Several days ago The Herald an
nounced that the Rio Grande Western
was being inspected by representatives
of syndicate that had purchased or
intended to purchase a controlling in
terest in the road. 1t was stated that
the party probably represented the
Gould Hartman syndicate, and that
Mr. Gould himself was reported to be a
member of the party. It turned out
that the report concerning Mr. Gould's
presence was incorrect, but The Her
AIDS statements concerning the pur-
pose of the inspection are now con-
firrned by General Manager Dodge
himself. Colonel Dodge was inter
viewed last evening by The Herald s
Denver correspondent, who sent the
following special dispatch:
Colonel d. c. Dodge of the RIO
Grande Western stated this evening
that a party of experts had been in
specting the line for a week
81 cannot say what interest they
represent said he, but it is probable
that a syndicate is thinking of buying
the Rio Grande Western If they are
willing to pay the price, / have no
doubt the property Will pass into their
hands.
Colonel Dodge positively refused to
say to what combination of railroad
interests the party Of inspectors be-

appeared on the line with the silence

Coming UP the line yesterday the party
rolled into Salt Lake about noon, but
hurried right through TO ogden, where

Some members of the party are be-
lieved to be experts on railroad values

rect, according to Mr.. Geddes. His
business. here was of a private nature

be drawn that he is not member of
the party.

1t is Unquestionably Plttsburg's Best
Newspaper.

1.-THE Pittsburg POST is the kind OF
a newspaper that is bound to be sue
cessful. Ii is second TO none in the
matter of publishing the news of the
world, and in addition to that impor-
tant fact it insists on such careful
editing that all Objectionable items
are eliminated. 1t is newspaper
that can be safely admitted into any
home. 1.-THE Posts facilities are
surpassed by none. 1t has demon
strated time after time it is always on
the alert, whether it be TO gather the
news of the far East or OF the local
field. 1.-THE POST is essentially a
newspaper, but 1t does not neglect
other features that go to make a well
rounded daily publication to interest
all kinds and conditions of men.
1.-The Sunday POST has foIged
steadily TO the front until now it oc-
cupies an enviable position at the
head Of the procession. The most
instructive and interesting articles
that can be procured are to be found
in its columns, and 1t is acknowledged
that It's illustrations are not excelled
anywhere. The Sunday Posts" in
creasing circulation attests its worth.
Its growth has been little short OF
marvellous. YOU cannot afford not to
read 1t.
