ing to Bring it to City
Of Grand Junction.
A MEETING TOMORROW NIGHT

The Iona canning factory may
move to Grand junction If the people
OF Iona do not show a disposition
to create "A sufficiently large acreage
10 justify its retention at that point
and as a result of an informal con-
ference held this morning. general
mass meeting of the citizens of the
city and county has been called to
meet at the city hall tomorrow even
ing at s o'clock
For the past several days Messrs..
Shoup and Sharer and the local man
ager, f. E. Quear. have been inter
viewing the growers of the lower val
ley and while considerable enthusi-
asm Is being shown in the PROPOSE
tion to keep the plant there, the la
Dor item, water supply and other
matters make Grand Junction seem
the more logical point for the es-
lishment of the factory.
Recently estimates were made on
removing the factory to Grand June
ton and this morning at the city hall
several members of the Chamber OF
Commerce. city commissioners and
newspapermen talked the matter over
with Mr.. Quear. In brief his state
ment was as follows:
Any action you may take here
will probably be contingent upon the
action of the meeting tonight in Lo-
ma. There are many reasons why
Grand Junction would be II more ia
vorable site, but if Iona Will guar
antee the acreage, to take care Of the
products, etc, we will probably keep
the plant there.
However, the proposition is this:
For site and building, the latter to
cost between $1,000 and $4,000 we
can move the plant up to this city
and will employ, during the tomato
season as high as $50 people and will
keep a large force fer at least six
months in the year. We Will need at
least 500 acres, but ! am assured
that any additional acreage Will be
taken care of. BY that | mean that
the plant will be enlarged TO take
on anything worth while evapara-
tor milk condensing plant and all
the various prod for canning.

CONTROL PRICES
OF SUGAR.

Associated Press.
Washington, Feb. Sugar. which
is universally consumed and taxed, is
subject to government control and
regulation as to price in almost ev-
cry country and to the varying trade
methods as well, so reported Secretary
OF State Knox, in letter to Presi-
dent Taft which was forwarded to
Congress today.
The letter is result of the request
of the Sugar trust investigating COM
mittee for foreign data. The letters
stated that Russia exercised an abb
solute control over the prices; Argen-
tine Republic fixes the price by law,
and other countries subject sugar to
high import duties to protect and de-
velop the domestic industry, with
secondary regard for revenues.

ANSWER FILED IN
4 DIVERSION
SUIT
Intermountain Water Company Lays
Claim to roo Second Feet of the
Grand River Water to go to
the Eastern Slope.

The Intermountain Water compa-
ny, otherwise the Henrylyn Irriga-
tion company. has filed with the
United States district attorneys Of
see in Denver a detailed answer to
tie Suit filed by the Grand Valley
Irrigation company which seeks to
prevent the diversion of the waters
from the Grand river to the water
shed of the South Platte on the east
ern slope.
This is the well known and impor-
tant suit to take the Grand river wa
ters from improper diversion to the
eastern slope.
Some weeks ago District Attorney
Ethelbert Ward filed a suggestion in
the suit which aroused the ire of the
Denver Post and other interested peo-
pie and was the basis of an attack
on the reclamation service and later
the High Line canal.
The government is interested in
the suit. in so far as it has offered
suggestions concerning water rights
on the Grand and colorado rivers and
seeks to protect the priorities of the
government in those streams.

DESCH SEATED
ON SCHOOL
BOARD
The Supreme Court Decision De-
CIdres Old Law UnCOnStitu-
tionaI and F. M. LittIejohn
Must ReIinQuiSh Seat as
Director on Board.
WILL SERVE THREE YEARS.

Telegraphic communication was re-
ceived in the city today that the
judgment of the district court in the
Desch-Littlejohn case was affirmed
by the supreme court.
1t will be remembered that at the
school election held May .. 1910, Mr..
F. NJ. Littlejohn filed his notice of
intention to be a candidate at the
said election more than eight days
prior to the election; that Mr.. Moses
+. Hale, retiring directora likewise
filed his notice of intention to be a
candidate; that about two days be
fore the election Mr.. Hale withdrew
his candidacy. leaving Mr. Littlejohn
the only person who had filed notice
of his intention TO be candidate.
A large number of the electors of
the school district were opposed to
MIR. Littlejohn's candidacy, but as the
school law of | S9l had a provision in
it that no persons other than those
who had filed notice of their inten-
tion to be candidate could be voted
for they were in quandary as to
what to do about it, Messrs. Fry
& Welsh advised a number of them
that in their opinion this law was un-
constitutional and that if another
candidate was voted for and received
a majority of the votes cast, the
courts would hold the law unconsti-
tutional and give the office to the
person receiving the majority of the
votes. Acting upon this advice a
number of persons put forward Mr..
Desch as a candidate for school di-
rector. On the day of election a
large number of votes were cast and
when they were counted il was found
that Mr. Desch had received 677
votes and Mr.. Littlejohn had received
G03 votes The school board acting
upon the law as authority seated Mr.,
Littlejohn for the reason that Mr..
Desch had not filed written notice
of his intention to be candidate.
Immediately there afterwards the
people of the state of Colorado by r..
NJ. Logan. district attorney, upon the
relation of MIR. Desch brought an ac-
tion in the district court to oust Mr..
Littlejohn and 10 have MIR. Desch
declared the duly and legally elected
