OF
CHILDREN
IN DANGER
REV. d. d. FORWARD DECLARES
THAT STREET CARS AND NO.
3 DITCH ARE CONSTANT MEN.
ACE TO LITTLE ONES OF CITY

"The Press" was honored by be-
ing the first subject chosen for the
open air union meetings of the
churches in Lincoln park during
July and August. While the news
papers came in for but little of the
subject matter in the principal ad-
dress, which was delivered by Rev.
d. d. Forward, there were some
comments made by the speaker, in
directly connected with the press,
that aroused comment.
After complimenting the local
papers ON being clean in their news
columns, Mr.. Forward said that
they were handicapped by not dar-
ing to print what he was about to
say. He referred to some remarks
that followed in effect that the
Greeley street car employees, motor
men particularly, were neglectful of
their duties, thereby exposing the
children of the city to the danger
of being run over, and that No. J
ditch, running through the city as
it does, is an open menace to all
children and that mothers will have
occasion to learn this to their sor-
row.
He said that the newspapers of
today were dominated by CONNER
cialism and could not publish if
this support were withdrawn, and
that of necessity did not dare to
print a great many things that
might be construed as offensive to
their heavy supporters. He cited
specific instances of where motor
man on car had left his post to
sweep the car and to retire inside
the car to converse with the con-
ductor. No. ditch, he said. had
been a potent factor in the up
building of Greeley. but that in its
present condition and location it is
menace to little children.
District Attorney Carlson presid-
ed at the meeting and was intro
duced by Rev. r. A. Chase, who
paid the district attorney glow
ing tribute as ap ublic officer. Mr..
Carlson talked briefly before intro
ducing Rev Forward and took oc-
casion to congratulate the people OF
Weld county on the leading news
papers of the county.

CALL OF
THE WILD
HAS COME
ROOSEVELT PARTY WILL CON.
VENE IN CHICAGO AUGUST s.
CLAIM THAT 40 STATES WILL
BE REPRESENTED AT MEET

New York, July S.-A call to the
people of the United States who are
in sympathy with the National
Progressive movement" to send
delegates to national convention
to open in Chicago August was
given out today by United States
Senator Joseph NJ. Dixon of Mon
tana, Theodore Roosevelt's cam
paign manager. The call is signed
by members of the committee chos-
en- at meeting in Chicago and also
bore signatures of Roosevelt toll
lowers in 40 states.
"The territories have no place IN
! national convention and will moi
be considered" declared Senator
Dixon in commenting upon the sig,
natures.
LAS for the missing eight states
most OF them probably will send
delegates, although they have not
taken part in the call. Maine. for
instance, postponed any definite ac-
tion because there is now a strong
fight on in the primaries, with the
sympathy running in favor of the
progressive movement.
Delaware, North Carolina, Ar
kansas and Nevada probably Will
take part in hte convention. Missis-
sippi and South Carolina may pos
sibly be unrepresented.
"The call lays down no rules as
the method of choosing delegates
since each state will be expected to
select it's delegates by its own para,
phernalia The representation will
be cut down to just one-half OF the
preyious conventions, which was
deemed advisable, since this CON
vention is to be notably a delibera-
tive body and will certainly be com
posed of a class of men altogether
different from those who usually at
| tend conventions.
I'm all probability the convention
will adopt the name National Pro,
gressive' for the new party, but
cannot say definitely what Will DC
done. Thus far no issues have beer
authoritatively stated and of course
the platform itself will have to DC
decided upon by the delegates.

