THERE'S A REASON

Last week in the county court de
linquency and dependency case was
tried before jury, the interested par
ties living in the Divide creek country.
The Post has been asked why we did
not print an account of the affair.
There are three good reasons for such
failure and our apparent failure to
thus give the news.
In the first place the case was in
progress when the Post went to press,
and very little information can lie
given out concerning any case until
the same has been terminated. Then
again, there is state law which in
such cases prohibits the publication hy
the papers of the name or photo of the
child involved or otherwise identifying
the person. And in the last place. this
trial was too nasty, and showed too
much of the inhuman propensities of
some humans to make it available as
good reading for Post readers or any
other respectable and decency loving
citizens.
Now, there are the reasons, and you
may take your choice. We don't mind
telling you, however, that the jury
found that the father was not furnish,
ing a fit home for the girl and she was
taken from hiS custody and placed in
a good private home in Glenwood
pending investigation by the court as
to permanent disposition of the child

NEW IRRIGATION ENGINEER

B. G. Bradley, irrigation engineer
for irrigation division No. 8, created
by act of the last legislature, was in
Glenwood Thursday in conference with
A. j. Dickson, the engineer for division
No. 5, out of which the new division
was recently carved.
When he left for his home Mr.. Brad
ley carried with him the records Of the
state which belong to the new division.
Division s comprises the watersheds of
the Green, the. White and the Bear
rivers, and as much Of it is quite in ac-
cessible from Glenwood Springs, max
ing it practically impossible for the
people of that territory to be given
proper service from this office, it must
be admitted that the recent legislature
did wise thing by dividing the ter
ritory.
Mr.. Bradley is very agreeable gen
tleman, and as he is thoroughly famil-
lar with the territory and the needs OF
the people hs will doubtless bs Of much

IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE

Last week M. DeMerschman brought
to this office gold watch which he
had picked up by the roadside. He
left copy for reader advising the
owner to call, prove property, pay for
the ad and take the watch. Mrs. A. Il.
Moore, who had lost her watch on the
way to Glenwood, scanned the columns
of the Post and, seeing the advertise
ment, described her watch which bad
her maiden name engraved upon it.
The transaction was simple, and by
the expenditure of fifty cents the lady
recovered watch which was a present
in her girlhood days, and which she
valued very highly for other reasons
than its time keeping properties.
Moral: It always pays to advertise in
the Post.

NO REDUCED TOURIST RATES

No reduced tourist rate from West to
East has been authorized by the ma
tional railroad administration for this
summer, and none is contemplated. No
concession will be made the westerner
who may chance to want to spend his
summer at the seashore instead of in
the mountains
''Full fare or stay at home,' is the
word of the railroad administration
Later there may be some slight re-
duction to Atlantic City from Chicago
and St Louis, say the local representa-
tives of the rate-making board, and
California has an all-year rate which it
will employ in sending its people 10
the East, but Colorado will receive no
eastbounl concession in any form.
The explanation is given that there
is not enough real tourist travel from
the West to the East to warrant cut
in price. The rate-mskers hold that a
cut, if made, would only reduce the fare
fer the regular commercial travail,
which would be the same under any
rate, whereas an excursion rate has fer
its primary object an increase in the
travel-the creation of new business.
The westbound rate for Colorado
points does not go into effect until
June 1, but already the travel is ex-
tremely heavy. The 129foot coun.e-
in The local ticket office of the railrod,,
administration is lined all day long
and summer travel both to the East
and the West has begun, Indifferent to
the rates made or to come.
