HORSES AND MULES AT AUCTION
Enormous Prices Paid Tor Drait
Animals In Greeley District

No better evidence of the pros
perity OF Weld county FARMERS IL
needed than is given by the prices
paid for draft animals Monday al
the sale of George Emerson, one
mile west of the LAGRANGE school
house.
A large crowd of buyers was in
attendance and the bidding was tas'
and spirited.
Eight head of horses and mules
brought s2440 and five head ave
ragged $40 each. One span of mules
went for $3.50 after lively scarmole
among the bidders and an odd mule
brought $500.
A team of gray mares kept the
auctioneer's hammer in the air until
they reached the mark of SI15. the
highest price ever paid at auction
for a grade team in this part OF the
state.
These were not fancy stock nor
were any of them registered. They

such as the farmer needs in his work.
The above prices are proof of two
facts. that the Weld county farmer
is willing to pay for what he wants
and that he has the money to do it.
Kemmerer and Gordon conducted
the sale and its success is largely
due to them.

Denver Horse Thieves Prove to BE
Brothers from Philadelphia

A. L. Baker. deputy sheriff of
Denver came up Saturday for the
two horse thieves captured here Fri
day. To Mr. Baker the boys confes-
sed that they are brothers by the
name of Murray, that their home is
in Philadelhia. and that they started
out four months ago to be real tough
cowboys. The older one put up a
bold front and ran a good bluff at
indifference but the younger one
plainly showed that he was not at all
pleased with the turn affairs had
taken. Their outdoor life will prob
ably be changed for temporary

IOWA SENATORIAL SITUATION

Gov. Cummins OF Iowa does not
seem to have settled the senatorial
succession by convening the legisla-
ture in extra session. The stand
patters are by no means ready to
bury the hatchet and are ready to
center their fight in the leadership
of ex-governor Larabee.
The Cummins element say that be-
fore they will allow Larabee to be
elected they will combine with the
democrats on short-term senator,
leaving the big fight for the next
legislature which will contain many
new members. II the ii2ht is not
