There passed away last night at
the hour of $50 O'Clock, at the home
of son at Pagosa Springs, Colo, one
of the pioneers not only of Grand
Junction but of the state of Colora-
do.
Samuel Patterson, Familiarity
known in Grand Junction to hun
dreds of old-time friends as "Uncle
Sammy" has passed from life. The
sun of his long and useful career has
set, peacefully and quietly he gave
came not Unexpectedly. AS an
nounced yesterday, his condition had
been very grave for many days, and
the children and other relatives were
prepared for the worst.
The remains will be taken from
Pagosa Springs to La Veta, Colo,
the scene of the first residence in
Colorado of the deceased, where the
funeral and interment will take place
probably on Tuesday of next week.
"Uncle Sammy Patterson was
born in Transylvania county, N. c..
in the year 1929. on November %.
Consequently he was in his S5th year
at the time of his death. He was
member of one of the oldest and
best known families of that section
of North Carolina. Far back, for
many, many years the family had
lived in North Carolina. 1t was a
fine old Scotch-Irish family, the fore
fathers having come over from the
old countries during the revolution.
In 1871 Samuel Patterson and his
family moved from North Carolina
to Colorado, and from that year, 81
years ago, he and his family have
made their home in the Centennial
state. The family settled in Huerfa-
no county, near where the town of
La Veta was afterward founded and
built. There for many years Sam
uel Patterson devoted his time to
farming.
For 15 years the family resided at
or near La Veta, and then Mr.. Pat
terson and his family moved to Mesa
county. He and his brother operat-
ed ranch on Hannah creek for a
time. Later they owned and operat-

who has been engaged in the shoe
business in Denver for a number of
years, has erected a residence on his
200 acres of young apple orchard, To-
Gated just west of Clifton, and this
week moved his family there, his car
load of goods arriving Wednesday
The Cross orchard is the pride of
the valley and is worth a neat lir-
tie fortune today. Mr.. Cross paid
less than $40 per acre forAthe above
tract less than six years ago. Today
it is worth from 5000 to $500 per
acre and this value will be doubled
in three years.

Jubilee Celebration of Formation Of
Many Blue Lodges

June Of Hhis year will witness the
semi centennial or jubilee celebration of
the formation of number of blue LODI
ges in Wisconsin of the Masonic frater-
nifty. It also will witness the fftieth
annual session Of the grand command
cry, Knights Templar, which will be
held in Madison on the second Tuesday
in October The session will be held in
that city for the reason that the grand.
commandery of Wisconsin was formed
in Madison fifty years ago. --ca-.--s-,.
1t is expected that the first eminent
commander Judge Henry L. Palmer and
also the first grand prelate, will be pres
ent upon this accession. Racine will send
la large number also. Among the blue
lodges of the state to celebrate the if
tieth anniversary, at any rate to reach
the half century mark, is Belle City
Lodge No. 90, Of Racine.
This lodge was chartered by the

appointed and authorized to organize
the body; Henry Burbeck, W. H. Rich

Wisconsin Sheriffs To Ask State
Legislature To Increase the
Term to -Four Years
RACINElAND KEN0SHA TO LEAD
Plans Being Made to Hold a State
Meeting of All sheriffs at Mime
apolis Following the Ma
tional Meeting in July

Sheriff D. Elmer Roberts of Racine,
was in Kenosha today for conference
with Sheriff Pfennig of this county III
regard to the completion Of a state
organization of the sherifs of the diff
ferent counties in Wisconsin and it is
expected that the officials in this Sec
ton of the state will take the lead in
this matter. It is planned to hold a
gathering of the sheriffs at Minneapolis,
Mimi, during the annual national gath
ering of sheriffs which is to be held in
the Minnesota metropolis early in July.
While the organization is being planned
as a helpful organization along many
lines, it is being formed with the strict
idea of securing new legislation in re-
gard to the terms of Office for sheriffs
III the state. At the present time there
is a state law which places the term of
all sheriffs at two years and there is
also law which makes it impossible
for man serving in the office of
sheriff to seek a reelection at the time
of his retirement The office of sheriff
is regarded as the best Office in the gift
of the people of the counties from
financial standpoint, but it is the only
one that limits the successful candidate
to a single term of two years. For
years the sheriffs in the state have been
objecting to this clause of the state
law as it is claimed that it is impossi-
BILE for the successful candidate to
make any money out of the Office under
the two years term. OF course this is
matter Of conjecture, but it is Ger
tain that the candidates for sheriff are
forced to spend more than any other
candidates for county Offices to secure
their nomination and election. The
man named for sheriff on the ticket is
always expected to contribute from two
to three hundred dollars to the cam
paign fund and his personal expenses
in the campaign are always abnormally
large. Notwithstanding this fact there
has never been time when the nomina-
ton for sheriff has gone begging Ill
Kenosha county.
! The short term of the sheriff has
long been complained against and there
is little doubt but that longer term
would prove beneficial not only to the
officers themselves, but also to the coun-
ties as it would assure the counties bet
ter service. It usually takes new
sheriff year to get acquainted with
the work of the Office and by the time
he has organized his force his term has
expired. The present sheriffs would not
in any way be affected by a change of
the law and as the legislature will not
meet until next year the law if passed
would not go into effect until the new
officials took their seats in 1911 By
that time the men now in office would
be eligible to a reelection to the office.

