In an interview this morning in re-
gard to his stand upon questions of
athletics, Mr.. Mahoney said: There
is nothing better for the boys nor for
school than to take prominent
part in all branches of athletics. But
the attitude of the dead game sport
business must be cut out and atnlet-
les put on high, clean basis"
He also said: 81 don't know kow
many hundreds of thousands of dol
lars it would have taken to purchase
the advertising we got out of this
years Longmont foot ball eleven, and
it cost the Chamber of Commerce of
that city just ten dollars"
Il would like to see the boys in this
school do somthing in the track and
years ago the Longmont boys en-
tered for the state meet at Boulder
hut didn't win thing, but it arous-
ell their blood. Two years later '0Sy
we went over to Boulder resolved to
win the day or die. and we came
home with the championship of the
state safely tucked under our belts.
Then that fall we started In on
foot ball. and before we had finishe
we hid not only won the state cham
pionship, but had annexed the title
of national champions"
MI. Mahoney has been one Of the
mont High School athletes. Last
year after the smoke had cleared
away after the repay race, the last
and most exciting event of the day
and the determining feature, Mr.. Ma
hones might have been seen sur
rounded by the victorious heroes and
their supporters. leading the cheer
iBg which almost drowned tho brass
band. which was also footing for
Longmont. and which did much to
win the day for the little town. then
practically unknown outside OF its
own locality, but which is now
known all over the United States.
If Mr.. Mahoney follows up mis- in
tention of taking hold of the local
boys. they can feel themselves most
fortunate. and it will be the best
thing which could happen to local
athletics and the Grand Junction
schools in general.
While this school has always dab
bled more or less in athletics, rs n
whole this phase of high school life
has been neglected, and if Grand
Junction can be aroused to action to
take the place in this branch of cdu-
cation which it holds in the intellec-
tual branches there will not be n per-
son in the city who will not welcome
the change and feel that good work
has been accomplished.

the endeavor to solve the country life
question.
There must be vast enlargement
of voluntary. organized effort among
farmers themselves. 1t is indispens-
able that farmers shall work together
for their common interests and for
the national welfare. If they do not
do this. no governmental activity,
no legislation, not even better
schools. will greatly avail. The forces
and institutions that make for NOR
ality and spiritual ideals among rural
people must be energized.
There must be not only fuller
scheme of public education, but a
new kind of education adapted to the
real needs of the farming people.
The country schools are tosbe so re
directed that they shall educate their
pupils in terms of the daily life.
Opportunities for training toward the
agricultural callings are to be multi
piled and made broadly effective.
This means redoubled efforts for bet
ter country schools, and a vastly in
creased interest in the welfare of
country boys and girls on the part OF
those who pay the school taxes. Edu-
cation by means of agriculture is to
be part of our regular public school
work. Special agriculture, senoois
are to be organized.
The country people everywhere are
asking for good roads. Everywhere
too they want a parcels post and the
extension of the rural free delivery
The commission has purposely
avoided endorsing any particular Dill
now before congress, no matter what
its value or object. In the opinion of
the commission, however. there are
n +
most consequence that should be set
under way at the earliest possible
time because they are fundamental
to the whole problem of permanent
reconstruction. There should be or
ganized under government leader
ship comprehensive plan for an eN-
haustive study of survey of all the
conditions that surround the busi-
ness of farming and the people who
live in the country. in order to take
stock of our resources and to supply
the farmer with knowledge.
Each state college of agriculture
should organize as soon as practic
able. a complete department of col
lege extension. Local. state. and
even national conferences on rura
progress designed to unite the inter
ests of education, organization, ant
religion. should be held.
There is need for young people o
quality. energy, capacity. aspiration
and conviction, who will live in thu
open country as permanent resident
on farms or as teachers, or in othe
useful fields. and who, while develop
ing their own business or affai: /:
to the greatest perfection. will still
have unselfish interest in the wei

ously delayed, the wreck that

ed the track for distance of 1 30
feet and the snow WAS piled
on the track to depth of 40
feet. The slide run last night.
No train was struck but the
tracks could not have been much
more effectually blocked.

