Bonus Bill Passes by Two
Votes Above the Required
Two-Thirds,
pHIPps APPROVES VETO

Washington, May 19.-The soldiers
compensation measure, which has been
the subject between congress and two
successive presidents was repassed to-
day by the senate over the president q
veto, the vote being SO to 26.
This was margin Of two votes
more than the necessary two-thirds ma
jority as compared with 81 more than
the necessary two-thirds when the veto
was overridden by the house Saturday.
President Coolidge made a futile
last-minute effort to have the veto sus-
tanned by calling to the White House
seven Republican senators. Four Of
these, who had previously voted for
the bill, cast their ballots to favor the
executive.
Altogether only five senators who
supported the bill on first passage
voted against it today when the presi-
Dental veto was overridden: Colt Of
Rhode Island, Keyes of New Hamp-
shire, Mckinley of Illinois, Phipps Of
Colorado and Sterling of South Dakota.
All were at the White House confer
ence with the exception of Colt,
The last move of the administration
was to seek delay in the vote until Sat-
urday. Reed, Republican of Pennsyl-
vania, asked unanimous consent to de-
fer action, but was met by cries of
"Vote! Vote!" from both sides of
the chamber.
Senator Lodge of Massachusetts and
other administration leaders joined
Senator Curtis, who was in charge Of
the bill, in voting against the presi-
dent.

FIRST OIL ROYALTIES
RECEIVED BY LOCAL OFFICE

On May "a, 1924, the Glenwood
Springs land office received the first
oil royalties paid in connection with
the recent discovery Of oil in the Mof-
fat structure near Craig. The report
to the land office shows that the total
production to April l, was 10,329.26
barrels, valued at $s,232.s0, of which
the government receives twenty per
cent royalty, amounting to $1,646.56.
1t is understood that this is from test
production only and not the regular
flow of the well, which has been
capped except for brief testing periods.
Ninety per cent of the government
receipts under the mineral leasing act
from lands outside naval petroleum re-
serves are divided between the state
from which the minerals are taken and
the reclamation fund, the state receiv-
ing about one-third.

order was made that Vidal should sup

faithfully he would do, and on this
promise he was given his freedom, but
he has failed to obey the order of the

her many friends that she may soon
be restored to normal mental condi-

AMERICA MUST
CHANGE HER VIEWS

Chicago, May 1S.-America is a great
nation in the sense that Carthage,
Egypt, Greece and Rome were great,
but it is up to her to stay great by
avoiding the errors which brought the
others to ruin. Fred B. Smith of New
York, chairman of the committee of
one thousand which recently published
the letter on prohibition by DR.. Charles
W, Elliott, declared tonight in an I'D
dress before the Sunday Evening club.
"'The greatest friend of America
today is not the one who brags the
LOUDER he said. "The one who serves
her most, in light of history written
in the next hundred years, is the one
who sounds a note of warning. If
America is to stay great, her people,
particularly her young people, must
have profound realization of spiritual
values. If our flag is to stay up, it
must be held up by good people with
moral insight.
''If America is to stay great, the
popular view of economies must be
changed, the view that a man may
make all the money that he can, and
then spend it just as he pleases. There
is something sacred about private
ownership.
"America is the first nation to be.
gin life with constitution. When q
man declares that he will not obey
certain laws of that constitution Just
because he does not like them, he com
mits treason. If the laws Of the con-
stitution cannot be enforced then the
instrument is null and void and we
are facing revolution in this country"

Governor Smith and DR..
Butler Cause BootIeggers
to Take Heart
ASToN|sAES WORLD

New York, May 1s.-Governor Smith
and DIR. Nicholas Murray Butler, pres
ident of Columbia university, tonight
were declared to be responsible for
"the two hardest blows ever struck at
respect for law,' by United States
Attorney William Hayward.
Speaking from the pulpit of the
James Methodist Episcopal church in
Brooklyn, the federal official charac-
terized the governor as a man who had
behind him ga twenty-five year record
as champion of the saloon" and assert
ed that 1.-THE bootleggers had taken
great hearth at DR.. Buffers utter
ances against the eighteenth amend
ment and the Volstead act and his
recent declaration before the Missouri
society in new York that the prohibi-
tion law was not enforceable.
Assailing DR.. Butler for his speech
Ill OOlulnDus, OuIo, III JuHudiyy 1890
in which the college head also at
tackled prohibition, he said it had con-
stituted "condolation of crime and en-
couragement of criminals" which was
''as heartening to the bootlggers as
it was astonishing to most of the
world
"This Speech" said Mr.. Hayward,
land the repeal Of the MullanGage
law (the New York state enforcement
act) were the two hardest blows ever
struck at respect for law"
He then turned to Governor Smith.

done more to encourage disobedience to

fertile SOIL OUR
GREATEST ASSET
(By A. W. Luce, Field Manager,
Greater Colorado)

Greater Colorado)
Colorado has produced billions in
precious and semi-precious metals, yet
our greatest asset is in our fertile soil,
enriched by our Rocky Mountains for
a million years. Colorado is one of
the few states whose rural population
in the decade ending with 1920 increas
ed more rapidly than its urban popula-
tion. One Of the leading states in ir-
rigation, 1923 found Colorado secure in
its primacy as the greatest beet sugar
producing state in the Union.
Colorado's 1923 sugar crop of $780,
900 pounds was sufficient to provide
8 pounds for every man, woman and
child in the United Safes. Abundance
of alfalfa is increasing dairying and
making cattle raising profitable. Ad-
ans and Weld county cabbage and
squash have no superior in the Union
Greeley spuds are as well known as
the famous editor, who wisely said:
''Go west and grow up with the coun
try"
Rocky Ford melons and cantaloupes
have national fame. The Arkansas
valley from Fowler to the Kansas line,
the San Luis valley and the Western
Slope are as fertile as the Nile valley
in Joseph's time. Peerless Palisade
peaches, Delta and Paonia Johathans
and the entire Western Slope produce
marvelously rich crops of spuds, onions
800 bushels per acre-and small fruit.
Colorado celery has no equal. San
Luis valley pea fed lambs invariably
top the market. Head lettuce in high
er attitudes is increasingly profitable.
The great plains counties, with the city
of Sterling true to its name, thrive
with bumper crops of corn, wheat, bar
ley and sugar beets. Fort Morgan g
sugar factory carried off the banner
this year. Wallace's Farmer of Iowa
credits Fort Morgan with producing
the record corn yield of the Union,
100 acres produced 100 bushels per
acre. Morgan county grew the largest
sugar beet in the United States,
weighing 23 3-4 pounds.
The great plains, the South Platte
valley, the northwest plateau, the San
Isabel region and the San Juan dis
trict each constitute an inland empire
destined in time to make Colorado one
of the richest states in the Union.

 Up to the present term, Seward has been ably represented, and has secured her share of Territorial pa tronage At the last legislative term the fish hatchery was secured for Grouse lake by stenuous work on the part of our senator, and had we not been represented this enterprise would not have been secured.
