TItU~SDA Y, A UG. 1, 1901.
The eepublican party all over the state i
has taken new life and everything points
to a big republican victory this fall.
Good, boys, keep up the fight. A little
more work and the state of Colorado will
~e back in the republican column where
she was a few years 8go, before the peo-
ple were led away by such reformers as
Petterson, Chipley, Bill Griflith and
othere.--Gunnison Tribune.
Residents on the San Luis valley
branch of the D. & R. G. railway have
patiently submitted to all the incon-
vienoes of connections at Salida and Ala
mcaa and now as a recompense the man-
ager of that system has ordered a change
in the time card of the standard guage
compelling people living at intermediate
points between Alamoea and Salida to
take the morning train for Denver or
lay over 24 hours in Alamosa. It IS ex-
pected that another change will soon be
made in the time card, for not only local
traffic but traveling men are sending up
a roar that reaches to heaven.--Press.
They Struck it arch.
It was a grand thing for this commu-
1dry that suca an enterprising firm as
Lord & Wilcox secured the agency for
Kmg's New Discovery for Consumption,
the wonderful remedy that has startled
the world by its marvelous cures. The
furor of enthusiasm over it has boomed
their businass as the demand for it is
immense. They give free trial bottles
to sufferers, and positively guarantee it
to cure coughs, colds, bronchitis, asthma
croup and lung troubles. A trial proves
its merit. Price 50 cents and $100.
The Irish Language.
Our language is the only thing that
remains to us after the struggles of cen-
turies. Our liberty and our own land
have been taken from us. While that
language remains it will ever act as a
Masonic bond to link a people whom
misgovernment has exiled all over the
globe, and who would otherwise be lost
in the multitude and lost to their ooun
try. Our national poet has said: "The
language of nation's youth is the only
easy and full speech for its manhood,i
and for its age, and when the language of
its cradle goes, itself craves a tomb."
and again: "A nation should guard its
language more than its territory, 'tis a
surer barrier and a stronger frontier than
fortress or river."
The language and the mind of Ireland
mutually reacted upon each other. While
the language was in the first instance the
product, the growth, of the Irish mind,
leaving in its idioms and forms of ex-
pression distinct chara0teristice of the
minds which evolve it, the minds of fu-
ture generations of Irishmen were shap-
ed and developed by the language, by
its expressive beauty, its prayerful and
religious tendencies, its mystic charms;
they grew in the natural order, forming,
each one, a link m the chain of na-
tional development, each the inheritor
of the wisdom, the cult~l~e, the refine-
ment of those preceding, each drawing
from the store house o~ the past, and
thus has been developed, not in one gen-
eration, not by forced instruction, but by
slow degrees, through nearly twenty
centurias, the lrish mind and the Irish
language. The Irish mind was, even in
pagan times, essentially religtous, chaste,
and idealistic, docile, dutiful to parent%
.passionately loyal whether to earthly
chief or heavenly King, self-sacrificing
and uneeltish--a fittmg soil on which to
now the needs of Christianity, a soil
which has brought real enduring fruit,
not its semblan~ or the blossom to de-
cay on the appearance of the storm of
self interest or self indulgence. That
mind, with it its simplicity, im sincerity
and its devotion to the cause of religion,
has come down to us unstained, in a
language which today~ in the wilderness
of irreligion, moral depravity, selfishness
and mammon worship, speaks only of
the beauty of a simpl~ life, relating tale
after tale to exemplify the worth of self-
sacrifice, of chastity and purity. Our
language breathes of the time when men
and nations were younger, more beauti-
ful and less materialized than they are
today.--From "The Gaelic Revivial in
Ireland," by Thomas O'Donnel!, M. P.
in the American Monthly Review of Re-
views for August.
Arrangements are being made to have
another ball game at Villa Grove in the

"A youth named ~enson, who is a
brother-m-law of Joe D'Avignon, and is
farming Joe's place this year, was arrest-
ed the first of the week charged with
criminal assault on a 13 year old Mexi-
can. Henson's home is in Conejos coun-
ty and his family live in one of the Mor-
mon settlements near La Jars. The
girl is said to be half witted. Henson
denies the charge and says it is purely
spite work. The case has been set for
hearing before Justice Clare on next
Monday.
To Save Her Child.
From frightful disfigurement Mrs.
Nannie Galleger, of La Grange, applied
Bucklen's Arnica Salve to great sores on
her head and face, and writes its quick
cure exceeded all her hopes. It works
wonders in sores, bruises, skin eruptions,
cuts burns, scalds and piles. Cure guar-
anteed by Lord & Wilcox, druggists,

Returned.
A pleasant little dadoing party, com-
posed of Mrs. Oscar Wllkins and two
daughters, Prof. Dipp and wife, J. D.
HIltbrand, Perry Graig and mother, re-
turned from the Conejos Monday even-
ing after a ten days' camping. The fish
were plentiful and Prof. Dipp proved an
expert fisherman. We had always yon-
sidered the professor a very truthful
man and a man of veracity, but when he
starts in to talk about the fish in the
Conejos it is like his.cornet playing, good
music, but most all wind, aed demon..
strates the saying of the psalmist when
he said in haste, "all men are fishermen."

