The Strike Situation.

Just at present the strike situation
in Colorado does not show a disposi-
ton to clear up Immediately.
Arrangement for conference of the
two sides has been generally ignored
by the strikers. while the establish
ment OF a military court and the arrest
OF union leaders and agitators upon
federal jury indictments. has stirred
up very bitter feeling among the strik-
ing miners.
The arrests occurred during this
week following the findings OF the fed
eral jury in Pueblo. and many OF the
union leaders and agitators are now
in government tolls on charge of con
spiracy and monopoly in restraint of
trade. A statewide strike is again
threatened on December Is.
The situation is perhaps more seri-
ously alarming than most of us are
willing to admit, still it is customary
for good sense. guided by brains. to
win in this country. and we may hope
for a settlement as nearly satisfactory
to ali concerned. as is possible in such
cases.

The Odd Fellows

Members of the local Encampment

Monday evening to take part in the
initiation of some twelve or fourteen
new brothers in this branch of Odd
Fellowship and to transact other busi-
ness of Importance. Immediately fol-
lowing the limitations a sumptuous
banquet was served to which all did
ample justice.
There were thirteen candidates from
Crawford and naturally a number OF
old members came with the delegation
TO see that the mysteries were prop
erly given and that full satisfaction
resulted. Persons from Crawford TAX
ing the third degree which made them
rank members were as follows:

You Can't Always Tell.

Quite often a business enterprise
is thought to be paying good profits,
when it isn't.
For instance, the good old Denver
Republican, of whom its enemies said.
Guggenheim's barrel was always open.
was recently sold for the price of its
stcond hand equipment, and the state
ment was openly made that the paper
had been a steady money loser for
years.
Even the Denver Tramway COM
pany which according to Denver poll
teal traditions had been a corrupting,
money laden monopoly, is said to be
in debt to the extent of millions.
while its main push. Mr.. Evans. is
said by his closest friends to be a
physical wreck in an eastern sani-
tarium.
And so it goes. The public, and too
often the managers of a business en-
terprise, fail to take properly into ac-
count the costs OF operation.

Down in Mexico.

As the days go by it looks more
and more like Huerta's days were TO
be quickly numbered. Financially he
is busted" and money is of greater
importance in South American revo-
luton than guns or ammunition.
Starving federals this week evacu-
ated Chihuahua. and most of the in
habitants formed in line to hike for
safety, carrying with them the more
valuable of their worldly possessions.
Evidently the rebel forces will win.
Just what that will mean is a ques-
ton. though it is to be feared that it
will not mean much for permanent
peace. The long period of revolutions
has engendered so much OF feud and
license for outlawry, that TO anyone
slightly acquainted with the people,
but little hope can be had except
through a better governing power.
The quicker they get that kind of an
arrangement. the better it will be for
themselves and everybody concerned.

FREIGHT TRAIN WRECKED
SATURDAY NEAR HOTCHkiSS

The local freight train operating
between this city and Somerset was
wrecked at point near Hotchkfss
at about 4:30 last Saturday evening
and as a result Conductor Robley and
his crew of the passenger forces on
the North Fork branch were compell-
ed to make transfers of passengers
and business that evening and back
into Delta to remain until the wreck
ed cars and track had been repaired
Five heavily loaded freight cars we're

next considered. In the two former
countries, the governments duty is to
continue the privileges which the peo-
pie at present enjoy. In the Philip
pines. however. the duty Of the United
States is larger. This country should
push as rapidly as possible the work
Of establishing self government in the
islands. This has already been ad-
vanced by the appointing OF five, in
stead OF four native citizens to the
membership OF the commission which
governs the Philippines, giving the
Filipinos a majority.

Independent readers will easily re-
call the report appearing in columns
of this paper some three or four
months ago to the effect that John A.
Feeley, a prominent and well to do
resident of Hotchkiss had been arrest
ed on the charge of bigamy and that
the affair had created no little sur
prise since the principals were high
in the esteem and coed will Of all
who knew them.
Mr.. Feeley. who is a man well along
in years. has just taken a second wife.
and wife number one who had desert
ed him twenty years ago. hearing of
the marital doings of her former
spouse entered into communication
with the district attorneys office and

was arrested on a charge OF bigamy
and gave bond for appearance at a

The Methodist, or rather the Rio

in this city Wednesday afternoon with
a large attendance from all parts of
the district The day sessions are
given almost wholly to business of
general nature and the evening ses~
sions include features that are highly
entertaining. Wednesday evening
Chancellor Buchtel of the Denver uni
versity, who was once the governor of
this state, delivered an able and inter
esting address which was listened to
by many residents of the city. Bishop
Mcconnell of Denver is also present
taking part in the doings of the confer
ence.
Among the clergymen present from
the Western Slope are Rev. John z.
Moore of Carbondale, Rev ]. T. Cou-
Ter of Aspen, Rev. ]. V. Watson of
Grand Valley, Rev. George F. Kline of

Gets Divorce from Wife 1
After He MarrieS Wife =

Mr.. Feeley had lived the life of a
bachelor for so long, had utterly failed
to gain knowledge of his first wife's
existence or whereabouts, that he con-
sidered her dead, and without further
ado about the matter when he came
across a popular and highly respected
lady who would share with him the
remaining days of his life the cere-
mony was performed legalizing the
union as was supposed by both parties
to the contract. But in this they erred
as was learned later and much is their
chagrin and discomfort.
A divorce from the former wife.
Mrs. Emma Louise Feeley. was applied
for in the county court of this county
and granted by Judge Dingman on
Saturday. November 29. Another
ceremony will doubtless take place
when Mr.. and Mrs. Feeley will be
thoroughly right and square with the
world again.

Independent reporter had a brief in
terview with one or more of the Rio

learned that there were many of the
Grande employees who had all their
savings in the Mesa County National
Bank which closed its doors one day
last week. Some of the men are feel
ing mighty blue over the affair" re-
marked the spokesman.
Conductor Hugh Gallagher of the

have had enough coin in the failed
bank to make a Christmas tree look
all right on the morning of the twen-
ty.fifth OF this month. His loss. how
ever. is small compared with others.

NEW COUNTY COMMISSIONER
TO BE APPOINTED SOON

The upper country papers have been
having something to say about the
appointment OF a county commissioner
to fill the vacancy caused by the res
ignation of Commissioner Roberts of
Paonia.
SO far there appears to be two
strong Democratic candidates for the
appointment. Vim Mathews OF Paonia
and ]. C. Mitchell of Hotchkiss. and
the campaign between the two towns
promises to be OF the usual intensive
kind. Hotchkiss claimants think their
candidate entitled to preference be-
cause Paonia has long had commits
sioner. while Paonia people insist that
their man should be appointed as he
is to fill a vacancy caused by the res
ignation OF their own citizen. Both
candidates have lots OF friends and are
regarded as able and worthy appli-
cants. and to whatever degree OF inter
est the race between them may attain
the finish will no doubt be an entirely
friendly one.
TIL resignation OF Commissioner
Roberts takes effect January IA. the
close OF his first year OF commissions
ership for this term, and 1t Is doubt
full II the appointment OF the new COM
missioner will be made before the be-
ginning OF the new year.
