DIFFICULT TIES.

One brave stop makes the next oaa
easier. True. the road seems more
piled up with obstacles as one goes
along; but, then. one is made strong

step, so that relatively we have an
easy road always before us. AT
least if not exactly easy il becomes
more interesting. One feels less in

A DEMOCRATIC MEETING

AT an informal meeting of the
Democrats of Delta county held
at Odd Fellows hall last Saturday
evening was discussed preliminary
matters of the coming campaign.
The date for holding the county
convention was talked over and it
was the opinion of those present
that September 7 would be about
the proper date. County Chairman
Seaton. who was present, an
nounced his intention OF calling a
meeting of the county committee
in the near future to definitely
settle this question, and to ap-
portion the delegates from each
precinct. A committee was ap-
pointed to arrange for a big ex-
cursion to Delta the day of the
convention. The county com
missioners at recent meeting re
districted the county, cutting very
large precincts into two voting
places. Under the new plan Pa
onia will have three voting places
instead of two as heretofore, be-
ing the Fifth. Eleventh and Fif-
teenth precincts. An additional
precinct for Hotchkiss was Gre
! ated. Maps are being prepared
showing the new precincts and
will be published soon. 1t was
the opinion of those who attended
the meeting that large conven-
ton was desirable and the county
committee Will be urged to make
the apportionment large to the
end that the convention will be a
representative one and as many
of the people as possible be given
an opportunity to take part in its
deliberations. Besides the local
Democrats who were present
number came up from Delta. The
meeting was harmonious and en-
thusiastic.

Fruit Canning School
Was Largely Attended

Mrs. Vera Holman, who has
spent the past week at the Miller
Mercantile company's store de
monstrating the many advantages
of the Economy fruit jars. has i'm
parted much useful information to
the ladies of Paonia and vicinity
and has shown them many new
ideas in fruit canning. That the
Economy jar is a long step for
ward and big improvement in
the science of preserving fruit was
conclusively proven, and the big
store was visited by numbers of
ladies each afternoon to attend
the school.

Trespasser in Orchard
Is Dangerously Shot

Bill Brakos, a Greek laborer on
the work train which has been at
work near Bowie the past week,
was shot and seriously injured
yesterday morning about IL
o'clock with a shot gun. 1t is al
legged that F. M. Sheffick did the
shooting and that Brakos was
traspassing in Sheffick's orchard,
the old Tom Mayes ranch near
Bowie. The freight train crew
found Brakos wandering along
the right of way in a dazed con
dition, and upon examination he
was found to have been puDct-
ured in many places with small
shot. He was brought to Paonia
and Drs. Hazelett and Bowie To-
Gated nearly a hundred shot in
his anatomy. He was sent to the
hospital at Salida this morning
for treatment, and unless blood
poison sets in he will recover.
Tom Paulos. who claims to have
been with the man Brakos when
he was shot. came in and applied
for warrant for F. NJ. Sheffick.
charging him with doing the shoot
ing. He claims that Sheffick shot
without warning. Brakos appears
to have been shot twice, as shot
entered his face, side of head and
back. Ranchers in that neigh
borhood have been worried con-
siderably of late, they say, be
cause of the laborers on the wor K
train stripping their orchards OF
fruit near the right ofway. Shelf
fick was visited by the conductor
of the freight shortly after the
shooting and denied any know
ledge of the affair. District At
torney Logan at Delta issued in-
struetions by telephone to At
torney Geo. o. Blake here to
draw up the information and have
Sheffick arrested. Deputy Sheriff
w. T. Bross went out to Bowie
this morning to bring Sheffick
before a magistrate for prelimi-
nary hearing.

Paonia, The Core Of the Apple Country

The board was intended to exist
only until the capitol building
was built and furnished, and
thousands of dollars could be
saved annually by now doing
away with this unnecessary and
not at all ornamental adjunct.
The Denver Republican says
that the supreme court ordered
the officials of Huerfano county
to submit their books to the pub
lie examiners because that county
returned respectable" Republi-
can majorities at the last election.
This should have been in the Joke
column instead of a first page
political story. as the idea of a
respectable" Republican major
ity in Huerfano county is really
laughable. Not caring to have
these majorities, respectable or
otherwise. placed in jeopardy,
Justice Gabbert relieved himself
of dissenting opinion, which
doubtless had soothing effect on
the Guggenheimers but made nc
change in the plans of the public
examiners.

would not conflict. The majority

An Estimable Young Man
Loses Life By Drowning

The sad accident which closed the
life OF Justin Anderson on last Satur-
day afternoon cast gloom over the
entire community. While in swim
ming with number of other young
men he became caught in the treach-
erous uLdercurrent of deep hole in
the North Fork and drowned before
his companions realized that he was
really in danger. Justin Anderson
was q years of age. and was highly
esteemed by both old and young for
his industrious habits, his moral
and upright life. He was a member
OF the Christian church. Rev. G. C.
Stearns conducted the funeral service
over his remains at the family home
on Stewart mesa and interment was
made In South Side cemetery. He
was the son of Mr.. and Mrs. S. A.
Anderson, and besides his parents he
leaves six sisters and one brother to
mourn his untimely death. They
have the deep sympathy of all who
know them.

The Irrigation Congress
Will Bring Settlers

Pueblo, Colo. July 1S.-The
value of the Eighteenth National
Irrigation congress as an educa-
tional feature is best expressed
by the fact that a number of alert
men, some engineers. some young
men from the east looking for op-
portunity and investment, some
connected with hnasoial rustitu-
tions and brokerage houses of
Chicago and further east. have
visited Colorado and the west
this year. have seen the great
work of development, have stud.
led the country. and have been
caught with the great work OF
preparation for the Irrigation
congress and exposition at Pu-
eblo September $3.50.
This has its value to the state
generally. and especially to COM
mercial and development organi-
cations and interests. The pride
of the Irrigation congress is tina,
it always leaves a state IN better
shape than when it entered it. AS
the Irrigation congress has
travelled all over the west, in the
two decades of its history, this
means that no state which has en-
tertained it has failed to find the
help and aid of its sustaining
hand.
A concrete example of this lies
in the fact that G. l.. Warson, re-
Gently manager of Irrigation Age,
foremost irrigatio and devel-
opment publication of Chicago,
who has spent the past four
months at Pueblo as his head
quarters in the interest of his pub
lication and practically seeing

the Eighteenth National Irriea.
ton congress, has now opened up
headquarters in Chicago on his
own accord, and will devote his
time from now on to colonization
work in Colarado and the Arkan-
sas valley. He will advertise
these districts, bring settlers to
know the resources of these sec
tions, convey reliable information
of all kinds. preach the integrity
of Western development and of
the men and methods therein,
circulate printed data, and, in
short, be an evangel for the Colo.
