FOSTERS FORECASTS

washington, d. c., Dec. 21.-The
last bulletin gave forecasts OF dis
turbance to cross the continent Dec.
90 to 81, warm wave Dec. 20 to 20,
cool wave Dec. 25 to 20. The cold
wave preceding this disturbance will
bring temperatures below the usual
average of low temperatures and the
warm IA will be moderately above
the average. Some rains and SHOWS
are expected but less than usually ac-
company such winter storms.
We are now able 10 make fairly
good forecasts, in a general outline
for the continents, giving-not in de-
tail, but in a general way-the Local
tons of excessive and deficient rain
fail, temperatures and severe storms.
In October we pHolished that precipi-
tation for this continent would be de-
hcient as al average of the five
months, beginning with November,
that temperatures would be above
the average, that in northern sections
of South America, on the Caribbean
sea and Gulf of Mexico rainfall would
be In excess. while in southern South
America rainfall would be deficient,
Also that the severe storms would oc-
cur In South America and the East
| Indies.
we did not mention our blizzards
but they may always be expected
when a hurricane enters the Caribbean
sea. That general forecast has proven,
so far, remarkably correct. It is be-
lieved that these general forecasts,
added to our local monthly and local
daily forecasts, will prove both inter-
esting and valuable.
The next disturbance will reach the
Pacific coast about Dec. rs, cross the
Pacific slope by the close of Dec. %,
the great central valleys Dec. 29 to
so, the eastern sections Dec. 81. Warm
wave viii cross the Pacific slope about
Dec. 20, the great central valleys Dec
/ rs, the eastern sections Dec. 80. Cool
wave will cross the Pacific slope

In the Labor World

printers OF the country in the union
there Is certainty of completion OF the

There is no such surety to be obtained
from non-union hril1g and the state ~
tree OF, the faint OF employing cheap
labor on its work and the state could
do much to aid in abolishing certain
kinds OF print shops that are TO the
printing trade what the sweat shops
are to the clothing trade,
This matter Is merely one Of the
state being able to make the provts~
ions under which its work shall be
done. This measure will insure cred-
table work being done, prolnptness OF
delivery and a job for which the state
oficers viii not need to apologize.
During tine past two years the state
has accepted and paid for work that Y
never should have accepted Or paid

when received made a bad showing
from as worklnan's point OF view.
The typographical union stands for

certainly a good showing and in the

that III appears to us to be a good time

GRAND JUNCTION is FIRST
IN MINING OWN COAL
Continued from Page IL

For the past year Representative
Taylor of Colorado has been confer
ring with the secretary of the inter-
ior on bill authorizing municipaII-
ties to purchase coal lands from the
government and operate them for
the benefit of their citizens. The
secretary has been ready from the
first to favor a measure authorizing
him to lease government coal prop
critics to municipalities, but the Colo
rado congressman has refused TO
consent to the lease plan and stout
ly contended for the city's right to
purchase the land outright, with the
right to not only mine coal for its
own use but to sell it to its citizens
at cost.
Secretary Fisher has been inclined
to the belief that this would be a
step too Socialistic in character to
be taken all at once, but has finally
agreed that if the city of Grand
Junction desires to purchase 500
acres of coal land for its own excm-
sive use, and not for the purpose or
selling to others, he will not stand in
the way If Congress consents. He is
even willing to waive the established

Mesa County COP.
In Triangular Spl t

Three republican politicians today
expressed themselves on the coming
county assembly and primaries and
on the state convention probabilities.
They are all nominally republicans,
and each has at various time partic-
ipated prominently in the councils of
the party.
These three statements form a tri-
angular view of republican politics
in Mesa county. 1t is comprehensive
and comprehensive:
Says one: Il am going to partic-
ipate in the county primary and as
sembly. That assembly will pass a
resolution pledging the support of the
county republicans to the republican
platform. That places us squarely as
republicans. We are going to Dem
yer as delegation shall be one
and we will probably get kicked
out. | will then come back home
and try again"
Says the second: 81 do not rec
ognize the county republican organi-
cation as representative OF national
republicanism. / expect to see grow
out of the proprosed Taft and Sher-
man club contesting delegation to
the state convention. We shall pledge
ourselves to the support Of the presi-
Dental and vice presidential nomi-
nees of our party, and think we Will
be seated as against any pseudo-re-
publican bunch sent up by the out
cast county organization"
Says the third: 81 am going to be
a delegate to the state convention of
progressives. | see no hope for the
expression of popular will in the state
republican organization, nor do l see
any hope for success in the county
program. | am going to go to the
Bull Moose convention and support
Roosevelt"

words of comfort and praise

None more true than these
few lines. A devoted husband

fond brother has gone from

love was sacred, and friendship
a holy tie.
To the bereaved ones. in their
sorrow we extend all love and
sympathy. The sweetest words
of comfort are these. Not
