truthfully announce an electric
road for Surface Creek, we would
do it with headlines that would
reach entirely across the front
page of the paper. We did our
best to get Mr.. Zigler to say that
he would build an electric road.
We wanted to put those big head
lines in so badly and whoop the
thing up, but the best he would
do was to tell us about the wagon
road he is building. Possibly
Brewer did not go to Mr.. Zigler
at all. We don't know, nor do
we care. We hate to be called
knocker when we have tried so
hard to be a booster and to boost
not only for Delta but for all of
Delta county. 1t is barely posi-
BILE people will think Brewer has
lied about us. We hope so.

The electric lighting PROPOSE
ton is another thing which is
worrying them. The way Mr..
Beezley ran the plant it paid him
a little interest on his money.
He showed the town what he
was making when he asked for a
franchise but the people all got
wise and concluded that he
showed them wrong figures.
They took in the plant. Today
they are running we'll behind and
are facing the fact that they
must enlarge the plant to the ex-
tent of three thousand dollars.
The man with whom we were
talking stated that municipal
ownership as applied to the light
ing plant had proven itself a
costly failure. If they change to
city water power they must be
put to additional expense to Sc
cure a turbine. They had an
engineer look over the PROPOSE
ton and he stated that Mr.. Beez-
ley was charging altogether too
much. Results have proven that
an engineers estimates and act
ual returns are much at vari-
ance.'

''The Delta Independent dis
cusses the normal school PROPOSE
ton with beautiful disregard of
the fact that Gunnison already
has the coveted location. '-Pao-
MIA Newspaper.
That coveted location" propo-
sition is certainly joke. AS we
understand it Gunnison has been
in possession of the location
for a good many years. What
good a location minus the school
will do is difficult for the average
mind to comprehend. If it be-
came necessary we would favor
throwing the support of Delta to
Grand Junction rather than have
the future prospect of such a
school blighted by the weight of
an unfavorable location. But
there is no use tearing our hair
out about this normal school bus
mess. There isn't a ghost of a
show for two long years yet.

Delta is a saloonless town. We
want to advertise the fact. so if
there is any benefit to be derived
we will get it, and if, as is so
frequently stated, there are many
people who wish to locate in a
prohibition town, they will know
Delta is that kind and come a
running. 1t might be we'll to in
vite all the anti-saloon citizens Of
Montrose to come this way.

Editor Tom Blackwell of the
North. Fork Times made trip
to Paonia and after returning
home proceeded to write his i'm
pressions. He says some things
that may be of interest down this
way and we quote as follows:
"One prominent business man
told us that investment by her
moneyed men had stopped and
would not be resumed in the town
because of a natural fear that
something will be done to get the
town into worse financial shape
than it now is. There is strict
watch being kept over possible
bootlegging and with the spirit
which prevades the towns trus-
tees and the others who are in
control there will certainly be
some prosecutions. If they are
successful they will cost the town
large sums of money. If they
are brought on insufficient evil
dence the town will stand practi-
cally bankrupt. The income from
the utilities is not sufficient to run
the different departments and as
the tax levy will have to be raised
to about twenty-five mills to
bring things out even it can easily
be seen why the moneyed men
there are sitting back.

Hotchkiss People Have troubles Of
Their Own.
North Fork Times.

Justice was in great demand during
the early part of the week and was dis
pensed from the court of Judge Scherer
both Monday and Tuesday. At ten
O'Clock appeared Ed. Turner VS.. George
Fredericks in which it was charged by
Mr.. Turner that Mr.. Fredericks has
trcspassed on property controlled by
the former and damages were asked.
Attorney Unger appeared for the de.
fendant and Attorney Pike for the
plaintiff. 1t soon appeared to the JUS
tice that title to land was in dispute
and an order was issued certifying the
matter to the district court.
Immediately on the conclusion of the
foregoing the case of The People of the
State of Colorado VS.. Aldine Dove was
called. This was a case in which Mr..
Dove was charged by Clinton Ferrier
with assault with deadly weapon. A
jury trial was demanded and after
considerable difficulty the jury was
secured. Attorney Pike represented
the State and Attorney Burnett, of
Delta, the defendant. A great deal of
interest was manifested by the people
of Grand View mesa over the outcome
and they were out in tull force.
1t seems that considerable feeling
has existed between the Dove and
Ferrier families for some time past
over fence and this feeling eliminated
about the first of the month in which
free -for-all fight was indulged in with
clubs as the main arguments. Consid-
cradle damage was done and for time
physicians were needed. Clinton Fer
rier swore out warrant and the case
came to trial on Monday.
The jury on Monday failed to agree.
four of them being in favor of acquittal
and two in favor of conviction. The
jury was discharged and Tuesday
another one secured and the weary
round again begun. When the time to
deliberate had come it was found that
the jurv was unanimously in favor of
acquittal and it was so ordered.
The case was unfortunate in that it
seems as though the entire mesa had
taken sides one way or the other. The
feeling engendered will not die down
for long time and it will hurt the
people there. An effort to settle the
case was made but one of the parties
proving refractory this had to be aban-
doned,

The Delta Independent still
continues to knock the possibili-
ties of an electric road up Surface
Creek. However there are many
things which the Independent
editor may find out some day. -
Surface Creek Champion"
Well, now, we are actually
stunned, for this is the first time
the INDEPENDENT editor has ever
been called knocker. We are
tempted to start an ananias club
and put Brewer down as the first
member, but possibly we can
argue him out of it and if so we
prefer to deal as gently with the
young man as possible. We quite
agree with him when he says,
there are many things the INDE-
PENDENT editor may find out
some day." If we don't keep on
finding many things out it is just
as sure as anything can be that
we will have to go out of the
newspaper business, for an editor
must keep on finding things out.
He should try and find facts,
however. Dreams and generali-
ties are for poets and socialists.
We feel awfully bad about this
accusation of Brewers of our
being a "knocker. We have
been fooling the Surface Greek
and Cedaredge people and have
led a lot of them to think that
we belong to the booster class,
and now Brewer has gone and
exposed US. The INDEPENDENTS S
circulation among Surface Greek
people has grown rapidly and we
thought it might be due partly
to appreciation for the papers
boosting for their country, but as
Bro. Brewer has put us in the list
of knockers there must be some
other reason.
Brewer has never given us
much encouragement to push his
country, or, our work has beer
of such a quality that he has been
compelled to turn it down cold.
The first week we took hold OF
the INDEPENDENT we published
an article about Surface Greek
and said all the nice things we
could think of, but Brewer never
seemed to appreciate that effort,
at least he did not say anything
about it.
But, seriously, if it is necessary
to be called a knocker for telling
the truth we will have to stand
it. If the INDEPENDENT could

he had never heard of the phrase UNI
til his own mind had conceived it.
But even If it was proven that Lin
coin had appropriated the phrase, as
charged, the fact would initiate in
no serious way against his fame.
The greatest of the Germans, the
immortal Goethe, declared one day
to an intimate friend that If every
thing in his works that he had got
from others should be stricken out
he would not have a dozen pages left.
The greatest of the great in the
fields of literature, philosophy and elo-
quence have pillaged right and left,
and that, too, without stopping to
make any acknowledgment Of the
things appropriated
If the martyr president appropriated
the celebrated phrase in question
without going to the trouble of men,
tioning the person who was kind
enough to have helped him to it, he
only did what the majority of the
kings of thought had done before Kin.
