in few minutes with preparations
containing morphine, opium, chloro-

stop the cough and cause sleep quick

and constipate, leaving oftimes a far
worse trouble. Rydale's Cough Elixir

Was Col. Wood Married
at Salt Lake Encompment9

We received the following from Salt
Lake which will be of interest to our
readers in Delta County:
lone of the esteemed veterans of
Delta County. Colorado took occasion
to get married while on his recent trip
to the Encampment. There has been
good deal said about Col. Harrison
Wood since he came to Salt Lake but
it was not generally known until yes
terday that he had really been married
on the trip. The exact details cannot
be obtained but it is known that his
bride was a very heavy and prominent
lady in this city. and it is not positively
known whether he was married in the
Temple or not. He took a wedding
trip to Saltair bathing resort and there
was much comment made by the Colo
RADIO delegation. 1t is presumed that
he will take his bride back to Colorado
with him but he he has not been seen
by any of his comrades for the past
two days. NORTH Fork Times.

Church Quarrel at Olathe.

Olathe, Colo, Aug. 25.-An interne-
cine war between the Christian Union
and the Methodist Episcopal churches
has been declared in this city. Today
in the county court a suit was filed by
the Christian church to prevent the
Methodist church from using the build
ing which it is alleged, was rented to
the Methodists. The trouble came
from factional fights in both churches,
several members of the board of trus-
tees of the Christian church taking it
upon themselves to rent their church
building to the Methodists. However,
they did not possess the key, and a men,
ber of the insurgents did, and refused
to give it over. The Methodists were
advised to cut the old lock and put in a
new one, so as to have key of their
own. This they did, but were restrain
ed to-day by writ of the court pre-
venting the use of the church until the
matter was settled.
1t appeared that the majority of the
Christian trustees had not approved of
the renting of the building, and the
matter will be brought up for settle
ment in few days. There is a great
deal of feeling among the members of
the churches, all of whom are promi-
nent in this locality. Grand Junction

rumors of disgraceful conduct on the

nearby saloons after the fiddle was ST.

gray dawn when they were dumped into

and taken to their rooms. The Post
has not yet been able to verify by eye
witnesses the reports as to the saloon
incidents; but as to the disgraceful
street conduct we have evidence in
plenty which ought to forever condemn
the city officials who permitted it.
There were rumors the next day that
several arrests were to be made, but
up to the present time nothing has
been done in that line. Query: Why

Never Time Like the Present for All Hands
to Work for Factory Which Would Give
Employment, Boom Real Estate and
Help Every Line Of Business.
slJGAR MEN COMING NEXT WEEK TO INVESTIGATE

The sugar factory movement. as out
lined in the INDEPENDENT last week Is
making well defined progress
We-mean by this that the subject OF
a sugar factory at Delta has been
broachedito builders by Delta citizens
in way that means business, and a
decision demanded.
The proposition, we understand Is
now in the hands Of both the Western
Land and Sugar company Of Grand
Junction and the Trust, to either OF
whom indications point as desirous OF
securing the field.
of the two it would appear that the
Western Land and Sugar company have
the inside track. they being already in
the field as...growers and. contractors
for the beets now grown.
The INDEPENDENT is informed that
one or the other will likely build sugar
factory here and presumably in time
for the 1910 crop; that representatives
of the one corporation will be here next
week to look further into the matter
and confer with our citizens and Busi-
ness Mems Association regarding the
object of their visit; that they will then
decide to act or.tget out Of the way OF
other plans for securing factory.
This is in itself an important item.
We believe the Western Land and
Sugar company want this field and will
build a factory at Delta in order to
retain it. unless they are actually dis
couraged in the undertaking. and the
matter is of so great Importance to
Delta and its surrounding country that
every citizen and property owner should
feel in a mood to encourage 1t, even to
the extent of extending helping hand
or making reasonable sacrifices. If
need be.
In all ways .Delta's chances are now
better. ten to one. for landing beet
sugar factory THANH they have ever
been. The time is here and we can
have the factory or it will be some
ones fault aside .:from the merits Of
location or thelwillingness of capital to
enter the field.
Complete statistics of the beet sugar
manufacturing industry of the United
States will be found on page of this
issue.

Do You Want Helpo

If those in the country who want help

of help they want, free of charge
A good many are beginning to come in
looking for work and several have
called at this Office asking for directions.
They were drawn here by the reported
need of help to gather the fruit and do
other farm work, and without knowing
who wants help, we have no means of
directing them, which we would be glad
to do. So make your wants in this line

Taft 10 Urge Postal
Savings Banks on Congress.

Beverly. Aug. 5.-Taft indicated in
talks to callers today that in his mes
sage to congress in December he will
strongly urge an early establishment
of postal savings bank system. He
will ask that the Republican platform
declaration favoring them be fulfilled
as speedily as possible.
Taft believes tnat several hundred
millions would be placed at the govern
ment's disposal through postal savings
banks. BY placing the interest at less
than two per cent, Taft believes there
would be no harm done to ordinary
commercial banks.

Power May Be Utilized.

1t is now strongly limited that the
power which.could be generated by the
water which will flow through the five
miles length of the Gunnson tunnel
may be leased to some company to be
transmitted for different uses, and
some of the Slope newspapers are
urging that franchises be granted by
pany; that such an arrangement would
bring in money and help to lessen the
cost of water used by the land owners
and water consumers.
There appears something to the idea
to start with, provided there should
prove to be any available amount of
power going to waste. and it is possi-
BILE it could be made factor in de.
velopment as well as the water in
irrigating land to production. The
matter of advisability of ofgranting fran
chises, however, is one which should
be considered and well understood, as
doubtless it will be, before it comes
finally up for action should it ever
come up.
Regarding the main idea. this section
has ample water power for all pur-
poses enough to supply the entire
Western Slope for all time, If it were
only harnessed. and the great surprise
is that 1t has not been. The Gunnison
river, above or through its Black Canon.
