and Beginning Fresh Start
on the Books

The county of Weld has cleaned
the slate and started fresh so far as
its bookkeeping system is concern
ed Tuesday a final report was
made to the county commissioners
by A. p Smithers, the expert ac-
countant, who has been working on
the books for more than a year and
who furnished much valuable infor-
nation to the grand jury that in
dicted Commissioners DeVinny and
Bolander
The report includes the books of
the county commissioners the
county clerk, the sheriff, and clerk
of the district court and the county
court. These books are all straight
ened out to July |, 1912, and all
should be plain sailing in the future,
as a simple and complete system has
been installed in the various offices.
An audit of the county books by
an expert from outside the county
has been suggested as a good means
of keeping check in the future.
When the corruption in the county
was discovered the bookkeeping was
in such a deplorable state that il
was hard TOR even an expert TO get
head or tail out of them.

But very interesting thing has
come TO light. That is not, in fact
me way the government has been
administered in our time. II has
been in the hands Of self appointed
trustees, and the partners have
seldom been allowed a real govern
ing voice in its administration.
We have supposed that we we're
conducting the national business
along the lines laid down by Jelfer-
son, but We find that as a matter or
iaet, we have been conducting it
along the lines laid down by Hamil-
ton, Hamilton believed that the
common run OF men had little quail
hcation for such business and that
II could be really comprehended and
wisely directed only by those who
led in commercial and Industrial en-
terprises and owned the chief bod
les of property in the country. And
in our time the leaders of the re-
publican party have consciously or
unconsciously adopted his notion.
These men financed party cam
paigns and We're always on the in
side when party policy was to be
determined, Tariff schedules, the
foreign policy of the country the
chief expenditures of the govern
ment, everything went as they sug-
gested, while the rank and file OF
us Jared as we might and were
happy If We had any small share IN
the prosperity which they organized
Ior themselves. ...
They We're the trustees, we were
their wards and took part in the
common life as they planned and di-
rected. What went on in the trus-
tee meetings we We're very seldom
allowed TO learn-learned indeed
only by impertinent inquiry, only by
congressional investigation or trials
in court which the trustees com
planned sadly interfered with the
regul.r course of business.

GREELEY
SCHOOLS
RESUME
WILL SHOW IN
CREASE OVER LAST YEAR
TEACHERS ADDED TO FACUI~
TY-BUILDING NOT READY

Vacation is over for the students
of Greeley, The public schools, the
high school, the training school OF
the Teachers college and the State
Teachers college all opened Tuesday
for the fall term.
The school bells rang at $40
O'Clock this morning and children
were seen vending their way to the
school buildings. There were tiny
tots daintily attired, little girls in
stiffly starched gingham dresses,
little boys with smoothly brushed
hair and shining faces and hands
which showed evidences of recent
scrubbing, big boys with caps set
iauntily on the back of their heads
and big girls in light, summery
gowns.
The students of the Teachers col
lege are pouring in on every train.
Many came early and were located
and ready for registration early this
morning, while others enjoyed their
vacations until the last minute, ar
riving this morning or afternoon.
Today was given over to registra-
ton and getting things in running
order at all of the schools and to-
morrow work will begin in earnest.
1t is thought that registration
will exceed that of previous years in
all of the schools,
Ten new teachers have been en-
ployed for the public schools A
number of changes have been made
in the faculty at the college.
The Greeley high school will open
in the old building, which will be
occupied until the completion of the
new high school building, in -four
or six weeks. The old building will
| then be used for the grades, which
are crowded and much in need OF
more room.

GOV. WILSON TELLS FARMERS
They ARE ONES PLUNDERED BY
REPUBLICAN PAMPERED TRUSTS

Williams Grove, Pa, Aug. go
Colonel Roosevelt's analogy tnat the
benefits of the protective tarin sys-
TEN constituted prize money, OF
which too much was kept by the Of
iicers and too little distributed TO
the crew, was criticised By Governor
Wilson here yesterday He wanted
to know, in his speech before the
State Changers picnic, Just where
the prize money" came from, He
said the 'plunder" came from the
farmers who We're taxed too highly
by the tariff on agricultural imple-
ments.
The governor confined himself to
the tariff, and how it affected the
farmers, and drew attention to
President Taft's veto OF the farm
ers' free list bill.
Il dare say he was right from
his point OF view saiu Governor
Wilson, of President Taft, in this
connection, for he represented the
trustees and not the people.
The governor argued that the
government of the country had been
in control Of self constituted trus-
tees in the republican party. and
that it was time for the people to
obtain control OF their own govern
ment.
He said, in part:
'lt is strange that we should
have put off so long looking into
our government to see whether it
is, in fact, run according to the
rules We originally laid down for it,
but it is certain that We are now
looking into it very sharply, indeed
and without the least danger that
we shall be deceived again as to its
character. our idea Of il has been
from the first that 1t was a genuine
partnership, and that all were upon
one footing, and We're to share
alike.

