War With Mexico
Starting as in AS

Outrages along the border and
on the property of Americans
who had obtained concessions in
Mexico stirred both countries.
Mexico was full of military
chiefs rivaling for national lead
ership.
An American army was sent to
the border.
Clash followed on American
soil and American soldiers were
killed.
The war was fought without a
formal declaration of war by
congress, President Polk simply
declaring Il state of war existed
by reason of MeXico's acts.

Rifle Range Near Golden
Point of Interest to Autoists

Rifle Range. near Golden, has
been a point Of interest to auto
lists and many others, who have
been fiocking there by the hun
dreds the past week. Those
who go are impressed with the
scene that is being enacted in
contemplation of war with Mex
leo. There is an expression of
strong determination on the
faces of the officers and privates
alike. While they make show
Of gayiety there is shadow Of
seriousness that convinces the
observer that they are not going
with the idea of having a pic
mic, but that they expect to rem
der real service to their country
and if need be lay down their
lives on the field Of honor. The
work of checking up the equip
ment and turning it over to the
Federal officers is a tedious and
tiresome job. The medical eX-
aminers are also very busy and
they are doing their work very
thoroly, apparently, as SO far
about 20 per cent of the appli-
cants have been rejected. These
are mostly among the young
boys who are not rugged enough
for service in that rugged
country the invasion Of which
will mean the sacrifice of the
lives of many of our nobiest and
braveSt young men.

Some argue that artificial

this may be, there certainly is
one advantage in artificial incu-
baton in that the newly Matched

important thing and where the

Saturday A Day OF Grace

Saturday will be a day of
grace at the Enterprise Office,
July list coming on that day. 1t
will be more convenient for peo-
pie to come to town on thai day
and for that reason We will eX-
tend the dollar subscription to
include that day. After. Satur-
day of this week the price Of
this paper will be $50 per year
to all corners. We have found
this necessary as everything else
is going up in price and anyhow
the weekly paper that is not
worth more than SIC per year
nowadays is not worth carrying
home.
We thank one and all for their
promptness in paying up andre
newing and assure them that
our efforts will be to give them
a better paper for the better
price.
The editor takes it for granted
that all those who have not re-
sponded to the call for renewal
at the 81. 90 rate before July |,
or have not notified US to discon-
tinue the paper are satisfied with
the raise in price, and will pay
the same without question. We
have made it plain what the pos
tai laws are on the question,
that those who allow the paper
to come to their address without
ordering it stopped are liable for
the subscription price. We have
had very few such notices and
from the interest shown in the
paper we believe that our read
ers are allowing the paper to
come because they want it and
that they expect to pay for it at
their convenience. If we are
wrong in this matter, dear read
er, we want you TO put us right,
as we cannot afford to send you
the paper if you do not want it.
1t hurts us financially as well as
morally. The word of a person
who feels that the paper is being
| forced upon him, does more
harm than the loss of his name
| from the list. We do not want
to be in the position Of forcing
our paper upon any one, and a,
the same time we do not want tc
cut anyone off who wants the
paper and will pay for it at theil
earliest convenience.

Mrs. Geo. MuenCh
Answers Summons

Mrs. George Muench died at
7:30 Wednesday morning after a
long illness from cancer. Her
illness dates back two years or
more since it became known
that she was a victim Of that
dread disease and she submitted
to an operation which for time
seemed to relieve her suffering
somewhat. But this was only
temporary and she tried the
baths at Idaho Springs and
every means known to medical
science in an effort to overcome
the disease but with all of these
and with all the tender nursing
by her devoted husband and
those skilled in the profes sion
the call came for her to go to the
land which knows no pain.
Mrs. Muench was a patient
sufferer and during her years Of
health and strength she endear-
ed herself to all those who knew
her by a constant thoughtfulness
of those about her. Naturally
she was surrounded by sympath-
izing friends who did what they
could to make her suffering less
to bear.
Mrs. Muench whose maiden
name was Miss Nellie E. Mac
gaurn, was born February %,
1875, at Black Creek, Wisconsin.
Having been bethrothed to Geo.
J. Muench previous to his coming
to Colorado, she came from Wis
consin and married him in Den
yer on July 22d, 1903, coming to
Arvada Immediately, where Mr..
Muench had established himself
in the Arvada Meat Market.
TO this happy union was born
a daughter, Buelah, who is now
IL years old. Besides these be-
reaved ones she leaves her
father. Patrick Macgaurn, and
five brothers and three sisters
as follows: William, Green Bay,
Wisconsin, Michael, Long Lake,
Wisconsin, Timothy, Black
Creek, John also in Wisconsin,
and Frank at Centralla. Wash,
Mrs. Albert Little. Black Creek,
Mrs. Jane Asseles, Wausau,
Wis.,, and Mrs. Fred Marks,
Shiocton. Wis.
The funeral will take place
from the Berkeley Catholic
church, of which organization
she was a devout member, at 10
o'clock Saturday morning. The
remains will be taken from the
residence on Stoke Avenue at
$50.
Interment will be made in Mt
Olivet cemetery, under the d.
rection of Burton & CHM.
The pail bearers will be J. T..
Kennedy, H. J. Juchem, d. F..
