Although the attendance at the
weekly luncheons of the club have
been all that the most optimistic
could desire. there is still some who
do not understand the scope and in
tention of these get together dinners.
The idea was well expressed today
by T. NJ. Edwards, who has charge
of the luncheon: Every good citi-
zen in Grand Junction is member
of the Fifty Thousand club If he says
he is. There are no dues. member
ship fees or restrictions and every
body who feels the spirit move him
is automatically invited to go to the
luncheons."

FIGHT OUT AN OLD CASE.
Cattle Dipping Scrap Is Being Thresh-
ed Out Again.

GoodIand, Kan, Dec. ga case of
unusual Importance is now being tried
at an adjourned session of the district
court in this county. Some time in
1908 a farmer named James B. Moore,
living about 20 miles southwest of this
city was visited by a deputy live stock
inspector, Charles Wilson, and after
looking his cattle over the inspector
placed them under quarantine. To
this Mr.. Moore objected and the mat
ter finally found it's way into the court
where a restraining order was issued
prohibiting the inspector from dipping
the cattle. After several legal tits
the matter was dismissed and quaran-
tine released.
Mr. Moore then brought an action
for damages against John B. Baker,
state live stock inspector, at that time,
and his deputy, Charles Wilson. The
case was then tried at which time a
jury found in favor of the defendants.
The matter was appealed to the SUI
preme court and the latter court de-
cided that the state inspector had no
authority to appoint deputies, which
was a reversal of the instructions
given by the lower court.
The case is now being tried over
again. The amount of damages origin
ally asked by plaintiff was something
like $500, and in the present action
plaintiff has amended his petition and
is asking considerably larger damages.
Judge Langmade of the Seventeenth
judicial district is presiding.
Attorney Kaggey of Beloit and
Hartzler & Perdieu of this city repre-
sent the plaintiff, while the defendants
interests are represented by S. n.
Hawks of Stockton and E. F. Murphy
of this city. Joe Mercer, present state
live stock sanitary commissioner, and
Mr. Dean, United States government
inspector at Kansas City. No, stock
yards and several other noted expert
witnesses are attending court.

BURLINGTON HITS COMMON CUP.
Passengers and Patrons Must Furnish
Own Cup Hereafter.

Lincoln, Neb., Dec. 23.-In short time,
possibly in a few days, the common
drinking cup in Burlington depots and on
Burlington trains, will have been abolish
ed in Nebraska, in fact on all of the lines
west. Action of this sort has already
been taken on the lines east, a result of
a recent order issued by the secretary OF
the treasury. The order will become eff
fective on the lines west just as soon as
a supply of drinking cups can be placed
in the hands of agents of the road foI
sale.
Recently the Burlington in Nebraska
has furnished to the state board of health
a statement showing the sources of ice
water supply for drinking purposes in its
depots and its trains in Nebraska
States boards of several states have been
very active along this line and the COM
pany has been complying with requests
The effort to prevent the use of bacteria
laden, drinking water is responsible for
these requests.
1t was recently stated that the Burlirg-
ton had placed an inspector, a medical
practitioner the road to look after the
water and icing supply, to the end that
passengers and patrons of the road may
run no risk in using water furnished.

SOUTHERN PACIFIC BUY ORIENT
New Short Line Coast to Kansas City
Is Latest Rumor.


Los Angeles. Cal, Dec. 2S.-A new
short line to Kansas City from Los
! Angles is planned by the Southern Pa
cific, following its separation from the
Union Pacific. 1t will be accomplish
ed by taking over the Kansas City,
Mexico and Orient railroad, now in re-
ceiver'S hands, and completing its
construction into Kansas City. Con-
struction on the Orient road is now
being hurried to Alphine, Tex, where
a connection is made with the South
ern Pacific, 1877 miles from Los An
geles. The length of the new route
between Los Angeles and the Kansas
City gateway Will be about the same
as the route operated by the Santa Fe
and the Rock Island, but a saving in
time may be made by avoiding grades.
The Kansas City, Mexico and Orient
runs through a practically level coun-
try in Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas,
and the Southern Pacific to New Or
leans is the lowest in grade across the
mountains.
1t is understood that the Southern
Pacific also takes over the Kansas
City, Mexico and Orient road in MeXi-
co, thus increasing its strategic posi-
ton on the west by commanding the
entrance to the harbor of TopOlO bam-
pc. The road will open by a rich cat
tie country in Mexico and in Texas
and its surveys make it the shortest
line between Kansas City and the Pa
cific ocean.
