In last Saturday $ issue of the
Saturday Evening Post there is
quite lengthy article bearing
the above heading in which Mr..
Charles }. Hughes, Democratic
senator from this state, is men
toned as being "grimmer. than
John Grim The article states
that Mr.. Hughes was approached
by Washington reporter the
other day who desired to get a
story from him. No, SIR said
Mr.. Hughes, Il don't want to be
interviewed" at the same time
making very uncompiimentary
remark about newspapers.
This is certainly not making a
very good start and it is hardly
possible that it will win any adj
miration for the senator. The
article further says: The new
senator from Colorado is a self.

the plo ring was good. OF
course he borrowed the books.
Probably. too, it rained on them

him the books.
In conclusion the article states
that Mr.. Hughes will find that if
he gets to treating reporters
with such seeming Indifference
he will be handed back a few
lines of rather disagreeable con-
versation in his home papers
which will make him wish that
he had remained back in that

peared in several papers. that the re-
duction of duties ON lead bullion as
con templated in the Payne Bill would
not affect or iniure the mining inter-
eSts of Colorado.
son the contrary" said the Senator,
Il am in favor of The present duties
on coal, coke, sugar, marble, starch
lead ouliioa, pig lead, hides. and wool
and any other products Of Colorado
that is protected under the Dlngley
Law: and in addition to this | am op-
posed to the provision OF the Payne
bill permitting the importation OF
300, 600 tons of Philippine sugar free of
duty, and shall do all that in me lies
t. eliminate that feature from the bill
when it reaches the Senate. We have
growing industries in ali the above
mentioned articles, and at this time
we especially need The help and pro
lection that the present tariff
gives us. | believe in conservative
revision Of The tariff, but not in the
elimination or reduction of duties on
those articles upon which the welfare
of my own state is involved.
What disposition will be finally
made as to the duties on the articles |
have mentioned, l, of course. cannot
predict, but my individual efforts
shall be directed toward retaining the
present rates and protection afforded

Governor Shafroth has made hit
with the people of the state in his re-
cent message to the Legislature in
which he requests them to either re-
deem the pledges made by the Demo-
cratic party before the last election or
resign. The wonder is that this
message was not sent to the law max
erS sooner.
The Julesburg grit-advocate., 1909-04-02

Many of the towns around us are
putting the tramps to work on the
brought limits. 1t might be good
idea for Julesburg to follow this ex-
AMPLE for just at the present time some
of our streets are much in need of IA
little work done on them. We would
suggest that the trustees take this
matter under Amusement.
The Julesburg grit-advocate., 1909-04-02

Some of the newspapers are urging
the Governor to call an extra session
of the legislature in order that much
of the unfinished business may be COM
pleted. This, as every one knows, will
be rather expensive and should not
be resorted to unless absolutely
necessary.
The Julesburg grit-advocate., 1909-04-02
LET EVERYONE BOOST.

1t Is now hlsh time that every
business man and property own
er in Julesburg bestir themselves
in an effort to make the town
better-in other words that We
all begin to boost just as hard as
we can. The fact that nothing
comes to those who si' around
and wait is enough to spur every
one on to get in his most effect
ual ticks while the iron is hot.
This is the time of great things
and we are living in an age when
men accomplish wonders in much
less than lifetime. Nota single
resident of Julesburg will have
the audacity to stand up and tell
you they are not Interested in
the welfare of the town and yet
what are you doing towards max
ing it better?
Are you satisfied with the
present conditions: Is there
nothing left undone that you
would like to see completed?
Does your shoulder have blisters
on it from having it constantly
beneath the wheels of progress
or are you sitting with arms fold,
ed while the other fellow does
your share of the work!
These are neutrality-suspicious.
which cannot help but appeal to
your better judgement and we
earnestly and sincerely hope that
you will take them to heart.
Nothing has ever been acc ON
plished without great effort on
the part of someone and so if we
want our town to grow and become
prosperous we must apply our
selves with diligence to the task
of seeing that it grows. There
is no need for any radical reform
for the town has good start
along lines which if followed out
will result in the betterment of
conditions far above what has
ever been dreamed of. There
are towns where reformation
should be wrought but Julesburg,
we are happy to say, IS not in
this class.
Our town is ideally located and
there is no reason why it should
not become one of the best towns
in this part of the state in the
very near future. Are you will
ing to work with this end in view?
If you are the time isnow at hand
and it is up to you to take Oft
your coat of seeming Indifference
and proceed to do something.
At the present time there is a
proposition before the people for
the construction of a sanitary
sewer. This is one of the most
essential things to be considered
and the Grit Advocate hopes that
there will not be single straw
thrown in it's way. Uutil wehave
a sanitary sewer there can be no
permanent improvements hoped
for and in fact it will soon be
that our alleys and back yards
will be filed with stencil which
will be not only unbearable, but
mighty unhealthy. True it will
cost the taxpayers considerable
to build this sewer, but after it
is in working order there will
not be single individual in the
whole town who will have the
audacity to say aught but that it
was one of the best moves the city
government ever made.
BY all means let us go ahead
and build the sewer.

1t is very gratifying to the country
to know that the wretches who kid
mapped the young son Of James p.
Whiula, of Sharon, Pa, have been
captured and are now in prison. To
our way of thinking this is one of the
most contemplate, mean, dirty acts
that individuals can commit and these
beings should be given lesson which
will be criterion for all Others who
are contemplating jobs of this sort.
The only way to put a stop to this
kind of deviltry is to punish thost cap
tured to the fullest letter of the law and
1t is to be hoped that this will be done
in this case. 1t is certainly enough TO
bring up children in the right way but
when parents arc compelled to live in
fear of their being dragged away from
them by pack of contemplate wret-
ches who hold them for ransom it's
high time something was done.

Now that spring is on the threshold
we would suggest that every property
owner in Julesburg see to it that
things are cleaned up around his
premises. There is nothing which
makes a town look so we'll as to have
things nea. and clean around your
home. There are quite Il number of
strangers coming into this part of the
state every day and If we want to in.
duce them to locate here it stands to
reason that we must impress them
with the fact that this is the garden
spot of Colorado and there is no bet
ter way of doing this than to beauti-
fly our town. Rake up the dirt which
has accumulated about your home
during the winter and you will be sur
prised at the change yourself. Many
of oar streets and alleys are badly in
need of cleaning at this Time.

Various Reports.

The County School Board held their
annual meeting in this city on We'd

IL was the last meeting of the fiscal
year. and besides some routine busi-
ness which came before them they
were kept busy all day examining the
reports and checking up the accounts
for the past year.
From the reports that were made
by the superintendent il was shown
that a great inroad had been made
on the Indebtedness. and the schools
have not only prospered but in a large
number OF cases the terms have been
increased.
Not only Is the board 10 be compli-

TO the accommodating superintendent
is due thanks for the manner In which
he has brought this about, which can
be fully substantiated at his office by
referring To the records.
The public school interests of the
county never made a better showing.
and the property now owned is
larger than ever in the history of the
county. while il is of a much higher
grade in every section. owing to the
numerous sub-schoOl districts, which
has helped to bring them forward.
The annual report OF the superin.
tendent has been completed and will
be turned over to the printer within
