Donate Ice to Civic League.

Referring to the big half-page adj
ve%rtisement Of the Consumers Ice
company in yesterdays Herald in
which il was stated that the com
pany would give its entire output
of yesterday to the Civic League, Mr..
Puente, the manager, stated that
only $500 punds were donated. This
was owing to the fact that the stor-
age room was not yet ready for use,
and would not be for a few days.
However, Mr.. Puente stated, GER
tain amounts would be given each
day for a few days until the entire
promised As tons had been put out
for the benefit Of the league. The
ice manufactured the first day OF
operation could not be used because
OF the newness Of the plant.

PRINCIPLES OF EFFICIENCY
Definitions of Each and Application
to Municipal Work.

In a paper before the American
Water Works association, Harring-
ton Emerson discussed at consid-
cradle length the principles of eff
ficiency as applied to water works.
Space does not permit us to repro
duce the paper. but a few of the
more salient ideas and principles are
given in abstract herewith.
General principles fall into two
classes, the altruistic principles and
the practical principles. The prac-
,tical principles are those underlying
scientific management; the altruistic
principles are those underlying in
dustrial Righteousness. The highest
efficiency depends on both righteous
ness and management.
THE altruistic principles of eff
ficiency are six:
Ideals.
Common sense and judgment.
o-COmpetent n
discipline.
5-The fair deal.
efficiency reward.
The practical principles are also
six:
Observation-Disclosures, reliable
and adequate.
planning and despatching.
standards.
4-Standardized conditions.
standardized operations.
6-Written standard practise in
structions."

ELKS SUFFER DEFEAT-EIGHT
TO TWO.
Good Crowd Enjoy Game Between
Elks and NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
Literally Applauded-The Game
Leaves Civic League Richer by SIS

The Invincibles proved invincible
to the Bills in more ways than one
in yesterdays game at Cobolini park.
Hits innumerable were made by both
teams. However. excepting two
runs made in the first inning, the
Elks were unable to make another
squirt, and the game ended with a
score of s to 2 in favor of the in
vincible Invincibles.
The feature of the game was the
teamwork of the battery composed of
the mysterious Brothers Hallmark,
NJ. pitching and w. catching.
The winners scored n on the
Elks, it seems. when this battery
was announced, and though the
courage Of the Bills held to the very
last they could not 'brlt feel shat the
outcome would be as ii was.
P. Kowalski achieved fame for
himself when he made two beautiful
catches midway between his post at
second. and first base. Many calls
were made from the grand stand for
a speech, but Mr.. Kowalski, being a
modest gentleman wass content to
rest with the honors already at
tanned.
Taken all in all. and considering
the fact hal the Bills are supposed
to comport themselves to better adj
vantage on ballroom floors than on
base ball diamonds, the game was a
good one and worth seeing. BY
special request the details of the
game are not given.

slope and eastern state markets. The
Grand Junction Fruit Growers have
sent out small shipments and express
shipments from Clifton, Palisade and
Fruita, as well as Grand Junction, are
reaching Denver to make apple pies
for the eastern slope people. The
cherry crop is very heavy, but there
is sufficient labor TO gather the
crop.
Following this, the apricots and
plums will start for the market and
they will be followed by the heavier
fruits and berries. Strawberries are
being shipped and local consumers
are eating a large quantity of berries
grown in this neighborhood. The
apricot crop is heavy and carload lots
will probably be set out for the first

Not far OFF Broadway, in the New
York financial district, stands one of
the nations largest banks, controlled
by the wealthiest family in the coun-
try. To the management of this
bank the mention of the name of
Roosevelt any time during the past
four or five years has been as the
rubbing of salt into an open wound
THE management of this same
bank has now declared itself in favor
of Roosevelt, predicting that he Will
be nominated and elected. This tre-
mendous transition in the attitude
of the powerful business group which
up to ten days ago looked to the eN-
president as the most threatening to
the business horizon, is explained
thus: FL.
1--WE have decided to support
Roosevelt because, in spite of all of
our former hatred of the mans per-
sonality. he is the only man in sight
who can give the country the four
years Of tremendous prosperity for
which we are after.
If We are going to have prosper
ity for the next four years, the rail-
roads of this country must have a
no market for railroad securities to-
day except at impossible bargains.
That is because increase in wages
and taxes and the decreases in rates
under government regulation has
made the situation such that the in
vestor no longer has the assurance of
security of railroad earnings that
will make certain even a fair return
on his capital. For that reason the
investor has turned almost entirely
to industrial issues, which included
6 per cent
Theodore Roosevelt is the only
man who can convince people of the
United States of the fairness of the
demand of the railroads, that they be
allowed to earn sufficient to prevent
the diversion of capital from railroad
securities. He sees the position the
railroads are in. He appreciates the
attitude of capital in its demands for
the security of fair return"

WALL STREET FOR ROOSEVELT

New York, June 10.-Considera-
Bile of sensation has been caused by
the long announcement, made in the
Wall Street Journal Saturday, to the
effect that Wall street is now anx-

movements of the great financial in
