The One-Day-In Seven rest bill
belose the state Legislature is re-
ceiving mach attention. The i'm
poss Of the measure rs, that when an
e.ployee labors on Sunday one full
dsy and rs many hours as shall con-
stitste weeks work, he shall be
given one day in each seven free
from labor.
Exceptions are made in favor Of
managers of departments, where
continuous supervision is necessary,
and in care of the sick, and domes-
tic help This measure is backed
by the Lords Day Alliance with
j. p, Hutchinson of Colorado
Springs general secretary of the
middle west district One day in
seven rest is the leading effort Of
the American association for Labor
Legislation and oil the Federation OF
Churches. 1t was in the platform
Of three political parties in the last
national campaign. A similar bill
is being considered by several other
staten.
Ii is argued that much OF the
labor employed ON the Sabbath is
unnecessary, that it deprives the
toiler of much needed rest, of social
fellowship of his home one day in
seven and of the opportunities Of
religious life and moral training Of
his children, also that more and bet
ter work can be done by one day in
seven free from toll.

The high school basket ball
team came back strong from their
defeat ct Salida, t~o weeks ago and
won two out Of the three games in
the Montrose- Gannison series PLAYED
here last Friday and Saturday In
the first game the score was 23 to 81
and in the second 22 to 80, both in
Gunnlsons favor. In the game
Saturday night Montrose won by
the score IL to 29 The games were
all fast from start to finish and
though the visitors out weighed the
local team fifteen pounds to the man
the Gunnison team made up in
skill what the Montrose team had in
weight.
After the game Saturday night q
reception was given at the Normal
in honor of the visitors.
The game with Paonia which was
planned for last Thursday night at
Gunnison was called off for the rea-
son that the school board of the
Paonia high school would not give
their consent to the trip.

o. Io1icaAisos Discovered n
Vel o. o. Cseek

What appeared to be oil indicat-
ions were discovered recently by
Mr.. c. n. Cornforth while he was
digging a well on his ranch about
seven miles north of this city and
Just ON the north side of Theo-
dore Davis ranch on Ohio Creek.
After sinking the well about eigh-
teen feet, he came to brown shale.
He bored into the shale with ch arn
drill, and soon found that the
"drillings were black and oily in
appearance, and resembled, as Mr..
Cornforth expressed it, axle grease.
When the water was struck it gave
forth very bad odor and had q
brown scum on the surface. Thi.
FIRST work was done some months
ago. After about . week the water
became good. This winter Mr..
Cornforth walled up the well and
drilled the hole little deeper, and
encountered the same conditions ..
has appeared before only that the
odor was stronger the last time that
any drilling was done.

The average auction price for all

The eighth annual National West
ern Stock show, which closed its
doors last Saturday night, has made
encouraging history for the live
stock industry in Colorado and the
packing industry and livestock mar
ket in Denver 1t was the most
successful stock show ever held in
Denver, and, in nearly every respect,
the best ever held west OF Chicago.
In many respects it was the greatest
in the world. The stockmen re-
ceived S2,600,OO0 in sales during
the week. The business men of
Denver have taken in perhaps
S2,OOO,0O0 from the visitors.
The Stockyards bank through
which nearly all the checks for the
sale of stock passed, handled during
the week in cash and securities,
chiefly certified checks, 81 100000.
That this is much greater than the
volumn Of business actually done at
the show is due to the fact that much
of the stock was sold twice and even
three and four times, the cash being
cleared through the bank ON each
transaction.
The actual paid attendance was
more than 1900 full tickets, the
largest by several thousand in the
history of the association.
Total carloads Of stock sold 136.

NEW JERSEY TO Be
HEADLESS z DAYS
Senators Fielder and johnson
and Speaker Taylor to Be
in Washington.

TRENTON. n. j., Feb. 17.-New
Jersey will be without Governor for
two days after March 1, when Gov
ernor Wilson will resign. The trouble
is that about everybody in the State
is going to Washington with Wilson;
not only the common people" but
also those high in State affairs.
To begin with, Senate President
James f. Fielder, of Hudson county,
becomes acting Governor of the State
when Mr. Wilson resigns. Senator
Fielder is going to Washington.
When Senator Fielder becomes act
ing Governor Senator James A. C.
johnson, of Bergep county, goes to
the head of the Senate as its presi-
dent. Senator Johnson is going to
Washington, and, therefore. cannot
take the place of Senator Fielder as
acting Governor.
When both the acting Governor and
the President of the Senate are out OF
the State Speaker Leon r. Taylor, OF
Monmouth county, presiding officer OF
the House, becomes the acting Gov
ernor. Speaker Taylor is going to
Washington. Therefore there will be
no Governor and no acting Governor
in New Jersey for forty-eight hours.

TRENTON, n. j., Feb. 17.-Abram
l.. Beavers. the defaulting cashier of
the First National Bank of High

States Court to answer to a charge
OF having misappied and converting

here today to plead to an indictment
The United States grand jury is still

1t is expected that the grand jury
will report tomorrow, when an indict-
ment against Beavers will be handed
down. -

Abraham Stiglitz, the local leader,

IT is known that the ma jOrity of the
strikers, after seven weeks of suffer

it is expected that an agreement of
some sort will be REACHED during the

STORM
TRENTON TOMORROW
toontInued from First Paseo

this winter stumping New Jersey, so
| spent last winter stamping New
York. and 1 want to say that 1 have
found the people of New Jersey far
more interested and friendly on this
question than | found those of New
York.
1.-The New Jersey Legislature this
winter reflects this attitude. In our
visits to the State House we have
found the legislators courteous and
considerate, and even when person
ally opposed to equal suffrage, willing
to admit the justice of permitting the
question to go to the voters. Two OF
the best men in the State of New
Jersey stand as sponsors of our bill,
Senator Davis, of Salem county,
leader of the Democratic majority in
the Senate, and Charles NJ. Egan, of
Jersey City, leader Of the Democratic
majority in the Assembly. And
wish to say here that we feel under
great obligations to Senator Blanch-
ard White leader of the Republican
minority in the Senate. Senator
White had introduced suffrage
amendment bill to carry out the
suffrage plank in the platform of the
Republican party of New Jersey. We
had not known that he was going to
do this, and found ourselves in the
amazing position of = having two
suffrage bills in the Senate. Senator
White has been most kiT.d and con-
siderate in this matters he has not
insisted on his own bill; he has an
nounced himself as perfectly willing
to vote for the Davis bill instead of
his own"

Il saw men shot down and one poor

dragged along by the horse.
ut seems that General Reyes, the

II saw President Madero and his
cabinet addressing the crowd only a

"The order was given to march
back to defend the palace, and just
as President Madero was waving his
hat and leading the soldiers back L
jumped out and took a picture. They

had to jump aside to avoid the horses.
