SALMON TROUT FOR
THIS COUNTRY

IS. E. Land of the state game and
fish department arrived in Glenwood
Wednesday with $4,000 baby salmon
trout which he shipped from Oregon
aud which will be taken to the state
hatchery on Mitchell creek and fed
until they are of sufficient size to JUS
tify placing them in one of the dig
lakes near here.
These are the big salmon trout found
in the Columbia river and used prin-
cipally for canning purposes and they
are being brought here as an expert
ment in the hope that if they do we'll
in this climate many of our big lakes
may be stocked with them.
Mr.. Land explained that these fish
are migratory and therefore it would
MT do to place them in the Grani
river as they would soon find their way
into the ocean as he thinks they would
find their way down the Colorado
Grand canon. The experiment will be
wStched with more than ordinary inter
est.

stewardship and explained something
of the workings of his office.
Governor Carlson as the last speaker
was greeted with deafening applause
by the big audience which overflowel
the opera house. The governor con-
fined his remarks principally to the
prohibition question and gave many fig
ures to show the benefits under the
new order of things. He handled the
question almost entirely from an eco
nomic standpoint, showing that utterly
aside from any sentimental reasons, the
dry program is popular because it pays.
While making the prohibition ques-
tion the chief topic of his 40 minute
address the governor dwelt briefly upon
the benefits of the workmen' IS compen-
sation act and other laws passed by
the recent legislative session. The
meeting was pronounced by all, regard
less of party alignments, as the most
successful gathering held in Glenwoo1
in many years.
After an hour spent in the famous
vapor cave the party left on train No.
for Montrose where they participated
in the big Washington banquet at
which $50 people were feasted.

WHO WAS aLENwooD SUICIDE?

The identity of the man whose body
was recently found hanging to tree
on Lookout mountain is almost as mucn
of a mystery today as the day Mr..
Herkey made the CHASTITY discovery.
There was found in one pocket a
portion of an Eagles receipt, bearing
the name of the secretary Of the aerie
at Florence, but the portion of the
paper bearing the name of the member
Mr.. G. L. Hudson left on No. 6 eWd-
The Florence lodge was notified, but
the secretary replied that he was not
aware that any of their members had
been reported missing.
There is suspicion about Glenwood
that the body is that of Arthur Anglia,
well known to many of our citizens,
the young man having worked in Glen
wood and also for James Downing of
Spring Valley, for Amos Ralston aud
some of the Roaring Fork farmers.
Anglin has not been seen in Glenwooi
for several months and as he was
known to be terribly addicted to liquo:
it is thought by many that while in p
morose condition as a result Of a spree
he might have decided to end it all.
However, Anglin has a sister, Mrs.
Myrtle Emerson of Kansas City, and
while she has not seen her brothet
since last August when he left Kansas
City and started west in search of
work, she has written Undertaken Far
mum to inquire if the dead man had
one front tooth missing as she says was
the case with her brother. Mr.. Farnum
has advised her that no front teeth arc
missing from the skull Of the suicide.
Yesterday there came an inquiry con-
cerning a young man who has been
missing for some time from Crested
Butte and correspondence has started
that may lead to some definite informa-
tion, but thus far the clue to the man Is
identity is as indefinite as the day
he was found hanging by the neck 70
the pine tree.

cause of this default that Mrs. Heber-
ling had him cited into court again
this week.
After he became convinced that ig-
noring or defying the court was liable
to be fraught with serious consequences
Mr. Heberling employed Judge Noonan
to advise and defend him and the judge
and Mrs. Heberling's attorneys, Kings
bury & Mayes, soon drew up an agree
ment which Heberling signed, provid-
ing that he pay the costs of court and
sheriff, pay Mrs. Heberling $lOO cash
and make a payment of $40 month
until the defaulted amount is taken up
and then continue his regular payments
as per court order.
AS security for the faithful exeeu-
tion of this agreement it is signed, not
only by the defendant but by his
brother, John Heberling, his partner,
Mr.. Chambers and also by the gro
cery firm of Heberling Bros. & Cham
bers.
When this agreement was presented
to Judge Smith he hesitated bit, i'll
view of past experience in the case,
but agreed to approve the contract, and
suspended the fine, during absolut,
compliance with the contract.

water powers on national forests tt1m
the experienced and competent forest
service, and gives it to the interior de.
partment, thus entailing duplication
and needless expense.
In my opinion, there is undue care.
lessness as to the disposal of public re-
sources at present in Washington. The
water power legislation now before the
senate is too favorable to the men who,
as Secretary Houston's admirable r,.-
cent report shows, control through 1S
corporations more than one-half of the
total water power used in public SER
vice throughout the United States. The
water power men charge that conserva.
tion hampers development. The Hous,
ton report shows, on the contrary, that
the most rapid development is in the
national forests, where conservation IS
best enforced. On the other hand, 100
public service corporations own and are
holding undeveloped and out of use an
amount of water power equal to four
fifths of all there is developed and in
use by all the public service corpora
tions in the whole United States.
AS 1 said in an open letter of Jan
uary go to the President:
"Natural resources lie at the foun-
dation of all preparedness, whether for
peace or for war. No plan for nation
al defense can be effective unless it
provides for adequate public control of
all the raw materials out of which the
defensive strength of a nation is made
OF these raw materials water power is
the most essential, because without
electricity generated from water power
we cannot manufacture nitrates, and
nitrates are the basis of gunpowder.
There are no great natural deposits OF
nitrates in the United States as there
are in Chill. 1t would be folly to al
low the public water powers, which can
supply this indispensable basis of ma
tional defense, to pass out of effective
public control.'
A concerted movement is on foot to
break down the conservation policy.
Feeble resistance or none at all is be-
ing made by official Washington. I'm
less the press and the people come to
the rescue, the power interests are like
ly to win. This is public matter
wholly removed from political partl-
zanship. Your help is needed, and that
of your paper. For nearly ten years
this fight for the public water powers
has gone on. We ought not to lose
it now. .. .u

administration and dwelt at great
length on creating sentiment that
will bring about the enforcement Of
law and order.

toast Colorado. He told Of the
achievements in the industrial, social,

to the dangers to American trade at
theSclose of the war, and how best to
meet the conditions.
There were five hundred and fifty
people seated in the banquet hall, aud

This mixture removes such surprising
