TELLS Of THEIR
TRIP TO VALLEY
Prominent South Dakota Men Invest
Here and They Declare That the
Valley is One Of the Richest
Throughout the West.
THEY MET MANY FRIENDS HERE

A very interesting account of a
visit a number of prominent South
Dakotans recently paid to the Grand
valley and to other portions of the
west and middle west appears in the
Saturday issue of the Daily Public
Opinion of Watertown, S. ID. The
Sentinel reproduces that portion of
the article referring to the visit to
this city and valley, as follows:
"Messrs. II. L. Hopkins, A. Weaver
and F.. J. Cory returned. last evening
from an extended trip through Colo
RADIO and other portions of the Rocky
Mountain region Their trip was pri-
marily for the purpose of inVestigat-
ing the irrigated districts of Colorado
and Utah. with a view to investments
They express the opinion that the
Grand Valley region in Colorado is
one of the richest and most fertile
sections of all the irrigated or irri-
gable lands in the west. They made
some small investments there and
contemplate further operations along
the line of developing some of the
unimproved fruit lands tributary to
Grand Junction as trade center.
These gentlemen met many for
mer South Dakotans. At Grand juno
tion, for instance, there are several
former Clear Lake families, among
whom is that of J, c. Plank. who was
formerly engaged in the mercantile
business. Mr.. Plank is said to have
quadrupled his fortune during the
seven years that he has resided in
the Grand valley. Another former
Clear Lake man is ID. f. Jones. an
old-time friend of DR.. Lee Stuten-
roth. with whom the latter spent a
few weeks last fall deer hunting in
the mountains surrounding Grand
Junction. Dr. Stutenroth was ac-
oompanied by his wife, and during
their sojourn in Colorado they were
guests of Mr.. and Mrs. Jones. c. NJ
Eichinger, also a Clear Lake boy
brother of Oscar Eichinger. formerly
of this city. is the owner of a 20-aore
fruit ranch near Grand Junction, and
he. too. has done remarkably well
there. rE

THIS VALLEY
FAVORED AGAIN
Rains Here not to be Compared With
the Deluges That Have Been
Sweeping Over Many Other
States Past Few Days.
LESS THAN AN INCH IN As HOURS

With big rains pouring down in
the Missouri and Mississippi river
valleys, with almost unprecedented
rains reports from st. Louis, Kansas
City, and many other cities, with
rains east, west, north and south of
Colorado, it is not to be wondered at
that the state of Colorado is getting
quite a series of heavy showers, un-
usually heavy for this time of the
year.
But when it is announced that
Kansas City has had rainfall of
nearly three inches in As hours and
many other points have had more
than two inches in the same length
of time, while Grand Junction has
had total rainfall, from Saturday
night until noon today, of only
76-1O0th of an inch, just a trifle
over three-fourths of an inch. it can
readily be seen that this section has
Jared better during the unexpected
season of general and heavy rain
storms than almost any other section
of the country.
Last night but little rain fell. The
skies cleared early this morning but
did not stay clear long II has been
partly cloudy all day. with two or
three flurries of rain. II is prom
ised that the weather shall be fair
tonight and tomorrow. Rains fell in
many parts of the state again last
night and today.
The highest temperature recorded
here yesterday was 81 degrees. The
temperature at o'clock this morn
ing was "a degrees.
Todays weather map gives the
forecast and general conditions as
follows:

of Employing a Man to Train
Local High School Athletes.
Bernard is Favored,
BOARD TO DECIDE THE MATTER

AT special meeting of the board
of education of the public schools
this afternoon will come up the seIec-
tion of football coach for the ensuing
year This is a question which has
to be regarded in no trivial light. The
coaches in the large schools are just
as superior to the common run of
football men as the high up mem bers
of the faculty are to the gist of the
profession. While no one will rate
a school by the athletics which il
maintains or the football team il
supports, followers of the sport are
a unit in affirming that you never
find a topnotch football team, or
any other star representation of
athletics in an inferior school. I'm
questionably they go hand in hand
The education of the mind progresses
on parallel to that of the body and
health.
The people of this city are justly
proud of the record made by the local
team last year. II was their first
venture in outside circles and when
they returned from their eastern
slope trip with ringing victory, if
was splendid boost for the school

was a fine endorsement of the quality
to the school, and great surprise to
the followers of the game throughout
the state. The one man who prob
ably deserves more credit than any
other man connected with the team
was Mr.. Sill Bernard, college man
and at the present time member of
the city baseball team. 1t is under
stood that the position is again to b.

to be hoped that financially he will
be placed on base where he will not
be handicapped and where he Can
bring out all that is In the boys He
is msn of sterling worth and his
last years work speaks enough for
| his ability as a coach. If he can Ss
prevailed upon to take the job, be
yond doubt the best team in the
history of the school will result
Football season is near at hand and
waits only for the selection OF the
coach. No selection could be made
which would be more popular with
the students than the selection of Sill
Bernard.

In his weekly review of Wall Street conditions, Banker Clews takes a somewhat optimistic view. The stock market is more active; orders for iron and steel have gained in amount; gen. eral trade reports are encouraging clearing house returns in leading cities show business improvement; railroad earnings are increasing; tariff agita- tion has been largely discounted. On the other hand, the crops are matter of earnest solicitude;" imports are in creasing; the s11O,0OO,O00 in gold brought here after the money panic" has practically all been returned; the deficit in government revenue must be met by withdrawing funds from depos- itory banks, by drawing on the Treas ury's cash balance, by issuing bonds. According to MT. Cews, "the Treas ury's real embarrassment is more due to an extravagant Congress than to any temporary deficiency in revenue"
 MT. Clews finds reason for conf dence, but it cannot be denied that the untoward conditions cited by him may reverse his position at any moment.
