a Daring Railroad Scheme.

The Denver & Rio Grande Railway
Company-a narrow guage- has deter
mined to extend its road to Gunnison,
the wonderful Colorado mining district,
and is now surveying route through
the heaviest part of the celebrated
Black Canon. The walls of the canon
are of syenite. and 5000 feet high per
pendicularly, while for half n mile the
river flowing through the canon passes
through natural tunnel, the arch of
which is not far above the water. The
river is very swift, aud it ia proposed to
place boat loaded with provisions at
the western end, and allow it to float
down with the stream, secured by ropes.
II the boat gets through, the baby road
will probably follow. Ii it does, it will
be as grand feat OF railroad engineer.
ing as has ever been accomplished.
The road will then be extended to
connection with the narrow gauge roads
now building to Los Angeles from Utah
and Nevada.

The San Francisco Examiner, Of

statement, to which currency was given
in number of the journals of this State,
that Coodall, Perkins 4 Co. had acquired
an interest in the Examiner. In refuta.
ton of this statement the great metro.
politan Democratic daily, says: "The
paper is now the exclusive property of
George Hearst. and is under the sole
"direction and business management of
"Dr C. d. Cleveland. This statement
"is made in order that there may be no
"doubt of the attitude OF the Examiner,
politically and otherwise. As the
control OF the Examiner has heretofore
been in Mr.. Hearsts hands, and us il has
been used wisely and successfully for
the advancement of genuine Democratic
interests, we cannot but feel that the
passage of the entire ownership of this
representative Democratic journal into
the hands of such genuine representa-.
tive Democrat as George Hearst is an
auspicious circumstance for the party.
