is also beyond my power of compre-

livered the goods. The whole thing
started because Swain happened to
make a bet in Denver last Monday with
Leo Vincent that he could knock our
Sunday evening banquet out, and gen
tlemen, he won that bet.
''It is my earnest wish that you gen
tlemen who managed this affair and
who SO graciously succumbed to the
prayerful plans of the Chieftain and
MIR. Swain not to desecrate the Sab
bath, will not be so dutiful in yielding
to their political pleas at the coming

ment should by any manner of means
be as fruitful as has been their relig.

PLIGHT OF A BANKRUPT STATE
State Institutions Told That They Can Have
No More MoneyThe Democrats Have
squandered It All and Know Not
Which Way to Turn

Once again have the state institu-
tons received hot air instead of cash
from the present state officials. With
seventy-five per cent of the third class
appropriations now due, the officials
have only paid twenty-five per cent.
Thursday the heads of the various in
swooped down on the capitol and de-
manded a showdown. They got it.
Treasurer Kenehan told them that be
cause of the first class appropriations.
which are pay rolls and incidentals, he
was already fourteen thousand dollars
in the hole for the period after having
paid twenty-five per cent to the third
class. In other words, the first and
second classes together with the TWEEN
ty-five per cent now paid on the third
class totals fourteen thousand dollars
more than is in sight for the entire
period. Governor Shafroth and Aud
itor Leddy tried to convince the treas
urer that he was wrong, but he would
not be convinced. The representatives
of the institutions were compelled to
return home without the money, or any
promises of any further money. At
the present time little over one hun
dred and ninety thousand dollars is
tied up in lawsuits because of ineffi
cient democratic legislation, in enact
ing the appropriations. If the court
holds that none of these appropria-
tions need be paid, the third class in
stitutions will receive another twenty
five per cent. If the court holds that
these appropriations must be paid, the
third class institutions have received
their limit. In this connection it
should not be forgotten that the total
first class appropriation under this BIZ
ennial period which means payroll an l
incidentals is 81 ,692 ,3O7.s5 as against
an approximate first class appropria-
tion of $500, 100000 under Governor
Buchtel AS State Treasurer Kenehan
ably said, eff Governor Shafroth had
held his payroll to the Buchtel payroll
we could have paid within seven per
cent of every Obligation
Considerable wonder is occasioned
from the fact that the present, or for
that matter, any administration of
state affairs can give no adequate
statement as to finances at any time.
In the case of the present administra-
alton. When the legislature met State
Treasurer Kenehan estimated that the
revenues for the period would be 4
little over three million dollars. The
legislature appropriated nearly so per
cent above that amount and the reve-
nues will hardly reach the estimate.

MoFFAT ROAD IN
RECEIVERS HANDS

Fate--- Road Played in Hard
Luck Interest Unpaid
FRIENDS ARE IN CHARGE

Denver, May 1.-Judge Harry Riddle
at 10 O'Clock tonight appointed Sam
NJ. Perry and Col, d. C. Dodge receiv-
ers for the Motfat railroad. At the
same time w. w. Watson was appoint
ed receiver for the Denver Railroad
Securities company which is the hold
ing company of the railroad interests
of the Moffat estate.
According to the papers filed asking
for the receivers the railroad owes
$1,20O,000 and the holding company
100000. The two suits are both
friendly ones and started in order to
protect the interests of the Moffat
estate. This is the second instance in
the history of the estate which shows
that it is in serious condition. After
the death of Moffat the sale of the
First National bank was forced.
Financial circles believe that this is
the first of number of moves whici
have for their object the securing OF
the Motfat road by another railway
company, probably the Burlington
which will then push it on through to
Salt Lake City.

A PLEA FOR THE FISH

G. IL. Thompson, fish culturist and
superintendent of the Estes Park fish
hatchery, is appealing to the public
through the press for more humane
Some of the recommendations made by
Thompson are printed on the back of
his business card and are as follows.
When removing an understood trout
from your hook, always moisten your
hands before grasping the fish; other
wise the dry hand will remove the
slime from the back of the trout, when
it is. ony question of time until
fungus sets in and the fish will die.
Always kill your fish when they are
large enough to keep, as soon as taken
from the hook. This can be done by
giving it stroke with stick on the
head, back Of the eyes. 1t will avoid
all suffering, and make your fish far
better for table use.
The American Fisheries society at
Washington, d. c., September 21-24,
1908, recommended that the various
state commissions educate the people
by every means in their power to fol
low the directions given about wetting
the hands
Endorsed by twenty-eight fish and
game commissioners throughout the
United States.

