Unusual Printing

A printing Office Of the English
speaking sort is often called upon to
perform some strange, stunts with
foreign languages. While the writer
was in Leadville he was frequently
asked to get out hand bills in Aus
trian, Italian and French and in Des
Moines it was no uncommon thing in
the Office where he worked to turn out
in the Yiddish dialect. This week We
printed a batch of personal advcrtis-
ing cards for Col. B. ii. Spratt in Rus
sian. They will be used by that en-
terprising salesman to advertise his
calling among the Russian speaking
people living in this county and sur
rounding territory. Bring 'cm on.
We'd print 'em, If they were in Chin
csc, at the New Era-of course.

Fire in WindStOrm

The fire whistle brought many Of
our citizens out of bed at an early
hour Saturday morning and many of
them we're ''making tracks" for the
alfalfa mill where some thought the
fire to be. when a telephone message
from DR.. Ransom's farm brought the
burning there. The house and barns
were in danger on account OF the high
wind, and the Ransom family was on
the anxious seat for several hours.
They appreciate the interest taken in
the matter by the citizens Of Ordway
and regret that the alarm brought so
many out of their warm beds at that
early hour.

suit died In the fall OF 1908 by the
Catholics reached US too late to give
a history OF the case, and we will state
as briefly as possible that they have
won the suit. according to information
received from Pueblo yesterday. The
suit was brought to determine the
boundary lines OF the land purchased
by the Catholics on which they erect
ed their church and parsonage. Their
deed called for two.thirds OF block Is,
and, according to their idea, which
proved sufficient grounds for the suit,
took In part OF the block claimed by
the defendants, T. II. Cash and the
State Savings and Trust company.
The east line OF their property Is now
placed at point several feet east OF
the west wall OF the brick residence
occupied by l. II. Shelton ard leaves
part OF the improvements on the
Catholics ground.
The case has been In the district
court all these years, and the decision
of Judge Rizer Is. considered as .tiaal,
though the defendants may appeal.
Other cases may come up to determine
whether Otero avenue really extends
through this block or Is the property
OF the defendants In the suit. The
outcome will be watched with much
interest by our citizens.

Wedding Didn't Take Plac e

The day was set; cards were out.
The bride was in readiness; the guests
in large numbers were there, and yet
the wedding did not come off, and all
because the groom forgot the date set
for the wedding. The young man was
grief stricken but he got no sympathy
from the public because they said he
should have remembered SO important
a date.
The readers of this paper will be in
the same predicament that the BRIDE

employers will end at the same time,
and there is great likelihood that the
two classes of miners will combine so
that they will effectively tie up the
entire coal industry,
The miners will demand increases of
about 10 per cent, shorter hours and
the recognition of the union. The
United Mine Workers are already hard
at work in the. coal fields trying to
get all coal workers TO join the union,
SO that there will be no experienced
non union men to draw from
The thorough manner in which, the
union Is making its canvass is regarded
as menacing by the coal operators
everywhere. 1t is said that the mine
owners feel now that they are at the
mercy of the men. 1t is certain, how
ever, judging by what some of the local
dealers say, that the coal barons will
put up a strong fight If strike is de-
clared, and will n Ike an attempt to
disrupt the union or at least declare an
''open shop.
The fact that the heads of families
are stocking up and laying in supply
to last q couple of winters Is being
looked upon by the officials of the
union, 1t is said, as Strengthening their
side. With every coal bin filled with
the necessary supply. it will be impos-
/ sible for the coal kings to make the
plea to the public that the miners are
| depriving thousands of families of fuel
and are causing the poor to freeze.
