Purely Local Causes. The suspension of the Colorado State Bank at Grand Junction is purely a local affair and the result of local causes. Upon the basis of Cashier McFarland's statement, the bank closed its doors in order to protect its depositors It had become involved in the financial tangle of the sugar plant, and, if its officers are biameable for anything. it is too much local enterprise and patriotism. The assignee will be able to straighten out the tangle and the bank will be enabled to resume on a safe basis. There is no suspicion of fraud or misconduet on the part of the bank or its officers. The leason of the suspention is, however, that there is a limit to which banks can go in aveisting industrial enterprises unless its resources are ample to swing the whole afair in case of necessity. This is seldom the case with small country banks, and great conservation therefore should be the rule. There are those who believe that because a bank is a bank its resources are unlimited, and it can continue to loan money on all kinds of local securities regardless of amounts. This is not true. The first duty of a bank is to protect the interests and funds of its depositors, regardless of all other considerations The Grand Junction bank appears to have ample securities of this kind, but these must be turned into money, and the claim of the New York bank disposed of, before it will be free to resumebueiness.-RockyMountainNowe

RECOVERS $67,500.00. A Compromise Effected Between As= signee McCurdy of Colorado State Bank and Stockholders of Sugar Company. Depositors Rejoice at Good News of Coming Dividend. If it isn't good news it ought to be that a compromise has been effected between Wililam McCurdy. assignee of the defunct Colorado State bank and the stockholders of the Colorado Sugar Manufacturing company, whereby there has been turned over to William McCurdy the sum of $30,000 in cash and $75,000 worth of the stock of the newly organized sugar company, in lieu of 3800 acres of land and all the holdings of the Colorado State Bank, against the sugar company. It has been further agreed by the present owners of the Sugar plant that they will take at any time during the year, if the assignee of the bank so desires, the $75,000.00 worth of stock of the company held by the assignee and as part of this consideration, for 50 cents on the dollar. If Assignee McCurdy should desire to accept the promise of 50 cents on the dollar for the stock, he would be able to secure for the stockholders of the bank all told from this deal, $67,500.00 or almost enough to pay dollar for dollar on the deposits of the bank. This compromise which Assignee McCurdy has effected with the principal stockholders of the Sugar company, was secured through the tact and discretion of a certain gentleman of this city, who will be named at some future period and to whom credit is due for urging a suit against the stockholders of the Sugar company to protect the rights of the bank. The suit, however, was not brought, but a threat to sue led up to the compromise which has brought to the assignee of the bank this great sum of money, amounting to $30,000 in cash immediately and another $37,500 in cash, if the assignee agrees to accept the new company's offer for the stock. This compromise was a splendid one for the depositors of the bank. For a time it did not look as it they would realize much more than the dividend already declared. Now it is certain that a goodly portion of the money that the depositors had in the bank will in time come back to them. The 3,800 acres of land was practically valueless to the bank as an asset. In the hands of the Suagr company it can be made to earn something in raising beets. The consummation of this compromise is to be heralded with much pleasure to the depositors. They can see in securing that amount of money another dividend on their deposits. The new company which has effected this compromise is composed of some of the stockholder in the old company and Judge Alfred Hand of Scranton, Penn. It will be remembered that it was exclusively published in this paper several weeks ago, that Judge Hand had become largely interested in the Suagr company. It was alsostated that the factory would be run the present year. The Sentinel is informed that it was hoped to effect the present compromise sooner, in order to attempt to start the factory in operation this year, but as this was delayed all that can be done is to make thorough preparation for the work next year. This will be done at once.

Good All Around. The result of the compromise in securing at once $30,000 in cash and as much more in prospect for the depositors of the Colorado State bank. will be another dividend which will almost wipe out the claims of the depositors against that defunct institution. There will be practically $75,000 in cash to be distributed among the depositors, SO that what was looked upon as a calamity, when the bank first failed, will have the edge taken off of the disaster, by the expected dividends which must come under the present status of the bank's affairs. But there is a better satisfaction than this in securing this compromise and settlement. It practically settles the disputes in relation to the control and management of the Sugar company, SO that work can go forward toward its rehabilitation and operation. The parties who are now in control propose that the plant shall be operated to the best advantage possible. It has not been a success so far; this is well known and the reasons therefor. The new company will start with the costly experience of other managements to avoid and there is every prospect that the company will run its factory at a profit next year. No reason whatever of lack of productiveness of the soil in raising sugar beets could be considered a cause. The primal reason being that the people were not tutored in raising beets and they believed they could not be classed as a profitable crop. The first factory in the state being located here, it was to be expected that it would meet all the difficulties that a factory might be subjected to. These piled up on it until there seemed no limit to obstacles. However, those factories on the eastern portion of the slope are beginning to experience just such difficulties of securing labor to cultivate beets, as the Grand Junction factory first experienced and they have troubles of their own. There is everything now favorable to the successful operation of the factory. The company owning and controlling the factory is a strong one, composed of some of the original stockholders, with Judge Hand of Pennsylvania and his associates, SO that there is the best prospects ahead for the Grand Junction Sugar factory.

County Board Meeting. The board met at ten o'clock a. m. pursuant to adjournment. Present were James H. Smith, William Ditman and James U. Harris commissioners; C. F. Caswell attorney and B. P. Blair deputy clerk. The mniutes of the last meeting were read and approved. On motion the treasurer was instructed to cancel tax sales 5386 and 5387 on account of erroneous assessment and sale and a warrant for $16.20 and another for $16.20 were drawn on the contingent fund in favor of Delaplain and Crosbv the legal holders, in payment thereof. On account of erroneous assessment for the year 1901 for capital invested in manufacturing to the Colorado Sugar Manufacturing company, $60,000 in valuation was abated. On account of erroneous assessment for the year 1902 for improvements and personal property to the Colorado Sugar Manufacturing company $80,000 in valuation was abated. Mr. Harris introduced the following resolution which was seconded by Mr. Ditman and passed by the board: Whereas, heretofore it appeared to the board by the reports of the county treasurers that $17,536.76 had been by them deposited in the Colorado State bank which thereafter assigned for the benefit of its creditors and that such deposits became unavailable as funds and, whereas heretofore suits against the treasurers and their bondsmen were ordered to be brought to recover such amount and Whereas, $3,266.80 of said amount has since been paid and. Whereas said treasurers and their bondsmen now propose to pay $3266.80 and assign to the county all claims against the bank in settlement of said amount, and to avoid further litigation cost and expense and, Whereas it appears to the board that such sum with the further amount that may be received from the assets of said bank in accordance with the exhibit presented herewith would probably be greater than the net amount that could be received by prosecuting said suits, And it furtherappeared to the board that the stated proportion of said unavailable funds has been fully paid and it further appeared that the city of Grand Junction and School District No. 1 approve a settlement on the foregoing basis and it further appeared that it is for the best interest of the county. city, towns and all school districts, that said settlement be made. It is ordered that such sum be received in lieu of any sum that might be recovered by the prosecution of such suits and that the district attorney be requested to dismiss the same without prejudice and that such sum be received in full payment for or on account as all liabilities of thetreasurers, W.C. McCurdy and Geo. J. D. Williams and their respective bondsmen SO far as the same have accrued by virtue of such monies deposited or contained in the Colorado State Bank. On motion the board adjourned to meet Thurdsay, June 4th, 1903 at ten o'clock a. m.
