RURAL MAIL DELIVERY,

The annual report OF the postmaster
general speaks In most enthusiastic
terms OF tie success OF the rural free
mail delivery.
The experiment was started a few
years & Ia a small way and the out
come was considered doubtful. but In
view OF the results II Is a matter foI
wonder that an adjunct SC advantage
Gus to a perfect mail service should
have been delayed so long.
From a modest beginning, the rural
mail delivery now extends to a popula
tlon numbering four millions. and by
the end OF the fiscal year the service
will reach 100000. II is estimated
that the service can eventually be
extended tn 1000, 900 people and that
this will be accomplished within four
years. This seems a short time In
which to bring about such great re
suits. but II is to be hoped the post.
master general will be so sustained
by congress as TO enable him to at
tain II.
The gain TO the country In general
In bringing the rural population into
closer touch with the rest Of the world
Is obvious, stimulating thought and
enterprise and encouraging improved
methods. All this looks to progress
and helps 10 break down that isolation
which has made living in the country
unattracuve.

LABOR TRUAT.

Goodnight, formerly conductor on the
Southern Pacific and lately brakeman
on the Santa Fe. running out OF Ration
has arrived In Denver with a plan
which ne expects will revolutionize
social and Industrial conditions. He
is visiting and comforting with labor
unions, and later will ask the presi'
dents OF all the labor organizations
OF the city TO meet with him to con.
slider putting the plan into practical
operation.
Mr.. Goodnight has observed the
hundreds OF millions OF dollars placed
by workingmen In savings banks and
similar institutions. and he wants 10
unite the union as well as non-union
labor In a movement by which their
surplus earnings will be placed In a
company of their own In a word, he
wants working men TO centralIze and
consolidate their capital under their
own direction, Just as great capitalists
consolidate their capital. Five mil.

ELECTRIC TROLLEY LINE.
Company Formed TO Construct from

Snecial m Citizep

special TO Citizen.
Silver City. N. NJ, Dec. "A com.
pany Is being formed In this city for
the purpose OF constructing an cleo.
trio trolley car line from Silver City
to the Burro mountain mining district.
Judge Deming. who Is largely inter.
ested In mining property in that dis.
trict. is the chief promoter In the bus.
mess, and Is being helped by some OF
the leading business men OF this city.
The company will be incorporated In
a few days with a capital stock OF
; $4,000. 900. II Is their idea to first con.
struct the line to the Burros, which
will chiefly be used In hauling the
enormous bodies OF copper ore there
to a large co%ncentrator that will be
erected In Silver City with a daily ca
pacity OF several hundred tons. The
line Will also run passenger cars. II
is also their intention to then extend
the electric line to the famous mining
amps OF Santa Rita, Hanover and
Fierro. The electric power plant will
be located IN Silver City and will also
furnish power to run their mill. The
stock OF the new company, II Is under.
stood, will be taken up by n number of
eastern capitalists, who for some time
have had their attention attracted 10
this part CT the great southwest bo-
cause OF g enormous and rich min.
eral deposits. The scheme will I'M
d~oubtedly prove a very profitable In.
vestment.
