Grazing Measure Delayed.

Observation-Disclosures for lively
contention between the forestry bu
reau and the Interior Department as
to which shall be selected to admin
lister the provisions OF national graz
ing law, should one be passed, prom
lse a situation Of interest to the peo
pie OF the West. Incidentally this sit

ment Of the Lever grazing bill, or any
similar measure.
Secretary Fisher told the House
committee his department was best
adapted to administer public graz
Ing law. while former Forester Pin,

MIR. Harry Maddox and the
Fourth of July Celebration

To Mr. Harry Maddox is due much
credit for the successful Fourth uf
July celebration yesterday.
Mr.. Maddox has always contended.
at least for some years. that Canon
City should have a Fourth celebration.
The object being to keep a lot o.
money at home which usually goes
away.
Many have felt that as long as Cam
on City had the big county fair 1t was
hardly worth the effort to get up a
big Fourth celebration also. But this
year the fair will probably not be held
so the Fourth celebration came In
just right.
The credit is also due Mr. Maddox
for getting the U. s. soldiers here for
the Fourth and these soldiers reaiy
had great deal TO do with making

the celebration the success II was.
The soldiers were scheduled by an
other route. The Itinerary was pub
lished and contracts for supplies let
Mr.. Maddox read OF II in the press
dispatches and straight way got busy.
He saw that the soldiers would be a
big attraction for Canon City's Fourth
celebration. He visited the camp
near Denver. met the authorities in
charge and convinced them that the
route by tie way OF Canon City was
best And in the end the soldiers
came this way and enjoyed the day
with Canon City oec-,le.
All OF this Is mentioned. not to laud
Mr.. Maddox, but merely TO show the
wisdom of having on the towns pay

A TIP TO INVESTORS

Somebody could make a good thing
by putting Stanley Steamer in Can
on City for tourist and commercial
business.
Ruring the summer season ii would
be kept busy going over the Skyline.
up to the top of the Gorge and to the
swimming pool.
Tourists who come alone direct to
Canon City at the present time have
a hard time and pay more to get to the
top of the Gorge than does the lone
tourist In Colorado Springs.
The Canon City record with which is consolidated the Canon City cannon., 1912-07-11

daily trip TO the top OF the Gorge
at dollar and a quarter or dollar and
half would be a winner and would
attract many residents as well as
tourists.
In the winter time the Steamer
might do a thriving business running
between the Camps, Florence, the
Pool. etc.
There is an opening right now for
the man who will put about as much
money into commercial Steamer as
each one of about nifty Canon City peo-
pie now have In pleasure automobiles.
