class the Great Western as a bubble
and from this source the assertion has
been made that the policies now held
in Utah in this company are of very
little value.
Good Roads.
Advocates of the good roads move
ment are planning TO hold a state con-
vention at which the subject of inn
proving the highways all over Utah
will be discussed. No date has yet
been set for this convention, Judge
Howell Of Ogden originated the idea
He thinks that the good roads move
nent is matter of too much import
ance TO be confined to any one Sec
ton of the state. and that il should
embrace every county. He thinks that
the state legislature should make an
appropriation for good roads,
Utah's Money.
The question of keeping Utah's
money within the state is again being
agitated. 1t is asserted that the east
ern mail order" houses are draining
many sections of the state of the cur
rency in circulation, and that as a re-
suit merchants here are being asked
to extend credit to their patrons, while
the eastern houses are paid in cash. II
il said that IN some small places from
$500 to $500 is sent out of the state
every month. The total amount which
flows out of Utah in the course of 2
year. at this rate, it is said, must
reach an astonishing sum.
Were this money kept i'm the state,
ii is said, the effect would not only be
felt by the merchants, but by the very
persons who are sending their cash
east.
Advocates of the buy at home" poll
cy state that the idea that articles can
be bought from mail order" houses
at a cheaper rate than from merchants
established in a community is fal-
lacy When express and freight are
taken into consideration, it is asserted
the buyer fares much better in the
home market, where he also has a
better opportunity to select and test
the article purchased.

NIGHT SESSION
OF BOTH HOUSES
Congress Making Strenuous
Efforts to Get Through
and Go Home.
MUCH REMAINS TO BE DONE
SEVERAL IMPORTANT MEAS
URES IN CONFERENCE.

Washington, May 23.-When the SEN
ate met today there was a general IN
derstaanding that nothing would be
done to delay the final adjournment of
congress, and that no legislat ton would
be enacted beyond completing consid-
Grafton of the great supply bills.
The net result of the days session
was the adoption of the conference
agreement on the omnibus public
buildings bill and the approval of a
partial agreement on the postoffice APP
preparation bill, the items in the latter
measure relating to weighing the mails
and ocean mail subsidy being sent
back to conference. Various questions
were discussed during thet day. Sen
ator Teller reviewed court decisions on
the limitations of federal power under
the constitution, and referred to a re-
port that the president had stated in a
letter that he would veto certain leg
islation IL passed by congress as an
evidence of unwarranted encroach-
ment upon the powers of the states.
Breach of Privilege.
Mr. Teller was followed by Mr.. Ba-
con, who declared that the president
statement in his message of March p,
ing the right Of the government to
charge for power on navigable streams
in connection with legislation respect
ing water power privileges, was a
gross breach of the privilege of the
senate" He said he would have intro
duced a resolution providing that this
matter be considered by the commit
tee on privileges and elections. but
being member of the minority he
feared his act would have been re-
garded as partisan.
Mr.. Owen of Oklahoma spoke on his
joint resolution providing that an
amendment to the constitution for the
election of senators by the people be
submitted to the states for ratifica-
ton. and cOntended that the iegisla-
lures of twenty-seven states having
voted in favor of that reform, the sem
atOrs from those states should support
his resolution. He moved a vote on
the passage Of the measure but mo-
ton TO send it TO the committee on
privileges and elections was carried by
a vote of 80 to 20.

