COLORADO CAPITAL.
Capitalists from tho Centennial Sta
Invest Largely.

Capitalists from the Centennial State
Invest Largely.
The mineral resources of the country
in and around The Needles, as has been
before stated, are simply unbounded.
The development of these rich mines,
which has already been commenced, is
bound to make city, and all that is
required is capital, push and energy
all of which are at hand.
Within the past year Denver syndi-
cate of capitalists. headed by Isaac E.
Blake, w. F. Crosby and other prom
inent Colorado millionaires, have in
vested heavily In mining enterprises in
and around The Nesdles. These gen.
tlemen have all made immense fortunes
in developing mineral properties. They
are experienced and have the financial
aid to assist them in the important work
which they are undertaking in the Mo-
jave desert country and at The Needles.
The Colorado syndicate have taken
hold of affairs in earnest. On or about
the 1st day OF February The Needles
National bank will be open for business
in an elegant new building adjoining
Monaghan & Murphy's store. The bank
has capital stock of $4,000, all of
which has been paid in. Mr.. Crosby is
president OF the bank, and Frank w
Cove, well-known young business man
of Denver and Pueblo, is the cashier.
Mr.. Cove brings to his important posi-
tion business experience Of some ears.
I lie is already on the ground, superin-
tending the construction of the bank
building.
The same syndicate controls the mines
in the New York district, in the Van
derbilt district, in the Ivanhoe district
and in the Good Springs district.
Mr.. Crosby is at the head OF The
Needles water works, and in q short
time an ice and electric light plant is to
be put in.
The company owns the reduction
works now in operation at The Needles.
The works are at present running
ON ore from the Gold Bug mine, which
is located so miles to the north OF King
man, Arizona.
The intention is to put in smelter at
The Needles at an early day-iust as
soon as the purchase Of the plant can be
effected. The completion OF the Nevada
Southern railway, which is now being
built out OF Goff's station, 80 miles to
the west of The Needles on the Atlantic
and Pacific railroad, will mark the erec-
ton Of the smelling plant, which is also
to be put in by this Colorado capital.

THE FUTURE GREAT CITY.
The Needles Bound to Become
a Thriving Metropolis.
Industries Being Developed on
the Mojave Desert.
Colorado Syndicate Expending Large
Sums on Mineral Properties.
The Needles Considere as a Resort for
Invalids Afflicted with p Pulmonary
Troubles-Handsome Pub
lie School Building.

On the California side of the Colorado
river, just IL hours ride from Los Ange-
les, and on the eastern edge Of the
Mojave desert, is located the thriving,
prosperous and promising city OF The
Needles. Here some $500 happy and
contented people are residing engaged
in various pursuits, and if the signs of
the times are to be read Alright. in two
years the population will be increased
to 10000.
The Needles has existed as a city for
10 years, but it has only been within
the last two years that it has attained
any prominence to speak of. When
the Atlantic and Pacific road was COM
pleted as far as the Colorado river,
across the territory of Arizona, it was
met at The Needles by branch of the
Southern Pacific, which had been built
out from Kojave across the desert of
that name. 1t was then that the town
of The Needles sprang into existence,
it being the junction point of the two
great roads. Later the Atlantic and Pa
cific company purchased from the South
ern Pacific the branch that had been
built out of Mojsve, and ever since that
corporation has been in control and
managing the road.
TALLY railrsad town, although it is the
supply center for mining region unex-
celled in the world for its wonderful
viz IN ho nd rf iu;a
of the Atlantic and Pacific. Railroad
machine and repair shops are located
here, large round house and other aux
iliary branches of the great corporation.
Thirty-fve conductors run in and out of
The Needles daily, and the railroad COM
pany dispenses monthly here the sum
OF $50 900 in salaries to it's employees and
wages paid to labor.
The general superintendent of the At
lantic and Pacific road is Mr.. T. R.
Gabel, who has his headquarters at
Albuquerque, N. M. Mr.. Gabel is
young man, but he is old in
experience as railroad manager.
Under his wise and sagacious super
vision the road, although operating
through very rough country, difficult
of access and still more difficult to main
tain road bed in, has been kept up to
high standard. Mr.. Gabel is a courte-
ous gentleman, and he has surrounded
himself by an efficient corps of assist
ants in the management. The other
officers are: J. Dena:r. superintendent
OF transportation; ]. Robins, train mas
ter, New Mexico division; 9. R. Perry,
train master, Arizona division; II. P.
Aldrich. train master, California divis-
ion; G. N. Sterry, general attorney; W.
A. Bissell, general freight and passenger
agent; H. G. Bush, assistant general
freight and passenger agent; w. W..
Pope, auditor; G. E. Crary, cashier !;
H. s. Van Slyck, general agent; Bruce
Tyler, claim agent.

THE BUSINESS MEN.
A Brief Reference to the Solid, substsn
tial Citizens of The Needles.

