Grand Junction. Sept. 10.
To Mr., |. II. Whittemore,

Grand Junction, Sept. 10.
To Mr., |. II. Whittemore,
Fruita
My Dear Sir-A partial report of
your committee on right-of-way was
received by me this morning. and
note that further report is to fol-
low In reply to the questions which
you submit as having been asked
your committee. | take pleasure in
answering them.
First. Should no unforeseen delays
occur, we contemplate and expect
that in six months after work is be-
gun we can have the road in opera
tion: barring the unforeseen il would
be safe to say one year. Our right
of-way deed. however, upon advice
from our general counsel will contain
a two-year forfeiture clause.
Second. We will operate the road
to protect all possible traffic. II will
be understood by you that il is our
ambition to operate in such a way as
to properly care for all freight, ex-
press and passenger traffic. At this
time 1t is impossible for the operat-
ing department to give an exact
schedule on freight and passenger
trains, but ! can assure you that the
very best service consistent to good
operation will be maintained.
Third. We expect to fence all
right-of-way as a protective measure.
Fourth. If desired by abutting
owners, 1t might be possible in some
instances to make different arrange
ments. We will replace all irrigating
and waste bitches when disturbed by
us, making and maintaining proper
culverts, etc. In the matter of future
right-of-way for bitches or laterals
the same will be provided when de-
sired.
Fifth. We propose to keep our
right-of-way in an attractive condi-
ton, keeping down the weeds. main
tanning fences, etc. 1t is of funda-
mental importance that the line be
kept in an attractive condition to in
sure the results from local as well as
transit patronage II Will certainly
be the policy of the company to do
everything in its power to develop
the country through which its lines
pass.
Sixth. Most certainly
Seventh. Yes.
In closing | may say that some of
our construction material has now ar
rived in Grand Junction, and more is
on the way We are quite as anxious
to commence work as you are to have
us, and the only cause of delay is the
incomplete right-of-way When this
matter has been concluded by your
committee you will find us prepared
to 90 ahead.
Very truly yours.

He longed to find a country where II never

Where they had a touch OF springtlrneI in
Where the autumn days were pleasant,
where no dust was in the air
And the people were not plagued by any

He was searching for a climate where a

That there would not be, a snowfall IN

The Next Paramount.

Federal Judge VanDevanter of Wyoming,
Senator Warren's pet, and Munger issued
an injunction today preventing the. state
officials from enforcing the. bank guar
anty law. This means that it. will have to
take the usual route and time. to get a
decision from the United States supreme
court. BY that time another Legislature
will have come. and gone, YOU may say
d-n the federal court. but YOU could put
II out OF business 10 you wanted to, phe
only real need for such courts is to pro-
tect the corporations from the laws made
by the people. And yet a majority Of the
voters support the men who utilize such
public vehicles to prevent you from max
ing avs to regulate these creatures of the
laws you foohshly made years ago. Fake
your medicine and smile between cusses.-

If the Crete Democrat speaks as an
oracle, 1t is fair to presume that we
have here a coming paramount issue.
Put the federal courts out Of bust

ocratic slogan to take the place OF
Let the people rule" Just put the
federal courts out of business and all
u social ills will disappear before
the legislative cure-alls and political
psnsceas prescribed by d~iscredited nos
trum vendors. Put the federal courts
out of business and decide the consti'
nationality of all our laws by popular
vote, That ought to be a good issue
for the democrats to go before the
people on next time. ,t '

The Champlain Celebration.

The ter%centennial of the discovery
of Lake Champlain commemorated a
series of events momentous In the
worlds history. OF the four nations
and one vanishing race participating,
only the United States now has any
direct interest in the lake and its sur
rounding territory, yet the narrow
strip from New York to the outlet Of
Lake Champlain was for two cen
turtles the scene of battles which set
tied the destiny of a continent. None
of the battles was large in the sense
Of forces engaged, but they we're all
fierce and vital. The Indian was van
quishedi and is vanishing, the Dutch
and the French nationally have disap-
peared from the continent, and what
remains to Great Britain was wrested
from France. Almost in sight of the
lake was the turning point of the rev.
olution when Burgoyne laid down his
arms. Again in 1919 it was the thea
ter of struggle, but with that war
ended it's martial history,
Significant of the times was the
meeting on this dark and bloody
ground" of representatives OF the older
nations which figured in it's history
and the president of the United States
to pledge their governments to peace.
No reason is apparent. now at least,
why the United States should ever
again be involved in war with any OF
the others, and its 100000 people
sincerely hope the formal Fluctuations
Of the celebration shall be perpetual
realities for all.

Taft on the constitntion.

