As this notice was issued on March
4th and the meeting Of the stock
holders was held on March 4th, it may
be that the settlers will have to ac-
cept the scale as proposed by the gov
ernment, until the same can be
amended. This scale will make the
delinquent payment 50 per acre in
stead of Sc per acre. The report of
the stockholders meeting was report
ed at once but not in time to stop this
public notice, and it is taken for
granted that the scale as proposed by
the government for the graduation of
the water right payments will be in
cluded in this public notice. This,
however, the stockholders can have
amended before the next water right
payment is due. At an adjourned
meeting of the board of directors of
the association the board extended all
payments of assessment until after
April /, 1912 This will allow every
stockholder to vote at the annual
meeting which will be held March
30th at the Skinner hall at 2 o'clock

election of the board of directors for
the ensuing year.

4 business proposition. ID. W.
Aupperlc, as secretary, WAS
PAID FOR HIS SERVICES,
AND PAID WELL, WHEN
IT IS CONSIDERED THAT
THE DUTIES OF THE OF
FICE DID NOT REQUIRE
MORE THAN \ PART OF
HIS TIME. He HAD PLEN-
TY OF TIME TO LOOK AT
TER OTHER PRIVATE IN
TERESTS. THERE WAS
NO DONATION OF SER
VICES ON THE PART OF
MIR. AUPPERLE.
Occasionally Mr.. Aupperlc
made trips to Washington, and
IN EVERY INSTANCE HIS
EXPENSES WERE PAID BY
THE WATER USERS ASSO-
CITATION, AND HIS SAL
AIRY ALSO PAID.
All this time MIR. Aupperlc
was buying up High Line land
at low figures, for, as a man of
shrewd business judgment, he
recognized that this then cheap
land would increase in value
many times over if this canal was
built, and he proposed to con-
stantly increase his acreage,
work on salary paid by the Wat
er Users Association to bring
about the building of the canal
and thus make snug fortune
off the lands he had bought so
cheaply. NEVER AT ANY
TIME WAS HE AT HIS
OWN EXPENSE; NEVER
AT ANY TIME WAS HE
DISlNTERESTED IN THE
WORK OR HIS EFFORTS,
FOR HIS SALARY AND EN-
PENSES WERE PAID AND
THE BIG LAND HOLD
INGS WOULD BRING HIM
A FORTUNE IF THE CA
NAL SHOULD BE BUILT.
Now as to that mere pit
tance' of salary: He drew
good many hundreds of dollars
from the Chamber of Commerce
and as secretary he devoted his
time PRINCIPALLY TO
THE HIGH LINE. Then he
went on the salary roll Of the
Water Users Association. Any
StoCkholdcr who attended the an
nual meetings or the directors
meetings in those first years that
AuppcrIe was secretary will tell
you of the salary vouchers and
expense vouchers paid him. He
was given a comfortable salary
every month. Frequently his sal
airy was behind; but sooner or
later it was always paid him. In
1907 and the first half Of 1908
he drew, we understand, SIS per
month, or $3.50 for that peri
cd.
ON AUGUST 10, 1910,
MR.. AUPPERLE (WHO
HIS NEWSPAPER CLAIMS
WORKED AT HIS OWN
EXPENSE MOST OF THE
TIME AND AT A MERE
PITTANCE AT OTHER
TIMES) WAS PAID BY
THE GRAND VALLEY
WATER USERS ASSOCIA-
TION THE NEAT SUM OF
$3,277 IN ONE CHECK,
AND THE MINUTES OF
THE ASSOCIATION, AS
READ AT THE ANNUAL
MEETING IN 1911 AND AS
THE RECORDS OF THE
ASSOCIATIONWILLSHOW
SET FORTH THAT THIS
BIG SUM PAID MIR. AUP-
PERLE AT ONE TINE WAS
FOR THE FOLLOWING
SERVICES:
SALARY FROM
JULY Is, 1908,
TO FEBRUARY
The daily sentinel., 1912-10-28

