The Republicans OF the City of
Webster, in convention assembled
having honored me with the nomi-
nation for mayor,I deem it a duty to
briefly state to the citizens my posi-
ton in the matter.
First, the honor was not brought
about by any solicitation on my
part.
Second, there has not been a sin
gle pledge made by, or required of,
me as regards appointments or future
policy.
The platform upon which l 60
before the people as a candidate for
mayor is as follows: Enforcement
of the laws and ordinances of the
city; an honest and economical man.
agement of city affairs. If honored
by election, these principles will be
carried out. In addition, every
effort will be put forth to promote
the growth, prosperity and happiness
of our city, Politics will not be
allowed to interfere with matters in
which the city, and it's citizens as a
whole, are interested.
Subordinate officers will be held
to a strict accountability in the dis
charge of their respective duties.
With these declarations, | accept
the nomination at the hands of the

The Wadsworth Ranch.

The first week IN January, 1907,
d. MlhlIls and c. d. Wadsworth,
partners IN the WadswOrth Ranch
company, after having been in
Colorado for short time and hav-
ing made an investment in San
LUIS valley lands, moved to their
property. 1t lies sixteen miles
northeast of Del Norte, twenty
miles from Monte Vista and SIX
teen miles from the nearest rail-
road shipping point. There were
l 40 acres IN the tract purchased.
Today there Is two-story brick
house on the ranch equipped with
all modern improvements, a bath
room, running hot and cold water;
there are seven artcslan wells
spouting never-ending flow of
water; there is barn, thirty-slx
by 100 feet; there is Il granary and
shop house, with n capacity of
10000 bushels; there Is Il hog pen
100 by forty feet; there is bunk
and cook house: there are twelve
miles of good hog-tight fencing on
the ranch; there Is a big steam
pillow and threshlng machine;
there Is big lot of us fine hogs
700 of them-as can be found in
the valley, and there are ITO head
of cattle, also sheep and lambs.
Best of all there are big crops
which were harvested and cut this
year from land which short ten
months ago was sagebrush-noth.
ing else.
One quarter section of land paid
for itself this year in the crops
that were raised on 1t. We had
on this particular section 800 acres
in wheat. 100 acres in barley, IS
acres in alfalfa, 80 acres in hog
pasture and the balance in oats.
The alfalfa field on July | was
brush land, yet we cut good crop
from il before the season had
closed.
.sTb;u IonJ ,,ot no xlS ,,ar o,r.
We could sell it at the snap of our
fingers today for $50 per acre.
But why should we sell? We
figure that we are making an in
vestment on 800 land. 1t looks
like n pretty good proposition to
hang to, doesn't it?-J. b. Young

Dangerous Tricks

Wednesday, while at work in
cleaning some bottles used in
chemical experiments at the high
school, Earl Allen in a spirit of
fun, persuaded the eight-year-old
son of j. G. Haggard to smell of a
bottle containing chlorine gas.
The child, having been told that
the bottle held perfumery, took a
generous inhalation of the poison
GUS gas and at once became un-
conscious and two doctors were
summoned and barely saved the
child's life. The effect of chlorine
gas when inhaled il to break down
the membranes or tissues of the
lungs and there il danger that
pneumonia may cot in.
Poisons and explosives are dan
gerous things with which to play
tricks.

Meats Vista Market.

Prices have fallen the past week
in sympathy" with eastern prices
Wheat, ei.l5; good oats, 81 Is;
barley, l.06; potatoes, 10 cents.
There il but little grain coming
into market and but very few po.
tatoes.
The lack Of ready money is felt
in all tho larger eastern markets
and in consequence gram and live
stock are not being shipped to any
great extent.
Lambs and hogs are way down.

AN IMMENSE LOT OF
HONEY THIS YEAR

Five carloads Of the finest honey
in the land, each containing 10000
pounds, netting the raiser eleven
cents a pound, will be produced in
the Arkansas valley this summer.
This is the estimate made by per-
sons who know what they are talk
ing about, on account of keeping
in close touch with the agricultural
and bee raising industries of this
community.
Besides the regular or usual
trade in bee hives and sections, a
seed company Of Pueblo has made
three special orders, and large ones
of these supplies and sold them all
before they reached the city. This
has been the experience of dealers
in bee supplies at Canon, Florence,
Rocky Ford, La Junta, Lamar and
other cities and towns of the val
ley. This condition shows that
the bees on hand have increased
wonderfully fast and that many
more have been brought into the
region, otherwise the large purch-
ases Of hives and sections made
last vear would have been suffic.
lent.
A pleasing and unusual feature
of the honey business in this val
ley this season lies in the fact that
the majority of the farmers are al
lowing their first crop of alfalfa to
go to seed, for the reason that this
seed had become very valuable, and
in order to get the seed the crop
must first be allowed to bloom, and
there is next to nothing finer for
honey than alfalfa bloom. 1t is a
fact well known everywhere that
white clover honey has always
brought the top notch figure all
over the country, but it also dem.
onstrated that the next thing to il
is that made from alfalfa. In fact
alfalfa honey sells equally as well
as white clover through the middle
and some Of the eastern states.
So expert have some of the local
raisers of honey become that they
can tell by the look and taste 'whe.
ther Colorado honey was extracted
from the bloom Of the wild grape,
the wild mignonette, California
bee plant or alfalfa. A good and
healthy stand Of bees under the
conditions obtaining this summer,
is expected to produce from fifty
to seventy.five pounds Of honey,
and the first reported taken was on
the first day Of the present month,
which, by the way, is phenominally
early.
