Leonard Imboden. convicted de-
faulter, former jail bird and bank
wrecl1er though he be, still has some
Qualities of manhood about him. In
his testimony before the Legislative
committee. he is saying some pretty
serious things. about men and their
acts. who have been looked upon
with the utmost respect heretofore
in Denver. He charges Judge Sterl-
ing b. Toney. who was made suca a
lion of socially in Denver, with at
tempting bIackmail. Some condi-
tions are coming to light that do
not paint Imboden so black as we
have believed him. That he was un-
trustworthy and made finance a game
in which he made use of the wealth
of others to make him rich is un-
Questionable. but in doing so he had
to pay dearly to some apparently very
respectable citizens.

We have no tears to waste over
the accident of Fred Marriott, who
lost an eye. broke several ribs and
some other portions of his anatomati-
cal structure, in an attempt to lower
the one mile record for an automo-
bile. His cigar shaped racing car
struck slight bump or the Ormond
beach track and it took a straight
shoot through the air and when Mar
riott was pulled out there was not
much left of him. The speed he was
going was somewhat better than 125
miles an hour or a mile in half
minute. Think of it. is there any
reason for the public to grieve great
ly over this accident? No scientific
end was to be gained in pushing his

The city council. upon the matter
of finally settling the question of con
tract for the mounain water system,
is making haste slowly. 1t Is to be
regretted that such is the case. but
it is certainly for the good of the

These cannot remain so permanent

justify every hour and every day that

the city from loss. It is the history

We might present an hundred rea-
sons. which would sound pertinent
to our ears, why the normal school
should be located here, but the pub
lie will realize that they would be
considered Indifferent to the peo-
pie of Delta. who are equally anxious
to secure that school. But to all
reasonable persons, aside from local
loyalty, it really must be apparent
that Grand Junction is the natural
location for such an educational in
stitution. To committee of dis
interested persons, residing outside
of the state, we should not antici-
pate any other verdict from them,
than that its location should be at
Grand Junction. The tendency al
ways, up to within the past dozen
years, was to locate such an institu-
tion away from the great centers of
population, but the contrary is true
today. We are greatly anxious that
western Colorado should nave such
a school at what is now and will, for
all time in the future. be its greatest
center of population, with all tthe ad-
vantages to accrue from such a con-
dition.

The farmer of twenty-five years
ago, who would have attended an in
stitute for instruction upon matters
pertaining to the conduct of his farm
or orchard, would have been looked
upon with suspicion by his fellow
husbandmen. The world moves rap
idly in matters of moment to the
farm and orchard, as it does upon all
other matters and the farmer or or
chardist who does not inform him
self upon conditions as they affect
his farm. garden or orchard, is soon
out of the running. The annual meet
ings of the county horticultural So
ciety in this city. are of immense
benefit and profit to the farmers of

Some Queer Sunday Laws.

Another nice thing that contributes to
the hilarity of the Sundays here and the
gayety of nations generally is that there
are no street cars running till after 9
O'Clock on Sundays. All the steam roads
bring thousands of people into the CITY
but they have TO walk once they are in
side the city limits.
And if you buy bakers cakes and mics
to be taken away from the premises You
may only buy them between 1 and 3. Sun
day afternoons. And you NAV not invite
friends to dinner with you in Sydney
which is in New South Wales and under
different jurisdiction, if you are living in
hotel. Because in some mysterious wav
which is not at all clear, you are break
ing the Sunday law.
If you travel with your wife from one
big city to another at night and take
sleeper, you will find that the men will be
herded in one end of the sleeping car and
the women in the other. That is the idea
of prOpriety here Also men and women
are not allowed TO battle in the ocean to-
gether.
The ocean baths are deprived of most of
their pleasure by the necessity of staying
behind tall fences which must be buii
and maintained to keep out the sharks
For they come right up to the beaches
here and while you are bathing they poke
their noses against the Stats and look
longingly at you.
There's actually a shark over in New
Zealand who is protected by law. He
pilots every ship in and out of the har-
Dor which he calls home. So the colony
has passed law making il misdemean-
or to modest him in any way.
