a YELLOW BUBBLE BURST.

Mesa County Democrat: f. E.
Bostwick returned Sunday evening
from several weeks visit at his old
home at Iowa CITY and was consid-
erably surprised Ind not a little an
noyed to find that the Daily News
had used his name for another fake
hlIer which was absolutely without
any foundation whatever.
Some time ago they came out one
morning with big scare heads and a
double column article telling how Mr..
Bostwick was securing many Of the
best farmers there to make trip to
the Grand valley with view OF To-
eating; that he had secured enough
that Il special train would be run. In
fact, 1t was the biggest thing yet
that was ever going 70 happen to ths
Grand valley.
That's the trouble: all the News
news is going to happen-maybe.
Mr.. Bostwiclt stated that he had
never even 50 much as thought OF
such a proposition. He simply lefl
quietly for home visit.

GREAT CROWD PRESENT
AT THE INSTALLATION

Last evening at Odd Fellows hall
joint installation of officers was
held by the local camp of the Mod
ern Woodmen OF America and the
local camp of the Royal Neighbors,
and the occasion will be remembered
as one of the brightest and most
enjoyable events occurring in local
fraternal circles this year.
over two hundred Modern Wood
men and Royal NeIghbors and their
friends were present.
The installation of the new officers
for the Modern Woodmen occurred
first, followed by the installation of
the officers of the Royal Neighbors.
The Installation services were inter
spersed with literary and musical Sc
lections.
One of the prettiest and best rem
dered drills ever seen in the Odd Eel
lows hall was rendered by the Royal
Neighbors.
Late in the evening an informal
banquet was served IN the banquet
room and then followed an hour oi

GREAT ATTENDANCE SURE
FOR MEETING TOMORROW

All is in readiness for the annual
meeting of the stockholders of the
Grand Junction Fruit Growers AS
sociation. which will be held tomor-
row at the Auditorium.
Al special train will bring several
hundred growers from Palisade, Clif-
ton, Bridges Crossing and Fruita
and, Of course. great numbers of the
growers will drive in from theii
ranches. The largest attendance that
has ever marked one of the annual
meetings will characterize the meet
ing tomorrow.
1t is safe to predict that Manager
Moore's report of the years business
will be the greatest report OF its kline
ever made and will show that the pio-
neer fruit growers association ha'
broken all of its past notable rec
ords.
The meeting will he open not on
ly to the fruit growers, but to al
other citizens who are interested ant

PUTTING UP ICE FROM
THE GUNNISON AND GRAND

The continued clear, cold weather
has resulted in the two rivers being
filled with ice of a most suitable
quality for cutting and storing for
the summer use. During the past
few days many men and teams have
been busy handling ice cut from the
rivers, and a large number of big
ice houses have already been filed.
The ice on the Gunnison is from 10
to IL inches thick and OF an unus-
ualiy good quality.
The presence OF good natural ice
this winter will result in the price oil
manufactured ice being much lower
to the trade the coming summer thar
II was last summer. 1t will be re
membered that last year there wa.
not enough cold weather to cause
ice suitable for storing to freeze al

PREDICTS DEFEAT FOR
 TIE CURRENCY BILL
Congressman Bennett Makes Close Canvass of House
 On AIdrich Measure.

NEW YORK, March 10.-So con vinced is MT. Bonnet, who represents one of the New York City districts in Congress, that the Aldrich currency bill will not be adopted by this Con- gress that he has communicated with officers of the State. Bankers Associa- tion, saying that after a careful can vass made by him and by some Of his colleagues he Is willing to be quoted as saying that the Aldrich bill cannot pass the House of Representa- tiyes. but also New York State, so that they could obtain from bankers and business men or the state opin- ions respecting the Aldrich bill This canvass was almost as thorough as a hearing by a commission would have been The questions asked by the representatives were in detail so that if there were objections to the Aid rich bill the reasons would be set forth, while on the other hand, if the bill were approved, the reasons for that approval would be brought to the notice of these CongrsSsmsa. This canvass reflected, if not unanimous, at least majority, sentiment through out New York State chiefly in op- position to the fundamental principle that is. in the Aidrich bill. Some bankers were frank enough to confess that if the bill became law it would be of special advantage to the banks in the great cities, and yet they felt that this advantage was really an un- fair discrimination in favor of these cities.
 It is apparent from comments made by soma of MT Reunatt's aSSociateS that they have by means of confer ences with fellow members of the House discovered that majority sen timent, both among Republican and Democratic members. is strongly ad- verse to the. Aldrich measure In the informal reports made by these New York Congressmen, in the nature of friendly communication to officers of the State Bankers Association, noth- ing is said of the sozcalled Fowler
