Uncle Sam and His Divorces.

Almost every twelfth marriage In
this country ends in a divorce. About
two-thirds of the divorces are granted
to the wife. Thirty-nine per cent of
divorces are due to desertion- The
marriage rate in southern states is
larger than in the north. America
with the single exception of Japan
leads the world in the number of d.
vorces. The divorce rate is three times
as large as 1T was in 1870. OF the di-
vorce cases that come up only Is per
cent. are contested. and IS per cent. of
the divorce applications are granted.
Uncle Sam not only has high divorce
rate, but has the highest marriage rate
on earth, his only rivals in the latter
line being Hungary, west Australia
and Saxony- ireland has the lowest
marriage rate and Sweden the next
lowest

SNERO, KILLER OF DOYLE,
WAS WELL KNOWN HERE

That Frank Snero. the Mexican
murderer Of Bruce Doyle of Delta.
was well known in Grand Junction
and that he had worked in this vi
cinity all summer. was the informa-
tion CLEANED this morning when a
photograph of the slayer was receiv-
ed by the local sheriff's office.
The description originally fur
nished by the Delta county authorl-
ties casued the arrest OF several sus-
poets, but as soon as the picture was
seen here it was at once recognized
as the portrait of a Mexican well
known in Grand Junction and vi
cinity,
The fact that he was well known
here probably caused him to take
some other route on leaving the
scene of his crime and he is now be
lieved to have gone either southwark
or out by the way of Gunnison. He
has not been seen here since the
killing of Doyle.

BLACKSTONE BROS.
"UP TO PEOPLE" SAYS
WASHINGTON LAWYER
OF HIGH LINE MATTER

In a letter to DR.. Thadd Parker
in this city, a prominent attorney and
politician of Washington, ID. c., has
the following to say concerning the
Grand valley project of the reclama-
tion service. 1t will be seen that
matters are in a large measure "up
to local people, to see that the exist
ing difficulties are cleared way. The
extract from the letter follows:
In regard to the High Line ditch
of which you enquire, | would say
that from one of my old friends in
the reclamation service | learn that
the matter is regarded here as some
what up in the air; that progress
is hampered and delayed because of
very high prices for the right-of-way
of the ditch demanded by some of
the owners of land TO be crossed and
it has been thought that some of
the prices fixed were so eXorbitant
that the government would not be
justified in paying same. Some
thought has been given to condemna-
tton proceedings and an effort is
under way on the part of the officials
of the reclamation service to adjust
the matter through friendly negotia-
tions that would obviate the necessi-
ty for condemnation suits and de-
lays. In short, it seems to be up to
the people interested to aid the gov
ernment, if practicable, to obtain the
requisite right-of-way for the ditch
at fair and moderate prices. | take
it that there is a strong disposition
on the part of the government to
undertake the project if the same can
be done with proper and becoming
economy"

AVOID LICENSE FEES
By Buying Up Lands on Which Christ
mas Trees" Grow.

Rutland, Dec. l9.--The records of the
town Of Mount Holly, which is at the
center of the Christmas tree traffic in
Vermont, Indicate that wholesale dealers,
who live outside of the state, have found
a way to avoid the payment Of the state
license fee, which under a law passed In
1910 is 20 cents for every little evergreen
that is cut The dealers contend that
this fee is exorbitant and that the bust
ness could not be carried on with profit
with such restrictions.
The statute permits a man to cut trees
on his own land without the payment Of
a license, so in order 70 be within the
law and get rid of the expense of the
license wholesalers are ostensibly buy
ing pieces of mountain land which are
covered with young spruees, there being
tacit understanding that the plots
may be decided back TO the original own
ers after the seasons crop of trees has
been harvested.
The shipment from Mount Holly and
vicinity this year has been about 200
carloads. This is about the average cut
for the district and as practically no Ii
censes have been taken out, and no com.
plant has reached the states attorney
there ID every indication that the whole
salers' scheme 10 defraud the state of
the license fee is operating successfully
