CHARLES WAGNER KILLED

Friends of Mrs. Margaret Wagner Of
this city were both shocked and griev'
ed last Friday morning when they
learned that her son, Charles Wagner
had died as result of an accident
which occurred in the oil fields in
Texhoma, Oklahoma.
Mr.. Wagner was twenty-four years
of age and had been employed in this
oil field for the past three months
Last Thursday morning while off duty
he was sitting on what is called the
"lazy bench' with the superintend-
ent IS son. The two arose and the son
of the superintendent passed in front
of the machinery, but as Mr.. Wagner
went to pass heavy piece of machin-
cry slipped or broke and flew, hitting
the young man in the pit of the stom-
ach. 1t did not knock him TO sae
floor, however, and when asked as to
his condition he replied that he was
all right and it would not be necessary
to send for a doctor. Despite his OBJ
jections, however, doctor was sum
moned at once, and it was found that
the patient was suffering from internal
injuries and would live but short
time. The best of care was given the
young man, but Of no avail, and he
passed away twenty-four hours after
the accident, but was conscious to the
last minute
The body, accompanied by Mr.. ALI
son, the superintendent, reached Glen
wood Sunday morning, and the funeral
was held Monday afternoon from the
Methodist church in this city, Rev.
Thos. Stamp officiating.
Mrs. Wagner was left widow a
number of years ago with six small
children to raise, and it has been with
much hard toiling that she was able to
bring her family to manhood and wo-
manhood
The deceased boy is survived by his
mother, three sister, Mrs. Nellie Miles
of Portland, Oregon, Mrs. Eta De-
laney of Murray, Utah, and Mrs. Ethel
Strangfield of Premera, Colorado, and
one brother, VIM. Wagner of Cattle
creek. All were present at the funeral
except Mrs Miles, who was unable to
attend on account of Illness.
Interment was in the Glenwood Gem
etery.

PREPARING TO MAKE SUGAR

Fred G. Holmes of Grand Junction,
manager of the Holly Sugar corpora
ton, has been in Glenwood this week
arranging for the opening Of the lime
quarry north of town, and looking up
some other matters in connection with
the sugar business.
The work of quarrying the lime rock
has already begun, and within a few
days shipments will be made to Delta
where the beets produced on the West
ern Slope will be turned into sugar,
the beet tonnage not being sufficient
this year to warrant the opening Of the
Grand Junction factory.
When the reporter suggested to Mr..
Holmes the planting Of larger acre
age Of sugar beets in Garfield county
for next year, he said the matter was
altogether up to our people. The com
pany will be glad to purchase our beeta
IL our farmers will only produce them,
which they can do i'm satisfactory
quantity and quality If they will only
f, make tho proper effort. What say you,

from Senator Phipps announcing that
Mr.. Thorson had been appointed acting

Discuss Business Pertaining
to Public Utilities and
Give Nice Program
Will COME Next YEAR

| 1t was the unanimous verdict of the
Colorado Electric Light, Power and
Railway association and the Rocky
Mountain Division Of the National
Electric Light association which met
here jointly in annual session this
week that Glenwood is an ideal place
to hold such conventions, and this
point was selected as the meeting place
of the associations for next year.
The sessions were all held at the
Hotel Colorado where, in an address
of welcome Monday morning, Mayor
w. G. Mcdonald extended to the Wis
itors the freedom of the city.
The papers presented at the sessions
were for the most part reasonably free
from technicalities, and Of an interest
ing character, and were considered
very valuable to the members Of the
associations represented. They were
educational in character and sought to
encourage a closer cooperation with
and better service to the public.
One Of the features of especial in
terest to members and visitors was an
illustrated lecture Monday evening,

With SPECIAL Reference to Intensive

Of the Illuminating laboratories Of the

An interesting paper presented Tues
day afternoon by j. E. Davidson of
, Omaha, vice president of the N. E. l.
A., showed that the electric light and
power industry is the third in volume
IN the United States, being exceeded
only by the railroad industry and the
packing industry, $500, 100000 being
the gross amount of the light and
power business annually.
II. o. Lobcll, industrial gas engineer
of the Henry L. Doherty company OF
New York, spoke on the future of the

City Adopts Report Of Denver
Hydraulic Engineer and
Advertises For Bids
MEANS Big PROJECT

Ever since the break last year in the
flumc supplying Glenwood with water
for domestic and fire protection pur-
poses there has been a growing feeling
that sooner or later, and perhaps SOON
er than the majority of our people re-
alize, it will be necessary to completely
rebuild our municipal water system, to
the end that similar mishaps may not
occur, and in order that the health Of
our people and their protection from the
fire fiend may not be further leopard
lied.
That appears to be the view the city
admin :stration took Of the matter when
some weeks ago. at the suggestion Of
Mayor Mcdonald, they spent an eve
ming in II discussion Of the subject,
and decided to employ Denver hy-
draulic engineer to make careful in
spcction of the present water system,
and advise such alterations or repairs
US were practical and that would pro-
tect the interests of the people for
many years to come.
Acting on this suggestion, the coun-
ell employed Maurice L. Miller Of Den
yer, hydraulic engineer of repute in
this line of work, and after making a
careful examination and survey of the
present system, Mr.. Miller made a re.
port, with plans and specifications Of
the new work, all of which was adopted
by the council at its meeting last week,
and an advertisement calling for bids
for the work on the new structure was
ordered published, copy of which ap'
pears elsewhere in this issue Of The
Post.
The plans prepared by Mr.. Mile,
and adopted by the council call for the
replacement Of the present wood hume
with tunnel through the granite Of
the mountain, and some metal flume
at the ends Of the tunnel, and include

VALUATION ON
SALES FIGURES.
HELDHARDSHIP
Member State Tax Board De-
clares Farm Values Have
Deprecated.

Valuation for taxation purposes based
on sales figures Of 1920 and 1921 would
work an interminatle hardship on prop
erty owners of the State, and particularly
farmers, according to John G. Brown,
member Of the State board>of tax COM
missioners. Although reports have been
received by the board as to actual price
brought by city real estate and farm
property In various counties Of the State,
this information merely is incidental
Many other factors are to be consid-
cred now in arriving at a true 100 per
cent cash value, he said.
As a general appraisement is being
made now Throughout the State, the tax
board is anxious a fair estimate Of what
represents cash value be arrived at, ac-
cOrding to Mr.. Brown.
Since 1920 tremendous decrease In
the value of farm products has been evil
dent, Mr.. Brown said, and the decrease
in the value Of produce has lowered the
value of farm land to a great degree.
No farm land Is selling now for a price
brought formerly, and it is evident the
revenue to be derived from a farm or
any other business largely determines its,
value
THE same thing would ke true Of city
property" Mr.. Brown said, IF it were
not for the fact that rents and incomes
from city property have not decreased
in proportion"
In the last two years appraisal for
taxation is believed to have been at an
average Of aboute75 per cent of the true
cash value. An increase of tax burden,
now with taxes already excessive, Is out
Of the question, although the State tax
board insists 1t is carrying out only the
State law in seeking to establish 100 per
cent true cash value whatever it may be.
"The matter of taxation has direct
bearing on the economic condition of the
country" Mr.. Brown said. 81 do mot
see how we are going to have any real
prosperity with the farmer fat on his
back. You can't take away IS per cent
Of the buying power and expect to have
good business.
II do not mean TO be pessimistic nor
optimistic but simply to look upon sit
uation as 1t is. How are we going to
have good business when half Of the buy
ing power is practically cut off,"
