-EREsr ELHERT. ELRERT THE COUNTRY
A GREAT DECEMBER BLIZZARD.
The Worst at This Season of
the Year Since 1878.

From the stories being told by
the old timers of this community
Elbert county has experienced
the worst blizzard since the spring
of 1878.
The storm started on Monday,
December 1st, and by Thursday
noon snow had fallen to the depth
of three feet on the level. Thurs
day evening the blizzard started,
lifting the snow which had fallen
and piling it into drifts from ten
to twenty feet deep. All traffic
was suspended, there being no
way of getting into or out of the
town except on skis or snow
shoes. Railroad traffic was en-
tirely blocked, the first train to-
reach Ebert since last Thursday
was the next Thursday morning.
Several near by country peo-
pie came into town on snow shoes
Tuesday, and two others brought
in can of cream by driving a
bunch of horses ahead of them to
break a trail.
A large fore of men busted
themselves Tuesday shove.ling
trails across the streets so that
the town people could get to the
stores, post Office and bank, also
to accommodate the country peo-
Pile who might get into town.
Reports as to the damage to
live stock are meager and uncer-
tain. 1t is reported that John
Cook, living down on lower Bijou,
had 300 cattle in a pasture and
up until Wedney had not been
able to locate any Of them. 1t is
evident that the loss of stock
must. have been very great.
The storm was pretty general
over the entire state, being more
severe in some places than 9th
ers. In Denver traffic of all kinds
were completely blocked, the
wholesale houses unable to de
liver supplies to the stores in'the
residence sections, bread and milk
wagons unable to reach their Gus
toners, and the street cars were
tied up from Thursday until Sun
day.
This great fall of snow coming
at this season of the year when
the sun has but little power to
thaw means that we will likely
experience one of the most severe
winters that we have had in many
years. Fortunately the farmers
all raised bumper crops Of grain
and hay the past season and will
probably have plenty Of feed.

rates of all persons joining on and
after January l, 1914, would BE-
higher. In short, the entire
scheme was nothing more than a
raise of assessments after the
first of the year.
This brought forth such a storm
of protest from all camps in the
jurisdiction that the head officers
in order to be sure as to the le-
gality of secion 100a had suit
brought against them. The plain
tiffs appearing by Fred Farrar,
attorney general of the state.sof
Colorado, and the Head Camp
(defendants) appearing by Geo.
P. Steele, Esquire.
The court having heard the ar
guments of respective counsel and
having considered the case rem
dered the following decision:
First, that no part of section
100a, which includes the new table
of rates and known as class B,
will be enforced, and second, that
section 100 Of the old constitution
will govern the admission of new
members on and after January /,
