to save time.-Kersey Midget.
1t is a pity that delegates to the

their trains through, the Uintah road
lost two cars of gilsonite, one of mer-
chandise, and caboose, by a snow

snow chance to slip. The cars were
carried down the mountain side dis
tance of 1000 feet.-Meeker Review.
A>Congressman Hlliard, also member
of the Denver school board, is at home
and says he is going to remain there
until the deadlock is broken and the
board elects successor to DR.. Carlia.
That deadlock ought to be kept locked
indefinitely. The average Democratic
congressman is of more value to his
country at home than in Washington.

the top of the derrick.-DeBeque New

We have always been great admlrer
n Tom lyman, warden of the peniten-
tiary, but if we were governor of this
state we would fire him and appoint
Republican in his place just to show
some of the Democrats we could. They

the appointive offices of the state. We
say to the victor belongs the spoils,
but have always made an exception to
Tom Tynan.-Hotchkiss Times.

question before I was converted, be-
cause l don't use such language any
more. .''-Ex.