WAS BIG
SUCCESS

Grand functions Fourth of July
celebration was a success from begin
ming to end and the various commit
tees. headed by General Secretary
Will A. House, of the Y. NJ. c. A. are
to be congratulated upon the splendid
manner in which they planned the
many interesting, wholesome and en-
tertaining features of the day and
evening. 1t was truly an enjoyable
celebration and the several thousand
people who came to the city from the
surrounding towns and country dis
tricts We're highly pIeased with the
treatment they received. Such cele-
brations do town good.
The weather could not have been
more ideal for the celebration. and
every other condition was favorable.
All day long the fair grounds, the
scene of the sports, races, ball games,
etc, were thronged with people. 1t
is estimated that not less than 5000
people saw the ball game in the af-
ternoon and fully that many were
out in the evening to enjoy the mag
nificent display of fireworks.
Every feature was enjoyable. The
formal patriotic exercises held just
before noon were attended by at least
5000 people. The address by Joseph
NJ. Black was easily one of the strong
est most forceful and most beautiful
addresses of patriotic nature ever
heard here.
The accommodations afforded the
crowds at the fair grounds. were most
satisfactory.
There was not a single serious ac-
cident at the fair grounds during the
day or evening in spite of the great
number of people present.
The display of fireworks in the
evening was equal to any seen here
in years.
There was a general suspension of
business throughout the city and
county and everybody seemed bent
on making the most of the holiday.
Grand Junction celebrated in the
proper spirit and manner and there
occurred no fatal accidents or unfor-
tunate disturbance to leave unpleas-
ant memories of the occasion.
1t was jolly Fourth and Grand
Junction did herself proud.

FARMERS INSTITUTES

The Colorado Agricultural college
held forty-eight farmers institutes
during the month OF June. These
institutes were attended by 1875
peop'e. At most of the meetings the
interest was even greater than at
those of last year. Twenty of the
college Instructors attended one or
mere CT these institutes and nine lee
turers not connected with the college
assisted.
On the institute trip covering the
northern part of Larimer county,
each speaker Travelled 173 lniles by
railroad and 243 miles by stage and
wagon. On one day trip of eighty
miles was made by stage. During
one week five sets of speakers were
holding institutes, and during anoth-
er week four sets.

writeup of the Grand valley, its
towns, its resources, its orchards and
ranches, its financial strength, its
possibilities, the results accomplished
here and the valleys future. The ar
ticle is well illustrated and is easily
one of the best writeups and adver-
tisements of the city and valley that
has appeared in long time. 1t will

YOUNG LADIES PROVE
MOST CHARMING HOSTESSES

Perhaps the most beautiful So
cial function that marked the
local celebration of the nations
birthday was the large party
given in the afternoon of Sat
urday by Misses Eugenia and
Margaret Kelly, ut their pretty
home on the corner of Fourth
street and Ouray avenue.
About half hundred young la
dies were the guests and several
hours were merrily passed.
The home was most cunningly dec
GRATED in the national colors. The
large porch was a patriotic picture
in itself, and the rooms on the lower
floor of the home were equally as
enchanting.
In every arrangement there was a
suggestion of the day and its mean
ing.
A flag contest was one of the many
pleasant features. The guests were
asked to identify flags of many ma
tions. Miss Hazel Ella was the most
successful contestant.
Whist was enjoyed, and Miss
Daisy Kirk won the favor.
The national color scheme was car
ried cut in the service of the re-
freshments. The ices, cakes and
mints were in red, white and blue.
The tally cards in the whist game
and the guess-record in the flag con-
test were very daintily designed.
Music numbers by several young
ladies added to the many pleasures.
The Misses Kelly are truly sue
cessful entertainers and their party
was a happy occasion.

Grand junction DaSe Dali team
last night announced that the
present team will be disbanded
and releases will be issued at
once to practically all of the
members of the team.
Saturdays game, played before s.
900 people, resulted in a score of IL
10 l in favor of Glenwood. 1t was
a decidedly poor contest. Cook
pitched badly, but his support was
also very inferior.
Yesterdays game drew but a very
small attendance, as the fans were
displeased with the showing made
by the local team and few people be-
lieved that they would get their mon
ey's worth if they went out to the
grounds yesterday. The paid at
tendance was less than 100. How
ever, the Grand Junction team made
& fairly good showing yesterday in
very slow game, and won out over
Glenwood by a score of 8 to 6.
Fridays game, as previously an
nounsed, resulted in victory for
Glenwood by score of - to -.
