laxesslr.siaU ,he camp.

r. F. wrigley and Geo. F. Emer.
son, said TO be representatives Of
Simon Guggenheim Of Pueblo, have
been inspecting mining properties at
Dawson, and gave it as their opinion
that the Copper King, Copper Boy
and other prospects will make pay
mines. They do not think. however,
that the values will be found in cop.
per, but in gold.
Expert Stanley Of Colorado Springs
who has been in camp several times
lately, is very emphatic in the belief
that Dawson will become n rich gold
camp as soon as little more depth
is gained in properties now being
worked. In his opinion very rich
strata underlies the copper Gaping
and will be encountered in rs to l25
feet.

Wagon Road TO Ce.dviIle.

Senate Bill No. l69, providing for
the construction by convict labor of
public wagon road from Pueblo to
Leadville has become a law. The
governor is required to appoint a
superintendent to have charge of the
work, who shall draw a salary of ST.
200 per year, and is directed to appoint
road overseers who shall serve for
$45 month. The work will COM
mence as soon as the appointments
are made. The bill has the emergency
clause and appropriates the following
amounts: Two thousand four hun
dred dollars for txo years salary Of
superintendent, So. 200 for overseers,
Sc. 400 for guards, $500 for tools.
$1,000 for material. 81. 200 for teams,

II ever completed this road will
give Canon City what has long been
needed -frst-class connections to
the west. The road will follow the
present line of traffic from Pueblo to
Canon, but from Canon west an en-
tirely new route has been selected
for a portion Of it. BY this change
the western part of the county will
be given good road which will bring
them at least fifteen miles nearer the
county seat, besides avoiding some
very heavy pulls
