Killarney. Ireland
June 30, 1918.

June ~, lJl D.
Walter Walker.
Dear Sir:-One who visits Ireland
at this season of the year is most
fortunate. for it is now that the most
wild flowers are in bloom, the great
fuchsia trees are the most magnifi-
cent and the wide marshes of forget
me-nots are the most beautiful and
fragrant.
Glengarriff, our last stopping
place, is mountainous glen, easy of
access and extremely charming. The
route to and from it is charmingly
delightful, and, until we reached XII
larney, we enjoyed magnificent seem
cry on every side. Parknasilla Ia
beauty spot on the way where lunch
added its picturesque beauty to the
days travel.
The town of Killarney, though
rightfully claiming its location in
Natures wonderland, is far from be-
ing wealthy. Its main street con-
sists of little shops, not clean nor
inviting, showing little else than GU
rios and souvenirs. The lace shops
are more interesting, although usual
ly located on back street and occu-
pying a part of one room in small
two-rooma house. The lace--Limer-
ick. guipure and Irish crochet-is ex-
quisitely done and is in great demand
by the tourists.
The houses here are poorly fur
nished. They have bare stone floors
a great Fireplace and contain only
absolute necessities. All houses are
built of stone or cement
The people seem happy and con-
tented; and, as we met them in their
low-back cars returning from market
or church, they smiled and greeted
us. Almost every woman and girl
wears heavy double shawl over her
head, even on the hottest day.
The land here is good for little else
than pasture land, or beauty, there
being but a thin layer of soil and
that producing no growth save flow
err Or grass: yet occasionally we do
see fields of barley and cats. potatoes
and cabbage. Hundreds OF sheep
Craze on the mountains. Perhaps
you can guess how the menu cards
read almost every meal-there are no
fruit trees here, consequently no
fruit, and something seems lacking
in the daily diet which Coloradoans
enjoy.
We met the children going to
school, all with school-bags across
their shoulders. These bags seemed
filled to overlooking, even little tots
going to kindergarten with bags of
books. School is in session during
the entire year; but the long term
seems to agree with both mind and
bcdy-they are quick-witted and
bright, rosy-cheeked and handsome,
A large convent is located here,
where many girls so each day to
learn lace-making and where exqui-
site lace is sold. The girls carry
their frames with them as they go,
for they work after they reach home
in the evening. They are blue-eyed,
red-cheeked and curly-haired.
There is an orphan asylum. n poor
house, an insane asylum, Catholic
cathedral, a Methodist church and a
Presbyterian church here-all beau
tiful buildings. There are large es-
tates, owned by members OF the royal
family and other wealthy families.

is the rival of Price canon. The lat
ter route is the one used by A. l..
Westgard on the trip. and the two
routes have been racing to q finish
in order that they may have Il part
of the Indiana travel.
Price will have n number of cars
here, and Sewer county will meet the
reason to believe that, as the Price
canon is the official Midland Trail
route and is now open, the party will
use that road. However. if the
change is not made. it will not be
the fault of the Castledale and En-
cry County people.

IbUSH To BE NEW HEAD Of

Five Great Roads TO Be United Under His Management Denver

Much Money TO Be Expended in improvements

icy Mr.. Bush has inaugurated since
he took charge of the Iron Mountain
and Missouri Pacific and later the
Rio Grande.
Never in the history of the road
has so much money been expended in
permanent improvements as since Mr..
Bush has been In charge The fact
that he is constantly on the ground
and is not a resident of New York
city has been an important factor in
winning the regard Of the patrons of
his roads.
Mr.. Schlacks is a remnant of the
old Gould regime. and. while an ex-
cellent executive of that school. very
properly gives way to the newer ideas
and more virile progressiveness of
Mr.. Bush and his aides.
That Denver is to be the most i'm

thoritatively stated. and Colorado, 1t

That the conference between the
subcommittee of the Committee of
Seventy and the officials of the light
power and railway utilities will fail.
so far as purchase agreement is
concerned, was presaged by the cor
respondence between the committee
and Orson Adams. president of the

Replying to letter published In
The Sentinel Saturday, Mr.. Adams
today asked the subcommittee if the

ing contemplated the acquisition of

panies In the Grand valley or merely
those specifically mentioned. lie in
ferred that the company would not
look with favor upon the partition OF
the various utilities.
The committee, replying, stated
that 1t was proposed TO take over the
light and gas plant of this city, the
street railway and interurban -
Fruita, but not the ice plant nor the
Fruita electric lighting system. which
Is also owned by the Sunderlin peo-
pie.
The correspondence in fun is given
below. but the eist of it is that the
subcommittee will not agree to the
acquisition of the Ice plant and the
companies will not sell to the city
unless the entire holdings are pur-
chased outright,
However, the conference may be
held and the decision of the compan-
les specifically outlined to the COM
