SPECIAL ELECTION
NEXT MONTH
Must Provide for Reissue of
City Water Bonds
SEVERAL RIDERS
WILL BE ATTACHED
Such as New City Hall Building,
Improved Fire Equipment and
Addition to Cemetery

A special meeting of the city
council was held on Tuesday even
ing to hear the views of a repre-
sentative of the Denver company
who are holders of Rocky Ford
water bonds falling due next
month, regarding the method of
providing funds for their redemp-
ton, and according to the opinion
of this gentleman, which coin
cides with legal advice upon the
question, as no provision was
made at the last election to pro-
vide the funds to meet these bonds
it will now be necessary to go to
the expense of special election
for this purpose.
At this meeting the council was
informed by the city attorney that
they had the power to elect Il
mayor to fill vacancy in that
honorable position should any
occur, SO this eliminated any
necessity for making the mayor
atty an object of the special cleo
ton, but some discussion was in
dulged in of the advisability of
taking a vote upon increasing the
bonded indebtedness to $4,000 to
provide for the $4,000 water bond
reissue, some $4,000 to make up
the amount required to purchase
additional cemetery ground, and
$4,000 to put up respectable
city hall building and improved
fire equipment.
No definite action was taken at
the special meeting, but it is un-
derstood that the mayor will re-
commend these riders to the orr
ginal call for the special election
at the regular council meeting
this evening.
AS the proposition of All in
creased bonded Indebtedness Wit
ally touches our already overbur-
dened taxpayers considerable pro-
test may be expected should the
attempt be made to bring the mat
ter to a vote, though everyone is
agreed that we should havs fire
engine, a new city hall and addi-
tional burying ground.

BURGLARS CAUGHT

Sheriff Wants reputation as thief
catcher received boost on Monday. when
he captured the bunch of Mexioans who
last week burglarized the Hyde store at
La Junta, which a couple of days before
had been bought at bankrupt sale by j.

two in Manzanola. while the other three

THE ABUSE OF BREAD
How the staff of Life"
May Become the In
Strument of Death


Bread is the chief of the force
foods. These include potatoes. dry
beans, corn, rice, breakfast foods and
cereals. in fact, every product OF the
grains. This great class of food sup
plies the body with fuel both to do
muscular work and to maintain bodi-
ly warmth and hence the necessity
for this class of food is quite appar-
ent. No one can enjoy even mod
crate degree of vigor and energy
without his daily portion OF force
food, and for the most part this is ia
ken in the form of bread.
While certain amount of bread is
necessary to the welfare of the body,
an excess of it is a decided detriment.
Today overeating on bread and SINH
lar foods is far more common than
overeating on any or all other class
es of food. In fact, it has become
the universal habit With the ad-
vent of labor-saving machinery and
steam-heated houses. Offices, and fac
tories the people are doing less man
ual labor and they are less exposed
to the elements. They need far less
force food But, except in OCCASION

BIG BARBECUE
VIII Be Pulled Off at Sugar Factory
on April rs

At meeting on Monday night of the
Factory Boys olub-eomposed exclusively
of American Beet Sugar Co. employees
d was decided to hold the annual bar
beoue on the evening of April rs.
This yearly event is always one of the
happiest and most eventful in the lives of
the employees families and their friends
who are so fortunate as to receive invita-
tons, and the simple. announcement that
the big doings Of the factory boys" has
been given definite date is sufficient to
make everyone sit up and take notice.
In addition to the barbecue-which has
reached point of excellence that can
not be excelled--the boys each year put
on a stunt of minstrelsy or the like that
adds greatly to the evenings enjoyment,
and although they are not giving out any
information as the form of entertainment
that will be provided this year it is safe
bet that the show will be something to
laugh over and talk about.

al instances, there is no decrease in
the intake OF force food. The man
that sits at the desk eats as much
bread as the one that works hard out
OF doors.
In occasional instances the excess
OF bread is digested and does harm
either by overworking the organs and
tissues in burning it up. or by bur
dening the body with useless fat. U.s.
ually, however the excess of bread
remains undigested in the bowels,
where it ferments and fills the bow
els with gases and poisons. This fer
mentation is frequently a cause for
chronic disorders OF the stomach and
bowels. These poisons. formed in
the bowels from undigested, unused
breads. quickly find their way into
the blood where they have an effect
upon every part OF the body. Through
the constant poisoning OF the body is
laid the basis for many chronic di-
seases, including hardening of the ar
terics. Furthermore. as result OF
the constant poisoning. the natural
deicnses OF the body are lowered and
the way is opened for various acute
diseases.

