SUBSCRIPTION RATES: One Year $2.00 Six Months 1.00 Three Months .50 Advertising rates given on application. PUBLISHED EACH THURSDAY. Entered as second-class matter March 9, 1900, at the post office at Walden, Col orado, under Act of Congress of March 3, 1879. One of the brightest, newsist dalies that comes to this office is the Loveland Register. The editorials aro always worth reading, and the news is given in a condensed readible manner. A more efficient or conscientious man for mayor than A. E. Butler it would be hard to find. He has in the past, and will in the future, receive the support of the council, and citizens, whohaveevery jaith in his integrity and and ability. The New Era was a year old last week This country is roomy and we expect to grow some in the years to come, how ever, we feel that the paj>er is a pretty healthy yearling and justifies our pre sumption that there was room hero for a live newsjMiper. The hog wash dished up in the Denver Post by a woman named Winifred Black is about the limit. Of course, we don’t have to read it, but sometimes by mistake a few lines are scanned and we have a pain for an hour. Why a paper that only pretends to ha sensible can staud for such rot is beyond our ken. Such stuff is calculated to make one con denm the whole staff as either old men in their dotage or driveling idiots. We note the Wyoming Observer, of Saratoga, is edited by a ranchman, by name I. M. Conness, a man of small stature,still narrower mind and large am bitions. Mr. Conness is a man troubled with chronic liver complaint,in fact he’s “agin” the government, the sort of a man whose self importance will not al low him to admit of any reason or intel ligence in another man’s argument. We would suggest as a remedy a liberal ap plication of Ivory soap. There are two policies open to the cattlemen of North Park on the forest reserve question, one of non-resistence— letting well enough alone, and even giv ing in here and there for the sake of peace: and the other an aggressive one insisting that the forast officials shall carry on their duties as servants of the public and not dictators. The trouble with working for the government is that the employee, unless he is ex ceptionally well balanced will be attack ed with a case of the swell head, become haughty and condecending in his man ner, and in other ways give evidence of the fact that he is one of the main stays of Uncle Sam, sort of a God-given gift to the people, and if you do business with him it must be as he says or not at all. They are not all this way ofcourse, but more frequently than not it is the case. However,in the grazing question. ST. PATRICK’S BALL Given by Camp No. 382. W. O. W. COMMITTEES: £ General Ar- fE. J.

Hall & & Friday, March 15, 1907. the few large stockowners are opposed to an aggressive campaign. Whenever a stockman with capital behind him wish es something he goes to headquarters and intimates in a quiet manner what he wishes. He usually gets it. The small stockman, when he tries the same method, also gets it—but in the neck. It is only by open and aggressive action that the small stockman secures conces sions and favors, and this of course ex plains why the powers behind the throne so earnestly advocate a cautious policy and fervently sty “let us have peace’’. Dance at Baldwin’s. A very pleasant little dance was giv en last Friday night at the home of M. Baldwin near Rand, where about seven ty-five were present to join in dancing to the melodious strains of the waltz. An excellent basket supper was pre pared by the ladies present, while we understand that Mr. Maine, of Walden, was highly complemented on his excel lent imstry work, which was a groat treat to all, who partook of the feast. Those who attended the dance from Walden were, Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Post, Mr. and Mrs.D. K. Smith, and Miss Ma rie Callicotte, while we were unable to secure the names of all present. Nevertheless they all report a good time and are willing to go again. Early Morning Fire. Careless handling of gasoline iu the kitchen of the Johnson hotel cafe and one of the cooks striking a match and firing the fluid was responsible for about SSO worth of damage iu the rear of that room at 4:30 this morning. For a time the fire looked somewhat squally, but the fire department was quickly on the scene and the lire was confined to the rear wall of the room, where several panes of glass were broken, the sash burned and other damage done. The building is owned by J. F. John son and the loss is fully covered by in surance. Mrs. Ehmke runs the cafe. The hotel was full of guests at the time of the fire, and were all awakened but none of them wore injured and there was no excitement to amount to any thing.—Laramie Republic. Birthday Party. Surprise parties as a rule are a misno mer, the oue who is supposed to be sui prised usually knowing as much as the ones getting it up, but the surprise party given by Mrs. Meda Williams and Prof. Preston Tuesday evening in honor of the nineteenth birthday of Miss Mam mie Riggen, was certainly a success in every way. Miss Riggen having retired before the guests arrived. The guests, to the number of about thirty, gathered at the homo of Rev. and Mrs Trowbridge, and about 8:45 started for the Riggen residence. A member of the party was stationed at the large dinner bell in the yard, and at a signal all hands turned loose. The first impression Miss Riggen had. was that the house was on fire, and started down stairs in haste, but returned to her room in greater haste,when she heard talking and laughter in the par lor. The guests were divided aud charades were the order of the evening. One very pleasant feature was several in strumental solos by Mrs. Morris Fliniau whose efforts are always appreciated by lovers of good music. Ico cream and cake wore served the guests at eleveu o’clock and the party broke up at midnight, after a most en joyable time. Miss Riggen received many handsome tokens of remembrance from her friends. Thirteen Lucky.
