ing to 100000 year, to
schools that furnish special ia
cilities or come above the mini
mum requirements.
The permanent school fund is
now approximately SIS, 100000.
It comes from the sale of state
school lands, from the timber on
school lands and the royalty on
iron ore on school lands. 1t is
estimated that it will eventually
reach $1OO,0OO,OOO; it may run
anywhere from that to $780,
900, 900.
The constitution says this in
come must be apportioned ac-
cording to the number of schol-
ars. The legislature has said
that a scholar is one who has
attended school at least forty
days, in a district that has kept
school open at least five months.
The education commission
does not propose to change the
constitution. Let the income of
the trust fund be distributed on
a per capita basis. The commits
sion would change the require
ment. 1t proposes that to quail
fly for apportionment, the pupil
must attend school one hundred
days-twenty weeks instead of
eight.
The state believes in giving
every child a common school ed
ucation. To adopt the hundred
day rule would be equivalent to
saying that a child can hardly
get a common school education
unless he attends twenty weeks
in a year. The state is not in
terested in dabbling at an edu-
cation.
Improve your schools, the
state will say to the districts,
and you shall have more from
other funds. Keep your school
open five months at least and
for every child that puts in that
much time in school you shall
share in this trust fund.
IL you are not interested to
that extent, the state will say,
then the state is not interested
in your school.

The DREAMER
(JoHN D. wELLs.>

(JOHN D. WELLS)
They said he lived in vain,
But when he died
The gentle skies shed tears of rain
Those skies meath which he dreamed, and fain
Would roam and dream beneath again
And children cried.
They said he lived for none,
But when he left, Ga
Yhe buds that long his path had blown,
And all he loved and called his own,
Did bow their pretty heads and moan
Like souls bereft.
They cannot see, who said
He lived for none,
That yonder woodland stream that led
Along the path he loved to tread
Has ceased its song and sighs instead
For who's gone.
They cannot know who play
There is gain
In living thus each joyous day
In dreams of neyer-ending May
They cannot know-or would not say
He lived in vain.

that may result from these taking

A few weeks ago | referred to the
fact that we will have the "headless
ballot" next fall. In an exchange |
note that it is said that "the law is
silent on the subject of the form of
the ballot. This is entirely untrue.
The law is explicit as to the form.
and reads, that ''the official ballot
used at election shall be arranged
and prepared as now provided by
law, except across the head or top
of the ballot shall be printed the
following words: ITO vote for a per-
son, make a cross mark in the square
at the right of his name"
The names on the official ballot
will be arranged just as they have
been in the past and the only change
made by the headless ballot law is
that the voter cannot vote a straight
ticket simply by making q single
cross or by the manipulation of the
crank of voting machine. Papers
which undertake to instruct the
voter should be careful to get copy.
of the law and follow that law very
closely in order to prevent confusion.
In 1908 Delta county wished to
adjudicatc certain bitches and
streams in District No. 40. Mesa
county was not then in that district,
but Escalante creek heads in this
county and there are one or two small
ranches on the stream in Mesa coun-
ty. Delta county asked to take over
that small stream by legislative en-
aetment in order to cheaper the cost
OF the adjudication with the under
standing that Mesa county would not
be asked to pay any part of the ex-
renses of No 40. A bill was intro
duccd that year by the Delta MEM
Der of the house and it passed. Chas.

Mesa and George Stephan of Delta,

Will return on tne investment year

az many failures in merchandising as
there are in the fruit industry. the
number of those engaged being con-
sidered.
II would, seem as If the grand Jury
might '.get next" to the location OF
persons who are selling liquors to
such men as Pete Lapham, whose
trial is going TO cost the taxpayers
good deal Of money and whose Of
fense is surely traceable to liquor.
Lapham was drunk few days before
the shooting and lost his way home
in Milldale, having been found in
the far east part of the city looking
for Winters avenue. Some one Is
giving such men strong drink con-
trary to law. IF it is the drug stores
or the clubs, of whatever nature or
the common, low-down bootlegger,
they ought to be indicted first off.
These criminal trials are costing too
much money and this is one of the
things the grand jury might do to
warrant its existence.
Now is the time to scrape the
rough bark from the fruit trees If
II mas not been done already. Ii not
done soon other pressing work, will
be upon us and it will not be done.

1t is rather queer that three mem-
bers of our supreme court can reach
the conclusion that the law-making
body has no right to create a BODY
which shall have the authority to
make every county assessor fix an
equal valuation on all property. II
not then some of the counties might
assess lands at ten cents the acre
and the commission would have no
right to raise that price to one which
Will be equal to a fair valuation in
other counties. AS matter of fact
this equalizing business is treated as
Colorado is now trying to do it.

A similar bill was prepared and
passed the house in the Nineteenth
assembly and met the same fate. The
present commissioners have decided
to test the legality of that claim
upon Mesa county and it is hoped
that there was a written stipulation
between Mesa and Delta covering the
matter. In equity we should not pay
a cent of this expense except for what
we receive in service. 1t may be
that we will have to make continu-
ing fight to get a law passed but we
now have member of the senate of
our own and it may not be so diff
cult. The members of the house
both years from Montrose and Delta
have recognized our predicament and
consented to the righting of the law
az agreed. The matter of legisla-
tion is sometimes very peculiar and
right does not always triumph.

Once in a while we hear some one
knocking the fruit industry in this
valley and insisting that there is
nothing in it." AS matter of fact
there is no other line of business in

Take the matter of pears as an illus
tration. The old Ramey pear orch

In most all of the large farm and
orchard papers in the east are long
and interesting articles on the com
ing back of partially abandoned or
chards and farms which can be
bought very cheap; men of intelli
gence are buying some of these places
and are making good. This has made
quite change in the production of
apples in some of the eastern states
New York, Virginia, Maryland and
others. In many places they are
adopting the western box and pack
and are trying to compete with Colo
RADIO and the northwest.
According to Mr.. James L. Hamil-
ton they are competing too, and he
says that in many of the southern
cities he saw splendid eastern apples
in barrels that made the stuff we are
sending down there-our second
grade look like nubbins by the side
of first class ears of corn. At the
same time We are going to cut down
the size of our box-about the best
thing we have left to talk about.
Just SO long as we ship the two low
er grades of apples we should not
think of reducing the box to less

There is going to be something do
