AMMONS COUNTY
TO Be ISSUE IN
NEXT CAMPAIGN
Race For Representative VIII
Hinge on Loyalty 10 Division
Of Mesa County.

The big issue in the next county
campaign will be the proposed cre-
alton of Ammons county. While the
storm center of the fight will be
moved over the election of a state
senator and representative, the lat
ter to succeed Uncle Avery Newton.
the fight will be carried to every
office in the county, according to Il
well known Fruita politician who is
here today.
The defeat of county division in
the last legislature was not by any
means satisfactory to the people Of
the lower end of the county. nor did
they regard the action of the solons
as final. They propose to bring t
up again next fall at the regular
election and even now are fixing up
their fences with view of making
a tremendous fight to elect repre-
sentatives to the legislature who will
work for the passage of the bill.
The identity of the two candidates
who are being groomed from that end
of the county is being kept as secret
as possible. Nj. N. Due. editor of
the Mesa County Mail, is believed to
be one of the men who is to be a
candidate, although he will not ad-
nit the fact. Ii was declared today
that the losing candidate in the Frui-
ia postoffice fight might be one Of
the candidates, although there is no
confirmation to this statement either.
Mr.. Newton, it is understood, will
not again be candidate for repre-
sentative, and the Fruita people in
tend to center their attack on his
successor.

FRUIT GROWERS TO
MEET IN JANUARY
A Convention Of Western Slope
0rChardisis 10 be Held
Here Soon.
----

A meeting of all fruit growers or
the Western Slope will be called in
Grand Junction next month, at which
time the first step in the organiZa-
tion of state horticultural society
will be taken.
Frof. B. p Sandsten of the State
Agricultural College has advised To-
cal growers that a meeting Will soon
be called in order that the growers
might be united in making requests
for appropriations from the state les
islature, and in furthering the hor-
ticultural interests of Colorado gen
orally.
III his letter Prof, Sandsten says;
"The horticultural interests of the
state are suffering sadly from lack OF
interest, not only among the grow
ers. but among the state people in
general, but this can only be RENE
died by organized effort, and | had
hoped that an organization like a
horticultural society would have in
fluence sufficient, after it has be-
come we'll started, to make demands
upon the state for consideration for
horticultural betterment and this is
one of the ideas that | had in mind
in reviewing the interests and unit
ing the trult growers SO tHdt "Heh
they demand consideration they viii

forts that we can command the at
tention of our legislature. ! SHAH
certainly call upon you to be present
at our first meeting, which undoubt-
edly will be called some time in jan
uary or February at Grand Junction
or some other central point on the
Western Slope. | feel that we have
to make a start where fruit growing
is paramount and where we can get
the fruit growers together and instil
some life into the subject. An or
ganization for the eastern part of the
state would not be much good for
the Western Slope, but we hope to
unite the two sections and hold the
meetings twice a year, one on the
Western Slope and one on the east
ern, thus bringing the two sections
closer together and at the same time
equally represented in the society
seeing to 1t that both sections are
and that the interests of both sides
are equally served"

SL.OPE: LABOR
MEN OPPOSE !
WALK OUT

A general opposition to the state
wide strike has developed among the
unioniZed crafts all over western
Colorado, according to local leaders
who have been in touch with the sit
uation on this side of the range dur
ing the past two weeks.
Not only is there desire to see the
miners fight out their own struggle
but there is feeling that before any
other unions are asked to break their
contracts and join sympathetic
strike. the Wyoming coal miners
should be called out.
.'I.et the Wyoming men help their
own union first" is the slogan of
the local men who are determinedly
opposed to the efforts of the officers
of the state federation to join state
wide strike.
Tonight at the Trades and Labor
assembly meeting the matter will be
brought up, together with the propo-
sition of sending representatives to
the Denver meeting. 1t is believed
that several delegates will go from
this city II the financial matters can
be arranged The idea will be to give
the western slope genuine represen-
tation and an opportunity to oppose
the general walkout plan.
1t was declared today on good au-
thority that not a trades union in
western Colorado would instruct a
delegate to vote for the general walk
cut.

EMPLOYERS ASKED
TO HELP IN FIGHT
Manufacturers Are Requested to- Aid
the state Association Against
Tuberculosis.

Are you interested in the dollars
and cents side Of life?" This query
forms the basis for an appeal which is
being sent TO Indiana manufacturers
by the Indiana Association for the
Study and Prevention OF tuberculosis.
The letter has been addressed to
400 large employers Of labor, and is
signed by Prof. Burrage and Walter
ID. Thurber, the president and secre-
tary OF the association
The appeal is accompanied by a
financial statement which sets forth
the receipts and expenditures of the
association since the organization was
formed in 1911, down TO the present
time.
In brief the report shows that in
1911 the state association received
$4,63213 as a result of the sale of
seven thousand eight hundred twelve
Red Cross seals during that year
s7,81223 was retained by county asso-
Citations for the fight in local COM
munities. and s1.556.93 was sent to
the American Red Cross.
During last year the state society
expended $69O.17 for care of patients
at the lockwood sanatarium, 1890 for
office expenses, $513.06 for travelling
expenses, exhibit at state fair and mis-
cellaneous $227.02, printing $3.50,
and cash returned to county organiza-
! tions S1S6.15.
From the seals campaign in 1912,
the state association received only
| $1,7S5.S2 owing to the fact that more
county organizations had been formed
and under the rule that had been
| established, all of these retained rs
per cent of their total sale. The total
amount retained by the various local
! organizations was SS,329.33. The
| American Red Cross received ST.