Two notable addresses concerning
the federal constitution we're made
Wednesday, one by President Taft and
the other by Attorney General Wick
ersham, whose %utterances may be
classed as corollary to that of his
chief. Each is a lawyer of high at
tainments and large experience, and
their views are based, therefore, on
the practical as well as the academic
phases of the constitutions capacity
for meeting existing and future condi-
tions. President Taft is not unmind-
full hat changing times have and
probably will continue TO demand re-
vision Of the constitution and new
applications Of present provisions. but
on the whole declares It the best basis
of government yet devised.
Mr.. Taft and Mr.. w%ickeruham point
out that expansion and development
of demands the enlarge.
ment of federal powers to meet con-
ditions which could not possibly have
bSoh lViSbStH Ny Ihe AOuhuShH VI Nh0
government, yet the president can see
no reason why state governments with
distinctive powers should ever be
abrogated. One point where federal
power can probably be extended, in
the opinion Of the attorney general,
is the chartering and control OF cor
porations engaged in interstate trade.
No human vision could have foreseen
the development Of business enter
prises Of such magnitude and COM
plexity as now exist. Change in prac-
tice, however. is not q change in prin-
ciple, which was that internal AFFAIRS
Of the state should be left to the state.
Developments have simply transferred
these questions to the wider national
field.
One point stands out clearly in the
presidents address and that is he real
ICES, as well as the pessimistic critics
governmental failures to reach the
highest ideals, but he is not without
hope because his vision is broader. He
sees the great things accomplished for
humanity under the constitution, sc
often lost sight of by. carping critics
who note only its failures, Further
more, Mr.. Taft attributes the failures
and shortcomings, not to limitations
or basic errors in the constitution
itself. but to mans inability to rise
equal to the opportunities afforded
him. This fault always has been ant
probably ever will inhere in every
government, no matter how formed
Neither democracy nor aristocracy are
infallible or gifted with perfect Insight
into the future, and any government
is barred by these human frailitie'
from attaining perfection.

VoIue of a Face.

The smiling face, Of President Taft may
not be his fortune but it is a great asset.
No one can look bHpon 1t without feeling
like smiling back, And it must be of
great help In the Interviews with office
seekers. Mr., Roosevelt. with his gritted
teeth and iron jaw, often used to send
applicants away in Unsurpassed fury. Mr..
Taft evidently knows how to temper the
negative with his big ~good-humor. To
look upon reflections of that face during
the next four years cannot fail to raise
by a few degrees the average cheerfulness
Of the nation.

Frankness.

II open confession is good for the
SOUL" the following, from the ORD
Journal, which boasts it's loyalty as
a partisan democratic organ, has, at
least. the merit Of frankness, which
other democratic mouthpieces lack:
A democratic legislature enacted the law
that provides for a nonpartisan judiciary.
It is thus upon democratic news
papers believing In the law to uphold the
principles Of the enactment by divorcing
politics from their support OF candidates
for judicial offices. Particularly is this
true with regard to the candidates for the
supreme bench. on the other land 1t Is
reasonable to expect that democratic news
papers will feel more acquainted with dem
ocratic judges and republicans feel more
kindly to candidates who have always al
lied themselves with that party. The Jour
nal means to be as nearly nonpartisan as
human frailties will permit In the matter
Of candidates for nonpolitical offices.
With this prelude the Journal COM
mits itself to two known democrats
for its preferred n~onpartisan candi-
dates for the supreme bench, evidently
being still undecided as to another
nonpartisan democrat to ill the third
place, perhaps because the tip has not
yet gone out from democratic head
quarters. In pr%oclaiming it's purpose
to be as nearly nonpartisan as human
frailties will permit in the matter of
candidates for nonpolitical Offices the
only thing the Journal forgot is to
put up the sign, mo republicans need
apply"

Napel Starts a Scare.

Secretary Nagel has caused a panic
among the employees of the Depart
ment of Commerce and Labor by the
announcement that "a days pay for a
days work" is to be the rule in his
ONCE. The secretary is a practical
man, who can see no good reason why
a man should not render the govern
ment adequate service. and everyone
except the clerks themselves is likely
to agree with the secretary. Clerk
ships In Washington have long been
looked upon as snug harbors. where
the maximum OF pay was to be had
for the minimum Of effort. If Score
tary Nagel can change this condition
he will have accomplished what many
others have set out to do but failed.
The secretary has a reputation for do
ing things and of being persistent, but
combating the inertia of Washington
life will be a test of his ability. De,
partmental methods are encountered
with red tape, much of 1t imposed by
law, but there is no logical reason
why the tape should not be wound
and unwound expeditiously. If bust
hess methods. with a reasonableg re-
turn in work for salaries paid, were
the rule in Washington, 1t would say,
millions of dollars annually as vel
as materially add to the efficiency Of
the government.
