Method of Operating a Labor Ex:
charge

Few people understand the mode Of
operating Labor Exchange, although
all know it's object to be TO do away
with the uses Of money altogether and
to keep every producer employed by
finding a market for his product. For
example, the soap maker wants a new
set of teeth. He makes six dollars
worth Of soap, takes it to the Exchange,
receives scrip to that amount, goes to a
dentist who is a member OF the Ex-
change, turns over to him the scrip and
receives teeth. The dentist takes tho
script to the Exchange and buys -four,
pork or beef with it. The idea 10,
therefore 4 very simple one but 1t
opens up q wide field for cooperative
effsrt. The Exchange now in operation
at Fruita, in this county, is said to be
working very smoothly and proving OF
great help and benefit to it, msmbers.-

The Colorado legislature in trying to
be funny came very near making the
state ridiculous. The silly bill which
provided that women shall not wear
hats in theatres was defeated in the
senate by the narrow margin Of only 10
to 16 votes, yet the senate claims to be
learned and dignified. Some Of those
well paid though useless legislators who
worked to get this bill passed wore the
instruments by which the sylvanits
county bill was defeated 1t is through

pot-pourri of clever comedy, excel

specialties, as interpreted by Fergu-
son.and limerick, and large COM
pany of fun-makers comes to the
Grand next Wednesday, March II.
The comedy work of Ferguson
and limerick cs decidedly original
and their conception of Irish humor
is characteristicly droll.
Their work shows their keen ap-
probation of the characters they
portray. The supporting company
is strictly in line with the high
standard alwaps maintained by
Managers Merritt and Davis and
comprises a contingent of artists
that are individually and collective
ly Right in the swim at any stage
of the game" Nina Gennell a cap
tiyating little lady, is happily cast
in soubrette role that seems to fit
her abilities, and in which she
brings out the silent points in an ex-
ceedingly choice way.
Her singing and dancing special
ties are rendered in an artistic man
ner that is bound to captivate her
audience. Maggie Ferguson gives a
clever impersonation of an up to
date woman and incidently shows
that she is an expert dancer. The
Gehrue Sisters are two shapely and
handsome young ladies whose sweet
voices in pleasing Duets and unique
specialties are a feature of the per-
formance. Gertie Keith and Bessie
Seymour impersonates "Mcsorley's
Twins" and are withal a charminy :
duet Of performers. Nearly all the
songs, chourses and medleys are or
iginal, but it was thought best to in
troduce a choice selection of the
latest popular songs. The scenic
accessories for the production of
"McSorley's Twins" are direct from
the studio OF Sosman and Lands,

Let War Come.

The proposition may be cold blooded
one, but it is fact that general war
in Europe will be benefit to this
country. Not less than 100000 men
would be under arms and every bushel
of surplus grain, every pound Of meat,
every article OF food produced for OK
port, and everything in the line of mu-
nitions OF war would be in lively de-
mand at an advanced price. There is
scarcely an enterprise in this country
but would feel the effects Of this de-
mand. That it would create an ad-
ditional demand for silver seems also
certain. In brief, the producing Amer
lean would be obliged to feed the fight

Ir is possible that the late big cut
in the price of steel rails was made for
the purpose Of affording the manufact-
urors an opportunity to reduce the
scale of wages once more. OF course
the employees could not ask the same
wages when rails get 80 cheap; that was
the argument and excuse made. But it
will be observed that what the compan-
les lost on rails Gf by an understanding
with purchasers they lost anything)

THE inhabitants of the Cripple Creek

RADIO Springs for killing the Sylvanits
county bill, by scooping the field in the
next county election. The west end
has the voting strength to elect every
official, and that is the very thing they
are most likely to dc. 1t would only be
retributive justice. The Springs had
the alternative Of cutting out Cripple
Creek from Ell Paso county or losing

holding it's own in politics. All Cripple
