FIRE DESTROYS ONE OF
THE EARLY BUILDINGS

Last Saturday morning at 3:15
o'clock the fire siren awoke the
citizens of Monte Vista to witness
the burning of the Star hotel.
When the fire was discovered it
had already gained a great head
way and when the alarm was sounded
the flames were shooting high above
the roof of the building The fire
department arrived quickly on the
scene and lines of hose were laid
and water turned on without a
hitch or the loss of a moments
time. With three streams of water
playing and in the absence of any
wind, the flames were subdued and
the fire entirely put out before it
could spread to nearby houses.
The building was utterly de-
stroyed and although the walls of
the front part are still standing
and part of the roof is still in place,
they are worthless. There was
some insurance. BENZ. FL. Stephens
who owned the place and his fam
lily were occupying the building
and had scant time to get out.
Mrs. Stephens was very i'll and had
to be carried from the house. The
son, Arthur, finding his escape by
the stairway cut off by the fire

climbed out over the porch at the
front and became entangled in a
wire on the hotel sign and had to
be assisted to the ground.
Mr.. Stephens was having the
place painted and re-papered pre-
paratory to starting up hotel
business.
The origin of the fire is unknown.
The building was not wired for
electricity and it is thought that
the fire may have started from the
heating stove, the pipe from which
passes close to the stairway.
The cottage of j. L. Schall,
which is situated just a few feet
south of the hotel, was badly
scorched The furniture was all
removed from the Schall home
and somewhat damaged in hand
ling. The roof of Harry Sanders
bungalow to the north of the hotel
was kept wet and was uninjured.
The Star hotel was built "a years
ago by Allen Heaton. 1t was a
story frame building and until
the past three years had stood on
the lots across from the depot on
the present site of l.. B. Sylvester's
residence.

G. d. Wilder of the Alamosa
Courier has brought suit against
Alexander Oliver proprietor of the
Alamosa Journal to recover about
$llOO which Wilder claims is due
to him as his part of the money
paid by the state last fall for pub
fishing the initiated and referred
bills. The publication was required
in one paper in each county, but
in Conejos it was thought best to
divide the money between the Ala
mosa Courier and the journal and
and the La Jara Chronicle. The
contract was made, however, be-
tween the Secretary of State and
Oliver, and the suit is evidently
being brought to force divvy.

proved.
On motion of Lyons, supported by
Newman, and declared carried by the
vote following, the following resolution
was adopted.
Whereas, the taxpayers of this coun-
ty are justly complaining because of
the refusal of the board of supervisors
to provide any funds for the upkeep Of
the county roads, said roads being al
most impossible and entirely unsafe;
being in such miserable share that ac-
cidents are almost certain to occur, by
reason of which the county will be res
ponsible for all damages; and
| Whereas, certain parties are under
taking and endeavoring to persuade the
board to purchase set of abstract
books at an exorbitant figure, and it is
common knowledge that said abstracts
have, from time to time, been offered
to private individuals for half the price
now asked; therefore,
Be 1t Resolved, that we, the board
of county road commissioners, in behalf
of the people of Baraga County, pro-
test against the unnecessary expenditure
of money above referred to, and res
pectfully petition said supervisors to
vote the amount of money asked for
said abstracts to the benefit and for the
usd of the county roads.

surety as to my discharge of duties
other than a personal pledge that 1
will seek to familiarize myself with
them and will endeavor always to ex-
ercise that compliance and forbear-
ance which are essential to him who
ably presides over great debates upon
great public questions by great men.
Divergent views relative to this
body would be less divergent if the
American people would come to real
iZe that on all sides of real questions
much may truthfully be said. Such
an attitude of the public mind would
eliminate the view that this body Is
distinctly deliberate and not thor
oughly patriotic.
Charges of bad faith based upon
an attitude of mind or upon conduct
should never be made until it is clear
ly established that the resultant actor
is the outcome of personal interest ol
improper ard dishonorable business
or social relations.

WILSON |NHER|TS
MANY PROBLEMS
STUPENDOUS TASKS ARE
AHEAD OF NEW PRESIDENT
Sentiment for progressive" Reforms
is Strong-Nation's Course OF Ac-
ton in With World Powers Now III
Hands of Mr.. Wilson-Canal Dis
pute of Great importance.

Washington. March 4.-Excepting
alone war presidents" few national
executives ever faced upon March
more stupendous task than today con-
fronted President Wilson. And prob
ably no president ever realized more
fully the gravity of the tremendous re-
sponsibility that is his.
Democracy was placed on trial to-
day for the first time in twenty years
at the bar of public opinion, with the
entire nation as the Jury" Crises in
Vulnerable awaint tests in democra-
cy's crucible. Future prosperity oi
the country indeed of several coun-
tries-and fate of great political par
ties hangs in the balance.
Sentiment for progressive" re-
forms, which put the democratic par
ty into power today, demand per-
formance. To secure legislation OF
real reform is the four years task
facing the new administration. Fac
tional divisions within the dominant
party. Democratic leaders them
selves admit, make the next four
years potent with possibilities.
This nations coure of peace and
friendship with the world powers and
its policy in Central and South Amer
ica were today placed in the hands
of President Wilson. Alone this con-
stitutes a mountainous task. Con-
fronting him in prime importance
was the civic strife in MexicO-the
problem of preserving peace and or
der there without shedding of Ameri-
lean blood.
Administration of the Panama ca
nal was another giant problem as
sumed today. involving settlement of
disputes with Great Britain. Canada,

and other European countries over
the free tolls" concession given AM
erican shipping. The Taft admins
tically in a state of incubation. Re-
peal of the free tolls clause is the
demand Wilson's cabinet must face
and solve. other diplomatic ques-
tions confronting the new administra-
ton is proposed recognition Of the
new Chinese republic, negotiation of
new trade and passport treaty with
Russia, work of the Alasgan bound
ary commission, tariff reprisals in
Europe, completion of the Honduras
lion, joint action in conserving the
| Alaska sealing situation, and the
Newfoundland fisheries muttered
rum blings of strife in Cuba, Santo
Domingo, Haiti, Salvador, and Hon.
duras, besides the dispute with Bra
zil over coffee importations.
Immediately confronting President
Wilson today was the great question
Of patronage and the program for the
extraordinary session of congress.
Revision of the tariff and possibly
banking and currency reform are urg-
ed for special, immediate action. Call
| ing of special session is to be one of
the first acts of the new president,
probably within few days.
Appointment of the cabinet was to
be the opening gun of the patronage
| fight. Ambassadors, ministers, con-
suls, federal judges, prosecuting Off
GERS, thousands of postmasters and
an army of lessere federal officehold-
ers is the task awaiting early action.
Platform pledges galore await full
I fillment by the democrats. These elm
| clude such knotty problems as Phil
| ippine independence, Porto Rican cit
| izenship, amendment or Strengthening
the Sherman antitrust law, a single
| presidential term, and labor" legis-
lation.
"Legacies" innumerable were left
to the new executive by former Prese-
| ident Taft. These include the Pana-
ma canal tolls controversy, the Mexi-
can trouble and many measures which
died" in congress when the sixty
second session ended today.
Among the bills and policies await
ing action by the new administration
and congress are:
Senator Works resolution for a
constitutional amendment limiting
tenure of president to one term Of six
years.
Limited independence for the Fill
pinos.
Representative -Clayton's anti-in
junction bill.
The "seamen's labor" bill.
