The Worlds Newspapers.

Between $500 and 5000 d.lily
newspapers is the total given by
the San Francisco Chronicle for the
entire world, over 900 of them cred
tied to GERMANY. $50 to Great Bri-
tan, while Paris alone has 1850
more than London, New York,
and Philadelphia added together
Le-Petit Journal of Paris has the
largest circulation in the world but
the native dialect papers of India
are read by the most people because
they are circulated until completely
worn out. The Post Zeitung Of
Franklin, Germany is the oldest
newspaper in Europe, but in China
the King Pan is 1000 years old,
and the Using Palo, or PekinS News,
is the oldest newspaper in the world,
having come out regularly for near
ly 400 years. Its circulation is
about 10000 The extreme care
necessary in publishing this paper
is shown by a statement that until
recently at least, the punishment
for an error in the print was instsnt
death. What an awful slaughter
there would be in this country if
that were made the penalty here.

A young lawyer had become very

partee. The only obstacle in the
pathway of the young man was
his exceeding shyneSS, for, while
always in command of himself in
the courtroom, he became speechleSs
in the presence of his adored one.
AS one method of showing his de-
votion, it was his custom to shower
his inamorata with presents.

far from satisfied with the status of
the case, preached the subjects.

Serious Army Conditions

The Republican party has been
spending an average of over $685.
100000 year on the army of 49,
1872 men, and yet Inspector-General
Darlington in his annual report de-
clarer that present conditions are
the most fruitful source of profess
sional disease" In one department
nearly a third of the line officers
were absent from duty. One inspec-
tor points out a whole battalion of
artilly starting for the Philippine
service without single field officer,
and one of the batteries command
ed by a second lieutenant of less
than two years service.
This would seem to be a very
ASSHrious situation that may at anv
TIME lead to disaster That our
army is far below mediocrity in
marching capacity though we'll
trained in the use of the rifle, but
the men and the gun would be use
less unless they can be placed in
position in time to be of service -
is the oppion of Inspector-General
Bell.
The great trouble seems to be the
detail of officers to other than their
regular duties, such as to teach
military tactics at colleges and
schools. An army of $4,000 in
first class condition is all that is
necessary in these times of peace,
and with the Democrats controlling

are planning to take the party by
train to Palisade and there they will
be met by automobile and piloted

CONVENTION
IMPORTANT

The forthcoming state convention
of the Colorado Stockgrowers' asso-
citation in this city is of far more i'm
portance than many of the local peo-
pie seem to realize. Not only do the
leading cattlemen of the state attend
these conventions but the representa-
tives of the big packing houses of the
country and allied Industries are
present. From their impressions of
this city and vicinity may come great
things in the way of future industries
and it behooyes the people of this val
ley to get busy and work for the sue
cess of the convention with enthus-
iasm.
President w. A. Gillaspey of the
Colorado Stockgrowers' association
has issued a call for the convention
on July is and 10. The convention
is to be a business meeting and inn
portant matters of legislation will be
taken up. Bills will be prepared for
the new laws desired of the legisla-
ture and they will be adopted by the
convention in the form that it is de-
sired them to be enacted by the legis-
lature. Among the bills that will be
considered will be several to put the
Agricultural college in position to
carry on more extensive work in the
field. The farmers institute work
has done much practical good in the
state but the stockmen and farmers
desire experts in the different branch
es put in the field to consult with
the farmers and instruct them in the
best methods. OF course this will re-
quire a special appropriation from the
Legislature and as the Colorado Stock
growers association is the largest
agricultural organization in the state
it proposes to take the lead in the
matter.
Another important matter to be
considered is the increasing losses
from predatory wild animals. With
the decrease of game, the wolves, coy
otes and mountain lions are preying
upon the flocks and herds of the
state and the losses are becoming
burdensome. 1t is claimed that the
game of the state is being rapidly de-
pleted from this state and it is pro-
posed to try and secure a law that
will enable the fish and game de-
partment of the state to cooperate
with the organized stockmen to Sc
cure the destruction of the predatory
animals.
1t is expected that most of the
state Officers including the governor.
and practically all of the congress-
ional delegation in Washington, will
be present. and Grand Junction prom