January 80, 1911, thus adding
another 5000.
DURING THIS TIME
SOME OF THE STOCK
HOLDERS IN THE ASSOCI-
ALTON WERE COMPLAIN
ING ABOUT THE HIGH
SALARY PAID MR.. AUP-
PERLE, ON THE GROUND
THAT THE WORK DID
NOT REQUIRE ANY
WHERE NEAR ALL OF
HIS TINE EACH DAY,
AND THAT THE SALARY
WAS a BURDEN ON THE
LANDHOLDERS AND THE
HOMESTEADERS WHO
WERE HAVING TO PAY
ALL THESE EXPENSES BY
ASSESSMENT.
As result, in January, 1911,
the board passed resolution re-
ducing his salary for the first six
months of 1911 to $25 per
month, the lowest it had ever
been. MIR. Aupperle GREAT
LG objected to this reduction /;
and, with himself holding and
voting a majority of the stock
of the association at the next an
nual meeting, SOME CHANG
ES WERE MADE IN THE
DIRECTORATE.
The association is now indcbt-
ed to Mr.. Aupperle on salary
account for the past year, Mr..
AupPerle agreeing, owing to a
lack of funds in the association
treasury, to await until assess
mcnt collections were made again
before filing and collecting his
bill; and it is expected that this
settlement will be made with him
within the next few months.
AT NO TIME HAS THE
ASSOCIATION UNDER
STOOD THAT MIR. AUP-
PERLE WAS DONATING
SERVICES OR MONEY,
AND AT NO TIME HAS HE
DONE SUCH A THING.
The trips to Washington last
year and this year have been pro-
vided for by the Grand Valley
Water Users Association, AND
NOT ONE OF THEM HAS
BEEN AT MIR. AUPPER-

lie HAS BEEN PAID FROM
SIX THOUSAND TO SEW
EN- THOUSAND DOLLARS
FOR HIS SERVICES IN
CONNECTION WITH THE
BRINGING ABOUT OF
CONSTRUC-
TION WORK ON THE
HIGH LINE CANAL.
All this time he has had the
interest embodied in the
fact that, if the canal could be
started, THE LAND HE
HAD SECURED UNDER IT
WOULD MAKE HIM \
RICH MAN.
All this period he had ample
time to attend to other private
business interests, being free from
constant or arduous work or con

hours.

IN THE LOCAL MORNING
PAPER THIS WEEK.

PAPER THIS WEEK.
And then, following this set
ting of the Auppcrlc campaign
stage, the series of editorials in
the Aupperle paper started and
the declaration made that Mr..
Aupperle should be elected coun-
ty treasurer as a richly deserved
reward for UNSELFISH and
UNPAID FOR services in be
half of the people.
The Sentinel desires to rob
Mr. Aupperle of no credit that
is Justly due him; but, on the
other hand, we do not propose
to permit him to claim credit that
is not due him and to make a
campaign on false representa-
tons.
In a lengthy editorial on Sat
urday morning demanding the
election of Mr.. Aupperle, the
local morning paper said in part:
During all this time (sevcn
yearS) his services have been
largely gratuitouS. For a period,
it is true, he received 4 hypothct-
ical salary as secretary of the
Chamber of Commerce, which
was generally in arrears, and he
has for a number of years acted
! as secretary of the Grand Valley
Water Users Association. In
this work it was his own personal
credit, with the credit of his
friends, that paid the expenses
of the long campaign for work
on the High Line. 4 He
was in Washington during the
entire period, working in the in
tercst of the High Line canal
'AT HIS OWN EXPENSE
when the assemblies and primar-
les were held. + = His
friends in Grand Junction and
in the Grand valley believe that
the character of service that he
had so unselfishly extended to
all people of the valley during
the last seven Years should be
recognized by the people in
substantial way"
In another long editorial along
the same line yesterday morning,
this statement appears:
at should be borne in mind
also that, when he (Aupperlc)
received any salary at all, it was
a mere pittance, and that for Il
considerable portion of the time
he has received none at all. "
The books and records of the
Grand Valley Water Users As
sociation will show that D. w.
AUPPERLE HAS BEEN ON
A SALARY AT ALL TIMES,
AND THAT THIS SALARY
HAS AVERAGED A MOST
DESIRABLE INCOME.
Let us see how Mr.. Aupperlc
"has paid his own expenses,
worked unseIfishly" and what
that mere pittance" of a salary
looked like.
Mr.. AupperIc came to Grand
Junction some seven or eight
years ago. He asked that the
community build canning plant
for him, or give him a handsome
bonus and he would build one.
This plan failed. Not long af-
terward, or about seven years
ago, he became secretary of the
Chamber of Commerce. He
drew a salary Of from SIS to
500 a month regularly. He be-
gan buying land under the High
Line project at S., $40 and SIS
per acre.
He joined the Water Users
Association, which had been or
ganized several years before. He
