CITIZENS TICKET NAMED.

A citizens convention was called
at the hall to nominate a ticket for
the coming town election. The at
tendance was fairly good, the ladies
being somewhat in the majority,
showing that Collbran's feminine
contingent is alive to the need of a
wise choice of the officers who shall
direct the affairs of the town.
DR.. Kinke was chosen chairman
and A. r. Humeston secretary.
Nominations for mayor We're first
called fer. and on ballot A. e. Humes-
ton was chosen to be the peoples
candidate for this office.
Out of the long list proposed for
trustees the follinwing were select
ed as having the greatest number of
votes: Carr Marshall, B. F. Pitts,
Leon Turnbull, E. T. Klosterman,
F. NJ. Snider and e. ]. Ludlum.
This selection was duly certified
by the chairman and secretary, filed
with the commissioners and will ap-
pear on the printed ballot as the
"citizen's ticket" 1t is a good tick
ct, made up of representative citizens
to whom we can safely trust the des-
tiny of our little town.-Plateau

Parker Francis. Ava Humeston
and Dr. Arnold succeeded in begging
n cub bear on Salt creek. while on
their recent hunting trip. They
struck the trail of an old one and her
cub, and, being hard pressed, the old
bear put her cub up tree, as they
always do when in a close place,
while she took to the tall uncut.
When the party came up to the cub
their first thought was to rope it and
bring it in alive; but, as young bruin
objected to this part of the pro-
gram, slid down the tree and was
about to make off through the brush,
they were obliged to shoot it. Mr.
Humeston and the doctor feel quite
elated at the success of their bear
chase and are taking the cubs hide
back to show to their Iowa friends.
They might have secured the old bear
by waiting for her return, but as
neither. the fur nor flesh CT an old
bear is desirable just now, they VIII
wait until a more seasonable time
to return and have another chase.
The party caught plenty of mountain
trout while away and brought in a
big string for their friends. Plateau

The first of the week Joe Waters
and his wife went up Arastra gulch.
AS they were leading their horses
across a snow bank in a dangerous
place in the trail. one of the animals
belonging to George Boss missed his
footing and rolled down the hillside.
a distance of fully 500 feet. When
the animal was reached it was sup
posed he would be dead, but such
was not the case. With the eXcep-
tion of few bad cuts and bruises
about the head, he seemed to be
not much the worse for the fail.
The animal is now at George Boss
barn in town and he will probably
be laid up for two CT three weeks
with sore head.-Silverton Miner.

The little clipping from The Daily
Sentinel that we published last week
concerning the Denver & Rio Grande
railroads intention to build into Pla-
teau caused much comment, and not
few are inclined to believe there is
something behind it, 1t seems more
than coincidence that this an
nouncement came just at the time
the Fruit Belt Power Company Sc
cured franchise into Grand juno
tion. If this power company has for
one OF its objects an electric road in
to Plateau, may not this object have
brought the d. & II. G. to a decision
to build in and thus forestall the
electric concern? 1t is said that the
d. & r. G. is preparing to double
track its line. Ii So, might not the
second track be built through Pla-
teau from New Castle down? 1t is
certainly hoped that this is the case.
No matter what Grand JuIction's pa
pers have to say about the desirable
ity of an electric line, up here we
should prefer a steam road running
through and giving us an outlet east
and west.-Plateau Voice

Many republican newspapers are
given to criticising w. j. Bryan, who,
when free silver was a paramount is
sue IL years ago. was its chief de-
fender, because this issue is not mem
toned in the Denver platform. This
is very small, narrow-m minded pol
icy. Twelve years of observation and
education have brought to Mr.. Bry-
an greatly broadened views and
ideas, with increased information.
Furthermore, free silver IS no long
er an issue, and with all its alleged
shortcomings it is not to be expect
ed that Mr.. Bryan's party will take
up dead issues merely to please the
osition.-Tellurade Journal.

The local club went into a game
Sunday with the Luxus team, when 1t
should not have attempted to play
any game whatever. 1t had no
pitcher with which to meet the Luxus
battery ana for that reason the locals
were ingloriously defeated. 1t was
no game whatever from the stand
point of good ball, it was comedy
of errors from beginning to the end.
A very significant condition was
that Griffin and Richter, who form
erly played with the Grand Junction
team and who never made any show
ing whatever, seemed to play good
ball with the LuXus team. Griffin
was criticised at the very beginning
of the ball season in this city, as was
Richter also, for which The Sentinel
was belabored by the ball fans, but
had the criticism been needed that
worthy pair would have been gotten
rid of at the very beginning of the
season.
Another matter, which is a little
extraneous to the game is the action
of Metz, the LuXus pitcher. The um
pire. when he made an exhibition of
himself, before the men and espec-
tally the. women of the grand stand
should have had him run off the
field, even at the expense of a gen
eral fight. He was ungentlemanly
and took a very plain method of Civ
ing expression to that fact. He is
great big dub and his team managers
should either fire him off the team
or teach him manners, when he is in
the presence of ladies.
Had the local team had any sort
of pitcher and a few of the old
players they could have made the
Luxus look like thirty cents.
Miller of Fruita pitched several
innings, but they simply played with
him. Swearengen then went into the
box but in the first inning they bat
ted him very lively and added to
their score several runs.
The game was without any interest
whatever. Kitzmiller. Weybrecht,
Goldsworthy and Toner at third
played good ball. Wenkler at first
did his usual good playing. One
thing is most commendable about
Wenklers playing. He is never dis
couraged and always has cheering
word, right when things look the
worst. He is splendid first base
man and has done good work during
the entire season. There were no
great players on the Luxus team,
save Mcneil at third. 1t was bad
game throughout.
The score was l l to 3 in favor of
LuXus.
Saturday the Luxus defeated the
local team by a score of to 3. They
play again today.

This may not seem like a great
deal at first thought; but, when it is
known that an acre of ground will
hold 160 apricot trees, it might ap-
peal to one who is not familiar with
the fruit business. Figuring it at
this number of trees per acre would
make the neat sum of over $4,000
per acre that Mr.. Carson would have
received had he had a full acre of
apricot trees equally. as good as the
above, which would be possible.
But. If one were skeptical about
the business. we might say just cut
1t in half, and yet it would leave the
neat sum of $1,500 as returns from
one acre.

Demanding High Schools.

The last general assembly made an ap-
preparation of about S1jOO00 for the pur-
pose of encouraging the building of high
schools in the country districts Two
years ago the state appropriated 500. 0GO
for the same work. which led 10 the ex-
penditure OF s7,SOoO b ythe counties and
villages In order 10 get the benefit of this
fund and to avail themselves of it's pro-
visions. The board of education met here
Friday TO take up the matter OF appor-
tionng the fund. and IL was found that
the demand for funds To be used in con-
nection with these high schools is so
heavy that al the applications will have
TO be scaled considerably.
The public schools of the state have
never before been in such healthy AMI sat
isfactory condition as they are at this
time. and while the number of individual
schools has been lsssened the total num-
Der of teachers and modern schools has
more than doubled. and instead OF having
half dozen one-teacher schools in a sec
ton OF county there are now two schools
with three to four teachers, with a larger
attendance than the schools had when
