Another suIphurous We'll.

A shall station known TO fame as
Rene. midway between Benton and
Timpas seems to be- the center OF the
sulphur well section Of Otero county.
Last week we chronicled the fact OF
the discovery Of 4 sulphur well in
that section. and before that well WAS
a week old another one Was encoun-
tered on Max Riesener's farm. one
mile northeast OF Rene. This latest
well Is lao feet deep. and the water.
which Is unusually soft with just
enough sulphur 10 make a pleasant
drink, is within thirty feet OF the
top. There is such superabundance ce
Of water that 1t has been decided to
erect windmill over the well and
use the water for irrigation purposes.
In putting down this well the drill
lers went through fifty-three feet OF
solid soil without even encountering
a small pebble. which is surely some
depth OF soil. and Its quality Is at
tested by the fact that they have
had excellent crops this season from
dry farming. taking first prizes at
the Rocky Ford fair for potatoes and
corn.
J. T. Van Pelt, the driller. who
has charge OF Coleman's outfit, has
contracts for nine more wells in the
same neighborhood. There are be-
tween forty and fifty families In
the vicinity OF Rene. and II is hoped
to have rural route service in op'
Grafton In that section within ninety
days Mail for that section is now
sent TO Rocky Ford. II the county
commissioners could be prevailed
upon TO build first-class road out
OF La Junta. south and west. II would
naturally divert considerable trade In
this direction. Next year we may
have different breed Of county com
missioners. and things will be differ

Arkansas Valley at Pittsburs.

S. N. Hines. secretary of the Ar
kansas Valley Commercial Associa-
ton OF Colorado, wires the Tribune
from Pittsburg that 10000 people at
tended the opening OF the Pittsburg
Land Show Monday. Colorado's ex-
hibit occupies the entire front OF the
immense auditorium, the message says
and easily leads all displays, although
nearly every state in the union Is
represented. There is an electric
sign. Colorado" extending eighty
feet across the front OF the Centen-
NAL state exhibit, and there are TWEEN
ty-four counties in the state having
displays.
The immense Hearst 81 200 trophy

risation congress last month, stands
In the center. The Otero county ex-
hibit Is In class by itself, as 1t
was at the irrigation congress So
great was the crush OF people trying
TO get to the Otero county prize

were appointed to keep the throng
moving.
More than 10000 pieces of Colora-
do literature were distributed to the
visitors during the first afternoon and
evening. Fully 100000 booklets will
be handed out before the Land Show
closes. Fowler has a goodly supply
OF descriptive books there. telling the
easterners OF the advantages of the

Judge Essex sustained the demurrer

The title OF the suit was George

tion was asked for on the ground
that II would be impossible to com.

The contention OF the plaintiff was
that owing to the changing OF the

defense contended that the court did
not have jurisdiction and that the
allegations In the complaint were not
sufficient TO constitute Il cause OF
action.
Judge Essex declared that In his
opinion under the law there were two
mandates-one that the county clerk
should submit the wet and dry ques-
tion upon petition OF the voters OF
any political subdivision. and another
that the county commissioners should
change the precinct lines whenever
the vote exceeded 200. II the con

was clear that majority Of the
voters In Precinct No. 10 wanted TO
vote upon the question Of whether

did not think their rights should be
denied.

POLLOCK HEARS APPLICATION.
Owner of Hotels Recently Closed Pc.
titions For Their Reopeninq,

An application is being heard in the
district court before Judge Pollock for
the reopening of the North Star hotel
and the Bemidji house by the owner.
Mrs. Louise Borneen, who resides in
Grand Forks. 1t Is commended by the
the applicant that she purchased the
two hotels during the latter part of
1909 and was totally ignorant as to
the use to which they were put, as she
had never seen them nor the tenants.
In case the court grants the applica-
ton, which is still pending. both
places will be rented to parties who
intend to convert them into reputable
hotels. Both places were recently
closed by the court during the recent
injunction cases.
