w. Il. cr.amer at Denver.

The st. Adams Messenger has the fol-
lowing concerning q former Bethelite:-
ga list OF the Massachusetts Democrats
to the Democratic national convention at
Denver includes Walter H. Creamer of
Lynn. Mr.. Creamer has been . delegate
to national conventions before. When
he lived in Bethel, Vermont, he was .
delegate to the Democratic national con-
vention of 1895, refused to vote for the
nomination of Bryan, subsequently sat as
q delegate from Vermont in the Gold
Democratic national convention that
nominated Palmer and Buckner, and
served in the campaign that followed as
national committee man for that party
and ticket. Probably Mr.. Crearner can
vote for Bryan with better grace how,
seeing that the money standard will not
be in the issue. But he showed good
courage twelve years ago when be was a
vermonter and it is to be hoped his grit
is with him still, il there is occasion at
Denver for its exercise

Double Holidays.

The public will be interested in
the fact that this year we will
have three double holiday S.
Washington's birthday, Memorial
day and the Fourth of July will
all fall on Saturday, thus giving
the public three double holidays.
Ordinarily, these three do not
come on the same day of the
week, but by the intervention of
February 29th this year Wash
ington's birthday falls just four
teen weeks earlier than does
Memorial day, which regularly
comes five weeks before the
Fourth of July.
The advantage to the busy pub
lie of having these holidays fall
on Saturday so that they have
two days of leisure together is
obvious. In creating the last
holiday-Labor Day advantage
of these principles was taken in
naming the first Monday instead
of the selected day of month.
In 1909 Washington's birthday
falls on Monday, Memorial day
and the Fourth of July on Sun
day, which will mean a Monday
observance, so that for two years
in succession double holidays are
assured. In the latter year,
Christmas will also fall on Satur-
day, thereby affording the most
complete trial of the double holi-
day possible in our calendar.

New Bank at Kiowa.

The Kiowa State Bank has been
organized with a paid up capital
stock of $40, 900, and the new or
ganization commenced business
at the county seat on the 18th.
The officers are: William E. Mil
Ter, president; c. F. Hertel, vice
president; A. G. Rinnert, cashier;
c. w. Reed, assistant cashier.
This makes four banking institu-
tions for Ebert county.
When the editor of the Tribune
came to Ebert county seven
years ago there wasn't bank in
the county. Can anything speak
more forcibly for the prosperity
of this section of Colorado than
the mere statement that four
banks have been organized dur
ing that time?

A Good Opening.

There is an excellent opening
here at Elbert for a plant to
manufacture cement blocks for
building purposes, and we believe
a plant of this kind would find a
ready sale for its entire output.
We have an exceptionally good
quality of sand for the manufac-
ture of these blocks and an
abundance of water. Consider
able building will be done here
this year, and the price of lum-
ber and brick being so high,
cement blocks would find a ready
sale.

Destructive Prairie Fire.

According to the News, one of
the most destructive and extern
sive prairie fires for years swept
over the country some 40 miles
southeast of Calhan last Thurs
day. The fire originated from
the ranch home of G. G. Cole, %
miles southeast of Calhan, and is
supposed to have been started by
a spark from the stove. Being
encouraged by a strong breeze
from the west, the flames spread
rapidly over the dry prairie, and
within a few hours thousands of
acres of grazing land had been
burned over, and many tons of
hay, as well as some small build
ings, destroyed.
Among those sustaining the
heaviest losses were, C. H. Davis,
rs tons of hay, and the Sanborn
ranch, 60 tons. The entire win
ter pasture of the Sanborn ranch,
tract enclosed by 40 miles of
fencing, is also said to have been
almost totally destroyed. The
extensive ranch buildings of the
Collins & Denning people were
only saved by the prompt and
quick work on the part of those
at hand. The feed loss to the
ranchmen in that vicinity will be
quite a serious item, coming at
this season of the year.

RAMAH AND EAST eIJoU.

Jan. %. In connection with
the filing of three additional di-
rect informations against Mike
Altman of Ramah for the selling
of liquor without license, it be-
came known Saturday that he
made overtures to the district at
4orney's office in an effort to have
its influence exerted with the
county commissioners for the
granting of a license to him.
AltIpan is now in the county
Jail, awaiting trial on nearly a
dozen separate counts on the
charge of selling liquor illegally.
His aggregate bond is about
SIS, 900 and his trial has been set
for February 10.
Last fall, Altman applied to
the Ell Paso county commission
ers for license. He was re-
fused, and then went to the dis
trict attorneys office, and asked
its help in getting the license, in
timating strongly that success
would be rewarded literally. He
was informed that he could ex-
pect no aid, but that if he con-
tinued, he would be prosecuted.
He announced that he would sell
out. This he did not do, and up
on the receipt of many COM
plants, the district attorneys S
Office began gathering informa-
ton, which has resulted in his
arrest. t.-Gazette.

A town that never has anything to do
in public way, is on the way to the
cemetery. Amy citizen who will do
nothing for his town is helping to dig the
grave. A man that curses the town fur.
nishes the coffin. The man who is so
selfish as to have no time from his bust
ness to give to the city affairs is making
the shroud. The man who will not ad-
vertise is driving the hearse. The man
who is always pulling back from any
public enterprise throws bouquets on the
grave. The man who is SO stingy as to
be bowling hard times, breaches the fu-
neral sermon, sings the doxology, and
thus the town lies buried from all sorrow
