as their guests last week a former

Greeley Standard on County Division

| The Standard is not particularly in
! terested in having the northwestern
part of Weld county secede from the
parent county, nor is it particularly in
! terested against the secession, but it
does like fair play. Some time ago this
paper expressed a doubt that the pres
ent legislature would pass the division
bill for the simple reason that the spirit
of the times seemed to be directed to-
wards retrenchment and consolidation
instead of towards expansion and di-
vision.
We believe, moreover, in the rule of
the majority in accordance with the
spirit of our republican institutions and
constitutions. The people in the dis
trict embraced in the proposed new
county voted in free and open manner
on the question Of \ new county and by
an overwhelming majority decided they
wanted the new county formed. Hence
if the majority idea is to prevail. they
should have the new county. This vote
was taken after several years of inves-
tigation by them as to the cost of the
new county and the subsequent burdens
in maintaining it.
And we do know that in 1894 the then
county of Weld, comprising a much
larger territory than at present, had an
assessed valuation Of only little over,
81, 000. 900, while the proposed new one
has m assessed valuation of over
Sc, 600, 600. Considering the difference
in area involved this is showing very
much in favor of the new county.
AZ result Of long association with
dry-landers on dry land we are pre-
pared to say that no better class of
people exists on earth. As rule they
are above the average in intelligence
and they are certainly above the aver
age in those other qualities that are
necessary to good citizenship and to
making the desert blossom AZ the rose.
1t has been charged by contempor-
ary that the people up there are being
led into this thing by promoters and
ambitious Office seekers. We don't be-
lieve that eight out of every nine of the
residents Of the new territory are either
promoters or Office seekers. We really
hope, by the way, that some of them at
least are willing to hold the offices pro-
vided by law, because if none are will
ing the governor will have IN awful
time starting the new county in busi-
ness If the bill should finally pass. We
are too liberal and broad minded to &C.
cuse those people up there of having
ulterior motives in wanting home rule
and IN easily accessible seat Of govern
ment. A good many people in Weld
county believe that the forming Of this
new county will be Of actual benefit to
the remainder. Probably it will-ws
are not prepared to say. But the ones
most effected will be the citizens Of the
new county and they have expressed
themselves by m 8 to vote - being
willing to take the risk.
Nor are We 20 puffsd up with our own
importance in the world - to desire to
set aside the rights Of the majority and
60 still farther in such IN sgotistical
path a. to threaten those who are will
ing to let those people have say-so in
their own affairs.
Let the majority rule and let us give
ether people, whether they b lsgisla-
tors or private citizens. the credit Of
