general manager. The capital stock is
$4,000.
Width these gentlemen back of the
scheme, Boulder can be assured that it
will 60 through. The indefatigable
energy of the Fulton brothers has con-
verted University hill from barren
waste into one of the most desirable resi-
dence portions of the city. By untiring
efforts they have at last secured for
Boulder what has been crying need for
years, viz, a tourist hotel. Boulder has
all the other requisites of summering
resort and this alone was lacking. The
passenger management of the Gulf have
considered time and again the feasibility
of turning large volume OF tourist trade
into Boulder, but recognizing the in
adequate facilities for handling large
crowds have delayed doing so.
The capital back of the hotel scheme,
as stated in the Camera recently, is from
the same source as that which is build.
ing the Ward railroad. When these
gentlemen start to do anything its con-
summation is assured.
After giving the notice of incorpora-
ton, the Denver Times of last evening
has the following to say IN reference to
the scheme:
"The object of the company as set
forth in the articles of incorporation is to
purchase land. build and equip first
class tourist hotel in Boulder, and to &C.
quire and possess mineral springs, re-
sorts, eating houses, ETC., along the line
of the Colorado & Northwestern road,
the new railroad being constructed be-
tween Boulder and Ward. All of the
gentlemen mentioned as being incorpor-
ators of this company are largely inter-
ested in the Colorado & Northwestern
road and the hotel N Boulder and other
resorts which the company may acquire
will be run in connection with the rail-
road and virtually under the same man
agement. The capital which is building
the road will build the hotels, ETC., of the
Boulder Development and Improve ment
company.

ager Miller are interested in the railway.
There is unlimited capital back of the
enterprise and there is not doubt that
it will be carried through rapidly.
The plans are at present in the hands
of well-known Denver architect,
Boulder, as a resort for tourists, is
hardly to be eAcelled by any of the
famous resorts of Colorado, the state
which leads all others In this respect, but
ever since the town was founded the lack
of first class hotel has been keenly felt,
more especially of late, since Boulder
has been brought before the public as a
health resort. There have been many
rumors ahoat from time to time of
schemes for the building of a fine tourist
hotel, but never before has the matter
been taken hold of and pushed. At one
tine it was said that the Gulf read was to
construct such a house, but this story
was found to have been circulated with
out facts for a foundation and nothing
ever came of it.
Nov the right people have taken hold
of the hotel scheme with the intention of
pushing it through. Those at the head
of it are all known to be energetic and
practical business men, men who have
been tried before in the matter of the
Boulder Ward road, and it is safe to
presume that anything that they take
hold OF will not fail. The field for a pay
ing hotel was never better than it is in
Boulder at the present time. Although
there are hotels there, there are none to
suit the class of tourists who stop there
to regain their lost health or to come in
contact with the beauties of Colorado.
"The new hotel will be located in the
best portion of the town, University
Place, and will occupy an entire block
It will be surrounded with beautiful
lawns and shade trees and will be in
keeping with the quiet beauty of the
town of Boulder. In the house will be
Iso large rooms, with bath, and every
convenience known TO the modern hotel
builder will be included in the plans of
the hotel. The material of which it is to
be constructed is crystallzed sandstone,
fire preot and of beautiful pink shade.
Other houses of minor importance may
be put up by this same company in the
camps which will be reached bv the
