Eagle

The glorious 4th is gone, and so many
various entertaining features were
made for the people of Eagle that it
is worthy of mention.
Red Cliff celebrated in the usual way,
ball games, tug of war, racing contests
Of various kinds and a grand ball in
the evening. People went from Gypsum
Eagle, Wolcott, Avon and Minturn.
There were between 80 and 40 tickets
sold at Eagle. The event which took
the Eagleites was the bah game be
tween Red Cliff and Eagle which was
undoubtedly a good game and resulted
in a victory for Red Cliff, the score
being to 5 and the majority will
stand by the writer when they say it
was an unfair game from the begin
ming, on the part of the umpire, Harry
Cook and we are free to state that his
decisions were of the rankest kind.
Manager Track called his men in and
asked for new umpire which was fin
ally agreed on. but to still retain Mr.
Cook as umpire of bases, which of
course was still bad for his feeling were
evidently shaken up and he then decid
ed nothing for the Eagle lads, but we
are here to say that Eagle and the very
best people of Red Cliff are unanimous
In saying that the Eagle boys won II
fair and deserved the game. Umpire
Kelley for balls was gentleman and
falr and manly in his decisions and
Hemberger !" the bully' couldn' It make
hm change his decisions in anv par
Ocular We wish to thank Mr.. Kelley
for his honest decisions but the man
COOK 'on bases' had us and although
the boys played hard they never could
win IN any game with a man like Cook
VINO didn't know the first principle of
ball playing Eagle is ready to play
them again at any time for any amount
of money-but without the helm of
Mr.. Cook.

The principal business of the town
council Tuesday evening was the dis
cussion of the ordinance granting a
franchise to the Farmers Telephone
company. C. W. Darrow represented a
number of petitioners from among the
business men of Glenwood who object
to the inconvenience of two phones and
also the unsightliness of another set
of wire and poles. These petitioners
asked that the franchise be not grant
ed and that committee be appointed
to see if two companies could not get
together on mutual agreement to use
one system. The council did not ap
point the committee but held the ordi-
nance in allegiance for the present

JEAN sMELCER MANSFIELD

The death of Mrs. Jean Mansfield
came as direct shock to her many
friends in and near Glenwood, few of
whom had known of her illness until
apprised of her death which occurred
last Saturday afternoon from general
peritonitis.
Mrs. Mansfield was quite we'll known
in Glenwood having lived here with her
parents several years ago. Later the
family moved to Durango and still lat
er to Fort Collins. Deceased was a
young woman of splendid qualities. her
charming personality endearing her to
those who came in contact with her
and thus it was that her death caused
unusual sadness to those who had been
privileged to know Mrs. Mansfield in
her lifetime.
Among those surviving are the hus-
band, D. W. Mansfield and the little
daughter, Janice, the parents, Mr.. an i
Mrs. John W. Smelcer, two sisters and
brother.
The funeral was held Monday fore
noon from the residence on Ninth
street, Rev. John Morrison Dickey Of
the Methodist church ohieiatins. In.
terment was ID Rosebud.

SENATOR GORE
AN ADVERTISER

CONTINUED from page one)
their innocence, especially as they had
never been accused.
The manner in which Senator Gore
acted, after he had developed first
class sensation. led to the suspicion
that the Oklahoma senator was looking
for advertisement, and was just clever
enough to get it. Prior to this Incl
dent he was not particularly well known
and was not calculated to prove an
exceptional drawing card on the lee
ture circuit. Gore, the man who un-
covered gigantic Indian frauds, the
man who spurned bribe of $4,000
just to refuse to support certain bill
and Gore, the man who branded as
grafters members of congress and .x-
members of the Senate, would be a
great attraction, especially while the
recollection of the incidents recited
were still fresh in the public mind.
Possibly it will develop that Senator
Gore was acting in good faith when he
sprang his sensation; it may be that
he was trying to lay bare the crooked
transactions of men of influence and
position, but if that was his main sim,
his actions since his speech fail to give
him credit for such lofty purpose and,
unfortunately for him, have created a
general impression that Gore was look
ing for timely advertising.

