GRAND JUNCTION, Colo, March 90, 1890
ED. ORANGE JUDD FARMER-ln my pre-
vious letters have written only of the fruit
and vegetable resources of the Grand Val
ley. / wish now to call attention to some
other resources of this favored locality, I'm
mediately surrounding the valley are the
famous Book Cliff Mountains; through these
cliffs, for miles, large coal measures crop
out at the surface. The coal is varied in
kind and quality, including large veins of a
fine bituminous variety suitable for domes
tic and steam purposes, and also fine quail
ity of cooking coal, and in quantities that
are practically ineXhaustible. Back of the
mountains containing coal, the precious
mineral bearing mountains begin, in which
the famous mining camps of Leadville, As
pen, Ouray, and dozen other mining camps
are situated. All of these are tributary by
simple gravitating power to the town of
Grand Junction, which will on the compile
tion of the railroads now building, make
this one of the great smelling centers of the
West.
Now with regard to Railroad Facilities,
Grand Junction is to day the terminus of
the Denver IL Rio Grande narrow guage
from Denver westward, and the terminus
of the Rio Grande Western from Salt Lake
City eastward, and also of the little Book
Cliff Railroad The Denver a. Rio Grarde
and the Colorado Midland are now building
broad gauge road down the valley of the
Grande to meet at Grand Junction the
broad gauge road now building from Salt
Lake eastward All of these broad gauge
roads are to be completed by next June, the
grading being now practically completed
and track-laying commenced. These thus
give an outlet in every ai"c, vion for this
seasons crops, ana in short time several
other trunk lines will be built here, fully
dozen others having already made surveys
or now making them with a view of either
terminating at this point or passing
through. Representatives of two large
Smelling syndicates have been here within
the past few days, with view of securing
suitable sites for the erection of Smelters.

GUTHRIE, Okla, Dec. 16.-Colonel
E. B Townsend, we'll and favorably
known throughout the west as the
Iowa Reservation ranchman, visited
here last Friday. Col. Townsend is
an educated and thoroughly inform
ed gentleman on anything pertaining
to the Indian Territory. Speaking of
the recent respective offers of SIC, 000,-
000, SO, 1000 900 and $50, 000, 900 for tho
Cherokee Strip made by different SYM
dicares, he said that while the offers
were not made merely for bluff, yet
the parties making the Offe1 ought to
know the offers were of no avail, as q
title could not be given without a
concurrence of the government, and
1t was against public policy to even
think OF he government concurring
with the Cherokee in any outside
deal.

Excavations at Delphi,

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Dec. l2.-There
has been considerable talk in the
papers to the effect that the project
Tor excavsting Delphi under the
auspices of the American Archaeology
Cal institute has been abanooned
Prof. &. E. Norton, who has been

Harvard College has raised the
sum promised by her for the excava-
tons at Delphi, and not only she, but
America stands ready with the prom
ised sum to begin the work But af
fairs have come to q standstill owing
to a change of Ministry in Greece.

politically, but also personally.
Whether he will allow us to begin
the work and help US i'm 1t remains to
be seen. Meanwhile. negotiations are
being made with him, and In the
course of q few months we shall know

The Beacon Lights" company held
the footlights at the Grand Opera
house last night to a small audience
The play was intended for the gall
lery, not for the orchestra circle and
the gallery last night appreciated the
fact. So did the parquet, and the
empty seats attested the fact. 1t is 8
Iurid, sensational piece and the man
ager very rightly only plays one night

Tonight "Pearl of Pekin" will be
the attraction at the opera house, and
as this has never failed to draw like 8
porous plaster, the house will be filed.
1t is play worthy of such a welcome.
