The proposed herd law is causing
much agitation throughout the state and
upon close examination of that clev-
erly worded document the agitation
seems justified. Its passage would nos
only work tremendous hardship on
the stockgrower, but it would cause
succession of expensive elections which
would mean needless addition to the
burden taxpayers are already bearing.
There is law upon the statutes now
which affords ample protection against
trespass.. Colorado's prosperity rests
upon the livestock industry, and every
good citizen should join the movement.

Sam Martin found a pocketbook near
the Rabbit Ears road at his ranch while
haying last fall, according to story
that was told at Hot Sulphur Springs
the other day. The purse contained the
mildewed remains of one five and three
one e-dollar bills. About six years ag)
Francis Martin, son Of Mayor Martin
of Kremmling, started horseback with
some other boys to go to Steamboat
Springs. After leaving Sam Martin s
ranch, Francis lost his pocketbook cor-

found last fall. The currency has been
sent to Washington for redemption at

The Democratic newspapers of the
state have been hammering the lights
out of Governor Carlson for kicking out
some of the Democrat appointees and
putting in Republicans. Every Demo-
crat who held an appointive job refused
to let go when the governor appointed
man to take his place. Now the SILL
preme court has ruled that Governor
Carlson was completely within his
rights and that the. Democrat office
holders will have to let go and give the
other fellows chance to get some of
the political pie. What will the Demo
crat newspapers have to say now? Will
they still have the gall to claim that
Carlson is all wrong?-Eagle Enterprise
1t is understood that the proposition
for the compromise of the Kansas
Colorado water suit involves payment
of fifty cents an acre on each water
right in the Arkansas valley. Should
the case be fought out to the end it is
very probable that the cost of litiga-
tion would be greater than this sum,
and the outcome of the suit would be
problematical. As matters now stand
the pending suit is cloud on the title
of every water right in the valley.
These water rights are growing in value
each year, and if their title can be
made unquestioned by the expenditure
of the sum named the investment would
appear to be good one. The PROPOSE
tion will soon be submitted to the
stockholders of the various bitches in
interest, and it is well for the farmers
to give the matter careful study so that
they can act for their own good when
the question comes to vote.-Lamar

Eugene Grubb of Carbondale tells of
a shrewd farmer in Idaho named Jacob
son, who, while his brethren last fall
were performing = wild scramble to
get rid Of their potato crops, quietly
began gathering in spuds and storing
them. He acquired from his neighbo:s
about 200 carloads, paying therefor
from 40 to so cents a hundredweight.
Jacobson sold those same potatoes re-
Gently at prices ranging just 800 high
er than what he paid for them. This
was one farmer who followed the sys-
TEN employed by the professional buy
ers. The brokers maintain perfect
information organization. They are
conversant with the visible supply Of
potatoes; they know how many pota-
