MIDLAND ORDER
oAUsHs QUERIES

Inquiries from lawyers and shippers
directly interested in the cessation of
operations on the Colorado Midlan
railroad, coming to state officials yes
terdoy, indicated that the stay granted
by the supreme court, preventing the
owners from going ahead with the dis.
mantling, is not clearly understood.
The supreme court, in granting the
application for review of the junking
case, ruled that all proceedings b.
stayed. The question has arisen as TO
whether the service is affected as well
as the junking proviion of the order.
Lawyers seem to agree that the stay
prevents the dismantling, but are not
clear as to whether the operations
should be restored pending the final
disposition Of the case.

HAIL DAMAGES FRUIT
IN MESA COUNTY

Grand junction, Aug. 6.-Sweeping
through belt half mile wide and
five miles long, with it's anchor point
at Bovine, six miles west of this city,
smashing across Redlands mesa, cross
ing the Grand river through the Pomo-
ma section, across the three fruit
ridges, on the Highline project of the
United States government, the fiercest
storm on record of rain and hail last
night did damage to the fruit crop of
the Grand valley, estimated by the local
Fruit Growers association at between
$4,000 and 100000. Grain fields on
Second Fruit ridge were demolished.
Apples and pears, the latter fruit
ripening, were badly Ritted by the
driving hail. While the fruit is not a
total loss, its market value has been
reduced at least 25 per cent.
Some scattering peaches on the Red
lands and on the Fruit ridge were badly
cut and bruised by the storm, but for
the most part the great peach crop
escaped damage.
Palisade section, where the vast
peach crop is raised, escaped the hail
entirely.
Fields of oats were dashed to the
ground and today it was said by grow
ers that the loss of oats would reach a
high figure. The fury of the storm
was well spent before the grain acreage
was reached. Some fields, however,
are in ruins.
Tomatoes being grown for the can
ming factories of the valley were badly
damaged in the Fruit ridge section.
Of all the section affected, Second
Fruit ridge has suffered the greatest
damage. Fruit lies in great piles under
the trees. Green fruit on the trees is
almost pulp, the result of the driving
hail.
The crippling of the Redlands mesa
irrigation project is borne out by in.
vestigation. The torrent sweeping
down the draw from No Thorofaro
canon, picked up the 200.foot flume and
its anchoring bulwarks, weighing sixty
tons, and crushed the vital part Of the
irrigation system into wreckage.
The flume carried water to develop
power to pump the irrigation water to
the project acres.
Manager W. A. Frueau6 Of the Red
lands stated that it would require ut
least five weeks to rebuild the wrecked
flume.

PRAISES OUR sANITARIUM

patient at the Glenwood sanitarium
has sent a communication to the Post
in praise of the care and treatment he
has received while in the sanitarium
and complimenting most highly those
in charge of the institution for the
efficient manner in which this much
need establishment is conducted.
Among other things he says: at
secs to me that better care and treat
ment could not be afforded in any in
stitution of this kind. Surely the
Glenwood sanitarium is blessing to the
people of Glenwood and q great credit
to the management in every way.
"The motto of this institution is
efficiency, and that is the great step
ping stone to their success and the rec
ord, both medical and surgical of, that
institution is an everlasting monument
to its credit.
"In my opinion have never seen
in this house chance for grievance,
for, business is conducted with dis
patch and discipline. The management
undsrstands that rule broken means
% much loss Of power in conducting
any business. A nurse, being a product
Of sooiety cad factor to be always
respected il placed in very unenvis-
bls occupation. They are moved from
the finesse of life and brought in con-
tact with human society under the
most trying conditions, which with the
havoc of time moulds a nature and
character Of immense gravity which is
quick to perceive and suffer endurance
for a noble cause to which they have
consecrated themselves for humanity's
cake.
"If we will carefully and fairly con
slider these things I am sure We will
all agree that the Glenwood sanitarium
is very efficient and that it is doing
great work for humanity.

aLENwooD WAR POEM

9LENWOOD WAR POEM
Major s. J. DeLan of this city is the
author of war poem, copies of which
he sent to General Pershing, Lord
Kitchner and President Poincare of the
French republic. Major DeLan has re,
| ceived letters from each of these indi-
viduals acknowledging receipt of the
poem and thanking him for the same
Major DeLan's letter of transmittal
to General Pershing and the poem to
which this letter refers are as follows:
Glenwood Springs, Colo.
August 81, 1917.
To Major General John J. Pershing,
| Commander in Chief Of the American
Army,
Paris, France.
Sir:
Asking your indulgence for infring,
ing on your valuable time, but believ-
ing it will be interesting to you, have
taken the liberty of enclosing copies
| of letters to me from Lord Kitchner
and the President of the French Re-
public, and also a copy of the commu-
/ nication to which these letters refer.
When the drive was made by the
German Army on Paris, 1 wrote song
called the "WAR SONG OF The
ALLIES,' "a copy of which I enclose)
end sent copies to President Poincare
and Lord Kitchner.
decided not to publish the song at
that time as I considered it would be
contrary 20 the desire of the Presidera :
relative to neutrality. Under the Lres-
| ent circnms.ar. es the song and cor
respondea'c may be interesting to you,
as it has been to a certain extent, prn-
phetic, and its use by our Army in
France would cement the feeling of
friendship that has always existed and
so greatly enhanced by the landing OF
your Army on French soil.
President Poinacre will remember the
incident, as you will note by the letter
of the French Ambassador that it is
written by the instruction of the
French Government.
Again asking your indulgence for
trespassing on your valuable time, I
remain
Respectfully and sincerely yours,
s. j. De Ian.

In the district court last Monday
Judge Shumate ruled against Miss Eva
Meeney of Rifle in her contention that
she had right to close the old county
road which ran across her ranch for
thirty years and to place the road en-
another portion of the ranch where it
would cause her less inconvenience but
prove a great deal more inconvenient
for her neighbors on Graham mesa who
were obliged to travel that way to
reach the town of Rifle. Judge Shu-
mate ruled against Miss Meeney and
ordered the opening of the original road
but gave the lady ten days in which to
erect fences to protect her growing
crops. Several witnesses from Rifle
testified in the case.
