San Juan Basin Will
Become Greatest Oil
Field in America,
Says a Noted Expert

H. w. Cornell. nationally known
newspaper writer and now field repres-
entative of the Kinney Coastal Oil Co.,
arrived from Denver recently and is now
at the Hog-back oil fields. MIR. Cornell
spent about three months in the field
before Christmas and is thoroughly ac-
quainted with that great section.
''The Department of the Interior at
Washington is absolutely swamped with
applications for oil leases in the San
Juan basin. and special agent is to be
assigned to this territory to help straigh-
ten out the situation" MIR. Cornell said.
II look for the basin to become one of
if not the greatest producing fields in
America within a short time, and Du-
range is bound to reap rich benefits
therefrom. In fact, this is the most
promising section of the western coun.
try at this time."

is said that there will be considera-
BILE activity in railroad building in
the San Juan basin before the close
of the present year.
Dolores is in position to profit
from this activity, but in order to
make the largest possible gains, her
citizens must plan and work. When
boy wants to 60 fishing he does
not set tin can down in the garden
and wait for the angle worms to
climb into it. He gets spade and
goes after them. II we want any
thing to come to Dolores, we will
have to go after it.

DOLORES IN THE LIME LIGHT

There has scarcely been time in
the history of our country when
there were such great building
activities in our cities as there are
today. Carpenters are receiving one
dollar an hour and bricklayers elev.
en- dollars for eight hours, and there
are not enough Of either trade to fill
the demands at these wages. And
all this when times are considered
bad throughout the country.
There is only one expla nation for
this condition, and that is that the
cities have men who do things re-
gardless OF good or bad times, men,
who when they contemplate dull
times, start something going and
forget about dull times.
The blacksmith, who when he
had nothing else to do, hammered
his anvil and every once in a while
went out OF his shop into the street
and mopped the sweat from his
brow, will be remembered long af.
ter the fellow who laid down his
hammer. let the fire die out on the
forge and went out into the streets
bemoaning the dull times, is for
gotten.
If planning and executing i'm
provements during dull times is a
good thing for the large cities it is
also a good thing for the smaller
towns and communities. When
there is something doing people for
get about hard times. The spirit of
advancement and Improvement is
much more contagious than the
smallpox, and when once started it
is carried along by its own moment.

Never were the prospects for the
San Juan country brighter than they

IT is claimed that the Colorado
Bar Association will place before
the twenty-fourth general assembly
several bills touching upon law re.
form, judicial procedure and legal
education. The suffering public
will certainly welcome any reform
that can be made in our courts and
the manner in which criminal cases
are handled. Our courts of Justice
are the foundation of our republic.
and our form of government is only
secure so long as our citizens have
respect for our courts. But under
the present system, where money
and INSCRIPTIONS attorneys play
such great part. we cannot ex-
pect to long hold the respect of the
people. 1t is the common accepted
fact today that the man with money
or rich friends can do almost any
thing, to even committing murder
and get by without any danger of
punishment. This is a deplorable
state of affairs and one which de-
mands the earnest thought of every
law-abiding citizen.

Portland Detective, Down and
Out After illness, Is Enriched

SEATTLE, Wash, July sandy
G. Vaughan, for fifteen years a de-
tective on the Portland police force
and for five years q King county
deputy sheriff, IL not a movie actor,
but for the last six months he has
been living in a regular cinema see
mario. The only trouble with
vaughans life story for motion pic
lture purposes Is that it is too i'm
probable.
Vaughan was forced to give UP
all work six months ago on account
Of rheumatism. He didn't have very
much money, but he had saved
enough to tide over this emergency.
So for three months he took the
Fadvice of the doctors and Just
rested.
Finally he was pronounced prac.
ticaIly cured. He went back to
work, this time at the State re.
formatory at Monroe. He worked
Just one day and then his aches
and pains came back worse than
ever.
Things Look Black.
This time things looked very
black indeed for Vaughan. He went
to Soap Lake, fifty miles from
Wenatchee, and although his rheu.
matisn improved, his finances
didn't. Finally he was down to
where he was wondering just how
much longer his finances could
hold out.
Then the fireworks began. A tele.
gram from Sorosa, N. NJ, informed
Vaughan that an uncle whom he
had never seen had died, leaving
him heir, with his brother, to a.
cattle ranch of more than 5000
acres and live stock valued at thou
sands Of dollars.
More Wealth Comes.
Scarcely had he recovered from
the shock when another telegraph
messenger appeared. This time it
was an aunt in London, England,
who had died. leaving him a won
derful country home near London
900. The aunt. Mrs. Mary Leigh.
four years old.
For many years Vaughan has
wanted to be a hotelkeeper, and
now he is going to build a. sixty
five.room summer resort on the
shores OF Soap lake and settle
down.
And one large English country
home and one 5,000-acre ranch on
the Rio Grande are for sale to the
highest bidder.
