there was no special attraction

met with a painful accident while
out fishing. A bus load Of young
sters in company with their day
school teacher, were at Ansley's
farm, about six miles south of this
city, and Willie undertook to ride
one of the horses to water with the
harness on. The horse objected
and commenced to plunge and run,
and the boy got scared and tried to
get off. In doing so he received a
very bad cash in the forepart of the
left arm, which was in all proba-
bility done by coming in contact
with a ferret of the backpad. Eleven
stitches were necessary to close up
the cash. He was otherwise bruised
about the head and breast The
unfortunate boy was brought home
at once, and by good treatment he
is doing as well as could be ex.

The Rin Grnnde Innctinn

H Collbran, the general manager of the
Midland, was in the city yesterday from
Colorado Springs, and during the day was
closeted with General Manager Smith, of
the Rio Grande. The conference between
the two managers was in relation to the
construction of the new line between New
Castle and Grand Junction, and in which
both the Rio Grande and Midland are
equally interested, the construction being
done under the immediate management of
General Managers Smith and ColIbran, with
Frank King as chief engineer in charge of
the work.
Bids and bonds were examined, and it is
understood Cory Bros were awarded the
contract and instructed to at once com
mence operations. The new line is there
fore an assured fact and no longer a propo-
sition Work will be inaugurated at once
and pushed with all possible haste The
work has been let and the Rio Grande
junction railway has been launched, dirt
throwing having commenced yesterday.
This means that within six months Denver
will have a second through standard gauge
TO the coast.

were awarded the contract expect to have
1000 men at work within ten days and will
push the line with vigor. Six months is
the maximum given the contractors tocom-
plete their work, but tits expected it will
be done much sooner. 1t is estimated that
about $1,000, 600 will be expended upon this
work, the entire length of the line from
New Castle to Grand Junction being sew

Horace A. Taylor, commissioner of rail
roads, has filed with the secretary of the
interior the annual report of the operations
Of his bureau for the fiscal year ended June
30, 1889. Referring to the railway situation
in the west he says:
Repeated and ruinous rate wars, de-
structive alike to the interests of the rail
roads and the shipping public, have pre-
vailed to an alarming extent throughout
the west in recent years. The unparalleled
development of the vast resources of the
western states and territories has attracted
capital there and railroads have opened
inviting fields to investors, AS result
railroad building has been carried on far in
advance of the needs of the country. Paral-
lei lines and unprOductive feeders have
been constructed and expensive terminal
facilities secured. With the opening of
nearly every through line new complica-
tions have arisen and competition has been
stimulated to the point Of annihilating
profits and often producing ruiuOus
losses"
Discussing the remedy for this state Of
things he says: at is safe to say that the
remedy does not lie in the levying of eXtor-
tionate charges or the waging of reckless
rate wars. The security of the railway
system lies in administering it with careful
respect to justice and the public welfare.
If It's oppressive hand is laid too heavily
upon the people revenge and revolt will be
sure to follow. If investors in railroad
properties have expended their capital IN
the construction of lines not demanded by
the present trade then they must share
the fate of all who invest in unproductive
enterprises. Relief can only come through
increased settlement stimulating business
and developing natural resources"

Unjust. Taxation.

1t is unjust to tax the stomach with bur-
thens that it cannot bear. Many silly peo-
pie thus tyrannize that faithful servitor
until it rebels and Furnishes them as they
deserve. Dyspepsia is usually the child of
gastronomic folly, but whether this or the
natural associate of inherent feebleness
from childhood, it is surely and pleasantly
remediable with Hostetter's Stomach Bit
tiers, the finest and most highly sanctioned
gastric tonic in existence. AS result of
the tone impaired to the stomach, and the
increased activity of it's digestive and as
similative action, insured by the persistent
use of this benign invigorant, general
stamina is augmented, the nerves strength
ened and tranQuilized, and tendency to
insomnia and hypochendriasis defeated
Biliousness, chills and fever, rheumatism
and kidney troubles are conquered by this
admirable medicine.
