CoIorado:s s New Eldorado


The grand, rich State of Pennsylvania supports population of 6,30200 the states Of Vermont. New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island. Coneeti- cut, Delaware and New Jersey have combined population of 5,ss5,Ooo; and yet either the State of Pennsylvania or the latter group of states could be comfort ably packed away in northwestern Colo rado and northwestern Utah. This vast area capable of maintaining millions of population as 1t inevitably will, today contains less than 10000, and Is not trav- ersed by a single railroad. And do not hesitate to say that in all the United States there Is no equal area approach ing 1t in richness of territory that is without Q railroad. What this great en- zine of civilization will do for thousands of farmers, for hundreds of miners, Sen ator Henry M. Teller has eloquentiy stat ed.
 Practical railroad men, made wise by the experiences of thoee who have gone before. do not enter lightly into the en- terprise of building railroads. No rail- road should be built until all the circum- stances warrant the undertaking. There must be more in view than O vista gilt tering with the possibility of freight and passenger traffic, there must be a de- mand for transportation and conveyance between established loints-a public de- ma nd for a railroad. It must supply an actual existing necessity. Such is the case in Colorado. For a leng time the need of road shortening the distance between Denver and Salt Lake City has been felt by sll classes in the states of Utah and Colorad The Denver Cham Der of Commerce has recognized the sit- uation and unofficially advised the build ing of road; one that would make n direct westerly connection with Salt Lake City.
 The wealth of Colorado Is little known. When the northwestern portion of our state Is opened up to the world the reve- lation of its riches will come as a sur prise. It contains in abundance great variety of riches. A railroad will bring farmers into it's well watered and fertile valleys, where an immense population can be richly supported. It is grand country for the farmer, and for cattle men. The wooded districts are rich with lumber and saw mills will spring up at once. No one can estimate the unquar- ried wealth that lies locked in the hills and mountains which abound with coal, iron. gold. silver and copper. The ter ritory lies undevelope6, capable of sup porting a vast population both by mining and agriculture.

be stated upon the authority of eminent geologists as for instance, Prof Lakes, of the Colorado State School Of Mines, the bituminous and anthracite coal fields of Roult County, compare with the high quality of Pennsylvania. The quantity Is unlimited, the anthracite hard, firm and compact, and lies in bed probably the largest area west of the Mississippi To- day it is one hundred miles from the nearest railroad. Vast mineral sections of gold and silver and copper lie In un- dey eloped veins. and when machinery can be carried to them, will warrant the en- -ployment of 5000 men. Three big riv- CTS and countless streams irrigate val leys that range from narrow canons to gentle valleys ten miles in width Here GOO families can till the soil and pro- due e 50 tc 60 bushels of oats to the acre. 30 to 40 of wheat, GO to 75 of barley, two and ona-half tons of timothy. four to six tons of alfalfa, 400 bushels of potatoes and all kinds of vegetables. The section Is remarkable for native grasses and small streams, so 1t is fast becoming great cattle country. Inaccessibility to markets has acted as detriment to az riculture and cattle raising. Onyx and marble were shipped In 1898 to the Omaha Exposition and captured the first prize Granite and sandstone can be quarried In Roult and Rio Blanco petroleum has been found in large quantities and tests show 1t to have a paraffine base, unlike the California ell, which has an asphalt base.
 Colorado grows day by day In popula- ton. Towns are springing up and cities expanding. Industries of every kind and class are fourishing. The road I pro- pose building the Denver, Northwestern and Pacific Railway, will confer on Den yer commercial benefits that cannot be estimated and on the state at large ben efits that cannot be measured. Exclusive Of through travel, believe the road will carry over 100000 passengers in the very first year of its existence.
 Thousands of tourists pass through Colorado in search of health and recre- aticn. They make excursions into the mountains and throughout the valleys. and visit the mineral springs The Dem yer and Northwestern will go through the most picturesque country in the whole state. In some places tunnels will pierce the mountains and at others 1t will skirt the precipitous mountain sides, giv- ing a view of hills, of streams and val leys, which will enchant he tourist.
 The world fame of the climate makes any comment unnecessary. One hun tired miles away from the nearest rail- road, the tourist today will find at Steamboat Springs. little town of GOO persons, at an altitude of 6780 feet. Here there are fifty springs. differing in character comprising sulphurous, chal- bybeate,. ndifferent-thermal and muri-

 The road will be well built and well equipped, affordinG more than comfort assuring the luxury of travel. This Is not the first road I have built in Colo rado. 1 propose that 1t shall be the pride of the state. Utah Is growing fast in wealth. Her farming classes are rapidly increasing, her industrial wealth leapins forward with each succeeding year, and inc necessity of a closer connection be- tween Salt Lake City and Denver Is as urgent in Utah as in Colorado. The in- terior development of the United States can best be accomplished by shortening distances between the largest centcrs of population. And this Is the task we pro- pose to accomplish.

TRADE CONDITIONS.
Crop Prospects Strengthen Business.
Lack of Fuel Chief Obstacle.

Crop Prospects Strengthen Business
Lack of Fuel Chief Obstacle.
NEW YORK, July 26-R. G. Dun &
Co.'S weekly review of trade says:
Each day brings the agricultural
products Of the nation nearer maturity,
and as the possibility of any serious
injury becomes smaller the feeling of
confidence in fully sustained trade
grows stronger. The threatened SYM
pathetic strike of bituminous miners
has been averted, and, aside from a
number of small disputes among gar
ment workers, the labor outlook has
improved. Storms destroyed much
property in some sections, and the
prompt restoration of structures has
added to the activity of building
trades.
insufficient fuel Is the one serious
difficulty in the iron and steel indus
try, Interruptions and delays from this
cause becoming more noticeable each
day. Supplies of coal are curtailed by
the strike, and, although coke ovens
are marking new records of production,
shipments are retarded by the car and
motive power shortage. In market
where there is comparative dizziness
because deliveries cannot be made
promptly the outlook for long contin-
ued activity seems favorable, especial
ly as scarcity of fuel cannot continue
factor indefinitely. All forms of pig
iron have sold far ahead, and there is
no evidence of overproduction in the
near future at least.
There was less activity in the specu-
latiVs markets for the leading cereals,
yet prices were fairly well maintained.
In July corn there was fear of a fur
ther campaign against the short inter-
est, while the wheat market was sus-
tanned by the small percentage of re-
ceipts that graded up to contract.
There was a striking increase >in the
quantity of wheat marketed, arrivals
at interior cities aggregating 6,645, 451
bushels compared with 4,457, 1924 BUSH
els in the preceding week and 6,S98, 52S
bushels year ago.
Meats We're somewhat weaker on
larger receipts and smaller export buy
ing.
Footwear factories have returned to
almost full operation, contracts coming
forward freely from wholesalers at the
large cities.
Failures for the week numbered 2OS
in the United States against 1913 last
year, and in Canada II against % last
year.
