contaminated. The area OF the three
squares Is approximately 10000 square
feet Including improvements. which
consist OF some wooden buildings, the
average price per foot is s1.77.
The deal, by setting a value on real
estate FOR one OF the public buildings

naturally establish a precedent for fix
ing prices on property in the vicinity

for a time the Treasury Department
considered that the property owners
had placed too fancy a price on their
holdings. ard although it is not known
how much, II any. they reduced their

doubt on the subject
The result is likely 10 be seen at some

Some leaders of the opposition parties
who claim to be great admirers of
President Roosevelt and who find many
teings about his administration which
they claim to endorse and yet they are
now very busily engaged trying to dis
credit Secretary Taft as a presidential
candidate simply because, as they claim
he is Roosevelt's candidate. This is
certainly anything but consistency. If,
az claimed, President Roosevelt favors
the candidacy of Secretary Taft, itcer-
tainly should be nothing to the discred-
it of Secretary Taft but shows very
clearly that President Roosevelt re-
CARDS him as a safe man for continuing
the more important features of the
Roosevelt policy.

Don't Fret,

Don't get discouraged when you hear
What people say about you;
Don't get the blues and drop tear
Because they chance to doubt you.
Don't go around with troubled brow,
Overlooking all life's beauty;
The folks that talk will suffer more
Than you, so do your duty.
Don't fret and fume and wish them ill
Their lives hold little pleasure;
Send back message of goodwill
Twill serve to heap your measure.
Don't be discouraged, for the world
Will always criticize you;
Earth's dearest treasure is the few
True friends who love and prize YOU

The Colorado Farmers Produce &

of S25, 900 has been organized at Jules
burg in Sedgwick county. We do OF

ISOLATION but are told that il proposes
10 fight the trusts and secure favorable
legislation. OF necessity II will take
part in political movements, those be-
hind it having said that this would be
done, but nothing is mentioned about
It in the incorporation papers. The
association will buy, sell, export and
import farm products, especially grain,
beets and a few staple products of that
nature. II it has good luck It will
build elevators, mills, store houses
granaries and commission houses, pro-
viding It's own markets In order to
compete with the trusts and drive them
out by dealing directly with consumers.
This business Of driving out trusts is
an uphill pull and looks a good deal like

County Fair.

You will see in this issue call for a
fair meeting to be held at the court
house on Thursday of next week. Mr..
Worley notifies the people that, II they
want fair next fall. to attend this
meeting and that, II no fair is to be
held, the fair buildings will be sold.
Now, the people Of the county are up
against the question as to whether a
county fair will be held or the fair as
sociation Abandoned The people Of the
county cannot afford TO abandon the
county fair. The county fair and the
farmers institute are two enterprises
that the people should hold on to, for
they are not only splendid means for
advertising our county. but they also
are great encouragement to the farm
ers Of the county in the line OF improv-
ed farming methods and better grades
Of live stock. The officers of a fair as
sociation cannot hold fair without the
aid Of the people OF the county and IL
you do not take enough interest In hay-
ing fair TO attend these meetings
when called, you should not be heard
to complain II no fair Is held. Attend
this meeting and let the officers OF the
association know that you want fair
and that You will do all you con to help
make II n success.

The sand cherries seem to have gone
the way of the cacti. 1t was only a
few years ago that the delicious fruit
was gathered in great quantities byour
settlers and preserved or otherwise ta-
ken care of for winteruse There were
two varieties, the bitter and the sweet,
and were of better flavor than the tame
fruit. The only way we can account
for this disappearance is that the in
crease in moisture and cultivation of
soil is detriment to the growth in the

The democrats had rather bad success
with the Bryan banquet recently held
in Denver. 1t proved to be banquet
with the banqueting left out. After
the guests had been seated at the ban
quet tables, the walters went out on a
strike and the result was that eating
program had to be dispensed with and
the guests were forced to listen to Bry-
ans banquet speech on empty stomachs.
This strike of the union walters. con-
Quoted as it was, was certainly no cred
it to the cause of union labor. 1t is
such unreasonable actions as this by
the labor unions that causes 50 much
criticism on organized labor. Mr.. Bry-
an was a guest of the city and the
walters should have had enough pride
in helping extend the hospitality of the
city to the distinguished visitor. TO have
restrained them from such disgracefu
action as a strike at the banquet.
