TRACTION AUTOS TO BE
USED In WORK ON CANAL

II RACTlON automobiles are the
i latest thing for the Panama canal,
and their use, according to officials
of the canal in Washington, presages
the doom of the ancient and time
honored railroad velocipede, now used
by track walkers and employees in
charge of switch lights in sparsely
populated communities. 1t is not be-
yond the realm of probability, in the
opinion of some of them, that the run.
ming of automobiles on railroad tracks
will become fad If the railroads will
stand for it.
The purchasing agent of the com.
mission has advertised for two such
machines for use on the railroad

CINE must be stout enough to climb

crease their speed to 20 per cent
above normal. or, in other words, TO
make so miles an hour. The car must
burn ordinary stove gasoline and have
a capacity TO go 1876 miles at full
speed and load. 1t is the purpose OF
the commission to place these cars
in the inspection department for the
use of the chief engineer and his as.

passing passenger freight. dirt or
special trains in inspecting the work
along the canal.

the existing policy is unmolested the
vast areas of forest and mountain now
embraced in reserves will for all time
be administered in the interest of the
entire people.
There are now more than 56,000,-
300 acres of land in the national for
ests Grazing Is permitted, but under
strict regulations, made in order that
the grass may not be destroyed by

without such conservation the range

A glance at the regulations govern
Ing grazing on the government forests
will give the reader very good idea
of the government forest policy and
how II is being administered. Stock
men who desire to make use of the
Z range apply for permits stating the
kind of stock they have. the quantity
of 1t and the location of the range they
want. The forest officers then proceed
to make allotments, apportioning the
available pasture among the appli
cants on as equitable basis as prac
ticable
Sometimes stockmen who live nea,
forests or have stock near them allow
that stock to drift across lines. II this

subject to fine and may also be sued
for damages The number OF tres
pass cases last year was 1873. OF which
1913 were settled out of court The
sum collected for these trespasses ag
gregated $3.50. These trespass cases
have been another source of friction
between the government and the
grazers. 1t is difficult for the west
to realize that, the country now being
thickly populated, 1t is no longer pos
sible to maintain the old time free
range without destroying that range
The entire system of permits and fees

Old Man Badly Hurt.

Benjamin Cuthbert, an old man
who has been at the Weld County
hospital for some time, was badly
hurt, he says, by being beaten and
kicked at Evans Friday night and
may die IRON his injuries One hip

does not die he will never be able to
walk again.
The old man was In Evans. and
not wanting to return to Greeley
that evening, tried to secure room
at the hotels OF the place, but these
we're both filled. He then started
out to hnc room In some private
house, and stopped at the home of
Mrs, Mary Jane Perkins. When he
raped at the door he claims that a
man came out, took his cane and
beat him with 1t, and afterward
kicked him. Peter Hughes, son.in-
law OF Mrs. Perkins, has been accused
OF injuring Cuthbert, but he states
that the old man was injured by
falling of the porch, and that he
went TO his assistance.

HEALTH OF CITY GOOD
No Truth in Story of Typhoid
Fever

There has been so much talk of
typhoid fever the last few weeks that
some people are becoming needlessly
alarmed OF course there is some
typhoid. No city of 5000 people can
hope to get through season with
out it, but the board of health has
watched conditions closely, and
from the recent report submitted to
them by City Physician DR.. Ella
Mead they find that the health of the
city was never before so good.
In spite OF the fact that we have a
thousand more people here than last
year there has been fewer cases OF
typhoid this wear. In all, there
have been forty-five cases, and the
first case was the last of June, while
last year it began as early as March.
or the forty.6ve cases, thirteen con.
tracted the disease outside the city
and were brought here sick or be.
came Ill shorL time after arriving.
OF the thirty-two remaining, 6fteer
had been using water from surface
wells and twenty-five had been liv
ing at places with no sewerage.
What Greeley really needs is that
the water mains and sewers be ex
tended to the outskirts Of town anc
residents forced to connect. We
would then have city that fol
health would compare favorably witt
any place on the globe.

there would be less disobedience, and
greater safety. Possibly the recording
