THE DIVIDE CREEK CASE

David Givens of Denver, late of Di-
vide creek, stopped over in Glenwood
this week while on his way to Denver
where he will spend the winter. He
was attending to some business here
IN connection with his unfortunate lit
igation with F. L. Adams, a renter on
the Depler ranch on Divide creek.
The experience of these two liti-
gants Is peculiar for while each is but
slightly known in this county they have
aired their trivial misunderstanding
In three different courts in three diff
ferent towns in Garfield county and,
as If this were not enough, Givens has
served term in the county jail while
Adams is now under bonds to keep the
peace and is also defendant in a dam
age suit for false Imprisonment which
Givens has brought against him.
This ugly case resulted from a let
ter sent by Givens to the local humane
officer, William Griffith of New Castle,
May 26, in which Givens complained
of Adams treatment of his wife which
was said to be cruel and inhumane.
Griffith warned Adams by registered
letter that such treatment must cease.
Then Adams begun action against
Givens for criminal libel and because
Givens refused to give bonds for his
appearance in the district court he
was placed in the county Jail where he
remained 25 days. He then gave bonds
and was released, but was Immediately
arrested at the instance of Adams
charged with carrying concealed weap-
ons. Before this case came to trial
and while Givens was securing his
witnesses the case was dismissed by
Justice White at Adams request.
Then Givens went to Rifle and begun
action in Justice Cochran's court to
place Adams under peace bonds. To
this Adams confessed and gave bonds
for $500 to keep the peace and report
to the district judge at every session
Of the court for one year.
Given has also brought suit for
damages in the sum of $1,000 for false
swearing against him and for false im-
prisonment, and he asks for body judg
ment, costs and attorneys fees.
When first arrested Givens took the
case to the governor at whose suggestion
the humane society sent special Off
Ger, w. R. Callicotte, to Divide creek
to make investigation and report. Up
on this report Governor Shafroth
stated that he was satisfied that Civ
ems was illegally held and should be dis
charged, but by this time politics had
crept in and at the suggestion of some
local democrats the governor said later
that he had determined to leave the
matter with the local authorities and
he therefore ignored Callicotte's report
and declined to issue a pardon.
Givens says he can never sufficiently
thank his friends on Divide creek who
stood by him so Loyalty and says he
never had better treatment in his life
than was accorded him by the most
of the Divide creek ranchers.
But the matter is yet to be fought
out in the courts and already heavy ex-
penses have been incurred on both
sides and when the case is finally set
tied the Post would like to know who
is the gamer. This seems to be very
foolish case in which each of the par
ties takes himself altogether too seri-
ously.

TEACHERS EMPLOYED
IN GLENW00D SCHOOLS

The Garfield county high school
board and the board of District No. ]
have now finished the selection of y
corps of teachers and the following
are the selections made:
H. P. Shepherd, Superintendent Of
High school.
Elladee Allen, Principal High school
H. E. Huber, Science.
Thomas F. Crull Mathematics.
Olive Altman, Music and Art.
Blanche Mahoney sth grade.
Margaret Mahonsy, 7th grade.
Elizabeth Tully, 9th grade.
Mary Drach, 5th grade.
Margaret Lacy Smith, 4th grade.
Eva E. Tuttle, 3rd grade.
Ethel Wyant, End grade.
Helen M. Fleming, 1st grade.
These selections have been made, es-
pecially as to Mr.. Crull and Mrs. Smith
after very careful examinations of ali
applications by Superintendent Shep-
herd and Principal Allen as well as by
the boards made responsible for this
duty. The teachers heretofore employ
ed are well known and their ability is
unquestioned but great deal of
thought and care was given to the en-
ployment of the new teachers and it is
a high compliment to Mr.. Crull and
Mrs. Smith to say that they have been
selected from among great many ap-
plicants who come very highly recon-
mended and they were chosen because
the boards believe that they are better
equipped than any other applicants for
the particular work they will be call
ed upon to perform.
Mr.. Crull lives at Seward, Illinois
and graduated from the Pecatonica
high school and from Wheaton college
at Wheaton, Illinois. Although a
young man he has had considerable ex-
perience in teaching and last year was
principal of high school and was re-
elected to the same position for the
coming year. He is said to be strong
in mathematics and is enthusiastic con-
corning athletics which will come un-
der his charge in the Glenwood schools
Mrs. Smith who lives at Longmont,
Colorado is a graduate of the state
normal school at Greeley and has com
pleted the domestic science and man
ual training course. She comes very
highly recommended for the work for
which she has been chosen as it 's
probable that in addition to the fourth
grade work she will be asked to give
some instruction in domestic science in
all of the grades.
Mr.. Shepherd and Miss Altman have
been employed with the understanding
between the two boards that they shall
devote their time, one-half to the coun-
ty high school and the other half to
the grades. This seems to be a very
wise arrangement and it is thought
that in this way the best results can
be attained at minimum of expense.
School WILL open September 5.

