Times,. "that. this
year is of even greater Importance,
and which would undoubtedly result
in larger benefit to this part of the
state if the present chairman were "a
northern Minnesota man. Now we
wish to inform the Times that Sena-
tor B., E. Sundbreg, of Kennedy,
Mimi, who represents the district
comprising Marshall Kittson : and
Roseau Counties, is the chairman of
the committee on drainage, ;and his
home is 81 miles farther north than

northern Minnesota man than SEN
ator Stevens. The Times should
know also that the Red River Valley
in Minnesota does not end at Crooks
ton,' but. extends northward from
that city nearly hundred miles to
the international boundary and
that many thriving cities and towns
are located in this vast territory to
the northward among them : being
Warren, Argyle, Stephen, Kennedy,
Hallock, St. Vincent, Roseau, Green
bush, Warroad, Karlstad, NewfoIden,
Middle River, Thief River Falls, and
scores of Others. In the future, let
us hope that the Times will recog-
nize The fact that there is great
country to the north of Crookston

We often see it in print and it is
believed by many that it is hard
ship and great disadvantage to live
in cold climate, where snow falls
and remains on the ground for sew
eral months and where live stock has
to. be housed and fed half the year or
more. Poets and philosophers have
sung the praises and extolled the
blessings of life in southern climes,
where nature provides bountifully
for mans existence with the mini
um expenditure of labor. Yet, after
all, we believe they are mistaken
when they picture existence under
balmy sunny skies as the ideal one.
History proves that the northern
races are the ones who have taken
the lead in.all human advancement.
A cold climate to be sure compels a
struggle for existence, but it is this
very struggle that de7elops man,
both, body and mind, and makes
AlA1u CIlC IIdSCC1 VI OAAO OAFA1OAIuCuO.
A warm climate on the other hand
is enervating and does not develop
the best in man. 1t was the strong,
vigorous hordes that swept down
from the north that conquered
Rome. 1t was the Snow King from
the north with his sturdy warriors
who defeated the powerful armies of
lilly and Wallenstein in the Thirty
Years War. From the frozen shores
Of Iceland have comes poets and
philosophers, not surpassed by those
of sunny Italy. 1t. is. an. accepted
truth that the farther north animal
or vegetable life develops and ma
lures, the better and stronger it is.
No, it is no disadvantage to be born
in a cold country, where the pure
white snow flakes. are tossed by the
north wind six months of the year,
and touching, your cheek makes it
glow with the picture of <health.IIl We
ought rather to be thankfuE that our
lot is cast in such, a portion of the
earth where the climate brings out
the best there is in US, and makes
us strong vigorous, and. healthy both
in body and mind, i l:>Jh.t r...,s.
