wisdom and a spirit OF fair play which
may save that enterprise to Boulder. To
compel Receiver Dyer to build mile a
year was to practically forfeit the fran

apathy of Boulder 6nanciers, who have
turned down requests for loans. The
Chautauqua is absolutely dependent
upon the electric road and it was this
view that induced Judge Boughron to
stand of the creditors who would have
pulled up the rails and to authorize Mr..
Dyer to borrow money with which to
build. Let that road be abandoned and
Boulder will suffer by publication of the
fact. 1t would be a confession Of retro