THE THIlQKR1S

w. S. Bohann.-I believe in the
farm-the only sphere of activity in
which a man is in direct cooperation
with nature. I believe that work is a
privilege and worry is a crime.
Judge Ben B. Lindsey.-Too many
people repent the wrong way. Now the
prodigal son repentei properly. He
came and stood long way off. He
waited in all humility till his father
saw him and ran and threw his arms
about his neck and kissed him. But too
many prodigals nowadays swagger
right into the parlor, throw themselves
into the easiest chair. put their feet up
on the piano stool and growl: "say,
hurry along the veal"
Jimmy Hicks.-When I broke into
the newspaper business l wanted to
write what the profession call stories
that form of newspaper expression
which the general public refers to as
articles. But the manager put me to
work writing paragraphs, and despite
the fact that my fielding average is
never more than 9.1O, have been
writing paragraphs most Of the time
since. / shall always believe that had
the manager of the team allowed me to
display my bent for long articles, I
would have become one of the worlds
leading writers.
J. T. Ferguson.-Th whole sensa-
tion on the subject of higher prices
for farm products is ridiculous and the
stock explanations of the increases are
simply imbecile. Henceforth unless all
visible signs go astray, the prices for
foods will rule higher and higher Popu
lation in this country will increase
greatly and in few years more we
shall have no large surplus in any i'm.
portant line of foods and feeds. Then
the farmers will get prices that will
enable them to intensity the tillage and
while forcing better quality. Our vast
area of tillable soil will be fully cc-
cupied and employed. Great farms will
break up into smaller ones. Each acre
will he made to yield more. Scientific
agriculture will be established every
where and the farmers will own the
world and feed the human family.
Joseph f. Chamberlain.-In the west
where I have been for more than six
weeks the personal introduction is
mere thrill of human intercourse. A
mans acquaintance is as wide as he
wants it to be. If you wish to know
man you speak to him-if he does
not speak to you first, which probably
he will do. Friendships come quickly
and easily. Sometimes enmities come
just as easily. The soil is fruitful Of
impressions. Though all men there are
distinctly masculine in actions, they
are feminine in their intuitions and
their sympathies. Everything goes at
rapid rate. You are praised or damn
ed on an impulse. But anyhow you are
not ignored. The same propaganda are
carried on in the east as in the west
spring up over night. Political ideas
are like the gourd, the seed of which
but the west is the ground where seeds
a man planted in Colorado one morn
ing and the irrigated vine sprang up
and chased him as he made of and
twined up his leg and dropped full
grown gourd in his pocket before he
had gotten Of tie field.

HOW THE CORRESPONDENTS EX-
PLAIN 1T.

PLAIN 1T.
According to the associated press
story this morning Theodore Roose-
welt confded to its correspondent at
Oyster Bay last week that he was
mad with Will Taft cause Vice
President Sherman had been appoint
ed temporary chairman of the Re-
publican state convention in New
York; and Will Taft confided to its
at Beverly, Mass, last
week tina. "the fight was on" They
have thought better, of their determ-
nation, however, and Theodore con-
fded TO the associated press cores
pondent at Oyster Bay that Will Taft
has 'splained and he is real glad and
il is all right again.
That is silly, of course; but it Is
the only possible conclusion from the
statement OF the associated press
that President Taft and ex-Presi-
dent Roosevelt are again fellow work
ers in the same political field. The
threat that they might pull apart has
been forefended by a full explana-
ton on one side and an unreserved
acceptance on the other"
This assertion that Taft made pub
lie a letter to convince Roosevelt
saves the associated press cores
pondents from the embarrassment OF
admitting they were doing some very
wild guessing, although. it is plain,
that II Roosevelt has any sense he
would not get mad with" anybody
without cause and then. after q
weeks exploitation of his anger In
the newspapers. make up again.
The publication of the letter, OBJ
lviously. is to convince the Republican
lvoters of New York that the presi
dent and Roosevelt are in harmon,
and opposed to the state machine. no
to convince Roosevelt. who alread.

We can understand how In thu
heat and the summer dullness thu
correspondents should go wild owe
some tale poured into their ears b,
emssaries of New York machine pol
iticians: but how the men on the
desks could "play up" the stories OF

to understand.

NICARAGUA.

OF course. we can never know at
this distance what somebody at Ber-
lin had in mind, when the German
emperor was prompted to recognize
Madriz as president OF Nicaragua;
but. as we predicted at the time, his
presumption is parent of his own
modification, now, that Madriz him

Estrada as president.
Some of our own critics OF the
secretary of state, too, may recall
some of the things they said, anent
his "bungling" diplomacy IN Central
America, when he had destroyed
American prestige, and Zelaya had

Now. since Roosevelt has thor
oughly explained that the stories of
his break with the president were
all lies. the same correspondents are
naming followers of Joe Cannon
whom the president has picked out
for speaker OF the house. They will
play that up until they are proven
TO be lying again. BY that time they
will have another lie well on the
wing. The president has nothing to
do with selecting the speaker of the
house, and If he intended to dictate
the man, he probably would not
confide his choice to the newspaper
correspondents before the congress is
elected. Some OF those police re-
porters at Washington ought TO be
put back on the districts, where
something really exciting happens
once in a while.

London, Aug. 23.-The practical
humiliation of the scourge of con-
sumption was prophesied by Sir
Lauder Brunton at the annual con-
gress of the Royal Institution of
Public Health, which met recently
at Birkenhead.
The great physician, speaking as
president of the preventice medicine
and vital statistics section, said:
"Koch's discovery of the tubercu-
losis bacillus has enabled us to COM
bat with considerable success the
white plague-consumption, that
