ancial obligations to several other
business men Of his acquaintance.

time payment. as well as a calf. on

BUllDInG IMPROVEMENTS
on LINCOLN PARK

The resident Of Canon City who has
not driven over lincoln Park for sew
eral months. would be gratified by q
visit there now to see the building
improvements going on and the gen.
eral air Of thrift and progressiveness
that prevails IN that enterpTissng
and prosperous snberb. Everywhere
the results of a good crop year are
apparent and ranchers are fixing W
their homes and surroundings with r
view Of getting the most out OF life
and enjoying the advantages that arc
within their grasp.
Among the building operations not
ed q day or two ago during trip
through q portion OF the Park may b.
mentioned the following: A green
house for the propagation Of garden
plants and vegetables By Ackcr brcsn-
ers at the corner OF Logan street and
Sherman avenue: an attractive new
brick residence ON the premises Of
O. W. Anthony on Logan street; a
new frame house belonging to c. a.
schleiffarth at the corner Of Logan
street and Sherman avenae: n hne
cement block house on East Sherman
avenue for NJ O. Gaines. which Will
be. when completed. one Of the most
oonvenisnt and attractive homes on

This list does not by any means In
ciude all of the improvements being
made on the Park. n fact. Z. eee= no.

4. At the ghearing yesterday on the
protest fled by Fremont county
the board of directors OF the Colo
faao State Fair association after
stormy session and after vascillating
nom side to side finally decided In
fnvor Of the defendants.
The meeting was called to order by
J. B. Beaman. president Of the board.
at 10 a. m, and at once 1t became
evident that representatives from
Delta and Mesa counties were not dis
posed to face the facts but were de-
tsrmined to fight the thing through on
technicalities After considerable
amount OF discussion the board Of
directors voted to consider the case
On the facts as they existed and to
waive the question Of technicaiities.
After the facts were presented.
however. and the board went into
executive session. It was determined
to disregard all proof and facts
and when the nnal vote was taken
the question was decided upon the
technicaiity that Fremont county had
been too late In putting In their pro-
test That II was not placed until
October 18th, instead Of within "a
hous from the time the fair closed.
On October the 18th the same board
Of directors voted to waive this tech
nicality and to allow Fremont county
to put In their protest. 80 in their
dscision yesterday It was a complete
reversai Of their own opinion. Tho
committee from Fremont county who
had this protest in charge is not
through. The fight has just COM
nenced. The committee does not wish
10 make any further statements at
this time until they have in their
possession the written report from
the board OF directors which they will
receive in a few days
Speaking on the subject. Mr.. P. r.
Troutman. said this morning:
The only defense that Delta and
Meea counties attempted to put up
was the fact that there were only
four commercial varieties OF apples
grown in the state Of Colorado and
that on these four varieties they took
most Of the prizes and that there
fore they should receive the sweep
stakes for the best exhibit no mat
ter how the balance of the records
stood.
The defense was absurd and with
out foundation and had the board OF
directors stood by their motion to
consider the facts and the facts alone.
Fremont county would have come out
the victor. AS 1t is the committee
does not feel at all discouraged. 1t is
of course too late now to have the
awards reversed. but it is not too late
to expose and publish broadcast the
facts as they stand. which, when
published. will not be complimentary
to the board OF directors Of the Colo
rsdo State Fair and the growers Of
the Western slope"

The financial situation OF the state
is to say the least. critical. Third class
appropriations are not bc.sss paid al
all and payment on certain seconi-
class appropriations is being refused
until after December first. Especially
Dis this true on the Insane Asylum
fund. No reason is given for this re-
fusal but it is generally conceded that
It comes from the fact that the Of
f,cials have 70 hold up these payments
in order to meet the November pay
roll for this year.
This is the nrst time in Colorado :
history that second class appropria-
tions have been held up for want oi
funds
All this because the shsfrqth en-
ployes total In aumber OF employees
more than that OF Mcdonald and
Buchtel combined and also because
the shafroth payrolis total more cash
than did the psyrolls OF Buchtel and
Mcdonald.
