County omear. Organize.

The county officers of the various
counties of Colorado met.in Denver
last Saturday and organized the
Colorado County Officers Associa-
ton. While the. purpose OF the
association IS to promote the eff
cheney OF the public service and
the social relations of the members,
the individual interests OF the
members will also be looked after.
1t is claimed that the Harter
bill passed by the last Legislature,
which reduced the salaries Of
the county officials is unconstitu-
tionai, for the reason that the
classification OF counties was not
made according TO population as
the constitution provides. but ar
hitrarily, The operations OF the
law has resulted in an injustice TO
some OF the counties, the officials
OF some OF the smaller counties re-
ceiving a higher salary than those
OF double the population. a test
case will be brought and carried
TO the supreme court, and 4, is very
probable that the officials will win
out, as the classification OF counties
under the Harter bill is plain
violation OF the provisions OF the
constitution.
Over oDe-half the counties were
represented. County Clerk Win
chell and County Treasurer Beer
bohm being in attendance from
Otero county. They report having
had very pleasant trip, and ac-
quired considerable information IN
com pairing notes with other officials
as to business methods. Some OF
the officials were really shocked
when they learned that our county
officials annually turned back into
the treasury large amount in ex-
cess fees. 1t is the general prac
tice all over the state to utilize the
entire fees OF the Office, and some
of the officials would not think OF
introducing book typewriters for
the reason that it would dispense
with the services OF some OF their
clerical force.

The bill of the. new theater
Ing with matinee Sunday for the full
week n matinee Saturday will be 1.-THE
Convict's Daughter" The play is i'm four
acts and aimed to be far superior in
merit to the average drama of to-day.
Unlike most plays it does contain an un-
usual strong and exceedingly clever plot.
AS the title indicates the play deals
with prison life where of course the
wrong man is confined for the criminal
who is at liberty. Like all good plays
the proper villain is discovered and tbs
innocent man released and right and
justice has it's reward over the evil-doer
OF vice. The play will be in the hands
OF capable artists of experience who will
render a fair performance Of The Con.
vlcts Daughter" The vaudeville part
q the programme in conjunction with
the play is the strongest yet offered at
this mouse since it's opening. The faces
are nearly all new ones to Butte patrons.
First on h list, that popular g
delineator and well-known comedian
Billy Price. The eastern top liner direct
from the principal vaudeville houses,

ciatty entitled Scenes on tn. Levee.''
This lady was announced to appear last

the head Of their profession. Their acts
alone is claimed by the management to

Rockefeller, Rogers and the Lewisohns
are practically the United Metals Sell
ing company, and contracts are being
made. ostensibly with foreign purchas-
ers. for the products OF several mines.
In my opinion, which is shared by many
others, the real purchasers are Rookie
Teller and Rogers and their associates.
They control much of the copper output.
and regulate the prices. They are maxi
ing contracts below the market price, and, |
in other words. are selling to themselves
the products of other mines in which they
nave an interest. and are thereby mak-
ing large profits.
