West Morgan Republicans voice the

is honest worthy and capable, though
he has never announced IN the Re-

the Republican will be one OF his

SOME OLD NEWSPAPERS

Mr.. II. S. Eviers. of III River
street. has In his possession some very
old newspapers OF which he is very
proud. One OF them is an issue OF The
New York Herald. OF April 18th, 1865.
which tells OF the assassination OF
President Lincoln in Washington. II
also tells OF the maneuvers OF both the
federal and the confederate armies.
Another rare copy is that of The
Daily Citizen OF yicksburg. which was
edited by J. NJ. Swords The issue IL
that of July 2. 1869. and tells of the
capture of vicksburg by the federals.
The issue Is printed on wall paper be-
cause the long siege had exhausted
the supply OF print paper.
The most ancient copy of the collec-
tion owned by Mr.. Eviers Is an issue
of the Ulster County Gazette published
at Kingston, Ulster county. by Samuel
Freer and son in January 1900. It u
number IS OF the second volume OF the
paper. The news service OF this paper
consisted OF the London papers four

The Red Book is a business sympo-
sium made up of contributions from
editors of the more prominent newspa-
pers in the five states mentioned.
without exception these contributors
have taken an optimistic view OF the
year 1914. and it is the burden of their
message that all branches of industry
mining. agriculture. and commerce
in general-will prove better in the
present year than for several years
previous.
That The Red Book reaches a wide
clientele OF readers is evidenced by the
fact that the secretary of the chamber
of commerce here receives many in
quiries from people in various parts
of the country asking about Canon
City as the result OF having read some
thing in II in relation to this COM
munity and Fremont county. \ few

SAM HOFFMAN CLEANED
UP NICE YEAR

Sam Hocman. the Wit OF Park
Center. had a splendid year financially.
Sam is a real hustler and the sun
doesn't rise too early nor set too
late for him.
He has two tracts OF land close to
each other totaliIng i7is acres. These
two ranches are practically just com
Ing into bearing. not having been cui-
tiyated over four or five years. yet this
year Sam took on nearly 1900 boxes
OF apples which averaged si.l2 a box.

One thousand baskets of grapes av-
eraged around ~ cents. making 1870.
This was an on year on grapes for
Sam. however. Last year he got 1900
baskets With about the same average
price.
Five hundred crates OF cherries
brought an average OF ;i.75. 1875
realized from cherries. Raspberries.
both kinds. made a total of over $50
crates and brought at an average OF
800. That means $500 for n little
time and trouble. In all Sam pulled
In over 50 1000 for the years work.
OF course he had some expenses.
But he did the greater share OF the
work himself and about all the money
he was out was for his water tax
and box and Grating material. $1,000
will easily cover these expenditures
and 1t is plain to see the splendid
profit.
Sam started in on Park Center In
the wild and Woody" when the irri-
eating water FIRST arrived and long
before anyone ever had any idea 4
would be half as ideal as II Is today.
He started in with few acres and
kept right at II. Now he has 17Ik
acres OF the finest land up there. And
he wouldn't sell for a 81 900 an acre
either. And what is more he won't
have to az long as he can keep up the
$4,000 gait.