WATER THROUGH
Big TUNNEL

tion. This ruling led to some friction
and delay. The principal cause of de-
lay was difference of opinion be-
tween the government and the owners
of the private bitches as to the value Of
the properties.
In every instance the ditch companies
held their properties at much higher
figure than the government thought
they were worth. Patient negotiations
and spirit of compromise on the part
of both parties, have smoothed away
most of the mooted points, and now it
will be but a matter of short time
until the great tunnel is furnishing its
life giving flow to one great family Of
united water users.
Water Users in Session
The completed Gunnison tunnel pro-
iect will water 100000 acres of the
richest farming and fruit land in the
West. For the past twenty years some
of this land had produced record crops
of apples, peaches. small fruits, pota-
toes, alfalfa and grain. Recently the
sugar beet has been planted with re-
markable success and within two years
after the full acreag. is in cultivation
under the project, the valley will have
two or more beet sugar factories.
Great Orchards Planted
During the past twelve months over
100000 apple trees alon,, to say moth
ng of thousands of other varieties of
fruit trees, have be.,u planted in the
ra,iev. This fruit district has record
IF twenty-one full crops in twenty two
years, without smn1s;ae. and when the
fll! acreage of iri.t in the valley is in
herring this will be one of the greatest
~ mnst prot,tabs fruit sections of
the West.
During the six years that the tunnel
creased from $500 to 5000 in popula
tion, and the growth has only begun.
The valley surrounding the city has
also doubled in population and when
the water is ready for all of the land
the present population of the farms
will be again doubled, or more.
The few here who were among those
who first conceived the idea of boring
the tunnel find much cause for con
graduation when they review the early
years of Encouragement, of despair,
that beset the land owners here. To
have the rich land and an ideal eli
mate and yet see their crops burned
up year by year for lack of water dis
couraged all but few of the most IN
domitable. These stayed on, and now
they see an empire smiling fair where
before only a desert scowled.

Proposed Forest Fire Legislation.

A bill just introduced in the State
Legislature by Senator Biddison makes
some needed changes in the present
forest fire laws that should prove very
beneficial. 1t is along the lines of leg,
islation in other states which are in ad-
vance of us in this important matter,
and where such legislation has brought
very satisfactory results. The propos-
ed law divides the expense of extin.
gushing forest fires equally between
the County and the State. Under the
present law the County has to pay the
entire expense of extinguishing forest
fires, and then has power to collect the
costs from the landowners on whose &C.
count the money was expended. This
means that the landowner who suffers
most from forest fires must not only
sustain the loss, but pay the largest
share of the expense of putting out the
fire for which he is probably in no way
responsible.
The forest fire question is an impor-
tant one. Timber is becoming too
valuable to permit fires to injure the
forests year after year without attempt
ing to suppress them and give the
young growth a chance to develop,
in order to furnish timber for the next
generation.
This bill in addition gives the forest
wardens the power to arrest in case of
detected violation of the forest laws,
and also gives them the power to sum-
mon help is extinguish forest fires.
The bill should have the support of all
woodland owners

nit her to remain until the 18th of
April, being the close of the present

the Board, that said order be modified
as requested and that she be permitted
to remain until the 18th of April, 1910;
and it is further ordered, that Miss
Bertha A. Butler be and she is hereby
appointed assistant teacher in said
school subject to the certificate of the
County Superintendent to take effect
April Is, 1910.
Ordered, That the colored schools be
closed on April 18th, the end of the
present term, said schools having been
opened the middle of September last.

Women Not to Vote.

The Woman's Suffrage Bill of Balti-
more City received death blow Tues
day afternoon, closely following its
favorable report by the Committee on
Elections. During the course of an ad-
dress against the bill by Mr.. Benson
Kisses from the gallery in the rear of
Speaker Peoples were audible. The
Kisses were directed against Mr.. Benson,
who was attaching the bill, and it is
believed in some quarters that that &C
ton, at least, caused such big vote to
be rolled up against it.
The motion which killed the bill was
make by Mr.. Benson. who moved that
the favorable report of the committee
by indefinitely postponed. 1t was car
ried by vote of 81 to "a. Mr.. Benson
made his motion prior to taking the
floor against the measure.
AS soon as the bill had been reported
favorably, Mr.. Carr took the floor and
briefly recounted the hearings held in
behalf of the measure, the effect of
which was to convince the members of
the committee that the measure is a
wise one and deserving of success. He
YVES himself convert to the idea that
women are capable of exercising the
franchise and that they would not be
guided by sentiment rather than by
logic.
Mr.. Cummings paid high tribute to
the women who stay at home, and as
serted that the proper way for women
to obtain representation, if they want
it, is to train their children to be good
citizens and intelligent voters.

Maryland's Fast Disappearing
Timber Supply.

There are 100000 acres of wood
land in the State from which was cut
in 1908 nearly $5,000,0 900 worth of
material. The principal cut was lumber
amounting to 225, 900, 900 board feet,
but included also immense quantities Of
piling, mine props, cordwood, poles,
railroad ties, pulpwood, laths and
shingles This took more than three
times the growth of the forests for
that year and points to but one thing,
that we are using our forests much
faster they are growing, a condition
that cannot long continue for we will
soon use up all of our capital. We use
six times as much wood per capital as
Germany, nine times as much as
France, and sixteen times as much as
Great Britain. The same follies that
these counties practiced toward their
forests before forest preservation be-
came a public necessity we are practic-
ing now, and like them we are destined
to suffer similar calamities, unless we
can be taught to profit by their exper-
fences. One thing is certain, that
when our own supplies are exhausted
we cannot depend upon other countries
to come to our rescue for none of them
have timber to spare. Its intensity
and duration will depend upon the at,
titude we now take in regard to this
forest question.
