BUSCH NOW HAS MoFFAT ROAD

Confirmation of the report tha.
Adolphus Busch, the wealthy st. Louis
brewer, is to take large share in the
extension of the Moffat road was re.
ceived in Denver in letter from one
of Mr.. Busch's associates, who stated
that his interest in the road is the de
velopment of the asphalt and gilsonlte
beds which he owns in the eastern
part of Utah along the line of the pro-
posed extension, says the Denver Post.
With the company ''out of the
woods SO far as the notes bequeathed
to it by the Moffat regime are con
cerned, there is nothing to prevent the
immediate beginning of construction to
these fields, which, according to ex-
perts, will furnish freight traffic suffi-
cient to care for the interest on all the
bonds that might be needed to supply
the capital for the building of the line
to Salt Lake. The Busch holdings in
that section of Utah are said to be
even richer than those of the General
Asphalt company in the western part
of Rio Blanco county, Colorado. These
maintain a railroad which connects
with the Rio Grande at Mack, "a miles
distant, after surmOunting some of the
heaviest grades known to railroad en-
gineers in the mountain states.
The Utah fields are vastly larger
than those in Colorado, but are under
the disavantage of having no means Of
transportation. Mr.. Moffat planned to
reach them when his road was sent
westward from Steamboat Springs, but
because of his belief that he could
finance the road himself.

PLAN TO ENABLE ALL HOME
STEADERS TO GET IN IRRI-
CATION DISTRICTS

Senator Guggenheim has introduced
up Of land in irrigation districts pro-
vided for under the laws of states
heretofore there has been. no way for
public lands, or even those settled on
such lands, to assume any part of the
district indebtedness. The senator's
bill, which provides a way for over
coming this difficulty follows:
% Be it enacted by the senate and
house of representatives of the United
States of America in congress assem-
bled. That, whenever there shall be
included within the boundaries of any
irrigation district organized under the
laws of California, Colorado, Idaho,
Nebraska, or any other state or terri
tory which has or which shall hereafter
adopt laws to be approved by the see
rotary of the interior providing for
such irrigation districts, and public
arid lands susceptible of irrigation and
said district shall vote or shall have
voted bonds to provide funds for the
purpose of purchasing, extending, or
constructing irrigation works or reser-
voirs to irrigate the lands of such dis
tricts, the said public lands of such
district shall be subject only to home
stead entry and settlement of not ex-
ceeding eighty acres, and final proof
shall be conditioned on the reclamation
of all the said homestead tract irriga-
Bile by said irrigation works in addition
to the requirements of the present
homestead act; Provided, That such
final proof shall be made within one
year from and after the date of which
said irrigation works shall have been
completed and water available for II
rigation, shall have been provided for
the use of such homestead tract; Pro
vided further, That such final proof
shall include showing that the claim
ant has also paid to the treasurer of
the said irrigation district of the said
the said irrigation district an amount
equal to the total sum which would have
been levied in taxes for the use OF the
district chargeable if such homestead
tract had been taxable patented laid.
If such final proof be not made by said
date then the tract SO homesteaded
shall be offered subject to such charges
at public sale to the highest bidder for
cash who shall be qualified entryman
under the United States land laws, and
who shall assume and pay the amount

AUTOS DEVELOP INTEREST
IN GOOD ROADS

The best explanation of the immense
interest developed throughout the west
during the past two years in the con-
struction of good roads is found in The
record breaking number of automobiles
sold in this section of the country dur
ing that period. 1t is the owners If
automobiles who have been at the from.
in the good roads campaign, and the
number of automobile owners has been
increasing with almost unbelievable
rapidity in the west, especially in the
past twelve months.

treasurer thereof.
Sec. 2. That upon notification by
the register of the local United States
land office, in which the arid irrigation
district is located, the secretary of the
interior shall cause immediate examina-

Every candidate for state senator or
representative may sign one of two
pledges-one that he will vote for the
he will vote for his party choice. There
is nothing on the primary ballot to in
dicate whether candidate has been
selected by petition or an assembly.
The party organization is as fo!-

A man and woman must be elected
in each precinct as precinct committee
men. These committee men and wo-
men constitute the county committee.
The county committee, together with
the county candidates, elects its own
chairman and vice chairman and see

vice chairmen constitute the state and
state or district chairmen and vice
chairmen.
No assembly or convention can select
any committeeman or adopt any plat

ing of the candidates nominated at the
primary election for state senators and
representatives, the state candidates,

