Tho people Of Colorado. and moro especially
thosn Of Dcnror, have for long timo felt tint
thoir iutorests linvo suffered greatly by reason
Of the war existing between tho Dirccturs Of
tho
UNION rAc1ryo AND KAasAs PACIFIC ROADS.
Tho representatives Of tlono two corporations
mot hero rocontly, 1t being their second meeting
this year. Tho first whs shortly after tho psesago
Of tho act by Congress which provided that scycso
penaltics ehnl 10 inflicted for n failure Or II re-
fukal On tho pnrt Of tho Companies to nrorato.
No comproln,Ho or mutual agreement was thon
entered into by the competing Companies bnt,
on tho other hand, cach sought to cripple tho
other more; aud this was principally donc by
tho changing Of time-tabes, aud tho running OF
oz-trnina between certain points, for tue carry
inn Of frolgAt. Tho failure to asroo ut that tilnc
workcd great losaca, not only to our mercantile
community and tho public ut largo, but to tho
contcndinS corporations. Tho second meeting
lnu however, resulted In all ailianco bctSoon tho
two Companies; and it vea manly duo to tho
exhaustion Of zach In tic cut-tlroat contest. tho
complaints Of Eastern ahippcrs, ut vol as those
OF rcsidcptso Of tho Territory, and thclr wholesome
fear Of tho enforcement OF tho law Of Congrcss
compelling them 10 ptorate, each with tho other.
Tho Kansus Pacific will eoturo moro Western
patronage, and Tho Union Pacific moro Eastern,
while tho Denver Pacific, connecting the two
bctwocn this city md Cheyenne, will bc greatly
benefited with Increased traffic over it's line. It's
stock will also ,iso greatly in ynuo and this in
matter Of much interest to our pcoplo, tho
moro especially as Atapahoe County owns
81, 900, ,00D worth Of it. Tho county will be ou-
ablol 10 eipk hor railroad bonda by tho aalo Of
this stock al soon as It is worth 80 contu on tho
doltor. md tbe will cancel tho county indebted.
