A ISLANDER ON WOMEN

The usual sensational statement in
connection with DIR. Crippen's impri-
sonment is made through the daily
press that "his cell is being filed with
books and flowers from Women"
DIR. Crippen is charged with mur
dering his own wife and clipping with
his stenographer.
That there might be in his case, as
there has been in many cases of other
notorious criminals, silly females along
with lot of depraved ones, who in
dulge such sentimentality, but they
are not real women, and it is not fair
to place the stigma and slander against
the name we revere. When you catch
a woman pinning boquets on the lapel
of a murderer or other desperate felou,
you can make up your mind that she
IS either batty, or one who has fallen
from womanhood. The ones that men
esteem as mothers, wives and sisters,
don It even dream of such things.

BooTLEaaER GETS GIN BAD

Yesterday morning in police court
Fl. H. Hartsell was found guilty of
bootlegging whiskey, and was SEN
fenced to ninety days in the county
Jail. Hartsell, who is an employe in
cheap local restaurant, gave him
self away when he told his side of
the story. He is one of the men who
have been under surveillance by the
police and the officers deserve great
credit for the manner in which they
have run down and captured more
than half dozen bootleggers in the
past seven months.
It seems that Hartsell was given
four bottles of whiskey for sending
customers to bootlegger he knew
and with whom he was practically a
partner in crime. A young man
known to the police is also implicated
in deal and it is only matter OF
few days until he will be landed
behind the bars, where he justly be-
longs. unless he quits his low, nefa-
rious business. Hartsell was going
to give away the two bottles found IN
his possession when Burdette Welca,
chief of police gathered him into the
toll. This is looked upon by the police
as far from likely story, when booze
is worth a dollar per pint.
The city authorities are determined
to stamp out the bootlegging and ev-
cry man caught will be given the ah-
solute limit, without mercy or favor.
The police have been wonderfully Wig
liant and have several suspects under
constant watch, and before snow flies
all of the pestiferous parasites will
be grimly entangled with the meshes
Of the law.-Grand Junction News.

George Yu|e, Prominent Ranchmen and
Banker, Long Identified With Garfield
County's Interests Passes Away I
IMPRESSIVE G. A. R. FUNERAL

home he started overland for Omaha
and there joined train for Denver,
arriving in the little hamlet on the
banks of Cherry creek December 2 of
that year after experiencing consider
able difficulty along the way with hos
tile Indians who made several unsuc-
icessful attempts to steal his cattle.
With his brother, William, he own
ed claim or ranch where North Den
yer now stands. In 1870 he sold his
interests there and moved to Gunnison
county where he served two years as
county sheriff. He came to Garfield
county in 1881 and became associated
with his brother. Joe and with John
Murray in what was for many years
the Murray Yule Cattle company. He
settled on what is now known as Gar
field creek which Mr.. Yule named, him
self in honor of the martyred presi-
dent, James A. Garfield.
Here he engaged in farming and
stock raising, building up one of the
best ranches in Garfield county which
he disposed of to Peers Coulter about
three years ago. He was married jan
|uary Is, 1896 to Miss Lizzie A. Nc
Burney of New Castle. Mr.. and Mrs
Yule moved to Glenwood about two
years ago.
Mr.. Yule has been prominent in Gar
field county in business and political
way and few, if any, men in this coun-
ty We're better known throughout the
county and state He has led very
active life and has always prospered.
At the time of his death he was
director in the Citizens National bank
of this city and was one of the heavy
of that institution.
A man. kind, thoughtful and con-
siderate of all with whom he came in
contact, stunning strife and ever CO.
veting harmony George Yule made a
host of friends and his demise. although
not unexpected has cast shadow Of
sorrow over the county and especially
that portion which so long knew him
as public spirited citizen, good
neighbor and friend.
The funeral which was held Wednes-
day afternoon at New Castle under the
direction of General Shields Post, g.
A. R. was perhaps the largest ever held
in Garfield county, the neighbors and
friends coming for miles around to
show their respect for good man and
true citizen. Rev. f. N. Mallery
preached an interesting funeral ser

yelling CHAMPION
:. IN aLENwooo

Rex Barber and Earl johnson have
gone to Glenwood to ride over the
race course three or four times be-
fore the great Sunday race. Both
young men are in prime condition and
Barber, who is now down to "fghting
weight" will make every endeavor to
break all existing records for the 23-
mile course. Every year that Rex has
ridden he has been forced to ride
against heavy odds. Year before last
he rode against strong wind, and
part of the way in rainstorm. Last
year the wind blew gale in his face
all the way and the dust was inches
deep in places along the course. A
large crowd of admirers of the cycling
game and friends of the local riders
will take the train for Glenwood Sun
day morning to witness what may
prove to be the greatest ride ever
made over the course.-Grand junction

