MORRlSSEY RETAINS
PUEBLO ATTORNEY

Attorney Frank r. McAliney of Pue-
bio has been retained as attorney for
T. H: Morrissey of Florence in suit
that is pending in the district court
of Fremont county and in other suits
which may grow out of the failure
to establish the John E. Hesse bank
at Florence. Attorney McAliney was
made attorney of record in the case
by the district court of Fremont
county yesterday.
John E. Hesse. prominent in social
and financial circles in Denver and
Pueblo and formerly connected with
the Hibernia bank in Denver, went to
Florence the early part of the pres
ent year and organized a bank in
that city. Many citizens of Florence
took stock in the bank and paid their
money to Hesse, it is alleged. Another
bank in distant state in which Hesse
was interested became involved finan-
cially and Hesse left this state it is
claimed.
He had leased a building and in
stalled fixtures in his Florence bank
and it was ready to open its doors
when the crash came. T. H. Nor
rissey had been a booster for the new
bank and had invested in the stock.
He had also introduced Hesse to
some of the people who purchased
stock in the bank.
fafl 90
of the stockholders filed suits against
Morrissey. Mary Anna Zontini filed
suit for $4,000 against Morrissey and
engaged w. o. Peterson OF Pueblo as
her attorney. This suit was decided
last Thursday and a verdict for the
full amount sued for was awarded
Mrs. Zontini. Judge G. II. Wilkes
was attorney for Morrissey in this
case.
Other stock purchasers are threat
ening to file suits against Morrissey
and it is thought that there may be
litigation before the af-
fairs of the bank are finally settled.
Morrissey formerly resided in Pu-
eblo and is well known here. Aside
from his friendship ana trust in Hesse
he was not interested in the bank and |
suffered loss thru its failure to open |
as did all other stock purchasers.
Hesse was a well known promoter. |
a polished linguist, and vocalist OF
statewide reputation. He has had f.
dealings with many of the |
most prominent citizens of Pueblo
and was generally highly regarded

HIGH PRICED CATTLE
SOLD AT KANSAS CITY

D. c. Stockton of Kansas City,
brother of Truman Stockton, fat stock
salesman for the Cassady-Southwest-
ern Cattle company. sold for a
Nebraska farmer in the Kansas City
stockyards a few days ago twenty
two head of fat steers that brought
twelve dollars gross weight, said to be
the highest price ever paid in the
open market for beef cattle in the
United States. The cattle were pur-
chased by Fred Harvey Of Chicago,
the famous restauranteur and cater
er, for Christmas meat to be served
to his patrons in Chicago and his
chain of eating houses along the
Santa Fe railroad from the Lakeside
city across the continent to Los
Angeles and San Francisco. These
cattle brought twenty-five cents a
hundred pounds more than the pre-
vious highest price ever paid for such
animals.
Mr.. Stockton. who has been con-
nected with the Kansas City stock
yards for many years. is one of the
best statesmen in his line OF business
in the country.

MANY PEOPLE LOOKING
TOWARD COLORADO

The number OF inquiries now be-
ing received by the Colorado State

desiring information regarding the
opportunities for homeseekers and
investors in the state indicates a very
wide and general interest in Colo

immediate future a strong movement

ton. These Inquiries at the present
time are coming chiefly from the
states of the middle west the south
west and from Canada.
In answer TO classified advertise
ments that have been run by the
Board in daily newspapers and
named. an average OF about 100 in
quiries are being received daily by
mail. In addition to these there is a
constantly increasing number of
personal inquiries made at the office.
Among those making Inquiries is a
fair percentage of men of moderate
means who desire to invest in vari-
Gus lines of mercantile and other
business. and who ask information
as to where opportunities such as
they seek are to be found in the
state.
The Board is working on the
theory that a man who comes to
Colorado with his family and has not
sufficient amount OF ready money
to enable him to start properly In
the line of industry he desires, to
follow is a liability rather than an
asset to the state. They realize
that small percentage of such men

