IRRIGATION DISTRICT
MEETING HELD AT OVID

SHINE fifty land owners and water
users of the Julesburg Irrigation
District gathered at Ovid on I ues.
day afternoon to discuss matters
of interest to all. On account of
unexpected business Mr.. b. d.
Parker, .Dr., the president, was
unable to be present and Mr.. Frank
SHERMAN presided at the meeting.
Messrs. G. w. Stockhum, Frank
Deich ,nl c. NJ. Robson made
tn ks on general irrigation matters.
The secretary presented Il series
of charts showing what had been
done in the district, both in using
water and the financial condition
of the district during the past
year. A general discussion fol.
lowed on the measurement of
water, the equitable distribution
of water in the three bitches and
other matters of general interest.
1t is possible that the meeting
resulted in no definite present
good, but it is a certain fact that
a good many important matters
were thoroughly discussed and rs
. result the board will have con-
siderable information and personal
ideas to use in the management of
the affairs of the district for the
coming year.
These get-to- gether meetings in
every line are we'll worth while
and there is no doubt but other
like meetings will be held in the
future.

We feel that We are much in
debted to Mr.. Stuart Kennedy
Duflield for his liberal donation
of books to the high school Ito
rary. Many of the books are on
agriculture, emphasizing dairying
and dry farming and are those
that are always appreciated by IL
school.
The students and faculty of the
high school gave farewell recep-
ton to Miss Snare one night last
week in the high school building.
Various games were played. Just
before refreshments were served
she was presented with gift from
the students, as an appreciation
for all she had done for them
and the school since she has been
among US.
II is an assured fact that the

The committee in charge of !.e
automobile contest wishes to call
attention to the fact that quite q
number of votes have been found
in the ballot tnx. which were not
properly made out, and in these
instances, the contestant loses the
voting value. Contestants should
be careful t" SEE that each voting
ticket is properly designated as
to the amount Of votes the con.
testant is entitled to, and the con-
tes'ant's name properly written
thereon. In several instances
voting tickets have been cast with
no amount punched. 1t will be
well for all contestants to note
that the merchant punches all
votes when they are given out so
that they will receive the full
voting value.

by the business firms whose

sent practically all lines of mer.

every effort to secure your trade.
1t is friendly rivalry between
the various contestants to see who
can enlist the best support among
their friends. No one individual
can come within gunshot of win
ming the prize by his or her indi-
vidual trading, but it will mean
the cooperation of numerous
friends IN clubbing their votes
for their favorite contestant. A
large number of votes have al
ready been polled, the contest
having been running a little over
two weeks-and there is about
six weeks yet to go. That isn't
very long, and it behooves all
that are interested to get BUSY

closing of the contest, that matter
having been left up to the Contest
Managers, who are Messrs. E. F.
Clayton, Glenn LaSalle and P. r.
Mcdowell. The contest thus far
has surpassed all expectations
and it is a foregone conclusion
that it is going to be almost sue
cesstul one. "Trade at Julesburg
and cast your votes for your fav-
orite" should be your slogan.
The business firms who are pro.
noting the contest are endeavor-
ing to do everything in a legiti-
mate manner to bring a larger
volume oftrade to our city. They
have large and select stocks and
you will be extended courteous
treatment. Don't forget to ask
for your votes when making pur.
chases-you are entitled to them.

New Rural Route
Is Contemplated

A new rural route out of Delta TAX
ing much new territory. making a
route some &c miles in length, is now
being contemplated by patrons of the
new as well as the old route
1t is proposed to extend the route
out over Garnet mesa, thence across
the Uncompahgre onto Ash and Cali
fornia mesas, thus enabling the pat
rons to receive much quicker service
in their mail distribution as well as
being able to be served in a quicker
manner with parcel post deliveries.
This new route would be very bene-
fetal to those now under the route
out OF Olathe who are compelled to be
a day behind in their mail from Delta,
as that route comes within about three
miles OF this place at the present time.
A petition is being circulated and
the necessary steps taken to secure
this much needed change in the pres
ent service.

L.A.Gipe Returns
From the East

L. A Gipe was down from Cedar
edge Tuesday. Mr.. Gipe had just re-
turned home from a trip east, where
he had been to dispose Of a couple OF
cars OF apples and some other pro
duce. Speaking of the prevailing high
prices he said: Il found that people
we're not buying more than rs or so
percent as many potatoes as at nor
NAL prices. Stores were selling only
three or four sacks a week to custom
ers, where they had before sold forty
and fifty sacks" There is no doubt
but this condition covers the use of
many articles. 1t is claimed tina. the
consumption of meats has fallen off
from 25 to 40 percent because of the
high prices. And people who get along
with less of these things are perhaps
better off. both in pocket and health.
There is one thing though it is hard
to retrench on-gasoline.

entitled the Butte Ditch Company ct
al. VS.. John Ashworth ct al. before R.
A. King as referee was concluded on
Saturday. so far as taking of testi-
mony and introduction of documentary
evidence. The case grew out of diff
ference of opinion of water users under
the system. the defendants claiming
that they were willing to pay their
proportionate share of the mainten-
ance and operation of the Butte ditch
located in the Surface Creek country
down to their point of diversion. but
stating that they were not willing to
contribute toward the operation of the
ditch below their dams and which
could not in any way effect their
rights. The Butte Ditch company was
Incorporated two years ago and this
litigation has sprung up since the in
corporation of the company. The case
will make a voluminous record and
many months will probably elapse be-

War Is
Declared

The determination of the President
eliminated in the declaration being
made.
The arguments, for and against,
are about as follows:
Those against war claim that fu-
ture history will not justify the dec
laration of war at this time, or of
participating in the European struggle.
Those in favor of war contend that
it is to protect American rights and
the dignity of the nation; that it is
defensive; that it's object will not be
to acquire territory, but to help break
an autocracy in Europe which has
become unbearable, and which has
sought to dominate the world.
The greatest hope at present is that
the world-war will very soon end,
which looks probable. The Central
powers of Europe who brought it
about, are SO spent at this time that
it does not seem possible they can
hold out much longer. with or without
intervention by the United States, and
the entrance into the struggle by what
is now the strongest nation on the
globe as an ally of the allies, it would
seem, should bring about early if not
immediate negotiations for peace.
1t is hard to tell, of course, just
what may happen. Should German
diplomats succeed in embroiling other
nations against the United States,
which seems their only hope, our part
of the war might become more serious.
1t is always more difficult to stop
war than to start one.
The effect of temporary war upon
the industries of this country are like
ly to be tremendous. Our every re-
source is at present taxed to produce
needed food stuffs. Today American
farmers have hard work to get help
even to plant their crops. With a
call for one or more millions of men
to arms. what will the situation be-?
And then will come the commander
ing if not the open confiscation of sup
plies along with everything needed to
satiate the NAV of wars wreckage.
There is a plenty in the outlook,
from any point you view it. The Euro
pean nations engaged are bankrupt
Before the war they were rich. Today
we are accounted rich. With us as
with them, it may be a case of the
fool and his money quickly parted.
But let us be optomistic and hope
that we may get out of it easy and
quick-that We may also be instru-
mental in helping to readjust many
better and more humane conditions.
