Some months ago when Judge
W. H. Kelley sold the county
pauper farm a number of people
pronounced the move a bad one
and feared it would cost q great
deal more money to support the
paupers after the sale of the
farm. This theory was exploded
Saturday when the paupers were
let for next year for less money
than they were being kept for
when the county maintained the
farm.

STILL BOOSTING SANTA FE.
Avery Turner Has Not Missed Days
Service in SO Years.

Pueblo, Colo, July 22.-Pueblo and
headquarters for the eighteenth Ma
tional Irrigation congress, Pueblo, Sep
TENDER $3.50, enjoyed a visit this week
from a man who has been prominent
in the pioneer life and development of
three states, is still active in spite of
advancing years, promises to assist
Texas in bringing the largest delega-
ton to Pueblo next fall" and who laid
the first Santa Fe rails into this town,
now SO important point on that sys-
tenn.
This pioneer is Avery Turner of
Amarillo, Texas. He is vice president
of the Santa Fe lines in the state of
Texas, and was formerly general man
ager. The laws of the state of Texas
require that all roads through it main
tain separate offices and officers, and
the Santa Fe is one of the most impor-
tant roads passing through the great
empire state of the southwest.
Mr.. Turner is particularly interest
ing as a pioneer figure in Pueblo. On
March IL, 1876, he laid the first rails
of the Santa Fe into this city. 1t WASH t
much of a town then-just a sort of
frontier post. Mr. Turner was fore
man of materials. had charge of track
laying, had formerly run construction
trains further down the Arkansas val
ley and on the main line. later became
yardmaster, trainmaster, division SUI
perintendent. and then on up to the
higher positions. He says with pride
that he has not missed a day from
Santa Fe service in more than thirty
six wears.