It Saved his Baby.
"My baby was terribly sick with the
diarrhoea, we were unable to cure him
with the doctor's assistance, and as a last
rasort we tried Chamberlain's Colic, [
Oholera and Diarrhoea Remedy," says
J. II. Doak of Williams, Ore. "I am
happy to say it gave Immediate relief
add a complete cure." For sale by the
Saguache Pharmacy.
Sitngre de Cristo Showing up Well.
Florence, July 26.--Frank Groenen-
dyke, auditor of the Rggent mining and
reduction company, who has been in the
city for the past few days,stated that the
mining region along the Sangre de Cristo
range is displaymg more real develop-
ment now than ever before, and many of
the prospects now being worked are go"
ing to be producing mines before the fall
season nets in.
The Regent company, which owns
about forty-tire acres, comprising five
claims, made a shipment of five tons of
ore this week from one of its propertms.
The ore was mined at a disadvantage and
sent to the railroad by pack t~ain, thence
shipped to the smelter by rail and after
treatment charges, freight and mining
expenses had been paid the company had
the net sum 0f $33 per ton.
Mr. Groenendyke says there are other
properties in that locality, owned by
other companies, that will do equally
well, if not bstte5 and he predicts for
that district a renewal of vigorous min-
ing developments, such as was exper-
iencad in the early days.
Eruptions, cuts, burns, scalds and sores
of all kinds quickly healed by DeWitt's
Witch Hazel Salve. Certain cure for
piles. Beware of counterfeits. Be sure
you get the original--DeWitt's. Sa-

Pointers on Ditch Ratlng.
In view of the complications which
arise on account of ratings of ditches
when the same are not in good condition,
Addison J. McCune, state engineer, has
sent to the superintendents and water
commissioners a circular letter of in-
structions, which is in part as follows:
"No ditch, unless in'good condition as
to ratmg flumes and as to the ditch it-
self, especially as to the presence of sand,
can be rated. There being but one point
where conditions are stable, and that
point being where the ditch is free from
sand and sediment, it m useless to make
ratings under any other conditions.
Therefore, when a rating is required and
this office is requested to have it done
you will inform the owners of this re-
qmremeut, and where possible you will
see personally tha~ this condition exists
before the representative from this office
ia called upon to make what is in some
! cases a very hard and expensive trip.
"I would state further that many of
the ditches have not now proper sand-
gates, these must be put in and the best
methods possible adopted for disposing
of the sand and sediment which of nec-
I assity enter the ditch.
"I would suggest that when a repre-
sentative of this office visits your dis-
trmt you have all the ditches that need
a ratmg m condition for the work to be
done."~Newa.
Mrs. George Oreer and children went
over to the ranch in the San Luis valley
on Monday to remain for several weeks.
Mr. Greer remains in Salida for a while
yet as be is afraid he will be put to work
if he goes over now while the hay is be-
ing harvested.--Rocord.

"~omething New Under The Sun."
All Doctors have tried to cure CA-
TARRII by the use of powders, acid gas-
es, inhalers and drugs m paste form.
Their powders dry up the mucuous mem-
branes causmg them to crack open and
bleed. The powerful acids used m the
inhalers have enttrely eaten away the
same membranes that their makers have
aimed to cure while pastes and omt-
ments cannot reach the disease. An
old and experienced practitioner
who has for many years made a close
study and specialty of the treatment of
CATARRH, has at last perfected a
treatment which when faithfully used,
not only relieves at once but permanently
cures CATARH by removing the cause,
stopping discharges and curing all in-
flammation. It is the only remedy known
to science that actually reaches the af-
flicted parts. This wonderful remedy is
known as "Snufflels",the Guaranteed Ca-
tarrh Cure and is sold at the extremely
low price of one dollar, each package
contaming internal and external medi-
cine sufficient for a full month's treat-
ment and everything necessary to its per-
fect use.
"Snuffles" is the only perfect catarrh
cure ever made and is now recognized as
the only safe and positive curs for that
annoying and disgusting disease. It cures
all inflammation quickly and perma-
nently and is also wonderfully quick to
relieve hay fever or cold in the head.
Catarrh, when neglected often leads to
consumption Snuffles will save you if you
use it at once. It is no ordinary remedy,
but a complete treatment which is posi-
tively guaranteed to cure catarrh in any
form or stage if used according to the di-
rections which accompany each package.
Don't delay but send for it at once, and
write full particulsrs as to your condi-
tions, and you will receive special ad-
vice from the'discoverer of this wonder-
full remedy regarding your case without
cost to you beyond the regular price of
"Snuffles" the Guaranteed Catarrh Cure.

Baea Land Grant Go~s ta, Sar'~ Luis Com-
pany.
Baca land grant No. 4 is the property
of the San Luis Valley Land and Min-
ing company, according to a decision ren
dered by the United States circuit court
of appeals at St. Louis.
The decision involves the ownership of
about 100,000 acres of land and settles
litigation over a number of valuable min-
ing claims. Miners had taken up a num-
ber of claims and resisted attempts to
remove them on the ground that they
were not within the boundaries of the
grant. Officers were sent out at one
time to evict the settlers, out not before
there had been a clash between the min-
ers and representatives of the company,
in which a number of cabins were blown
up. Suit was brought in Pueblo and the
right of the San Luis valley company to
the land sustained. An appeal was taken
and the court of appeals has sustained
the decision of the Pueblo court. £his
ends the litigation.