A Brief Reference to the Solid, substan-
tial Citizens of The Needles.
Reference has heretofore been made
to the enterprising business men and
merchants who have established them
selves at the Needles. Hslsey Bros.
have indicated their faith in the future
city by erecting handsome business
block which would really be an orna-
ment to city OF 10000 people. This
firm carries an enormous stock of gen.
eral merchandise and have built up
large and profitable business. W. W.
Topp is the accom- modating agent of
Wells, Fargo & Co. and there is no more
popular young man on the line of the
Atlantic and Pacific than he. F. Fl.
Thompson has a general merchandise
store on Front street where he is doing
fine trade. Mr.. Thompson has also
established branch store at the
Vanderbilt mining camp, which
he will undoubtedly make a
success. Judge J. H. West is the local
representative OF The Needles Townsite
company, and he will be only tco glad
estate.
s. T. Holcombe, ir., is the local agent
of the HERALD, and also conducts gen.
eral grocery, fruit and provision busi-
ness.
Henry Lambert is the manager of The
Needles market, where fresh meats are
always obtainable. Francis ]. Kelly is
the proprietor of the only drug store
now in the city. but a new one is to be
opened February let by DR.. d. W. Reee,
a physician and surgeon of repute who
has recently located at the metropolis OF
the Colorado. S. @. Winchester also has
a general merchandise store on Front
street, where almost anything in the
line of general supplies can be obtained
Among the other business firms at The
Needles that should be mentioned are
George S. Briggs & Co., Flynn & Potter,
O'Brien & Henry, and A. s. Mcdonald
& 90. The financial standing of all ol

JUSTLY POPULAR.
The Firm of Monaghan & Murphy
Known Far and Near.

The Firm of Monaghan & Murphy
Known Far and Near.
Extending from Los Angeles on the
west to Denver on the east, and from
the source of the Colorado river on the
north to the point where it empties
into the Gulf of California on the south,
the firm of Monaghan & Murphy lie
known far and wide, and favorably
known, too-not only for the business
ssgacity of its members, but also for
the broad-gauged, liberal policy which
it's members pursue.
The firm comprises Frank Monaghan
and Daniel Murphy, two as whole
souled, courteous gentlemen as one will
meet in months journey. Both part
mere we're formerly railroad men, and
are we'll and favorably known in Los
Angeles, where they have hosts of
friends.
Messrs. Monaghan & Murphy en-
bsrked in business at The Needles 10
years ago, before the railroad had been
constructed as far as. the Colorado
river. They had a small beginning,
but with the completion of the
railroad and the development of the
mineral resources of the Mojave desert
and surrounding country, their business
increased until it has grown to ePor-
nous proportions. A good share of this
increase is due to the popularity of the
firm and to the we'll known reputation
which they have established for
square and honest dealing. The business
OF the firm reaches 5000, 900 per annum.
Both Mr.. Monaghan and Mr.. Murphy
have strong faith in the future growth
and prosperity of The Needles and they
always stand ready and prepared to as
sist financially and otherwise any enter
prise which tends to the upbullding OF
the place. With few more such citi-
zens as Mr.. Monaghan and Mr.. Murphy
| the future of The Needles is assured.

PIOUS.

DANvILLE, KY, Sept. 13.-JUDGE SAUFLEY,
in his Instructions to the grand jury, has
charged that playing progressive eucre in par,
lors for prizes is one of the worst forms 0
gambling and told the grand jury to spare no
man or woman in their Investigations.
Of course the great moralists will say
that the ledge was essentially right. The
further fact that this all comes from Ken
lucky will also go further to establish
that fact.
In other words, the jedge, in his seat of
high authority, would rather see the in
nocent games where a man and his wife
might take a hand broken up, and the
men folk adjourn to some bar or brothel
where a game Of draw poker could be in
dulged in at no limit.
When society commences this, and ap-
plauds the jedge who plays the smart
clown and who appears to want to en-
phatically emphasize the fact that he is
a more conspicuous ass than people
dreamed of HoRATIo, we suppose the
country will be safe.
1t is safe to say that in the town where
the most just and able jedge handed down
this great ruling, saloons, illicit stills and
houses of questionable resort were in full
blast and not a voice was raised. If not
so, the map of the world has been dishon-
ored, for that would not be the real Ken
tucRV.

Mrs. S. NJ. FAIRIES, a former citizen of Char

l heartily desire to express my gratitude for
the benefit l received by the use of Mrs. Joe
Persons Remedy, having lain in bed three
months from ~jaundice, which | took a few
days after the birth of my second child. Other
medicines failed me, and [ took this Remedy
as a last resort. and the medicine mot faith in
it cured me, after the use of a few bottles.
My stomach at that time was in such a condi-
ton that had TO begin with a few drops of
the medicine, instead of the prescribed dose.
| have also found it invaluable for teething
children, and any weak, deranged stomach
both for men and women in any condition
being entirely harmless and e%frectual. Hoping
this may benefit some others suffering as l did
and stimulate them TO give the Remedy a
thorough trial, 1 am, very respectfully.

A NEW QUERY.

A gentleman who is well known in
this state, at least by reputation, writes
US to day and proposes something new
in the HARRELL case. He accuses HAIR
RELL, indirectly, Of getting a rake off
from a railroad company, and asks that
he show his hand. The plot continues
to deepen. We respectfully call upon
MR.. HARRELL to let US know about his
contract, and why he refused or did not
is to the point, as we take it, and the
question is not at all out Of place.
