ouRAY's boom has certainly come. From
the last number Of the HuidOoa we learn that
a railroad from Montrose to that place is
about to be built by jerome II. ChafIre Otto
Mears and other capitalists. :As Mr.. Mcars
has the right of way of the proposed route
no trouble need be apprehendcd on tina,
score. lie agrees TO grade the road bed and
lay ties the full! distance of thirty five miles
for Sso,o1o; rails, spikes, etc, will cost in
the neighborhood Of $4,000 per mile, or $780,
0e0 for the distance; put The rolling stock at
$4,000 more, and we have a complete rail-
road that will cost not more than $500, 900.
The gentlemen are Of the opinion that at
least i've hundred tons of ore per day will BE-
the product of the mines already developed
This quantity OF ore will keep the road pretty
busy. but we have reason to believe that the
product from this and surrounding camps
will far exceed that estimate. They propose
TO deliver the ore TO Montrose AT cost not
exceeding 81 per ton. OF course such pro-
iec, would not be thought of were II not for
the Mcars' tramway to Red Mountain, Pough.
kecpsic, Mineral, Bear Creek and Sneiicls
districts, which can and will deliver hun
drcds of tons of ore daily into our camp. In
addition to the transportation of five hundred
tons of ore per day, the proposed railroad will
make net earning of 500 more per day from
passen ger, freight and local traffic. Can any
one deny the feasibility of such scheme as
this2 VIII not an income Of 81 900 per day
more than compensate the outlay of $780,
600? This is not wild enthusiasm, but plain,
unvarnished facts, aud the men who contem.
plate this project are men OF vast means
they are not young and frivolous, but have
acquired fortunes by intelligent, pcrscvering
and industrious labor, and are not apt to
to throw away their substance upon wild and
hopeless wildcat speculation. They propose
to enter into il with the assurance of being
well repaid for the enterprise, and not as
public bcnctactors."

Hofs grow very abundantly in a wild state
in some Of the valleys of Delta county, and
are of prime quality. The eastern prices
for hops now range between thirty and forty
cents pound, Good money could be made
by gathering and shipping them to Denver.
Las, year because of shortage Of the crop at
home and abroad, there was a snug corner
in hops" the price reaching as high as 81 80
per pound in New York. As hops lose their
strength with age, new hops always com
maud a higher price in the market, though n
short crop of new is good thing for those
who are stuck on old"

THE election law passed by the last les!s-
iature will control the next election, and it
makes some changes for the better Among
these is inyalidating printed split tickets.
Hereafter change in a regularly nominated
iicke; will have to be made with pen or
pencil, and not by paster or a printed tick
ct. The tickets are to be printed on plain,
white print paper, no; over two and a half
inches wide, nor under two and three.eigh,s
inches. The ballot boxes are to be glass
globes with small opening in the top, and
are to be locked with three locks with three
different keys, each of the judges having one,
that no two Of them can get at the ballots
without the aid OF the third. Almost every
precaution seems TO have been taken 10 guard
agains, fraud. Now if u person fails OF an
election hc will only have his own unpopu-
larity TO blamc aud not the old cry of ballot
box stufiiug.

ONE of the drawbacks TO the country, and
in fact the only one of consequence, has been
the uncertainty among the ranchmen where
the lines would run, and where they could
clear and plant with some safety of having it
on their own tract, owing TO their being in an
unsurveyed country. OF the causes that
have led to retarding this work TO this late
day there is no Of discussing, for they
have been pretty well ventilated. The third
correction line is now run, from which the
survey is to be made, and there is no reason
why it should be any longer delayed

criDg of great men from nll parts of this

Pacific is the longest railway owned by one

A Retrospect.

As I'm sitting In the shadows,
sadly dreaming OF the past,
The visions of my childhood
Come before me thick and ii,st.
There's vision of my mother,
ofmy mother kind and mild
As her smiling lips would kiss me,
When was little child,
She'd lay her light hand on my head.
With son carcssing touch,
Saying In fond and loving tones;
MY child, love thee much"
But now that hand is laid to rest,
That mother she he's gone
To be an angel bright and fair
Among that heavenly throng.

Review of the Local Grain, Produce, and
Provision Markets.
INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. g.
Tameness continues to brood over the general
merchandise markets, but values, except in cof-
fees, remain unchanged. The bears are evil
IDENTIFY onto the coffee market and the tendency
Is to a further break Eggs, poultry and butter
are becoming more plenty, and decline in
prices is highly probable within day or two
On inquiry, we find that the holiday business is
not up to expectation, and, from present APP
pearances, 1t will not come up to last year. All
classes of buyers are operating with unusual
caution, and there is nothing in the situation to
warrant any great expectations for the remain
der of the month. So far as the wholesale mar
kets concerned, Eastern papers report dull
trade. The Boston Journal says of the dry
goods trade:
agents are patiently waiting for further de-
velopments, and are making no efforts to force
business in any direction. Representative of
Que OF the prominent commission houses said he
would as soon think Of taking a sleigh ride on
the fourth of July as of trying TO sell goods In
the present condition of the Market All seem
confident, however, that it is not question of
price, and that when the proper time arrives
there VIII be fair movement. Jobbers are
ceiving few orders from country dealers, but
are having very little store trade, and statesmen
have plenty of time in which to discuss the lead
ing topics of the day. The cold snap on Monday
Inspired hope that winter was about To set in
III earnest, and that the demand for winter goods
would soon be in full force. but the milder turn
later had discouraglng effecr, and the outlook
80 the close Is no more promising than for sew
eral weeks past. JObbers are operating with
small stocks, and will nor be likely to increase
them this season. Brown and bleached cottons
as well as all kinds of colored fabrics, share in
the slow movement Prices may be called
steady, but there is no doubt that concessions
coIld be obtained if buyers were anxious to
operate. Printing cloths continue very dull,
ana have further accumulated, the stocks in frat

mere is a slow and unsatisfactory movement,
and sales are confined To a few special makes.

market generally. Dress goods continue quiet,