West bound RIO Grande passenger
trains No. ) and No. /. due here last
night about midnight. were caught
on the other side of the slide while
several of the east bound trains were
held on this side of the slide today.
\ big force of men were put to
work by the company last night

rotary cleaners are at work. Every
effort was strained to open the track
at the earliest possible moment and
the track was opened some time
today.

An Unusual Condition

Prof. Smith of the local Mining
School is visiting in the southern
country and inspecting the mines of
that section. One Of the most peculiar
sights he has seen is the wind mine at
Diamondfeld, socalled from the great
air current coming. from some unknown
quarter The mine is 300 feet in depth
and the air current is so strong that a
piece of paper is waited from the
bottom to the top. SO far scientists
have been unable to account for the
unusual condition, giving as their belief
the theory that the shaft must be sunk
near some ancient cave and the air
finds passage through the lime forma-
tion in the vicinity. Enterprise.

happened
The Eastern Star property at Frazer
Creek, owned by John Slavin and
partners, has been sold to the GLASGOW
q Western Co. The purchase price is
not known to the outside, but it will
put the owners on easy street for some
time to come, as it is considered to be
one of the best properties in this

Mr.. Neikirk, superintendent is in Salt
Lake looking after the shipping of the
mill. Mr.. G.. q. Rothschild general
manager is in charge and is having a
survey of the workings made. This
company have over 100000. worth of
ore blocked out. ?
The Geyman mill starts on 500 ton
run of ore from the Yaden lease this
week.
Geo. Storey and A. l. Corey have
started work on the Con V. Clipper
property, which joins the Queens on
the east. They get some very good
paintings from the surface and expect
to find the ledge in d very few days.
Mr.. L. L. Savage is expected in the
first of next week to start work on the
Elko Prince property.
1t is rumored that the Gold Crown
Co. are to put in their own mill in the
near future. They have large body
of good milling ore.
Several cases Of ptomaine poisoning
occurred last week. Mr.. T. E. Ludwick
was taken to Golconda Wednesday
where he was very sick for couple of
days before he was pronounced out of
danger. Mr.. and Mrs. L. B. Yaden
and their little son Boyde were
taken very ill soon after eating break
fast Friday morning. Help was
summoned from Midas, but it was we'll
into the day before they were out of
danger. ......>
We are all wondering why some of
the companies that own some of the
best ground in the camp don't wake up
and do something in the way of mining.
No better surface showings exist in
the State of Nevada than are to be
found in the Gold Circle District and it
seems that it is up to the poor leaser to
show it to the world. 1t is no wonder
people don't buy mining stock. Where
the companies are working there is no
stock for sale.

James j. Hill is the Joy of the reporters
heart. He is the best copy Of any man
in public life. He has always something
to say which reads well, and it is none
the worse for the fact that he sometimes
says it with his tongue in his cheek. The
New York American quotes hin to the fol-
lowing ~efteote:
III l should die this second, the Great
Northern railroads trains would run with
the same regularity with which they are
now running, the people along its lines
would continue at their gainful occupa-
lions, the farms would go on producing,
the mines giving up their riches, the for
ests contributing their accustomed share
to the wealth Of the land, the mills would
not stop. In a word, my death would by
no manner OF means affect one way or the
other the stability and progress of the
country, or even a small portion Of it,"
There is Just enough truth in the state
ment to warrant us in assuming that Mr..
Hin is as modest as many great men, and
therefore is apt to undertake his own
value to the community. In his own heart
he must know his statement would require
serious qualification. His death might be

Abraham Lincoln said al Gettysburg that
the world would not long remember what
was said there, but II would never forget
what was done there. As a matter of fact,
what Lincoln said there Is likely 10 be re-
membered when the memory Of the battle
itself is merged in that OF a thousand other
battles. and, indeed, only retains its place
in public recollection for what Lincoln
said. Eternal truth expressed in noble
words is the nearest thing TO immortality
which poor humanity has produced, and
the inspiration Of Lincoln's words, in spite
Of his modesty, must always be a national
asset Of enormous value.
