LITTLE BEN BIS BOOM A JOKE

Chicago, June 1S.-W With two full
sets of delegates and alternates and
twenty-five private citizens on the
scene, Colorado is well represented at
the convention. The regular delegation
arrived Monday afternoon, caucuscd
and elected Guggenheim chairman and
Mcdonald and Hill vice charmen
Devine is slated for chairman of the
credentials committee. Parish was
named to represent Colorado on the res
olutions committee.
The Colorado delegates pledged them
selves to vote for Taft on the first bal
lot and the last.
No switches will be considered by
the Colorado men. The Lindsey COST
gan delegates will be on the outside
looking in.
The protest filed by Lindsey was
completely ignored by the national
committee and there will probably be
no attempt made to bring the Colorado
fight onto the floor of the convention.
ga joke is the way Senator Dixon
characterized the Lindsey boom for
vice president in private conversa-
ton with a Colorado delegate. Lindsey
and the members of his delegation in
sist that it is not joke, and that
Lindsey will be nominated if Roosc-
welt controls or bolts.
Lindsey has become famous as
parader since coming to Chicago. He
is conspicuous in each of the numerous
Roosevelt parades and IS willing to
start parade at any time.
Congressman Rucker dropped in at
the Colorado headquarters ON his way
to Denver.
81 will not stay for the conven-
tion,'' said Rucker. 81 never did
like funerals. The republican party
has our sympathy, and congratulations
for Champ Clark are in order

CANON CITY GETS
ODD FELLOW HOME

Canon City, June 1S.-The choice 'f
Canon City for the location of the
proposed Odd Fellows home by the
trustees of the grand lodge of that
order, is the source Of great rejoicing
here today on the part of the local
members of the order as well as the
citizens of the community in general.
This evening an impromptu booster
banquet was held at the Hotel Denton
by the business men to celebrate tn,
occasion. A local committee has been
at work today raising bonus Of
$500 to assist the trustees in the pur-
chase of a site for the home and in a
whirwind campaign of a few hours
the money was raised. The site which
has been accepted is tract of fortv
acres in Fifteenth street lying short
distance east of the Canon City high
school. Most of the land belongs to
j. l.. Harrison and the purchase price
is $l5,975. The site is an ideal one in
every respect. IL is h'al'hlu III anu
pleasant commanding magnificent
tiation of any such measure and asks
the governor to wait until the legis!a-
ture meets before taking action and
then it can legally be legislated.
Attorney General Ben Griffith, who
has been looking into the question as
to the right to initiate bill which will
place the good roads fund in the hands
of the highway commission is reported
to have reached a conclusion that such
bill would be valid and that the peo
pie can be stretched to mean a "legis

STEPHAN ASSERTS PEOPLE
CANNOT VOTE ROADS BILL

George Stephan, state senator from
Delta county, president of the Western
Slope Good Roads association and au-
thor Of the slO000,OOO good roads bill
passed by the last legislature, has writ
ten letter to Governor Shafroth reply
ing to the governor letter of June |.
IN which Shafroth declares he has no
doubt that a bill initiated and passed
by the people placing the good roads
fund IN the hands of the state highway
commission would be valid and binding.
In his letter Mr. stephan draws at.
tentlon to the fact that the legislature
snail be the distributor of the money
paid to the state by the United States
into the internal Improvement fund,
and that any construction attempting
to allow the people themselves to act
as a "legislative bodyn would be over.
ruled by the courts and the fund tied
up indefinitely. For this reason the
writer declares himself against the I'M
view in every direction and possesses
advantages that could hardly be duplI-
Gated elsewhere. The city has agreed
to extend its water and sewer system
to the site, and grant free water to the
institution for five years, concessions
which are said to be worth $4,000. The
grand lodge /. o. o. f. of Colorado has
at the present time 100000 in Its
treasury as fund to be invested ~
the proposed home for its aged, infirm
and dependent members, and the fund
is being added to annually.
The trustees have been empowered to
secure the services of an expert land
scape gardener to lay out the ground
and to proceed with their improve
ment as soon as the plans for the build
ing are accepted. There are said to be
at the present time eighty persons elig-
ible to admission to the proposed home.
The grand lodge of the Odd Fellows of
Colorado will meet in Canon CITY in
October.

BUILD YOUR OWN FENCE

A good general purpose pasture
fence can be built for sixty cents a
rod. Galvanized wire is the best. A
barb wire along the ground w1il pro
vent the hogs from lifting the fence.
Two inches above this, twenty-six inch,
seven strand, woven wire with No. 3
bar wires, and No. IL intermediate
wires, is used. This can be bought
for about thirty cents rod. Five
inches above the woven wire barb
should be stretched and the top barb
wire fourteen inches above this. If
the posts can not be furnished on the
farm they may be bought for about
eighteen cents. Concrete posts can be
made on the farm for about sixteen
cents, and are very good for pasture
fence.
A United States farmers bulletin
No. 4O3, gives detailed instructions
about making concrete fence posts
This may be had from the U. 8. de-
partment of agriculture.
G. F. Chase, assistant in farm me
chanics in the Kansas State Agricu
tnral college, says. "With ordinary
care this fence should last twenty
years; with concrete posts and an oc
casional repair, it will last life
time.n

POINTERS FOR THE MOTORIST.
How Brakes Often Cause Tire TrOu.

Sudden braking j. harmful TO
tires. It causes the wheels to be
dragged over the ground with the
result that the tire treads are quick
~ worn away Occasionally motor
lists apply their brakes % forcibly

IL this absolutely ruinous to envel-
opes, but according to the Michelin
Tire man, it Is not generally the
quickest way to stop car. Admon-
Of the same principle is often
seen in starting railroad train. iii
the throttle is opened suddenly the
wheels OF the locomotive will spin
around without gripping the rails and
the train stands still, whereas II the
steam be applied slowly the cars are
set in motion at once.
Moreover, if the brakes act with
unequal force, tire trouble is likely
to result One Of the wheels will
probably run free, while the other j.

latter wheel will soon show signs OF
wear.
