Governor JOHN FRANKLIN FORT
ofNeWJersey


 Have just finished reading from the proof sheets Judge Lindsey's article now running in Everybody's on The Beast and The Jungle consider it the most terrific arraignment of the Systems and the Interests that has ever come from the pen of any man in America. 1t cant do other wise than produce good results. It will enlighten the people as to the evils which endanger our states and the nation. No one not in public life can fully realize the force of Judge Lindsey's facts. The con- ditions which he portrays in Denver and Colorado exist in many other cities and states in the union; probably they are not so lagrantly and openly Haunted as he de- picts them to be in his city and state; but the beast is everywhere in the civic jungle. His statements cannot do otherwise than result in an awakening of the people of the Republic to the real situation, and, when the awakening comes, mo man will have done more for his country, since Wendell Phillips fayed slavery, than he has done in writing this article. Every citizen should read it.

Inspector Apnninted

Charles Mason, the pioneer potato
grower, has been selected by the
farmers as the inspector and arbi-
traitor on the shipment of spuds from
the Greeley district The commission
men were more than pleased at the
selection and the officers of the po-
tato dealers association met this
morning and concluded all arrange
ments with Mr.. Mason with refer
ence to salary and the duties he is
to perform.
Mr.. Mason has grown old in
the potato industry and for years
his opinion has been considered au-
thority upon any question relating
to the tuber.
1t is now up to the commission men
to reject any and all potatoes that
are not up to standard. An excel
lent effort has been made to maintain
the reputation of the Greeley dis
trict and it will not be Mr. Mason's
fault IL the Greeley spuds do not
demand a premium before the ship
ping season is over

The mountain view and the long
stretch OF even surface on the west
hill make il an ideal residence loca-
tion. which was lost sight OF by the
many in their desire to follow the
Normal school to the south hill. The |
owners in this new addition |
will receive a ten-fold benefit COM

the property in the west end Will
more than double in value in the

Sell Water Bo.ds

II ID expected that hnAl nogOtiH'

project In Weld county will be CON-
pleted before long. according to
adyices from Denver. and that the
irrigation company soon will be In

Celle OF Chicago. dealers In bonds,
have been IN conference two days
with ID. A. Can.tield. and It Ia learned
that the basis on which the bonds
are to be handled has been detor-
mined within margin OF . few
cents. Another meeting OF the dit
rerent interests involved will be held
This afternoon. at which 1t 10 expect
ed that a definite deal will be con-
summated.
while irrigation bonds are in
creasing in favor In the east. It will
be some time yet before they will
contest seriously with the old-line se-
curities," said MIR. Farson last night
to press representatives. "The peo-
pie have to be educated up to them.
They are comparatively new a. an In
vestment and most people are wait
ing to see how the irrigation pro-
jects now under way pan out before
they invest in any OF the new bonds
being offered"
"Of course irrigation bonds pay q
higher rate OF interest than the old
line, conservative securities. added
Mr.. DeCelle. but the trouble Is that
Ii costs so much to sell the irriga-
ton bonds that the difference In the
interest rates is Offset to a large de-
gree. Where you can take an old
line security and sell II on a letter.
YOU have to hire men and send them
all around the country selling bonds
for these irrigation projects. What
is needed here in Colorado Is to edu-
cate the people who live here to in
vest in these bonds themselves. When
1t is known that the people right on
the ground are putting their money
into irrigation securities it will be
much easier for bond sellers to sell
these bonds in the east"
Mr.. Farson and Mr.. DeCelle called
on Governor John F. Shafroth yes
terday afternoon. in company with
F. B. Gibson Of Denver, and asked
him to consider the plan of invest

visitors that he would look into the
matter and call 1t to the attention
