to remain in the country life en-
vironment for two or three years

ministering this winter.

BAND READY
TO PLAY FOR
ITS EXPENSES
Organization in Fine Shape and
Weekly Concerts Can BE Had II
a Little Help Is Given

1t is up to the city council and
musically inclined people of Greeley
If there are any band concerts in the
park this summer.
The Greeley band is in better shape
than ever to give high class concerts
and expects to do so If there is any
support given their enterprise. There
are now "a players in the organiza-
ton, rehearsals are being held twice
week and G. R. Miller, who sue
cessfully conducted the band until
last year, has taken charge again.
The organization represents an
investment of $1,000 in music and
ed for actual expenses in carrying
the band through the season. The
concerts that have been given in
years gone by have not been a pay
ing proposition for the musicians, as
the last concert year there was
exactly 50 for each member of the
band at the end of the season.
| 1t is planned to give popular
concert in the park each Friday
evening during the warm weather.
The enormous crowds attending the
concerts in the past seasons attests
their popularity with the people. 4
liberal donation from the city ant
, a few subscriptions from the wealth
ier people of the city will insure
some good music for Greeley during
the summer.

Will PICNIC
AS MONUMENT
IS DEDICATED
Perpetuation Of Old California
Oregon Trail

Instead of sending all of their
money to the national society of D.
A. R., the members of the Greeley
chapter has decided to erect markers
on the California and Oregon trail in
Colorado and at the meeting of the
society Wednesday it was voted to
erect the first OF these at St. Vrain,
one of the oldest forts IN this state,
which was visited by the early ex-
plorers.
Only the ruins of the fort remain
and it is the plan of the ladies to
erect a suitable monument of gran
ite, with the upper part polished and
inscribed with the interesting his
torfcal events in connection with the
place.
Flag day, June IA. has been de-
cided for the day OF the unveiling OF
the monument and it Is thought that
there will be an excursion run to st
vrain on that day and the resident.
of Greeley will be given a chance tt
visit the spot and have an enjoyable
picnic.
This point was visited by Johl
Charles Fremont on his first expedi
tion across the continent in 1874:
on the trip and he was accompanfe
by 21 men, mostly Creole and Ca
madam voyagers.

WANT SPECIAL
GREELEY RATE
FOR SUNDAYS
Appeal Will Re Made to Railroad
Companies to Give Low Round
Trip Rate During Summer

A concerted effort will be made
by the business men and others in
terested to have the various rafl-
roads entering Greeley give reduced
rates from surrounding points on
Sundays for the benefit of those who
wish to come into the city to visit
friends for the day. to attend the
church services or the ball games.
The point is made that reduced
rates are given into Denver from all
surrounding points during the sum-
mer and they feel that Greeley is
entitled to the same consideration,
being the central and most import
ant city in northern Colorado.
Those promoting the fast ball
team that It IL hoped to get are con-
vinced thta games here would draw
large crowds from out OF town II
reasonable round trip rates were
granted for the other towns. The
matter will be taken up at an early
date with the railroad companies.

\ QUESTION FOR PITrsSIsANIA CANDI-
DATES

good deal is being said concerning the
quiazine OF candidates for the General Assembly
in reference TO their position upon matters Of
public moment. It is held by many, and the
Vsrgtnadn heartily concurs in this position that
candidates should give voters their views upon
the important issues that may demand legis-
atiou at the next session OF The General AS
semhy constituency has reasonable right
to know the position OF the man who seeks
the opportunity of representing it. and folly
follows the ballet Of the man who votes In
ignorance of the policies Of the candidate
whom he supports
matter Of great moral moment was pre-
cipitated at the last session and may be intro
duced again, viz. the amendment Of our di-
vorce laws. to make the route TO a dis
solution OF the marriage relation easier than at
sion II WAS publicly asserted that the bill
was drawn in the interest of wealthy citizen
Of Southsde Virginia Who desired facility in
severug his martial relations Senator Rison
of pttsyiyania was the patron Of the measure.
A great lobby pressure brought to bear
in it's support and it's defeat was accomplished
with much difficulty.
The bfgtntdn stands squarely against the
eheapening Of the marriage vows, and the too
common tendency 10 seek and secure relief from
a ontgatet which, though sacred, may have be-
come irksome 1t suggests therefore that
citizens Of Danylle and Pittsylvania would do
well to ascertain the views of candidates upon
this question before supporting them in the
coming election. especially as Senator Rison is
candidate for reelection

WHO Is To BLAME?

A correspondent wants.to know why the At

Law forbidding saloons and dispensaries in

Boydton and vvgilina in point, each
having a dspensary and neither having as
many az the required number Of Inhabitants.
We would inform our friend that the Attor-
ney-General is not charged with investigating
local offenses under the criminal laws OF the
State, has he the authority to institute
criminal proceedings against offenders. Such
matters are within the fespons blRy and duty
OF local authorities.
We would suggest that citizens. who are
eognizant of such violations OF law would rem

they would make complaint to the local authori-
