Not Reliably Informed.

Fhe gentleman who wore evening clothes and the remnants of a jag at 9 o'clock in the morning was clinging to the footboard of a crowded surface car in Chicago. As the car rounded a sharp curve with a jerk the person in incongruous apparel fell quickly and heavily to the cobblestones. He was picked up by the strong hands of the conductor and about twenty passen- gers.
 "Collision?9 he asked in a dignifed tone of voice.
 No" said the conductor.
 .@f the traek?" further questioned the victim of the accident.
 No" said the conductor
 Well" concluded he of the jag. If I had known that I wouldn't have got off."-Popular Magazine

The majority against the Moffat
tunnel was only 47,19l. And this re-
minds us that Denver is not raising
the money as readily as some might
be led to believe according to the
Denver newspapers. There are twen-
ty-five men in Denver who could pro-
vide the money just as well as not
But the men in question seldom give
up anything. They are on the all-hog
style. And this is the reason that
Denver will not provide the necessary
money for constructing the tunnel. A
great many people in Denver are also
wondering why, if the Moffat road

growers have opened stores in DEN

rate of 50 per box by the commission
men and dealers. Begins to look as

men who are getting rich and make
them get out and hustle like other
people. A spin around the wholesale
district Of Denver will reveal from
seventy-fve to 100 commission mer-
chants-all in combine against the
producer-and every last one making
money. Some two years ago at the
national apple show and convention in
Denver this question was discussed.
One of the growers plainly showed
that the middIemen were getting all
the profits. Now that fruit growers
have awakened to the real situation
maybe there will be something doing
along other lines.

The secretary of the board of trade
has written Senator Guggenheim and

be made at this session if possible
The facts and data regarding the re-
qmrements are in the hands of the

Gry department. 1t is to be hoped
some action will be taken, but it is
barely possible, this being the short
enc of the session and "A general

that not only Durango but all other
towns of the same class, will be over
looked. In this connection il might
be well for our Democratic friends to
write the congressman to get busy
and do what they can to help secure
an appropriation. Senator Guggen-
helm stands pledged to care for the
measure in the senate if it reaches
that body prior to the expiration of
his term, hence all depends on the
action of the house.
