The Eats of Colorado

From tHe DtflNtf iiIlts
 Colorado as the paradise of the epicure has never been accorded full justice. She is not only the playground of the nation but the picnic ground, overrunning with profusion of palate-pleas sing products calculated to restore the sluggish appe- tite even as her magic sun and air re- store lost health. Were all other means to fail she could win her way to the hearts of men through their stomachs.
 Who has not heard of her Melon Day at Rocky Ford: and who, having enjoyed one, has not made every effort to re- turn annually to the feast? Her Straw berry Day at Glenwood Springs. Some one has said that the people of the earth are divided into two classes--those who can eat strawberries and those who can't But only those who can and do eat Colorado strawberries have a right to say that they have lived.
 Consider. too. the tickling temptations of Plattevilles Pickle Day; what an ire sstible attraction for the growing girl with the fantastic appetite. and Fries Biscuit Day, and Fort Collins's Lamb Day, and Longmont' Pumpkin Pie Day. and Fort I.upton's Tomato Day. and Loveland's Corn Day, and Greeley's Po- tato Day--what other state in the union can offer such a astronomical gantlet for the editication of eager eaters? It is way Colorado has of exemplifying her hospitality. inviting al lthe world to come in and share her good things with her that others may partake of her bounties.
 Yet these are but few of the epicu- rean events which Colorado spreads before mankind. Grand Junction, Delta. Mon trose, Canon City. Brighton and countless other fruit and agricultural centers play the host each year to thousands. There Is hardly a community in the state which does not at some time between spring and fall ring the dinner bell for the universe to hear.

RAILROAD DEAL BLOCKED
By New York Public Service Commission
by Denying Application.

Albany n. ", April 1.-The applica
ton of the New York Central & Hudson
River Railroad company to acquire ma
! jority of the stock of the New York
Ontario & Western Railroad company
was denied yesterday by The public serv
ice commission. The majority stock il
now owned by the New York. New Ita
ven & Hartford Railroad company. Their
is pending before the commission al
application of the New Haven for per
mission TO acquire a majority of th'
stock of the Rutland Railroad company
/ now owned by the New York Central
! The applications We're opposed by th'
minority stockholders of the Ontario +
/ Western and the Rutland.
! The New York Central contended that
] the acquisition Of the Ontario & West
ern would give it an entrance into tho
anthracite coal fields Of Pennsylvania
as well as additional facilities for trans
portation out of New York City. The
| reasons for the denial as given by the
commission are:
mo transfer of bare majority inter.
est from the New Haven to the Central
should be permitted without reasonably
guarding the minority from possible OPP
preston by the majority interest. M
means are apparent by which this can
be done except by imposing as a condi-
ton of the authorization that the Cen
trail shall take over such Of the minority
stock as may be offered it upon the same
terms per share as it pays the New Haven
If the minority stockholders awaited
themselves of this privilege, it would
make a purchase price to be paid by the
Central of substantially $26,000,000 and
involve an annual fixed charge for inter
est of substantially Sll500OO"
Unwilling to Impose Burden.
"The commission is unwilling to i'm
pose this burden upon the Central and
has had its attention called to no adyan-
tage which in its judgment would com.
pensate for the disadvantages involved
in such an investment.
''rhe continued successful development
OF the capabilities of the Ontario s.
Western requires close attention to and
careful study of traffic, operating and
financial conditions.
at is the clear judgment of the com
mission that the energies of the Central
and its credit and resources of every ma
ture should properly be devoted to the
public duties and burdens with which it
il now charged and to the urgently de.
manded solution of the numerous and
complicated problems pressing upon it in
connection with the proper growth and
development of its existing properties .
The New Haven owns % shares Of
the preferred stock and 20l 900 shares of
the common sock of the Ontario &
Western, while the Central owns only 10
shares of the preferred stock.
The Central asked for authorization to
purchase all of the stock owned by the
New Haven. agreeing to pay Sl3l0S,-
397 .62 by issuing its 50-year debenture
bonds for that amount, bearing 1888, 1872
interest, payable annually.