CHUTE FOR
CATTLE AT
FAIR GATE
EXHIBITORS WILL FIND BET.
TER CONDITIONS FOR HAND
LING STOCK-FINE SHOWING
WILL BE MADE

owners of fine cattle who are
contemplating bringing exhibits to
the Weld county fair will be glad
to learn that this year there is to be
chute built just south of the main
entrance for convenience and safe
ty in unloading stock. A. NJ. Nc
Clenahan, superintendent of the cat
tie and dairy departments, was in
Denver recently and secured the
railway that such a chute Will be
installed. This is an Improvement
which has been badly needed, as
owners OF fine stock have felt here
tofore that some danger existed in
the unloading of cattle without the
convenience of chute.
In addition to the fine exhibits of
dairy stock that will be seen at the
fair there will be extensive exhibits
of dairy supplies and machinery.
The Interstate supply and Manu-
iacturing company OF Denver, who
claim to be the most extensive
handlers of dairy machinery in the
west, have promised Mr.. McClen-
ahan that they will exhibit a tull
line, in which dairymen will find
nearly every known equipment suit
able for use in the modern dairy.
Arrangements are now under
way to have the Union Pacific bring
carload Of cattle here, part of
which is TO be picked up at Fort
Lupton, and the remainder of the
load taken up at Platteyille. If this
can be arranged, and Mr.. McClen-
ahau thinks it can, it will give sew
eral stockmen in these two places
an opportunity of bringing exhibits
of dairy cattle, thing which they
would probably not do We're such an
arrangement not made, as neither
| place, it is understood, would have
enough animals of the exhibit class
| to justify taking a car. II this car
| load is added to those already as
sured there will be one grand dis
play of the best dairy stock in the
county, as the entry of splendid
| collection has already been assured.

Women Will All be Bald Some Day
Says Expert on Brain Development

tive study on the subject. that the
human race in the civilized parts OF
the world will have no hair in 800
years,
DR.. Wells is of the opinion that
many brilliant women OF today are
bald but for the wigs they wear be
cause it is the fashion to have hair.
Said Dr. Wells: Among the
lower classes in Mexico and South
America you find thick heads of
hair in every family. but among the
aristocrats the hair is generally thin
and inclined to badness,
statistics show that there are
more bald men in the United States
and France than in any other coun-
try. That is because the intellect OF
the American people and of the
French is developed to a higher
point. -,
"The time will come when bald
ness will be so predominant that the
fashions will change and it will be
the correct thing to be bald. lheh
women will discard wigs.

PURCELL-

IN COURT
LEGAL BATTLE MAY ENsuE
OVER REALTY HOLDINGS OF
j. }. PURCELL, DECLARED
MENTAL INCOMPETENT

A legal battle over the property
of James j. Purcell, who was re-
Gently examined asto his mental
competence In county court, may de-
velop unless some agreement is
reached out Of court. Purcell reach
ed Greeley Monday accompanied
by his brother Paul, who was ap-
pointed temporary guardian.
1t appear that following the ac-
ton of the court August 2l last the
Purcell brothers went to Denver
for a time Last Saturday they
were stopped at Palmer Lake by
sheriff MCAlee, who was informed
that they had purchased tickets for
California and we're then on their
way there. Notice was served on
them and they returned to Greeley
on request OF the sheriff.
The departure from the state was
resented, il is said, by Mrs. Pur-
cell who, 1t is alleged, declares that
an attempt is being made to get
hold of the property of J. J. Purcell.
Most of This property, she claims,
should go to her because a part OF
it was purchased with money pro-
vided by her father.
Much Interest is aroused in Gree
ley over the case, as the Purcells are
well known here is business, social
and church circles. Mr.. PurcelIs

pelled to give up his large business