PAPER TALKS
RAILROAD EXTENsIoN

There is one thing needed in Gunni-
son county. which if accomplished
would set in motion more wheels,
would prove the handspring of more
industry and development than any
other single achievement. That is ex
tension and broadguaging of the Colo
RADIO g. Southern railroad.
And this is true not only of Gunni-
son county but of the entire Western
Slope including Delta, Montrose, Mesa
Hinsdale, Ouray and San Miguel coun-
ties west of us.
1t is the key to the whole problem
of transportation in that it would fur
nish route to Denver, one hundred
miles shorter than any other possible
outlet.
There is talk of the Dotsero cutoff
of road over Huntsman hills to
Marble, of utilizing the Colorado Mid
land, of securing Rio Grande broad
guage and of dozen and one alterna-
tive propositions, but time upon them
Is wasted. The Colorado and Southern
is one hundred miles shorter than anv
other possible outlet. That saving in
time, that saving in distance answers
the whole question, and the further
Fact that the Southern is now in the
hands of competent railroad people is
assurance that if this extension was
secured the Rio Grande broad guage,
the cutoffs, mentioned, the Paradox,
Crawford and Cedaredge side lines
would follow so quickly the Western
Slope would think it part of the same
movement.
We repeat, here is the key to the
Ehole situation, it will not do to say
we cannot secure this extension. Moth
Ing is impossible for united and be
ligerest community, and Furthermore
1t is the logical and the paying thing
for the Colorado & Southern to under
take. The coal and cattle, fruit and
sugar beets. the hay and quartz ore
and passengers are here for second
road. 1t would prove stimulus to
Rio Grande business rather than divid-
It up.
Talk Colorado & Southern exten-
sion. Work for it. The future will
demonstrate the truth of this state
nent.-Gunnison News Champion.

.SHAFROTHT'S EXTRA
IS ON THE ROCKS

Governor Shafroth' $ particular hobby,
the extra session was convened last
Tuesday after futile attempt of the
governor and his herders to get the
legislators together and to secure an
agreement as to how the "seven para
mounts'' should be disposed of. The
recalcitrants proved a little too wary
for "honest John" but finally they
were rounded up and induced to sign
an agreement to go into caucus and
abide by the caucus action.
But there We're so many exceptions
to this agreement that it was soon re-
garded as huge joke. One fellow
saved an exception to this and another
to that until what at first looked like
an ironclad. alright and watertight
agreement began to show a strong re-
semblance to n sieve.
One of the amusing features of tho
entertainment" was the criticism
Wednesday by Representative Green
man against Chaplain RAIDER who pray
ed that the Lord should "make us free
from the influence of interests which
grow to be harmful to the people"
Whether Greenman thought RAIDER WAS
cutting out too big job for the AL
mighty or whether he resented what
he considered an unwarranted insinua.
tion against the house members or
whether he felt guilty and blamed the
chaplain for giving the snap away the
press dispatches fail to state.
At all events so many Of the fellows
showed a disposition to renig on their
agreements and exceptions were multi
plying so fast by Friday night that
the party leaders in desperation forced
an adjournment until Monday and IN
the meantime the party lash will be
literally used where It will do tho
most good.

Another of Garfield county's pioneer,
has answered the roll call and gone IN
his long home and the places that
knew him will know him no more for
ever.
Many were the sad hearts when the
word was passed around that George
Yule who has been in poor health for
the past two years had gone to his re-
ward, death coming to him last Mon
day morning at Salida where he had
gone for treatment some time ago.
Those who have observed Mr.. Yule g
rapid decline since he came to Glen
wood two years ago have felt for sew
eral months that the end was very near
and when the writer was asked recent
ly by the kind old gentleman to sigo
as a witness to his last will and tesla
ment it forced the feeling that Mr..
Yule realized his condition and had
segun to set his house in order.
George Yule was born June 20, 1885
in Banffshire, Scotland. His parents
emigrated to the United States when
George was five years old. settling in
Ashland county, Ohio where they re-
mained for some time, moving later to
Keokuk, Iowa. The father died in
1886 and the mother in 1899. In 1858
George moved to Mound City, Kansas
but after two years returned to Iowa.
In 1862 he enlisted in the civil war
in the Fortieth Iowa infantry, going
in as a private and being discharged
as a second lieutenant at Davenport
in August, 1865. Soon after his return

GOOD FOR AN OFF YEAR

The North Fork part of the county
expects to ship 500 carloads of apples
this fall. While it is less than half
what that section shipped during last
year, it is a lot of apples. 1t means
100000 boxes of apples to be marketed
from one section of the county alone,
and while that will be the heaviest
producing section, it can be depended
upon that the balance of the county
will ship that many more carloads
which is not so bad for an off year

THE THINKERS

Parson Twine.-When I dom It feel
well, ] know what is the trouble:
worry too much, I eat too fast and
smoke too much. Why don t I take
better care of myself? because my
ancestors were fools for hundreds of
years. My father ate too fast and wor-
ried too much. / have his faults and
cannot get rid of them. Heredity IS
a terrible thing.
Charles w. Bishop-One year with
another an alfalfa farm will pay ten
per cent investment on every acre of
land worth 800 an acre. This is a
fact and no mistake about it. I doubt
if there is any farm land in any state
that one year with another will pay
any such dividend on grain crops. OF
course alfalfa is little better some
seasons than others. Then there is the
seed crop occasionally. This brings
up the average considerably, as seed
sells very high, sometimes $3.50 an acre.
Ihree years ago L bought 32O acres,
paying $3.50 ar acre. At that time
It looked like a pretty high price.
Today / will have no trouble at all
selling it for $50 an acre.

present has wonderful advantages not
possessed by the homesteader of the
past. He is in position to profit by
the mistakes of the western homestead.
er of thirty or more years ago and one
of the old homesteader s greatest mis-
takes was his frequent neglect of the
cow How often we hear the old Colo.
RADIO homesteaders say elf it had not
been for my cows I could not have
stayed through the hard times and dull
years. I would have lost my claim
had it not have been for the revenue
from my cows.' 1t is safe assertion
that no man who went through the
critical period would homestead west Of
the Missouri river without placing his
main dependency upon the cow.

candy the equivalent in weight OF two
