Second in a Series

It is not contended that if the two
towns were united that our taxes
would be less, but it is safe to claim
that they would not be higher.
1t appears to the average man that
it is foolish to keep up two or three
organizations where one would ans
wer the purpose and be much better
and cheaper 1t appears foolish for
Canon City and South Canon TO be
two separate towns when their inter-
ests are identical. Wouldn't it be
much better for all of us to be to-
gether and working together for one
common good?
A larger town can legislate much
better than a smaller one.
1t has been the experience of every
one that has tried it; in small towns
where any measure is proposed that
would make the town beautiful or
pleasant to live in the objection of
one chief citizen kills it. For ms
ttance, one of the chief Avenues of
South Canon, travelled more than any
other Avenue or street, is but As feet
wide. The question has been before
our town board for the past 20 years
to widen this Avenue, but nothing
doing"-afraid to offend some one.
South Canon is not alone in this mat
ter, it is the common custom among
all small towns. l contend that were
we united we could get more effective
Legislation.
Good legislation is not for today or
tomorrow, but for years to come and
future generations to enjoy.

TOP OF GREEkHORnS

A party of horsemen under the lead
ership of DIR. Orendorff will leave
Canon City early some morning next
week on an excursion to 1.-THE cabins
on the crest of the Greenhorn noun
tains, some fifteen or eighteen miles
southwest of town. While the trip
is primarily pleasure one an effort
will be made to locate route for n
road by which vehicles can make the
ascent. The view from the top of the
Greenhorn range is said by those who
have seen it to be one of the most
magnificent in Colorado and they are
enthusiastic for the construction OF
highway there that will enable the
public to enjoy its beauties. The next
scenic roadway constructed in this
county will, in all probability, be
from Canon City to the summit of the
Greenhorn's. Those who desire to ac-
company DR.. orendorff's party on the
reconnaissance trip next week are re-
quested to see H. S. MADDOX. secretary
of the Canon City Business Mems as
sociation, about the matter without
delay. No more delightful days pic
nicking is possible in this state than
the one in question.

HIGH TRIBUTE TO FREMONT :.
GOUNTYS ENTERPRISE

In an editorial under the caption,
$50 The People May Be Advised"
the Pueblo chieftain of Thursday
said:
Canon City and Pueblo through
their commercial organizations have
for some time been laboring together
to get an improved highway between
the two cities by way of Florence. It
is to be hoped their labors will soon
be crowned with success.
The commercial advantages of such
highway are obvious. Recognizing
them, then every interest in Pueblo
should combine to secure the neces-
sary improvements For the advant-
ages would be almost wholly for this
city. Pueblo is the natural trade CEN
ter for all southern Colorado and one
of the principal means OF getting that
DuSiuesS WHICH DelouBS mere 10 auS-
quate transportation facilities. Good
train service and the public highway
are the essentials. With boulevard
between these two cities many more
vehicles would pass between them, and
while a part of the traffic might be
for pleasure, it would for the most
part mean increased business for Pu-
eblo.
True, Fremont county would not
have to do much in actual improve
ments to assure a safe and good road
between the cities named. The roads
of Fremont county are in good shape
Pueblo county could do much toward
the disired end by improving the first
five miles from this end This is the
worst part of the road What part
F; Fremont county would do can best
be judged from the fact that during
1910 with an assessed valuation oi
| $6,S60,770.00 spent $44,164.62 on
roads. During the same year Pueblo
county, with an increased valuation
of $26,eS1 .o44OO, spent on roads s26,
G31.04.
There can be no doubt of the state
ments made by those men who hav,
been working for this boulevard tC
the effect that $4,000 spent on tha
road would yield many times tha
amount within FIVE years"

Deafness Cannot Be Cured.

by local applications. as they cannot
reach the diseased portion OF the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infiamed condition OF the mucouslin-
ing OF the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have n
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when 1t is entirely closed. Deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
flammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to Its normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out OF ten are caus-
ed by Catarrh, which is nothing but
an infamed condition OF the mucous
surfaces.

upou whom the police had received

Repeatedly the police charged the
turbulent element, however and the
records of the Red Cross, the White

for forty three wounded as Il result os

The stoning Of the aged general was
the climax Of riot that began about
10 o'clock Sunday morning and had no,
been entirely quelled at late hour last
night Since its beginning police and
soldiers have patroled the streets, but.
because Of the governments desire not
to use the iron hand. the heavily armed
horsemen had but an intimidatory ef-

Placing their faith in the word OF
the government that equal guarantee
would be given all parties in the cam

he would welcome honest opposition,

NEW LIQUOR LAW POINT.
Does Injunction Prevent Sale of saIoor
Qutriqht?

Special 20 Times Republican
owa City, Sept. "A new phase of
the liquor problem and mulct law will
be threshed out in the district court OF
Iowa City, as a result Of the a:ti-sa-
loon activities Of the civic league here.
j. NJ. Webb has been sued by John n.
Bothell. prominent retired farmer.
who is a league leader. The court is
asked 10 grant an injunction closing
the Webb saloon. 1t is not charged
that Webb. personally. violated the law
but that &c secured his place of busi-
ness from Kenney & Company. taking
over the latter firms license. The point
Of contention is that the earlier firm
violated the law by selling to 'Keeley-
ties etc. and that the injunction that
the court then granted prevented the
sale Of the saloon to Webb. and. hence,
that Webb. whether he observed the
mulct law or not in other respects is
not legally in possession of a license.
This is the first time the knotty point
has reached the local courts.
