Farmers Union People Of Ne
vada County:
Have you forgotten how your
State secretary two years ago
violated his obligation by trying
to deliver your vote to Donaghey;
No, we know you have not, for |
have heard some of you talk.
Now then, fellow by the name
of Rogers, who is a member of
the Executive Committee,is try
ing to do the same thing for
Estes for Commissioner of Mines
Manufacture Etc. by sending
out letters all over this state
written on Union stationery.
Now every Farmers Union man
in this state should consider that
an insult to the Institution. You
know that when you took The
obligation as a Union man that
there was nothing in it to inter
fere with your religious or Pc
litical belief, and when some
fellow begins to send out letters
on Union literature that is ground
for suspicion that he is trying to
use that as pull for his pet, and
he should be sat upon" good
and hard. And about the best
way to do it is vote right squar
against his man.

Land Sales Will Help
Keep up Bank Deposits.

While it is time that there is
money needed by farmers to carry
on work, there is still much doing
in land sales and other realty and
the local banks show large deposits,
both of time deposits and those sub
ject to check.
1t has been the case heretofore
that deposits show gradual de-
crease through spring and summer
seasons, when all is outgo on the
farms. The land investments in Del
ia county may, however, partially
offset this withdrawal of cash for
use during the crop growing period.
Land sale considerations in the
county are running from 100000
to s150,00O per week, as shown by
the deed records, and while perhaps
SO percent OF those considerations
are credit, it still leaves a handsome
balance to find its way into the
banks or into other channels of use.

thusiasasm kindled by it. will go
far 20 make sure the success OF the
project.
But in all reason why should
Delta not have sugar factory?
We are in the center of one of the
greatest beet fields in the West.
We are fifty miles from a factory
and are supplying that factory with
beets at the expense of home-a
fact that is enough to bring a blush
of shame to the face of every man
Who has a speck of local pride.
Producing the raw material by
the toll and sweat required to cul-
tivate thousands of acres of sugar
beets we merely get a nominal mark
ct price and deliberately, year after
year. stand and feed our beets to
the COW that Grand Junction milks.
We have the field for beet sugar
factory with every supply and re-
quirement in detail We grow the
beets of best quality. The manu-
facture of sugar has. by history
past and present proven, quickly
transformed comparatively poor men
into multimillionaires. The sup
ply is sufficiently below the de-
mand of consumption to prevent
more than mild Interference by
the trusts. Are our people fool

of so favorable a situation. or are

Plans have been accepted and money
subscribed with which to begin the
new $50, 900 church to be erected by
the First NJ. E. church organization of
Delta, which will occupy the site of
the present building at the corner of
Meeker and Fifth.
The old building as well as the old
parsonage will be torn down and the
entire Llot of ground cleaned and re-
modelled for the new buildings. The
present church edifice is of brick and it
will be torn down and the brick used in
the inner walls. The exterior will all
be built of Delta pressed brick, which
gives to our buildings so handsome an
appearance.
At the meeting held Wednesday
night the following building committee
was elected: A. R. King, w. B. Stock

-ofifcio chairman.
The new church edifice is patterned
after one formerly presided over by DR..
johnson, and a picture of which is
published on this page.
1t is sufficient for the present
to say that the new church will be
handsome in architecture and build
ing in which its congregation, as we'll as
the city. can feel justifiable pride.

Victory as politician says it re-

Don't be stuck up. People have
been proud of getting fat, and all
the time it was only dropsy.

those of the sunshine and those
of the shadow-and each are worth
while.
There is only one thing that could
reform Colorado's or any other
brand of politics. and that is big
lot of fussy funerals.

as all kinds of other people to make
