country. Clear Greek and Boulder
counties. defining accurately the locn-
ton OF all the principal mines and mills
and smcltcrs. The maps will cost
from $1,000 to 81 200 each, and If made
will bc copyrighted by the state. The
commission thinks that these maps

right all the proceeds of sales of these
maps would come to the state. thus re-
duclng the cost of the exhibit. The
proposal to take n tribe Of Navajo In
dians from southwestern Colorado to
the fair is likely to be adopted.