The facts are, they are collected one
year after they are expended, with the
exception of the funds that are L.
rived over the counters in the various
state offices which collect fees for GER
tain kinds of work. To illustrate:
TIE assessors of the state value the prop
erty of the state this spring. Later in
the year the state auditing board will
meet and place the mill levy against
that property to be used for state pur-
poses. The county officials will collect
that mill levy next year and send it
to the state treasurer. In the mean
time the officials at the state house
have been spending that money. This
years salaries are paid out of that
money, but it must be done on bor-
rowing system. The state auditor is
sues a warrant against the 1912 reve-
nues. The state treasurer will have
no 1912 revenues before next year.
However, he has on hand a considera-
BILE amount of what is termed school
funds. These funds are derived from
the sale and lease of state lands and
only the interest which can be secured
by the loaning of these funds can be
expended. The warrants issued by the
state auditor draw 4 per cent interest.
The state treasurer cashes these war
rants with this school fund and holds
them as security until next year, when
the funds are paid by the various
counties. At the present time the
counties are remtting the funds of
1911 and the state treasurer is redeem
ing the salary warrants which he cash
ed out of school funds last year.
1t can be seen that at best all bust
ness must be transacted on an esti-
mate State Treasurer Kenehan simply
has to take a guess as to what pro-
portion of next years taxes will be
paid. If he cashes a larger number Of
warrants this year than will be re-
deemed by the cash that comes in next
year he will be in the position of hav-
ing issued excess warrants. This the
state treasurer says he will never do.
And it is because of this condition
that he declines to pay greater sum
than he is actually sure will be col
leeted. 1t is well known fact that
last year the treasurer was assured
that the Moffat estate would bring at
least $4,000 into the treasury, and
acting upon this assumption he paid
to that estimate. The result is this
year he has reserve enough to cover
that overestimate of last year.
Had the legislature confined its ap-
preparations to the treasurer's estimate
the state would have pulled through.
As it is, Mr.. Kenehan Is determined to

ments as Chief Business
HAS SPLENDID Offer

The people of this community have
taken more than ord mary interest IN
the publicity work done for the west
ern slope the past few years by Ere
G. Shatfer and many have been the
expressions of regret at the news that
Mr.. Shaffer was about to sever his re-
lations with the city of Grand June
tion from whom he now draws a salary
as publicity agent-and earns every
cent of it, too,
Since the report gained currency that
Mr.. Shaffer was to transfer his activI-
ties to another field there has been
considerable speculation as to where
he was going and what he was to do.
The Grand Junction Sentinel of last
Wednesday explains Mr.. Shaffer's in
tentions in the following article:
Fred G. Shaffer will open offices the
first of next week in the McPhee
building in Denver as an advertisement
writer. He will establish his old bust
ness of commercial adsmith,n as he
puts it, preparing publicity copy for
some of the biggest and best mercan
tile establishments of the capital city
In connection with this vocation Mr..
Shaffer will run weekly newspaper
at Hudson, Colo, 30 miles east of Den
yer, on the Burlington. He has been
offered some exceptional inducements
by the people of this thriving little
city to act as secretary of their com
mercial club and run their newspaper
The operation of his Denver Office
VIII be entirely separate from his ttud
son business, although he will live in
the latter city. He finds his new work
holds considerable greater financial
inducement than his work with the city
and chamber of commerce of Grand
Junction offers and it is natural that
he should accept the new employment
There is a genuine feeling of regret
among all the people who have the best
interests of the city at heart that Mr.
Shaffer is to leave Grand Junction at
this time. There is hardly time of
the year when need for strong ex-
ecutive head to public undertakings
is more sorely needed than at this
luncture. but the advantages offered
by his business in Denver and Hudson
were too alluring to justify his r..
naming in this city.
81 have the most cordial feeling for
Grand Junction. said Mr.. Shaffer this
morning. "I have made some friend
ships here which I value very highly
1 have enjoyed my work with GranI
Junction people and it is no dissats-
faction with local people or local con
ditions that prompts me to leave the
city at this time. I am simply better

