jcurnment was taken.

The Denver Republican reports that
three new railroads are to be built con-
Meeting the great gold camp of Cripple
Creek with other points. One from Grip
pie Creek to Canon City, one to Col
orado City and one directly to Denver.
The direct line to Denver will, it is said,
be constructed by the Smith offat syn
dictate, as will also the one to Canon
City. 1t is to be hoped that these expec-
tations will not be disappointed, and it
seems almost certain that some Of them
will be constructed, if not the whole
three. Now while the boom is on is the
time to build the roads, and the min
ing situation at Cripple Creek appears
to justify almost anything in the way
of investment in enterprises that are
actually needed.
