WOULDN'T IT BE NlcEr

Wouldn't it Just be kind of nice II
the new city water works and the
new Camfield hotel could be COM
pleted at the same time and Greeley
could then have celebration that
would be heard clear to Washington
and back again? OF course there
would be occasion for another cele-
bration when the new city hall and
the new library building are COM
pleted, but that is in the future.
Just now the other two enterprises
arc running about neck and neck and
from present indications will be
finished at about the same time.
No doubt Mr.. Camfeld has in mind
some sort of grand opening and would
DO It right all by himself, but the
people generally should be given 4
chance to show their appreciation,
not alone for what will be one of
the finest water systems in the
country but also one of the best
hotels, two things that Greeley has
needed for many years.

Sixty out of the ninety days of the
session Of the legislature have passed
and that costly ornament to the
great state of Colorado has done ab.
solutely nothing for the good of the
state or for anybody, except for the
members to draw their salary and do
the will of their masters. the cor
porations, which consists altogether
IN letting things 60 as they are.
Things have been just about right
for the interests in this state for
q few years and they are likely to
remain so just as long as the people
continue sending corporation tools to
the senate and Legislature. The
Weld county delegation has done
pretty good work but its members
are but few compared with the big
body Of corporation. controlled sena-
tors and representatives.

WILL you HELP7

The Greeley Commercial club has
two enterprises ON hand for the bene-
fit not only of Greeley people but for
everybody in the Greeley district, l..
g., the Chautauqua and band concerts
in the park during the summer.
Committees are now at work upon
both of these things. All the com.
mittees can do, however, is to work
out the details to obtain the best re-
suits. The real success of either
will depend upon the cooperation of
the people generally. 1t will take
considerable financial aid to carry
out the plans and that is where the
public will have to come in.
The lyceum bureau that will fur
nish the talent for the Chautauqua
asks that 500 tickets at s2. so each be
sold up to July l and then these
people will do the rest. They will
prepare the grounds, furnish the
tents necessary, connect up the
water and in fact take complete
charge, all the Greeley people have
to do is to buy the 500 season tickets
which will entitle each holder to ton
days and evenings Of entertainment
and instruction by some Of the best
Chautauqua talent in the country
With the band concerts the prop.
osition is little different. 1t is
two year since Greeley had open air
concerts, practically because there
was no financial support for the loca,
band. This time the committee ,s
going to strike the people hard fo,
money for tie conerts. Enouob
money will be asked to pay the band
$500 for series Of ten or twelve con-
certs, besides an equal amount with
which to buy some new instrumen,s
that are badly needed, hire a gooo
leader and to buy new music. Tb,.
amount would mean only 81 yesL
for each bandman, for two rehearsal
and the one concert. Unless souo
such amount can be secured 1t is mt
likely that there will be copcerts ..

READY APRIL 18th
PIG Power Plant Will Be Run
ming Juice

Power for the use OF the Colorado
g. Southern electric interurban line
between Denver and Boulder will be
ready by April Is. The plant OF the
Northern Colorado Power company,
building at Lafayette, will be COM
pleted by that date. The Colorado
4 Southern railway is financially in
terested in the power company.
The Denver Gas & Electric COM
pany will utilize a part OF the
twenty-three acres recently purchased
on the West Side as a site for an
electric plant, which will supply
power to the Colorado & Southern
and other companies planning to
build interurban electric lines.
The Northern Colorado Power
company will supply light and power
to all the towns in the northern
part OF Colorado and its power Lines
will extend as far north as Cheyenne,
Wyo. Among the towns which will
be supplied are Lafayette, Louisville,
Boulder, Longmont, Loveland, Fort
Collins, Greeley and Cheyenne.
The company owns a coal mine at
Lafayette. This will enable 1t to
generate power at a comparatively
small cost. but it will not be gener-
ated as cheaply as water power.
The independent electric plants
which we're situated in the different
towns in the northern part of Colo
RADIO have been absorbed by the
| Northern Colorado Power company.
These will be dismantled as soon as
the central plant at Lafayette is
completed. Denver Post.

moving the timber we're unknown.
We need the timber in the west, not
alone for its own value, but for its
even greater value of controlling the
water supply. For every acre refor-
ested in the mountains it will even
tually mean an acre of irrigated land
on the plains and for farming or
stock feeding purposes we venture to
say will be worth ten acres of graz.
ing lands within any forest reserve.
This, to our mind, is the idea that
the president has in view with his
forest policy and this idea carried
out will never work hardship upon
those who are actually desiroUs OF
making beneficial use of the resources
of the country. - 4
There appears to be no intention
of interfering with the present water
supply but the government will only
charge water users for the additional
amount of water that may be deyel-
oped or conserved by means of refor-
estratien of the reserves.
The Greeley tribune., 1907-03-07
NO NEED OF WORRY,

A great uproar is being made in
some quarters over the presidents
policy in regard to forest reserves in
the western states" In nutshell it
is this:
Congress is asked to appropriate a
million or more for permanent i'm
provements, which it is the inten-
tion of the service to rent to the
people. Mr. Pinchot estimates the
capitalized value of the forest reser-
yes at 81, 500, 900, 900, and of this
amount $3.50, 900, 600 is given as the
value Of the water. The estimates
contemplate getting 10 cents per acre
foot for water for irrigation and 90
per horse power for water for power
purposes. Grazing is estimated at
the rate of ~ cents per acre.
Under these figures Mr.. Pinchot esti-
mates that the reserves will become
self-supporting In 1911, and in 1917
they will be producing a revenue Of
more than s6, 600, 600 per year from
timber and grazing alone. He
figures that it will cost a, 800. 600 a
year to administer the reserves,
which will mean an army of 500 en-
ployes or more.
There is probably some merit in
the protests against this plan but we
do not believe that it would work
any hardship on the people. The
practice heretofore has been largely
for the wise ones to grab as much of
the raw material of the west as pos
sible without regard for the future.
We have seen how the forests of
Colorado have been reduced from the
size of an empire, by fire and timber
thieves, to but fraction of its old
self and other states of the noun
tain regions have Jared no better.
Any plan that will stop this whole
sale destruction and again turn the
tide toward construction seems
justifiable, even II the people who
enjoy the benefits from this policy
have to stand part of tho exnense.
We see only too plainly the result in
the east Of removing all of the tim
Der from the watersheds Of the big
rivers. Millions Of dollars worth of
property Is now annually destroyed
by floods that up to the time of re-
