DEMOCRATIC PATRIOTISM
Entirely Too Touching for Some of
Local Members of the Party

The county commissioners decid-
ed that as they would have to do a
lot of road work this year to clean up
some of the bog holes and gullies
which make travel inconvenient to say
the least, they would try the plan of
putting one man in charge of the en-
tire work for the county and let him
take the kicks.
As it has been the Colorado demo-
cratic custom to turn over all impor-
tant work to their recruits from the
republican ranks-because they must
have had good judgment at one period
of their lives anyway, they appointed
Harry Hammond of Bristol to the
job. Harry has taken hold at once
and notified the road workers that
owing to the fact that the democratic
administration has made hard times
in the county it should be their pat
riotic duty to the party to assist in
reducing expenses by working for
less money. He therefore announces
a cut Of fifty cents per day beginning
the first Of April and ten hours in
stead Of eight to constitute days
work.
Jack Ford Of the local district has
rendered his resignation and informs
us that democratic patriotism is be-
coming entirely too touching. They
make times harder and taxes higher
and that touches the pocketbook pref
ty heavy. But when they ask you on
account of their own conditions to do
ten hours work for 50cents less than
eight hours pay, Jack says it becomes
entirely "too touching" for him and
he will retire the first of the month.
Jack is making a mistake we are sure.
II he would only establish private
mud hole on the main road and keep
his road teams handy he could make
the job pay.
BY the way we looked industriously
through the semi-annual statement to
see what share Of that mud hole mon
ey last summer was turned over to
the county, but failed to get any en-
lightenment. As the county footed
bills it should at least have received
a divvy out of the swag.

Definite assurance that sugar
factory will be erected in Sheridan
this year in readiness for the crop
of 1915 was received here this after
noon in a telegram from r. McGinnis,
auditor of the Holly Sugar company.
The plant Of the company now To-
Gated at Holly, Colo, is to be dis
mantled and the machinery shipped
here for the new factory. Work on
that will commence at once. 1t is
likely that new company, the Sher-
idan Sugar company, will be organic
ed, including considerable local cap
ital.
Arrangements have already been
made for raising approximately 1000
acres Of beets this year, and calls for
beet raisers are being sent to the
principal beet growing centers OF
Colorado, Nebraska and Montana
There are several thousand acres of
beet lands contiguous to Sheridan.
The plant in Holly has not been
operated for the last year, because
the same company owns larger rae
tory at Swink, which has been able to
care for all beets raised in that To-
cality. 1t is a 600-ton plant, but
provisions will be made for increasing
its capacity. 1t will be modernized in
every way.
The above story in the Denver
News was the first information that
the people of this section had receiv-
ed regarding the moving Of the fac
tory though this paper had tipped off
the fact last week that such might be
expected shortly.
The factory was built in 1905 at a
cost of approximately 100000 and
campaigns were conducted for six
straight years. Then the plant was
idle for one season and made but one
more run, being closed since 1912, the
beet production in these parts falling
off rapidly as the growers became
dissatisfied with the returns from that
crop.
Work was started Thursday morn
ing by a force Of men under ToRy
Tovstt to tear down the immense

brick buildings, and it is estimated
that it will be several months before
the work is finished. All the buildings
except the large warehouses will be
removed and several hundred men
will be employed on the task.
The people here generally express
but little regret over the removal.
Since the factory has ceased to OPP
crate the business men have labored
and hoped to have same run, but the
farmers would not grow beets. Now
that the question is settled for once
and all times they can get down to
u solid basis and do some real work.
Ire removal Of the factory will make
no difference to the man who wishes
to grow beets, as the companies pay
for deliveries at the dumps.
Goodbye, old sugar factory Holly
got along without you and couldn't
get along with you.

has come to light that the states fl

worse than had. been supposed. 1t is
known that requisition has come to
light dated December 10, 1914, in favor
of the state sanitarium, which has
never been paid. From time to time
it appears payment of the money ha,
been put off, though it is shown by
the books that the money is due the
institution, as part of the 1914 appro-
priations-in fact is now pretty nearly
a year past due. The institution, it is
understood, itself is in bad financial
state. and is pressed for money which
it can not get.