PRICE oF PRUNEs TO SOAR
Frost Kills Half the Crop, Is Report
From California

Prunes threaten to become a real
luxury and disappear from the menu
cards of many restaurants and board
ing houses. Reports from the Sacra-
mento valley and Sonoma, Napa, Teha-
ma, and Colua counties in California
indicate that late frosts have damaged
about so per cent of the growing crop.
Damage in the Santa Clara valley al
SO is thought to be heavy.
A normal crop of prunes would to-
tai about 17O,0OO,OOo pounds. Last
year about 100000 pounds were pro-
duced and this year, merchants say, the
crop is not expected to total over
100000 pounds. This deficit is ex-
pected to send prices skyward.
AS an Offset to the prune crop failure
California growers say they have the
best peach and apricot crops they have
seen in two years. Last year apricots
were sold at from II to % cents per
pound; this year they are expected to
decline to about 8 cents.

Columbia ConstructioMCo. Gets
Big Contract for Completion
ofChicago & Milwaukee
BIG TERMINAL TO BE BUILT
Receivership Will in no Way Interfere
With the Plans of A. G. Frost
in Regard to Completion of
Line to Milwaukee

After conferences lasting all day
Wednesday and until midnight We'd
nesday night and most of Thursday the
final arrangements and contract for the
construction of the Chicago Milwaukee
electric road were made at Milwaukee.
Those present at the conference Thurs
day were d. B. Hanna, vice president
Of the Canadian Northern railway and
one of the receivers appointed for the
Frost company; W. Irving Osbourne,
vice president of the Central Trust
company of Chicago and another re-
ceiver of the road; Howard M Carter,
attorney for the receivers; Jacob New
man, attorney for the bondholders; f.
A. Gregory, personal attorney for A.
G. Frost; r. B. Stearns, general manag-
er of the Illinois and Wisconsin cor
porations; George P. Miller, attorney
of the Columbia Construction company,
and G. G. Smith, president Of the Col
umbia Construction company
The question of what route to fol
low after passing over the Sixth street
viaduct in Milwaukee was discussed
at the meeting Wednesday afternoon.
After much discussion on this subject
/ it was decided to build the line down
st. Paul avenue and Clybourn street
to Fifth street instead of cutting across
private rights f-way which were being
considered.
The same form of construction that
Of track and overhead, will be contin-
ned. The lease made by A. G. Frost Of
the Plankinton property at Second and
Wells street will be taken over, where
a terminal station will be built. Els
Inmates have been given stating that
the station would be completed by the
middle of this summer. Four tracks
will run into the station.
The proposition made by the Column
bia Construction company taking over
receivers certificates to finish the work
started was received as highly salts
factory by both the receivers and at
torneys.
Work will be started in earnest just
as soon as the developments in the
court proceedings now pending shall af-
ford the opportunity. The Milwaukee
side of the deal is satisfactory and
the only thing in the way Of immedi-
ate work on the new road lies in Chi
cago. 1t is expected, however, that the
arrangements made in Milwaukee will
be received with the same spirit in
Chicago as they have been in Milwau-
kee.
The contract letting the work of CON
structing the new line to the Columbia
Construction company is now signed
and in the hands of President Gle
ment G. Smith of that company. It is
now ready to be presented to court for
final acceptance.
Mr.. Smith reported that the rails,
ties, poles, and other material for con
struction were on. hand.