DIES IN
CAUSE OF
SUFFRAGE
SARAH PLATT DECKER, FAMOUS
LEADER AMONG WOMEN, AD-
VOCATE OF EQUAL RIGHTS,
PASSES AWAY

San Francisco, July S. Mrs.
Sarah Sophia Platt Decker passed
away peacefully at $40 o'clock last
night at the Adler sanitarium after
four hours of Inconsistencies. At
the deathbed were her daughter.
Miss Harriet Platt of Denver, and
DR.. Cornelia De Bey of Chicago. A
week ago the fatal attack culminat-
ed several years of suffering from
complication of intestinal and kid
ney troubles, and death followed
an operation performed the latter
part of last week.
Eight hundred thousand club
women of the nation will mourn the
passing of this Denver woman, one
of the most remarkable figures in
women's work of the age.
For four years Mrs. Platt Decker
served as president of the General
Federation of Women's clubs. In
the last two years her progress in
political activities in Colorado as q
suffrage leader has placed her name
for serious contemplation as can
didate for congress from Colorado.
and her name has been proposed ~
the first woman candidate in recent
years for the presidency of the
United States.
For 20 years Mrs. Platte Decker
has been national figure in wom-
ans work. In philanthropic work
25 years ago Mrs. Platt Decker be-
came acquainted with the real con-
ditions of women in relation to pub
lie life. Her first lessons were
learned as to what womanhood
could do for the benefit of the ma
ton, through unity and through the
elevation to political equality with
men in public affairs. Her fight for
| suffrage began early.

FOR BERRIES

Ira Shortridge's strawberry patcn
of half an acre is still doing busi-
ness He picked 20 crates or 4S0
boxes Sunday. The previous Sunday
his pick was 80 crates. Not that
he picks them Sundays only. Pick
ing has gone on daily for three
weeks. until today. Now every other
day will take care of what is left.
Mr.. Shortridge. who farms 40
acres a miles west of the Auburn
dairy, has 700 currant bushes with
their load of fruit just beginning to
turn. and 800 dewberries that will
rake their first marketable crop
this season. So far, from half an
acre of Strawberries he has receiv-
ed $500 in cash this season. This
isn't all profit. however. He pays
2 cents a box for picking. and it
costs 500 an acre for cultivation
and planting each year. Last sea-
son Mr.. Shortridge lost most OF his
berry crop from water yortage.
just as they were beginning to ma
ture. This year he is fixed for 1t,
having put in a pumping plant of his
own.

CLOSE GAME WITH MILLIkEN

Windsor, July s.-By winning
OF II to 10 the Windsor slab artists
are leading the percentage column
OF the Weld County Base Ball
league with LaSalle as their side
kick. The boys from the bottoms
came up to the lake town to take
the home team down the line in
their first game scheduled in the
base ball league. Both of the twirl-
ers had an off day and, helped out
by the out and infield in making
errors, the game was minus the
sensational stuff. Milliken started
.c9~with rush and then could only
land bachelor runs in the third

looked bad for the locals when the

4 BIG AUCTION IN HASTINGS

The hustling city of Hastings has
taken on itself the responsibility of
Launching a big new business in this
state, a business the like of which has
never been attempted in this part of
the east before
On Saturday. the 10th, a new com
pany by the name of The Exchange &
Auction Company, will offer to the
highest bidder many mules, horses,
farming Implements, wagons and bug
gies, many hundred head of chickens
all sorts of tools. household goods of
all descriptions. being a general or
combination sale. This company has
large buildings, sheds and stock yards
in which to contain its stock for sale.
Carloads of goods are solicited all over
the state to go in this sale. which will
be conducted by an expert auctioneer.
While the goods are in stock awaiting
the sale anyone can exchange or
trade for what they want, but the sale
is to be held at least once a month.
This company aims to make this
point big trading place and to have
good stock in trade TO offer the people.
They will sell anything from a tooth
pick TO steam engine. The public
will be able to find any article wanted
at the sale and at their own price, for
everything will be sold. The auction

crowd is going to be in attendance and
the carloads of horses, mules, COWS and
chickens and a great quantity of other

This is a new and big business ven
ture and no doubt will be highly sue
cessful as hundreds of our new set

dollars worth of valuable property

will do we'll to attend this first sale
