Tasitus the Roman historian writing Of tas

THERE WILL Be no FAIR
HELD WERE THIS YEAR

While 1t generally known among the
people of Canon City that no fair will
be held here this year it is not SO well
understood abroad, indeed, several of
the newspapers OF the Arkansas valley
are publishing from week to week the
date o: the Fremont county fair in a
list OF similar events to take place in
the southern portion Of the state.
The wisdom, or unwisdom of holding
a fair in Canon City this year we will
not discuss at this time; that matter
was determined by the board Of direct
ors OF the fair association after thor
ough canvass OF the subject. Fremont
county and the Canon City district will
be large exhibitors at the state fair in
Pueblo next month, and, as usual, ex-
poets to carry away lot of blue rib
bons. One man we know of sent no
fewer than six varieties of plums to
Pueblo on Monday to be placed in
cold storage and kept for exhibition at
the state fair, and many displays OF
apples and other fruits will go down
later.

FLORENCE TRIBUNE

On Wednesday, morning J. F. Tor
renee who for the last five years has
been an active life insurance agent,
assumed the management Of the
Daily Tribune.
The evening before. after the close
Of business. the final payments were
made and all OF the stock and hold
ings Of the Tribune Publishing Com
pany were transferred to J. F. Tor
renee and associates.
We do not know exactly what the
consideration was, but from the in
formation at hand, understand that
1t was $4,000. The notice OF transfer
appearing In the daily on Wednesday
evening under the management Of ].
F.. Terrence, gave the public no infor-
nation as to who were the purchas-
ers. Many rumors are afoat, and
these say that Lynn Smith, Micheal
Doyle, Russell Lindeman and perhaps
some other are the associates OF Mr.
Terrence In the deal.
1t announces that 1t will be inde-
pendent, but reserves the right to take
whichever side Of the political con-
troversy 1t considers right.
Ex-Parte has nothing but the best
of wishes for the success OF the new
management, and hopes that 1t fully
realizes and understands the respon-
sibllity attached to the publication
of daily paper.
A. P. Williams, 30 long the efficient
manager of the Daily, will act al
trustee for the old company and stay
with them until the end OF the month
to settle all accounts. He then goes
to the coast for a three months va.
cation.

lator, will sever his connection with

PHOTOGRAPHIC
VIEWS on EXHIBITION

In the show window OF the Baker 4
Biggs Mercantile company Is to be
seen a series of Photographic views
Of Canon City and surroundings which
the Merchants association has had
prepared for exhibition at the Interna-
tional tuberculosis congress to be
held in Washington, D. c., next month.
The photographs were made by Bah
berger, but we're selected and arrang-
ed under the supervision Of DR.. w. T.
Little, chairman OF the Merchants as
sociation committee having the mat
ter in charge. The pictures are artis-
tically grouped in three large oak
frames and cannot fail to comm3n al
tention.
There are about twenty views in
the series and combine to make a very
effective bit of advertising for the city
1t is understood that an effort will
be made by the Merchants associa-
ton to provide similar groups of pic
lures to be hung in the lobbies Of the
Brown Palace hotel in Denver, the An
tiers at Colorado Springs and other
big hostelries OF the state.
Advertising OF that character will
do much to make Canon City a great
tourist resort.

ANGLERS CLAIM many
FISH DIE m DITCnES

A NUMBER or PueblOan9 who have
been angling for trout in various parts
of Colorado have decided that the at
tention of the game warden should be
called to violation of the law which
they think is altogether too infrequent
The alleged violation is the failure to
screen irrigation bitches. Among q
number of fishermen who have dis
cussed the subject there has been
some hesitation. as 1t was thought
those who took the matter up might
have wrong motives imputed to them.
The furnishing Of information of this
offense is repaid by one-half the fine
in case of conviction. but those who
have looked into the matter would
rather have the law enforced than to
try to collect any part of the probable
fines.
In fact, they do not believe that
prosecutions would be advisable, but
that the farmers who do not use the
screens should be told to put them
in, and let the matter drop at that.
Thousands Of fine gsh are annually
killed by the failure Of the farmers
to provide screens for their irrigating
bitches. The hsh enter the bitches.
and are all right until the water II
turned on. Then they may be picked
up by the basketfull.
Considering the difficulties under
which the sportsmen work in catching
a few fish each day or even the limit
allowed by law, they think that every
safeguard possible should be placed
around the fsh.
1t has been estimated that at least
half as many flsh are killed In Colo
as are placed in the streams by hatch
cries.
One Puebloan who was warned by a
deputy game warden because he
caught several trout this season which
were a quarter OF an inch below the
legal limit. was particularly sore over
his experience. inasmuch as he was
fishing on several streams where none
OF the bitches were screened. And
when he was warned from the prem
ises OF farmer. who objected to fish,
ing on his land, he rose in his wrath
and said a few things which caused
the farmer rather hastily to extend
him an invitation to nsh there A. long
and as often as he pleased-Pueblo

POWER COMPANY'S PLANS
ALREADY BEARING FRUIT

The promise made by the Kansas
Colorado Power & Railroad company
in relation to the early construction
of it's electric railroad and transmits
sion lines from here to Garden City,
Kansas. and the assurance it gives
that the arid land of the Arkansas
valley can be irrigated and made to
blossoms as the rose by means of
pumps operated by power from its
project, has induced thirty families to
take up claims on a tract nine square
miles in area a short distance north
of La Junta.
The land Is very rich, but hereto
fore 1t has been too far above the
water level to permit Of irrigation.
The new company plans to pump wa
ter above the land and has positively
stated that this land can be irrigated.
The land has been settling up rapidly
and entries are being made every day.
The company has given assurance that
the highest land in the tract can be
reached.

REFORMATORY PRISONERS
THE HARDEST TO HANDLE

Parole Oficer A. H. Smith of Pueb-
10 was here on Monday, on business
connected with the convicts from the
state penitentiary out on parole, over
which he has a sort of general super
vision. Mr.. Smith says that keeping
tab on the paroled men from the PEN
ftentiary and the reformatory at Buena
Vista is a somewhat strenuous job
and that his official duties are such as
to render him a pretty busy man.
He says the parole law appeals
strongly to the better instincts of the
men who are subject to its provisions
and that few of them deliberately vio-
late it, especially those who came from
the penitentiary. 1t is less sacredly OBJ
served by the young men Of the re-
formatory than the older ones of the
state prison and good deal more
trouble is given Mr.. Smith by the in
mates of the institution at Buena Vista
than the one at Canon City.
There are in this state Two men out
on parole for life, but for obvious rea-
sons their names and addresses are
withheld. They have been outside the
walls of the prison for several years,
but will be subject to any special reg
ulations its officers shall make as long
as they live.