beef sare considerable, and word came
Friday that the equivalent OF 10000
cattle was being loaded for New York. to

other shipments promise to affect April
beef markets adversely. Stookers and

largely at 81 to SO. with some cattle on

Editor of The Enterprise:
During the past week | have been told
by number that what had printed last
week was the truth. and they hoped more
would express themselves, not only on
the street corners but in print.
One reelected county official said, "the
piece as whole was good. but you did
not put the blame just exactly where it
belonged"
He said the county officials were not SO
much to blame for our steady increase Of
taxes as the system under which they
were doing business.
Well. if the system is so faulty or rotten
and is the cause Of the over increase of
our expenses. then let me ask: Who are
and have been for several terms in a
position better than the county officials

Again we must chronicle the extra

this correspondence more copy than
any other new member. II was Kin
dell who recently assured the public
that he would rather be dead SEN

giving this as his reason for announc-
ing himself as candidate for sena-
tor from Colorado. Representative
Kindell recently made a speech which
he thought was good, and he stamp
ed pricelist for it in quantities and
sent it broadcast. Along about the
same time lie threatened to institute
impeachment proceedings against the
postmaster general. The cabinet Of
fetal retorted by asking kindell to
pay letter postage upon all speeches
that he had sent out that were not
entitled to the ranking privilege
This amounted to about $4,000 and
Kindell said he was just out of
change. Since there is no penalty at

SYSTEM BLAMED FOR HIGH TAXATION
But No Effort is Being Made by Powers-ThatBe te
Bring Change Says Enterprise Correspondent

to know that their system of doing our
business is all wrong and by following it
they are annually bringing a larger bur-
den upon US taxpayers?
And may ask: Whose duty is it, If
knowing the wrong, they do not publicly
denounce such a system and ask us to
help remedy it?
Now. il the system is wrong will ask
that official to explain to US the faults Of
said system and show US how to remedy
it.
Wisconsin had the same trouble and
passed laws to remedy it. and the taxes
were reduced one-third. Ohio did the
same and profited thereby. Why should
we put up with it?

Meets In La Junta Next Week
At we'll attended meeting of
the Otero County Agricultural as
sociation on Saturday afternoon,
the members from Cheraw and
the Holbrook country again voiced
the complaints that were heard at
the meeting in Cheraw last month
that the people of that vicinity
were unable to reach Rocky Ford
by train without considerable in
convenience because of the fact
that the Santa Fe had apparently
abandoned this end of the Arkan-
sas Valley railroad.
To their complaints, which
were fully reported in The Enter
prise when first made, has been
added the protests of farmers
along the Abandoned line that the
right of-way has become breed
ing place for weeds to the serious
menace of adjoining farms, and
they wished to know whether the
Santa Fe could not either be in
duced to- clear this branch and
give them transportation facilities
to the Rocky Ford market, as
promised when the right.of-way
was granted, or definitely abandon
the line and let the land revert to
its original owners.
After some discussion COM
nittee consisting of GIN. Golf
man, Harry Badger and George
Hallows was appointed to investi-
gate the franchise and state laws
governing railroads, SO that the
members of the association might
know what method of procedure
they could take to induce the
Santa Fe either to reopen or
abandon the Arkansas Valley rail-
road terminal to this city.
j. NJ. Shaulis gave a detailed
account Of his recent visit to the
country of high grade dairy stock.
and urgently recommended that
even the smallest herd should be
composed of blooded COWS exclu-
sively. His talk was very inter-
esting and of considerable instruc-
tive value to association members.
His talk brought up the milk
condensery subject and in re-
Spouse to some questions it was
announced that the committee of
sixteen appointed to take census
of available COWS and the senti-
ment of the farmers regarding the
establishment of a milk conden-
sery at Rocky Ford would be
ready to report at the next meet
ing on Saturday, April 4.
In response to ali invitation it is
likely that this next meeting will
be held at La Junta.
