From Thursdays Daily.
Twenty-Five hundred or three thous-
and people from Canon City and the
surrounding territory greeted Presi-
dent william H. Taft when his spe-
cial train arrived at the Denver &
Rio Grande station here at $40 last
night. 1t was a welcome OF which
the king or kaiser might well be
proud, and, was a fitting tribute to
the chief magistrate of -iS repub-
lie.
With a public spirit and enterprise
that was commendable the Colorado
Light and Power company had, at IT'S
own expense, strung a double line of
incandescent lamps along the rail-
road tracks which brilliantly illum-
mated the surroundings, affording ev-
erybody an opportunity OF seeing the
president. The train, which consisted
of a baggage car belonging to the
New York Central & Hudson River
Railroad company. and the Pullman

elmere," and "Mayfiower." arrived
here promptly on schedule time, and
left ten minutes later for Montrose
and the western slope. The train
was one OF the most beautiful ever
seen here, its exterior hetokening a
luxury and comfort sufficient to ban
Ish most of the weariness of travel.
As the train pulled slowly through
the crowd to the railroad station the
band played patriotic airs, but ceased
when it came to a standstill and Gov
ernor Shafroth appeared on the rear
platform OF the "Mayhower." the pres
ident's private car. to introduce the
chief executive of the nation.
Governor Shafroth. in nicely
vorded and q very complimentary
speech. presented the president to the
great throng OF people about him. AZ
ter bowing his Acknowledgements to
the assemblage the president said in
substance:
'I am glad to stand on the same
platform with your governor, al

question to the qualified voters OF
precinct 20. the poll book showing the
returns made by the election judges
and the returns OF the canvassing
board showing the result OF the cleo
ton.
The defense objected to the petition
for many technical reasons. including
the failure to give the name OF the
town of South Canon following the
street number of the address OF its
signers. Further objection was made
to the petition on the ground that ex-
County Clerk Geo. P. Nix had no
basis for determining whether its
signers constituted forty per cent OF
the electors of precinct 20 at the last
preceding general election for 1t had
been created only four months before
the election was held. Mr. Nix on be-
ing brought into court testified that
taking the poll books OF the preceding
election and figuring the registered
voters residing within the territory
included within precinct 20. The de-
fense further objected to the assump-
tion that precinct 20 was legal pre-
cinct within the meaning OF the law.
for under the statute new precinct
can only be created within period OF
five months before the election. SIM
further objection was raised by the
defense To the complaint and the con-
tertion set up that precinct 20 Is not
such a precinct as is contemplated by
the local option statutes. for the term

Building UP the Town

CTHE TOURIST BUSINESS

Jones over on River street who has
a rooming house of mostly vacant
rooms now were getting $40 a day
from tourist roomers. What do you
supssse she would. do with that
money!
She would most certainly spend
every cent OF IL In Canon City. She
would use more and better groceries,
more and better clothes, more and
better hats, and pay cash every month
for the Daily Record. She would re-
furnish the house and redecorate II
and after a year or two OF such pros
perity she would do Just like a thou
sand rooming house women in Colo
RADIO Springs have done, build fine
new rooming house much TO the de-
light OF the lumbermen, hardware
men. tradesmen and plumbers.
So you see every time a tourist
spends a New York or Kansas dollar
bill In Canon City We all NEE; up with
1t mighty soon.
This side of the business is profit
able enough to look after II there were
nothing more. But there is more
lasting feature to it than this.
or the tourists who come West a
big per cent plan to come here TO live
sooner or later. People are more and
more appreciating the benefits and
pleasure OF living in this sunny noun
tain climate of Colorado.
Denver. Colorado Springs and Boul-
der have been built up largely by
Eastern money attracted there first
through the tourist
Bring a thousand people to Canon
City from the East for a few days and
a few OF them will come back to spend
the winter or send some friends here
who are looking for just such elm
ate and such a town.
Out OF these We will soon accumu-
late many permanent residents.
In the Middle Western states there
are thousands OF we'll TO do people
who are coming West to live. They
take tourist" trip first and locate
where fancy dictates.
The high price of farm lands of
Kansas. Iowa. Illinois and other such
states is making IL possible for thou
sands OF farmers to sell out and re-
tire TO a life OF comparative ease. To
such Canon City and our suburban
tracts appeal especially strong.
1t is piai TO see how all this viii

will MI the vacant houses and divide
up the fruit farms into smaller
tracts. II will fill up our vacant lots

There may be business men who won

II we spent $4,000 to get them here
we would be paying only 5 per cent
for the business-mighty cheap, don't
you think?
Who would get this money?
That brings to mind query from
grocer. He said yesterday How do
you expect n grocery store to profit
from the tourist business enough to
give 500 on your planT''
suppose he hadn't stopped to think
that tourists eat just as other people
more in fact, and that his very store
is supplying the bulk OF the groceries
for one hotel and several boarding
houses.
Wouldn't the grocery store be Tn,
wouldn't the grovery store be the
very first to profit by the hotels and
boarding houses being crowded by
tourists7

first goes to hotel or rooming
