Power Company to Reduce Charges.

Denver.-The controversy between
the people of Florence and the Arkan-
sas Valley Electric Company and the
Arkansas Valley Railway, Light and
Power Company, which involved elec.
trio light rates and service, has been
settled by the State Public Utilities
Commission. The minimum rate Of
$1.50 for domestic and commercial
use was termed unreasonable by the
commission and minimum rate Of
81 per month suggested as reasonable.
Other changes in rates were made Of
from 1 to cents less per kilowatt
hour than the original rates of the
company. Charges against the serv.
ice were overruled. The Colorado &
Southern has filed petition for re-
hearing in the coal rate case in which
reduction of rates all over the state
was made by the utilities board.

too soon, for exactly a week later,
July IA, the British man Of war Col
lingwood, commanded by Sir George
Seymour, arrived at Monterey to pro-
claim British sovereignty. 1t was
thus only by a narrow chance that
England did not become the possessor
of California, which she had greatly
coveted.
On the fourth day of July, 1854, two
barks which had been sent by Sir
Walter Raleigh to discover and annex
the American continent north OF
Florida arrived off the coast Sailing
along for 120 miles, they entered the
mouth of river and took formal pos
session of the country for the queen
of England, naming it Virginia. They
landed on Roanoke island, afterward
occupied by the first English settle
ment in the new world. This
| colony, consisting of 40 persons sent
| out in April, 1885, was abandoned in
| less than year, the settlers carrying
back with them to Europe the first to-
bacco and the first potatoes, which
latter were planted experimentally
on Raleigh's estate not far from Cork,
in Ireland.
On the fourth day of July, 1854,
Benjamin Franklin laid before the
commissioners of colonies, at AL
bany, plan for a federal constitu-
ton, aimed to accomplish union for
defense against French encroachment.
1t was adopted, but afterward was re-
jected by some of the colonies and by
the British government. This was ex-
actly twenty-five years before the
signing Of the Declaration of Inde.
pendence. Curiously enough, the doc.
ument was rejected by the colonies
because it put too much power into
the hands Of the king; and 1t was We.
toed in England because it gave too
much power to the assemblies Of the
colonies.
On the fourth day of July, ITO, um.

ENDS BOILER INSPECTION JOB
Governor Suspends Inspectors From
July to October I.


Denver.-Governor Carlson issued
an executive order suspending the op-
GRAFTON of the State Boiler Inspection
Department from July l to October l.
The suspension is ordered under a
statue authorizing the governor to
take such action when. in his opinion,
sufficient funds are not available for
the operation of a department or bu-
reau. 1t is limited to ninety days but,
according to the governor and his ad--
visers, can be renewed for successive
ninety-da periods after October /.
The order was issued to George V.

his two deputies, Joseph Humphreys
and William Crowley 1t contemplates

Incredible deeds of cruelty and fe-
rocity are said to have been commit
ted by the tories on this occasion,
and the whole valley was left scene
of desolation But 1t Is not true that
women and children were massacred.
On the fourth day Of July, 1880. con-
tinental currency notes were worth
two cents on the dollar. and, 1t was
said, "a wagonload of paper money
was required to pay for wagonload Of
provisions" Nothing could well give
a more vivid notion OF the desperate
situation of the Revolutionary cause
at that period.
On the Fourth Of July, 1926, Thorn
as Jefferson, third president of the
United States and author Of the Dec
laration of Independence, died, aged
eighty-three, just fifty years from the
date Of that historic document On
the same day died John Adams, Sec
ond president of the United States,
aged ninety-one.
James Monroe also died on the
Fourth of July, 1881, his age being
seventy-three.
On the fourth day of July, 1848, the
treaty Of peace with Mexico was pro-
claimed at Washington. And on the
same day the cornerstone Of the
Washington monument was laid with
great pomp and ceremony. Money for
building 1t had been subscribed by in
dividuals, but the sum thus obtained
proved SO far inadequate that the
structure remained a mere stump,
only about onethird its present
height, until 1881 when congress ap-
propriated the amount necessary for
Its completion.
There was similar and even more
important ceremony in Washington
on July 4, 1851, when President Fill
more initiated by the laying of a
cornerstone the construction of the
two great white marble wings of the
capitol. There was an impressive
| assemblage of dignitaries and an ora
ton was made by Daniel Webster,
then secretary of state. OF special in
terest was the presence Of few per-
| sons who had witnessed the laying OF
! the first cornerstone Of the capitol

Of September, 1898.

John F'ryth, an English preacher, was
burned at Smithfield for the heresy of

ance.
Cade had fled from England for
some crime; but after serving in the
7 French wars he went back to that
country and settled in Kent under the
assumed name Of Aylmer, marrying
a lady of good position. When the
men of Kent rose in rebellion, in
May, 1850, he led them. The rebels
made their way into London on July
8. A portion of the populace favored
them, but the opposing party gained
strength when Cade began to plunder
and kill. He retired to Southwark
and was prevented from re-entering
the city after fierce struggle on
London Bridge. Afterward he was
captured, and being severely wounded
died In the cart which was conveying
him to London.
July 4, 1897, was the date Of the

On the fourth day of July, 1S46, the
independence of California was de-
clared
There was at that time in California

about two hundred Americans, nearly
all of them men of exceptional vigor
of body and alertness Of mind. or
Mexicans there were 6,000 and the
aboriginal Indian population num-
bered perhaps 100000.
Capt John G. Fremont had been
sent to California on an exploring ex-
pedition year earlier. He was on
his way to Oregon when he was over
taken by an officer sent from Wash
ington with message ordering him
to wait and to cooperate with the Pa
cific squadron in case of hostilltles
with Mexico. The message had been
in writing, but the officer was obliged
to destroy it while crossing Mexican
territory, after committing it to mem
ory.
Accordingly Fremont returned to
California and took up his headquar-
ters at Suffers Fort.
A few days later, June IA, party
Of fourteen Americans organized a
~1,,tio hot
count, captured Sonoma and declared
war against Mexico. Needing flag
and not daring to use that of the
United States, they made one, not
out of an old lady's petticoat, as has
sometimes been alleged, but from a
Mexican rebosa or scarf Of un-
bleached muslin a yard wide and five
feet long. Along the bottom they
sewed strip of red flannel and in
the left hand corner they painted a
star in red ink. The middle of the
flag was occupied by picture Of a
grizzly bear, beneath which were the
words California Republic"

bear was rather crudely drawn, and
