TO BUILD DAM
Engineer Arrives to Investigate Feas-
ibility of Project That Will Pro-
tect the Pumping Plants.
NEW DEVELOPMENTS DETAILED

The building of an immense con-
crete dam on the Grand river near
Palisade for the benefit of both the
Palisade Irrigation District and the
Mesa County (the stub Irrigation
District, the rushing of the work of
replacing the cribbing that was wash
ed out last Sunday at the headgates
of the stub ditch and the early settle
ment of all differences between the
two districts. are announced as the
latest developments in the irrigation
problem and controversies between
here and Palisade and in the Palisade
district.
Charles ID. Vail. civil engineer.

Vail. Walbran & Read of Denver. is
in Palisade making examinations and
Investigations in order to make plans
and specifications for the construc-
tion of a huge concrete dam on a plan
entirely different from the wall crib
bing plan now in use.
The building of the big dam is to
be done under the direction and at
the expense of the two irrigation dis
tricts.
A special bond issued to cover the
cost of the dam, will be made If such

election to be held in the two dis
tricts for that purpose some time this

THERE IS OPPOSITION
OVER THE TARIFF
REPORT
Will Not Have Easy Sailing in Sem
ate.-Urgency Deficiency Bill is
Passed by the Senate Today.
INSURGENTS ARE NOT PLEASED
IBy Associated Press. ]

Washington, July 31.-In both the
senate and the house today. there
We're intimations of opposition to the
adoption of the conference report on
the tariff bill which for long time
looked formidable. However, the sit
uation- in the house soon cleared up,
rvt the clouds did not disperse SC
rapidly in the senate. Seven or eight
of the original insurgents in the SEN
ate will cast their ballots in oppo-
sition to the report, but it is not be-
lieved that their example will be fol-
lowed by many other republicans.
The votes of IA republican senators
Will be necessary to adopt the con-
ference report.
After three hours of discussion the
senate passed the urgent deficiency
appropriation bill, including $25,000
for the presidents travelling expens-
es, the appropriations for executing
the tariff bill provisions, the reduc-
tion of the salaries of five judges of
the new customs court from S10
to $1,000 per annum and the reduc-
tion in salaries of other customs

Of FAIR
Board of Directors Decide to Return

Back TO the old and ever popular
custom of having a big Peach Day

Yesterday afternoon at an import
ant meeting of the fair association il
was decided after much discussion to
have Peach Day" this year.
Peach Day" will in all probability
be September %, the second day of
the big county fair and on that day
tons of luscious. juicy, peerless Grand
valley peaches will be given away to
the thousands of visitors who will
doubtless throng the fair grounds or
that day.

biggest fruit crop in the history of
the valley and the peach crop will.
break all records consequently q
Peach Day" celebration will be most
opportune this year.
Secretary Chapman and other Of
ficials of the county fair will at once
take up the work of perfecting the
plans for Peach Day" Every Wis
itor to the fair will not only be given
all the peaches he or she can eat
while at the grounds, but will be
given some to take home.
Peach Day will be widely ad
vertised and will aid in making the
fair of 1903 the biggest and best and
most successful ever held in Western
Colorado.

licenses from all places of amusement
that shall pay licenses according to
the provisions of the city ordinances.
The ordinances provide that all

There has been much discussion as
to whether or not the Y NJ. C. A, the
churches, lodges, etc, should not pay

TO do so, when these organizations
compete with the theatres by having

Several Hundred Grand Junction Peo-

MUCH INTEREST IN THE EVENTS

The baseball team accompanied by
a crowd of rooters and spectators for
the big Road Race, in other words the
annual roster of excursionists to
Glenwood which is each year becom-
ing larger, leave in the morning for
that city. The usual rates are made
on the railroads and the keen excite
ment and rivalry between the ball
clubs of Glenwood and Grand juno
ton as well as the fact that local
riders are booked to carry off the
money in the race, have assured the
largest delegation for this year,
which ever left this city for that sum
mer resort.
The swimming pool and other
amusements for which the Springs is
noted. will be running full tilt and
there is every reason why the day
should be red letter event in Glen
woods history. Aspen, Leadyille,
Salida, and the towns on this side of
the slope will contribute literally to
the assemblage but it is safe TO say
that no city will be as largely repre-
sented as Grand junction.
Both bali teams will strive hard to
raise their percentages as both teams
have been strengthened since they
last met, and the best games ever
resulting from the meeting of these

.L0NGSENTENCE
IS GIVEN LEWIS
Judge Sullivan Declares That Such
Youths as Lewis Should not
be Permitted to Go Free.
TEN YEARS IN REFORM SCHOOL

One of the longest sentences ever
pronounced in a juvenile court in the
western slope was given the Lewis
youth in Judge Sulliyan's court at 10
O'Clock this morning. Attorney Roz-
zelle for the defense entered plea
for mitigation of the sentence upon
a physicians testimony that the boy s
lungs were weak and that his health
was not such to withstand an i'm
prisonment for u period of great
length but the judge stated that he
was not inclined to consider the plea.
II is stated that the lad has been sent
TO the reform school several times
before and was at the time of his
arrest, out on parole,
Judge Sullivan expressed much
sympathy for the young mans moth
er and said that il would be possible
for him to shorten the sentence by
good behavior but was not disposed
to show any leniency in the case. He
was arrested few weeks ago for
stealing bicycle.
Young Lewis is said to have told
the officers that he wished that the
judge would sentence him to the
penitentiary instead of the reform
school at Buena Vista, though he did
not so state to the judge.
Ten years in the state reformatory
was the sentence given young Lewis
by the court. The court declared
that il was his duty to protect com
munity and that the permitting of
Lewis to go free WIS detrimental to
the best interests of the community.
Lewis claims TO be II years of age
but looks much older. He is "
feet tall. He has repeatedly been in
trouble

ADJUSTMENTS
At the Orpheum.

With the Dunhams. the worlds
greatest team of acrobats and aerial
gymnasts, as the feature attraction on
an otherwise unusually meritoriouS
bill booked for the present week,
Managers Mcintyre and VucoVich have
provided a treat par excellence for
their patrons-a treat that will with
out doubt be thoroughly appreciated
by the great mass of Orpheum pa
irons.
From Alaska to Australia, and from
Labrador to Cape Colony, the Dun
hams are almost as we'll known to
amusement lovers as they are to their
own home folk here in Pensacola
where both Mr.. and Mrs. Durham
were born and reared, and to be given
an opportunity of seeing them in their
professional capacity-in their mar
velous acrobatic act, will indeed prove
rare treat to their Pensacola friends
and observation-disclosures who have
watched with pride their promotion
TO the very pinnacle of their profess
sion.
In addition to the Dunhams, the
bill viii include the O'Rourke trio,
introducing Master Frank O'Rourke,
one of the cleverest juvenile singing,
dancing and monologue comedians
on the vaudeville stage; also Henry
w. Angel, an inimitable impeTsOnatOr
Of the e-Bellum darkey.
, Owing to the extraordinarily eX-
pensive character of the weeks bill.
Managers Mcintyre and Vucovich
have fouB5 it necessary to raise the
price of admission to the night per-
formances to p cents for adults. and
, cents for children. The admission
TO the matinees will remain as usual,
10 cents tC everybody.
The Dunhams will appear only at
the two night performances, the first
at 7:30 o'clock, the second at Q