keep in the clear. Sometime the peo-
pie of the state will adopt bond issue
sufficiently large to with the daily col
lections run the affairs of the state for
two years on a cash basis. Then they
will adopt constitutional amendment
preventing any assembly from appro-
priating more money than is in the
treasury when the assembly is in ses-
sion, which would solve the question.
The best way to solve it under present
conditions is to elect republican bust
ness men to the state offices and to the
legislature who will not overappropri-
ate these estimates and who will not
double the payroll of the state in less
than three years.
Reports from Washington show that
Senator Guggenheim has secured the
recommendation by the agricultural
committee of the senate of two amend
ments to the appropriation bill which
will be of immense benefit to Colorado.
The first amendment provides for an
appropriation of $4,000 to investigate
alfalfa weevil and $4,000 to conduct
Investigations on sugar beet diseases.
The second amendment secures 25 per
cent of all products from forest re.
serves to be used exclusively for the
construction and maintenance of roads
in the forest reserves. This in aidi.
tion to the 25 per cent now secured
for road and school purposes. If these
amendments are finally adopted it
means total of so per cent Of all the
money raised through the forest re-
serves win be returned to benefit the
state. ~

IN THE DISTRICT COURT

Judge Shumate this week cleaned
up much of the business that has been
hanging fire in his court for some time.
The most important matter, perhaps,
was pronouncing sentence upon the four
Italians who were recently convicted
by jury of the double crime of bur.
glary and larceny.
In pronouncing sentence Judge
Shumate declared his belief in the
wisdom of the jury in finding them
guilty and then sentenced Gnalia and
Blonde to frsm one year to eighteen
months in the penitentiary on each
county, making a total sentence of
three years in each case, and gave
Crocko from 18 months to two years
on each charge.
Judge Noonan, in behalf of Gnalia
and Crocko, plead for his clients and
especially for their families whom he
declared would be left helpless with
out the bread winners and he asked
that the sentences be made concurrent,
which amounted to cutting the SEN
tences in two. Judge Shumate well
said that the defendants should them
selves have thought Of their families
before committing the crime, but after
taking day to think the matter over
and consult some authorities he con-
sented to withhold the mittimus
against the three men ON the second
count and later he gave Manzo the
same sentence as Crocko and made the
same order. None of the men we're
sentenced to hard labor.
On an information fled by District
Attorney Gentry, Stewart 2. Schenck
was arrested in Denver and brought 20
Glenwood early this week, charged
with embezzlement from the Union
Trading company while serving as gen
eral manager Of the company. Mr..
Schenck denied any wrong doing and
gave bond for his appearance at the
November term Of court in the sum Of
$4,000.
"0SSooy mUtAou WAS ueArO N
the case of David Givens against sew
eral of the citizens of Divide creek and
Garfield county. Attorney G. W. Tay-
lor presented the motion to require
Givens to furnish bond for costs be.
fore the case be allowed to proceed.
Alex JOB was placed ON the stand
and he testified that Givens was an un.
mitigated nuisance Of the very worst
type that had ever cursed the Divide
creek community and said his princi-
pal business while in Gas6eld county,
aside from working and imposing upon
every one he met, was to cause trouble
or try to cause trouble with some very
respectable citizens.
| He declared Givens unreliable, un-
truthful, irresponsible, a deadbeat and
| general nuisance and intimated that ;f
there was anything worse than all
these, Givens was that, too, and then
some.
After Job and F. L. Adams had tes.
titled, Judge Shumate entered an order
that Givens be required to furnish .

SET PLAYER TO THINKING
Probably He Was Right In Consider.
Ing the Game Of Chess a Good
Deal Like Life.

When a young man I was fond OF
playing chess. One day as was de-
liberating over a move in the middle
Of a game I suddenly asked myself
whether an expert standing beside me
could predict what that move would
be. Not. l saw. unless had a past
history as a chess player with which
he was familiar. II were beginner
he could not tell whether l would ad.
vance pawn three squares, or move
a castle aslant. or expose my queen
to capture.
All these. and multitude OF other
possibilities would be open to me and
therefore to his prediction. But II I
had a knowledge OF the game, these
possibilities would be closed And II I
were an accomplished player the ex.
pert at my elbow might whisper to
his neighbor. There Is only one move
he can make. He must attack his op
ponent's king with his black bishop"
AS then. without hearing the re-
mark, proceed to make that move.
