had heard lot about Cobb and his

and refused to give him credit for ev-
erything that was claimed for him.
Besides that, our pitchers were Just
about right. and as they were paying
particular attention to Cobb, the Geor.

do anything. We were all tickled and
were giving Cobb the laugh at every
opportunity, all Of which made it

ADVISES MORE LIBERAL
LAND POLICY As A STEP
TOWARD BUILDING STATE

Denver, June l1.-State immigra-
tion Commissioner Paddock is inter
esting himself in the agitation of a
movement for a more liberal policy in
the consideration and disposition of
the state and federal lands of Colo
RADIO, and Will soon take the matter
up with the state land board. He
believes that, If such a method were
adopted, il WOULD result in more rap
idly building up the state.
So important is the matter that
more than likely both the democratic
and republican state conventions will
be asked to pass resolutions along
the lines being advocated by the i'm
migration commissioner.
Speaking of the matter, Commits
sioner Paddock said today that there
We're more than 100000 acres of
available lands under the Cary act
and about 100000 of state school
lands situated along the Moffat road
in the counties of Moffat, Routt and
Grand which would make homes and
ranches for hundreds of newcomers
who are seeking locations in this
state. With a more liberal policy in
the disposition of these lands there
would be an unprecedented influx of
homeseekers in these counties and
also in other counties of the state.
Progress, the commissioners says, is
being materially hindered, with con-
ditions as they now are and he hopes
to see the two political state parties
declare openly on this question. That
the conventions will be asked to re-
solve in the matter is practically as
sured. said Mr. Paddock.
There are large tracts of available
lands in both the San Luis valley and
Arkansas valley that would soon be
settled by thrifty class of people If
the state you'd only grant more lib
eral terms on the sale of these lands.

noUneed in The Sentinel exclusively
last night, three drainage experts are
already in the valley making the
preliminary plans for the scheme.
The proposed scheme is to be

Late Returns.

The latest returns obtainable
up to the time we 60 to press are
to the effect that Billiard has
won over Hodges and Jackson
for the Democratic nomination
for governor, and that Capper
has won over Ryan among the
Republican.
1t seems that Phil Campbell is
renominated for congress on the
Republican ticket and Brady on
the Democratic ticket.
The Teddy electors probably
carried the state over the Taft
fellows, and an official vote will
perhaps be necessary to deter
mine the fate of Curtis and Stubs.
The county victory is consider
ably mixed.

The Mines.

The ore market held well un-
til Friday, when there was a
tendency to lower prices all
along the line and the high base
price was lowered to $62.5O and
there was a much deeper cut iu'
to the second grades. The lat
ter class of ores sold quite heavi'
ly at $50 to Sol. There were a
good many lots that were settled
for on a base of $63.50, bought
last week or early this week.
The high settlement was 500.
Calamine ores were purchased
on a base of $29 to $32, with a
high settlement of $3.50.
Generally speaking, operators
were not greatly surprised at the
turn the market took, but they
combatted the decrease in offer
ings with all their might. That
they were successful for a large
part of the tonnage is evidenced
BY the fact that 80 snail a de-
crease was noted for first grades.
The fact that the smelter strike
came last week and that on FRI
day the spot spelter market was
not reported at all and only fu-
lures were quoted at $6.95, had
a tendency to depress the mar
ket.
There is a well-fOunded rumOr
that the disturbed conditions at
the shelters in Pittsburg is
spreading to other smelters in
the Oklahoma and Kansas belt.
How this will affect the situa-
ton is not now apparent, but
should this dissatisfaction ex-
press itself in actual strikes as
has already developed at the
Pittsburg Zinc Compauy's works,
there win be a cut in the produc-
.tion of spelter as we'll as a cut in