State Institutions Forced to Beg For
Their Appropriations Some De-
partments Closed
THIS IS DEMOCRATIC MIsRuLE

The finances of the state of Colorado
come as near being depleted as they
have ever been since territorial days.
With the total appropriations amount,
ing to nearly $4,OOO,OOO and the general
revenue barely exceeding $2,6O0,000,
the Shafroth administration is facing
crisis.
1t means that the treasury is short
nearly $l,500,000; that probably not a
single one of the five classes of appro-
priations can be fully paid, and that
not cent more of the last three classes
can be drawn on.
1t means furthermore that the state
educational institutions, which are in
the third class, cannot receive more
funds for maintenance. They will face
the necessity of closing shop or run
ming on credit until the next general
assembly convenes. Thus far they have
received only per cent of the appro-
priations.
The first and second class appropria-
tions include salaries and general ex-
penses of state, and the state penal in
stitutions respectively. Neither of
these can be paid in full. The question
now confronting the Shafroth admin )
tration is that of suspending the sala-
ries of state officials and employees or
of ,liberating the inmates of penal in.
The Glenwood post., 1912-04-13

stitutions because of lack of funds
to maintain them.
One of the peculiar anomalies of the
whole affair is that only one state Of
fetal, Roady Kenehan, was aware of
the condition of the finances. Cover
nor Shafroth had not the slightest ink
ling of the appalling condition until
he was informed yesterday by Roady
kenehan.
The question resolves itself now into
the matter of cutting or stopping tenn
porarily the payment of salaries alto
gether or of slashing the maintenance
fund of the penal institutions. The first
expedient will undoubtedly result in
death blow to several of the depart
ments already on the verge of suspen-
sion.
The state board of immigration lacks
funds to carry on its work. The state
board of health has exhausted its ex-
pense fund and asks for a loan of
$4,000. The office of the secretary of
state wants $4,000 at once to conduct
the extra work imposed by the las.
general assembly in initiating new
bills and referring others.
The State School for the Deaf and
Blind yesterday asked the governor for
an additional $4,000. Practically al
the state colleges are clamoring for the
remainder of their appropriations.

areas, the location of tool boxes with
fire fighting equipment, the construc
ton of telephone communication, the
| construction Of fire lines and patrol
stations. The tool boxes should contain
l full equipment for fighting fire, sucn
as shovels, axes, mattOcks, canvass wa
| ter buckets, etc, also sacks or blankets
for back firing purposes. l think that
it can be truly stated that any criticism
would be due more to lack of prepara-
tion than to actual conduct in the time
pf fire, consequently the necessity for
Avery precaution before the critical
moment.
While in my opinion it is not neces-
sary or practicable to keep record of
all campers, yet it is well to make it
q point to caution all that we consist
| emily can regarding the danger of fire,
| and keep check on their movements TO
. like extent. During the dangerous
fire season, l think that patrol to
great extent should be given precedence
over routine work. A ranger can do
great amount of patrol work in connec-
tion with other work, but each portion
| of every forest should be looked after
regularly during the fire season. The
natural topography of some of the for
| ests makes it possible to establish n
station or two that would control the
greater part of those areas that are
quite removed from settlement and In,
general country more traversed by the
rangers, and in such eases | think this
patrol advisable during the fire season.
Trails should be constructed with
view as to their value for patrol routes,
on ridges and by or on observation
points as far as is practicable.
i would think it well to establish a
signal code system, and would like TO
see various signals submitted for con
sideration. A ranger should know the
forest type of his entire district, as ne
would then know just what part is most
susceptible to fire, and where the heav
lest losses might occur. The knowledge
of the various stands might figure large
ly as to the system of fighting the fire,
as i think that the commercial value
of the timber should be considered as
far fas possible.
rot believe. that any certain
patrol acreage may be properly allotted
to any one man, as the topography OF
the country must determine the area
that he can properly cover, and this Is
not sufficiently accurate from an out
line on paper. 1t has occurred to NE
that this knowledge of necessary patrol
may be obtained accurately by having
each ranger number each fire unit, des-
ignate it in such manner that the SUI
pervisor can readily identify the area,
and submit monthly reports during the
fire season, showing the dates that each
area has been looked after. By doing
this believe that the rangers will give
their districts a more uniform patrol,
and no area will be neglected for any
great period of time, where otherwise
it might.
| have touched upon but few OF
the things that are to be considered on
this question, and I trust that the dis
cusson will bring out many more points
that are of greater value.
