Fourth St. \ It Is said that the whole North' Fork country is coming down to | Grand Junction the week of the fair, i There is plenty of room for them and 1 thousands more. O • O i The fall rains will soon be-over I and then most delightful weather will follow. It will be just in time \to make it. most pleasant for the I annual big fair. O • O It does make a good deal of dif- | Terence the kind of people you have 8 in a town. Don't let anyone at-lfi tempt to make you believe otherwise.'! If you would hearken to some people | I ‘tows would be pasturing on Main K j street. Keep on working and let the 1 I knockers talk. O ® O I \Ve don’t w-onder in tlie least thatj£ the Japanese are highly chagrined j I over the peace terms made by their 18 emperor. It was anticipated that I I their belief in the divinity of their f Mikado would close their mouths to I 8 almost anything but the Jap- I anese have learned along different 1 in- : £ ♦■s, beside those of being a first-class | warrior and seaman. The upheval in I f Tokio shows that the Japs are mad 2 at the term# of peace which were ac-1 j cepted from a nation which they 1 fought and conquered. It would not 1 be surprising that a civil war would f I follow the degredation occasioned by 1 the terms which Witte accepted from 1 the Mikado. • O • President Roosevelt won’t stand;] for grafters, If he knows It. F. W. ] Palmer, public printer, must step; S down and out. He is charged with j j various things, which makes the pres- j J ident believe he is not the proper' ] person to be entrusted with such i I an Important position. Very recent- [1 ly the government discovered a great 3 big grafting scheme in the printing ] office. A change was to be made from I hand composition to machine work. ■ In some manner a firm that Is sell ing an-imperfect typesetting machine; got in its work and an order aggre gating several hudred thousand dol lars was given, as against the Mer gent haler, the only great machine on the market today. When it wns dis covered that the government was about to install a machne not fully perfected there was a great outcry and the Mergenthaler company will now get the order. • o • The Herald-Democrat, of Lead ville, which Is so miserly with ItH commendation, has descended from its high perch of isolation to say that it believes that the Pueblo Chieftain, since its change of mnnagemnt, bus been worth 25 per cent to the up- j building of the city of Pueblo. The Herald-Democrat has piaff'd the es timate too low. Since I. N. Stevensj took hold of the Pueblo Chieftain and began to boom that town, the town’s;! business is better by fifty per cent ! tnan it wns and this is our honest I judgment. Under the stimulus of uj| live 4jud active paper any town is' I better oIT. Take the newspapers out I of a city and let the general public ; I know that the town Is too dead to I support a newspaper and you won’t ! I have long to wait for the town's I funeral. « • O • A woman, the wife of a well known 1 1 farmer, was arrested yesterday in I this city and fined for shop-lifting, i I It was not the first offense of this I woman. If the store keepers are to j I be believed alio has carried on aJ I systematic system of thievery for;! some time past. If this had been a I first offense, it might have been I designated by the polite term given- ] to those who are caught theiving- - I kleptomania. This woman had no I need to steal, her husband is amply I able to pay for the necessities of her- | self and her household. This woman I certainly did not retlect on what the " consequences to hf'rself nnd family | would he if she were caught in thlev- j , ing. She ran a great risk, a risk that would brund herself and her children in any community for life. ! It is well that her husband was able to make up to the storekeeper the j amount of the cost of the goods, taken, ns it has partially shielded the woman’s reputation. • o • We have often wondered whether It made tlie tearß come to the eyes of anyone beside ourselves, when they I saw marchng past the old veterans of the civil conflict, with their battle-! scarred war lings nnd other parapher- j nalla that showed the wear and tear; of that momentous conlllct. We never could help tears coming to our eyes. We well remember the bi- ; Icentenlal parade In Philadelphia in; ISS2, when the veterans of Pennsyl-} vania came down the magnificent Chestnut street, with bands playing, ami tlags waving. We saw hundreds; shed tears then nnd they did not try to hide them. The papers stnte that! thousands could not keep back the tears when the old veterans came marching uiong. No one need be ashamed for such marks of deep * feeling. Every tear we can shed y will uot begin to repay the debt of l the republic to these men of ’62.

AAAAAAA A .T. • • • * » » WHAT'S THE MATTER. Does anyone know what is the mat ter with the Colorado Midland and the Rio Grande roads that they don't run a half dozen excursions through the state? There are more than eighty thousand visitors in Denver. They are not all members of the Grand Army and many thousands would like to see more of Colorodo than Denver. But we will get a very small percentage of that great numb-, er- to visit western .Colorado. With such a crowd in a city on the eastern border of many states, the railroads running in those states would carry that crowd or a big proportion of it into every section of the state through a low rate which would be irresistible. The crowd would be re garded as just so much legitimate possible business to work upon, to secure to take trips through- the state. Bui it is noi so hcie in Coiorado with the railroads. All that is in tended is to get them to Denver and the rest of the state may go to the devil, for all the people of the capital city or the railways seemingly care. No very low rate which would offer an inducement for the crowd to take a trip throughout the state has; been offered to the thousands and | of course few of them are making trips into the state’s interior. The • same old hold-up $15.00 rate is to be, maintained. Apparently some one or ( or more in the passenger business j in the state roads are rushing their! senile age and have not the grit or j ambition to go out for business. There have been three big con-, ventions in Denver this year. So far as the people of western Colo- j rado are concerned, it has known j little of these conventions and has bencfltted little thereby. There seems! to have been a desire to make them j hug Denver as close as possible. As we have said the railroads in some states would have hauled those peo ple through the state, if they would had to make a price ridiculous In its comparative smallness to regular rates. Either the Colorado roads don’t want business or something is loose in their business conduct somewhere. We well know that had not the Chamber of Commerce of this city been lulled to sleep by fine answers and honied words, a rate to the reg istration in this—city which would have been secured which would have brought thousands more people to Grand Junction, than did come. When President Jeffrey was ap pealed to he quickly sent representa tives to this city, but it was then too late to make any change in the rates. We have considered and do con sider yet the rate that was charged to this city was an unwarranted hold up by the roads running to this city, which will eventually return to them to their own injury. —Only a few days to prepare for the great Mesa County fair. —No. 3 was an hour and thirty minutes late this afternoon. —H.