LARGE TRACT OF GROUND
IN SAN ISABEL FOREST

Denver. Dec. 16.-The secretary of
the local forest office. the classifica-
.tion of S25,939 acres of land within
the Sangre de Christie division of the
San Isabel forest as chiefly valuable
for forest purposes, and non-agricul
tural in character.
This division of the San Isabel for
est is situated in south-oentral Colo
RADIO, extending along the crest of the
Sangre de Christie mountains from the
Arkansas river southwark rs miles to
Sierra Blanca peak-the third highest
in Colorado. Fully 9S per cent of
the area classified is above the alti-
tudinal range of farm crops and too
rough and mountainous for cultiva-
and to the east the Wet Mountain val
ley, both of which contain prosperous
agricultural settlements.
The earliest history of irrigation in
Colorado includes the use of water
rising in this division. Five irriga-
tion bitches date back to 1862 while
others are recorded for 1S64-66 and
1870. The normal flow of every stream
and spring in this region has been
over-appropriated and immense sums
of money have been expended in de-
veloping irrigation and domestic wat
er for the rich agricultural settle
ments in the surrounding valleys. Ir-
-igation water is valued at from 81
600 to $4,000 per second foot in some
of the orchard sections, and there are
-et thousands of acres of land equally
as good which cannot be farmed thru
lack of water. Authentic data shows
rectly adjacent to the forest and Who'll

this division are valued at s3,342,14
and that they produced crops valued
at S773.S16 in 1915. From the Arkan-
sas river and its tributaries-a por-
ton of which rise within this division
100000 acres are irrigated while |
there is more than twice this acreage |
under existing canals. and many |
times as much more might be irrigat-
ed We're water available.
Settlement began in this division
as early as 1882, and approximately
5000 acres have been taken up under
the various agricultural land laws. In
1915 only 46 acres of this amount
were actually used for the production
of crops which shows its undesirable
ity for this purpose after the efforts
Of so many years to cultivate the
land.
Altho the scene of severe forest
fires in the 70's. the areas have been
gradually reforesting and this has had /
a beneficial effect upon the stream
flow. The value of the streams is in
creasing yearly for irrigation purpos-
es and any increase in the flow avail |
able is expected to meet an eager and
growing demand
Along the boundary are 1854 acres |
more which are better favored as to
altitude, and further examination
will be conducted to determine their
highest value.

PRESENT-PRoF. SLUTZ DELIV-
Erred MASTERLY ADDRESS ON
"THE LAW OF BALANCE"

The reception and luncheon given
by the board of directors compliment
tary TO the new members of the Y. M.
c. A. at the association building from
$50 to $50 o'clock Friday evening
was a very pleasant affair in all res
poets. Covers were laid for more
than a hundred guests; the greater
number of them being boys from IL
to Is years of age, who were brought
into the junior department of the or
ganization during the recent member
ship campaign.
The luncheon was served by
committee of young men and the
systematic. graceful manner in which
them unstinted praise and commen-
dation. Invocation was made by
Chaplain f. E. Cain of the peniten-
tiary and the after-dinner entertain
ment program was presided over by
John w. Emmerson as postmaster.
There were a number of vocal selec-
tions by a male quartette, consisting
of C. w. Van Patten, Fred Hubert,
Roy Thompson and John Dixon, a
monologue by Earl Fulkerson from
Mark Twain's "lnnocents Abroad"
and a magnificent address by Prof.
Frank d. Slutz, superintendent of the
Pueblo public schools. Every num-
Der on the post-prandial program was
good one and elected a deserved
applause. An ode to the 'Y" written
by the POSTMASTER. was sung by the
assemblage to the tune of "Auld Lang
Syne." "HDW
The subject of Prof. Slutz' address
was "Tbe Law of Balance" and he
handled it in way that was eloquent. |
philosophical and pleasing to an un-
usual degree. THE Law of Balance"
was applied by the speaker to the
Y. NJ. c. A, as an organization, which
he said, was symmetrical to an extent
possessed by few other bodies devot-
ed to the uplift and advancement of
young men. 1t stands for the develop
ment of the religious, physical and
intellectual faculties and endowments
of its members, continued Prof Slutz.
but does not exalt either of them to
the disadvantage of the others. Its
purpose is to promote all three of
them along uniform lines with a view
of encouraging by processes of growth
and evolution all of these qualities so
as to make the perfect man. strong
well-knit body conduces to whole
some conditions of mind and soul and
intellectually and religion in such
a tenement are apt TO be more vigor-
GUS than in one neglected in that res
pect. Too much stress, however must
not be laid on physical prowess, said
the speaker. but must be encouraged
in unison with the potentialities of
mind and soul.
Prof. Slutz closed by paying a
tribute to George Williams OF Devon
shire, England, the founder of the
Y. NJ. c. A, and the splendid work
that has grown up thruout the world
as the result of his initiative in
trying to lead men up to the higher
ideals of life.
