In one of the hardest fought con-
tests ever seen at Recreation park
the Indians romped away with the
game yesterday afternoon, just
when victory looked sure for the
Champions, winning by the score
of to /. 1t all happened in that
fatal sixth inning, and by the way
the Indians have been hitting in
punches lately, and the fans never
know when they are going to start
something.
In the sixth Altman came to the
bat with a determined look on his
face that sent the grandstand and
bleachers wild when he damned
out three Dagger right over third
base. James, next to bat, singled
over second and Altman trotted
home, tying the score. Weed SIC
rificed, forcing James to second
base. Brinker then sent one to

run in the fourth inning.

THE HOME MERCHANT

without any thought OF sentiment
or suggestion that we owe allegiance
to anyone. the cold, hard truth is that
the retail merchants of our home town
are the best business friends we have.
The retail merchant conducts a
school of commerce for our education
and the tuition is free. Every man,
woman and child gets the benefit of
seeing in the home town about any
thing that is of real Importance. He
protects us against fraud and deceit.
He stands for the square deal.
You never bought a $40 lightning
rod of your home merchant and then
found your note for thousand dol
lars in the bank next day as a result.
You never paid him $50 for range
that warped out Of shape in six
months-without your wife getting
the money back. He never charged
you S75 for a "trailcr" buggy that you
found out afterwards could be bought
anywhere for $50.
mo, the home merchant is just like
you. He lives where he does business
and his success depends on making a
friend Of you and your neighbor. Like
you, he has to make good.
The retail merchant is now the one
great factor in our commercial system
and this is true solely because he
renders us better service than we can
get elsewhere. Take him away and
our home town is gone; take our home
town away and we deprive our chill
dren of the retail store, which is the
greatest single educational factor in
modern life. No, it cannot be. The
retail merchant will continue to abide
in our affections so long as we value
our homes, because the average citi-
zen is proud of his town (he always
tells how close his farm is to it) and
he secretly despises the method of
peddlers and the peddler system is
now known to be the legitimate father
OF the whole catalogue house business.

and was well known young man but
never married and several years ago
he went to North Dakota and spent
two years proving up a claim. Dur
ing that time he lived in a sod cabin

tracted the disease which caused his
death. Since then he has Travelled
over the west and southwest in an
endeavor to gain back his health.
He was brought back to Danville on
Easter Sunday and has gradually
grown worse until death came.
Seven brothers and two sisters sur
yiye as follows: Richard and Will
liam, of Catlip; Thomas, Of Sidell;

Enlarged Homestead Act
LANDS TO COME UNDER THE
NEW LAW TO BE DESIG.
MATED SOON.

Under date OF April 10th, Senator
Guggchcin, Chairman OF the commit.
tee on the University OF the United
States, writes as follows:
On February 10, 1903. an Act was
approved giving to any person who is
qualified entryman under the home
stead laws OF the United States, the
right to enter, by legal subdivisions,
In the State OF Colorado, and other
western States and Territories, three
hundred and twenty acres, or less, Of
nGn-mineral, nUn-irrigablc, unreserved
and unapprOpriatcd, surveyed public
lands which do not contain merchant
able timber, located in reasonably
compact body, and not over one and
one half miles In extreme length;
Provided, That no lands shall be sub.
ject TO entry under the provisions OF
this Act until such lands shall have
been designated by the Secretary OF
the Interior as not being, in his upin-
ion, susceptible OF successful irriga-
tion at reasonable cost, from any
known source OF water supply. Any
homestead entryman OF lands OF the
character herein described, upon
which final proof has not been made,
shall have the right to enter public
lands, subject to the provisions OF
this Act, contiguous to his former en-
try, which shall not, together with the
original entry, exceed three hundred
and twenty acres, and residence upon
and cultivation OF the original entry
shall be deemed as residence upon and
cultivation OF the additional entry.
The usual homestead fees are reuuir.
ed, and no communication permitted.
There are large tracts Of land in
Colorado, which can be entered under
the provisions OF this Act, and have
taken up the matter with the Sccre-
tary OF the Interior on many occasions
with view to having him make the
designations at the earliest possible
day so that home. seekers in our State
may be able to avail themselves of It's
pio'isious NipIiouu utIhy. L lc s'tClt-
tary has informed me today that he
hopes to be able, within two weeks, to
make designations OF at least large
portion Of such lands, and is making
examinations, through the Geological
Survey and Reclamation Service, to
determine the character of all the
lands in the State, not heretofore cX-
amined, which would be kikely to
come within the non mineral and non
irrigable requirements Of the Act.
BY reason OF the increased settlement
Of lands, which may be expected in
view of the enlarged homestead Act
and because of the needs of the people
in our State, to have finally deter
mined the character of its land. its
irrigable possibilities, and its mineral
resources, the Geological Survey is
about to establish headquarters in
Denver with enlarged facilities for
investigation and research, and it is
hoped thereby that questions coming
before it may be greatly expedited.
1nasmuch as this will be of interest
to the people in your locality, l have
deemed IL proper to inform you of the
status of the matter.
Very truly yours,
S. GUGGENHEIM.
