HAS DECLINED CALL TO FIRST
BAPTIST PULPIT IN
THIS CITY.

DIR. J. E. Skinner, who was recent
ly called to the pulpit of the First
Baptist church Of this city, notified
the congregation Sunday that he
could not accept their invitation, but
would remain in Nashville. This was
the third invitation that had been
extended to him to take the local pas
torate.
It is matter of sincere regret that
DR.. Skinner could not come to Column

bly, fitted for the work here.
AS DIR. Skinner cannot come, an eff
fort will be made to get another man
to fill the pulpit Of the First Baptist.

Grover is TO hold a meeting next
Monday for the purpose Of considering
ways and means for this portion of
Weld county, securing an equitable
valuation for tax purposes. II is pro-
posed to make the move concerted
action on the part of all this portion Of
Weld county and Raymer has been in
vited to sand delegates to attend this
meeting. The date of the meeting un-
fortunately comes on the same day as
the school election, so We doubt wheth-
er delegates from other towns will be
able to attend, but such an organlza-
tion is along right lines. Not only
would il be a good thing for the differ.
ent towns to work togethca to see that
they do not pay more than they should
in taxation, but the question of having
the portion of taxes expended on the
roads of this section and other things
done that should be done towards the
development of this part of Weld
county. Ii would be good thing to
have a permanent organization formed
Of representative from all the towns
along the Burlington. Such an organ
ization to act unitedly for the advan-
tage Of each town and all the towns.
If We can all get together and pull to.
gether there will be no trouble about
getting some recognition for this Sec
tion. W, should like to see something
along this line grow out of the Grover
