An Old British Soldier.

There is in this country "Surviv-
or of the Charge of the Light Bri
gade." News comes from Oakland,
Cat, (Dec. 10y that George Smith is
one of the survivors of the Immortal
Six Hundred who rode in the charge
of the Light Brigade at the battle of
Balaklava. Smith is "a years of age
and is seeking charity from the Oak
land Board of Supervisors. He wants
sufficient funds to carry him and his
daughter to England in order that he
may revive his claim to a pension
from the British Government.
He was at one time a woodcutter,
but age and an old wound compelled
him 80 abandon work.
For bravery in the Indian Mutiny
he was awarded the Victoria Cross,
and received a personal gift of twenty
sovereigns from Queen Victoria.
After the Indian Mutiny Smith
came to America, later becoming a
citizen.

COMPANY
WON'T BUY BOYD LAKE,

As had been anticipated by B. D.
Sanborn. owner Of Boyd lake. the
stockholders of the Greeley-Love-
land company turned down the
proposition OF purchasing Q portion
Of the lake at the meeting which
was held in the coincff rooms II
the city hall last Saturday morning
and afternoon.
There were 1920 votes cast and
Of these 794 were against the propo-
sition with 426 for 1t. A great many
of the votes cast. particularly among
those who were opposed to the
proposition. were sent by proxy.
In view of the action which has
been taken by the Greeley-Loveland
company Mr.. Sanborn will now dis
pose Of the water to an eastern COM
pany which will carry the water
down into the east part Of the state
where 1t will bring no benefit what
ever to Greeley Of Weld county ~ It
would in the event that tho Gree
ley-Loveland company had made the
purchase Of the water.
The eastern firm will conclude
the transfer Of water at the earliest
moment. Mr.. Sanborn held the
proposition in the hope that the
Greeley-Loveland people would de-
eide on the purchase and hence keep
the water in this part Of the coun-
try.

SENATOR GREENMAN AND HIS
PLAY

The cheap pay OF Senator Elbert
Greenman for notoriety the other
day when he took 1t upon himself
to make absurd criticism OF Cover
nor Shafroth and some OF the re-
form measures. Is worthy and is OBJ
tanning only the most contemptuous
treatment at the hands OF the press
of the state generally. irrespective
of party fealty.
The Boulder county senator said
nothing which has not been said
much better before him and the en-
tire play can only be summed up as
cheap bid for press notice. And
Mr.. Greenman has been successful
in obtaining the desired result.
