st. Paul Judge Holds They Have the
- Right to Refuse Passengers.
The conductor Of street car: is the
sole Judge of whether his car, when filled,
shall stop to receive passengers accord
ing to a decision Of Judge Otis Of the
Ramsey county court. - 49,
The point was raised in the suit of one
John Jehle, who sued the St. Paul street
railway company for damages for failure
to stop the car for him. The defense con-
tended that the car was already full. The
court in its memorandum lays down the
law thus: ..>.
street car are entitled to some rights, and
when car is crowded and people are stand
ing in the aisles the conductor has perfect
right to pass a prospective passenger who
has signalled the car to STOP If a company
allows it's cars to become jammed and
crowded, it Is liable for any accident that
might happen to its patrons result, and
the, company has a right to use It's own judg
ment as to when a car Is sufficiently crowded
"'The decision Of the St. Paul court is
good law" said w. H. ~Bennett$of Koon,
Whelan & Bennett, the attorneys for the
street car company "and he company has
always operated its cars in accordance
with it. The conductors are instructed
to run past people, If the cars are crowd

remedy for the present shortage None

LONESOME POP TICKET
Full Sized Ballot May Be Printed for
One Candidate.

County Auditor Scott received from At
torney General Douglas this morning a
note to the effect that should any one
file an affidavit as a candidate for nom
anation on the peoples party ticket, it
was the duty Of the county auditor to
receive the affidavit and place the candi-
dates name on, the primary election. bal
lot. Soon after the letter had been re-
ceived the first populist presented him
self in the person Of Captain Alanson H.
Nelson, who filed an affidavit to the ef-
feet that he would run for the congress
sional nominal tion.
This places the county in rather odd
position. 1t is believed that Nelson will
be the only populist candidate to declare
himself, and as each party is entitled to
q separate ticket, Nelson will have a
ticket all to himself. 1t will not be a
short one, either, for spaces must be left
for every Office which is to be filled at the
coming general election. This will mean
great expense and only Captain Nelson s
golden eagle with which to cover, it,. 80.

ASSAY OF
BIG STUFF
Jim" Bradley's BIue Ribbon Lode Enters
the List of the High Grade Propositions.

Jim" Bradley's Blue Ribbon Lode Enters
the List Of the High Grade Propositions.
The Blue Ribbon Mining and Milling
company starts out as if 1t meant to add
to the production figures of the district
This week Manager Bradley cut vein in
the shaft that assayed l, 900 ounces in sill
yer and fair per cent of gold.
The old proposition has always shown
strong silver values, and at one time
streak of wire silver was found running
right across the breast of the drift. 1t
has not been worked extensively to de-
velop it and show what the property
really contains, but depth and develop
ment appears to be doing a great deal
for it.
The vein from which Mr.. Bradley got
this assay is good big one and carries
good values outside of the smelling
streak. The Blue Ribbon lode is in Peck
gulch, where several rich properties have
been found, but where no great amount
of work has been carried on, because of
the fact that the properties were owned
by people who did not have the capital to
push development.
Mr.. Bradley is good mining man and
ought to succeed in his work in the new
company. He has several leases on hand,
and more under way. Besides the devel-
opment of the Blue Ribbon lode the
company will do considerable leasing.

Humboldt Hill.

Frank c. Smith of Denver and owner
of the famous Humboldt mine, has spent
few days in the camp looking after the
interest of his property. He put men to
work on his new tunnel, which he is
driving from Cascade creek into Hum
boldt hill to cut the Humboldt lode at
depth of 900 feet.
J. B. Allen has just struck rich streak
of ore six inches wide in the tunnel
which he is driving in the Mary Matilda
lode into Humboldt hill.
The rich streak of ore which the Iessees
in the lower Humboldt tunnel have en-
countered has opened TO a width of six
inches.
Work on the Humboldt stamp mill has
commenced. and as soon as the mill is
put in repair and running order, ore will
be treated by the lessees, which they are
taking out of the Humboldt mine, They
also expect to do considerable custom
work during the summer.
John Gable expects to commence work
soon on his tunnel, located on Ute creek
and running into Humboldt hill.
Idaho Springs siftings., 1902-05-03

This property has one of the finest mills
to be found in this section ready for op-
Grafton, with little remodeling, and it is
stated that the ore bodies found in the
drifts and tunnel are exceptionally prom
ising. Mr.. Boardman will have charge
of the property and is now making ar
raugements to proceed with the work as
rapidly as possible. The resumption of
the Standard will not only be a good
thing for the Fall River section, but for
the entire district as well. 1t is prop
erty in which mining men have always
expressed confidence, and the wonder is
that it has not been worked before this.

TO BUILD
A GREAT
STATION
Plans of the Big Five Federation For a
Monster Plant Assume Proportions.

From what can be ascertained it is
probable that the Big Five will build a
big power plant-in the coal fields near
Boulder at Erie or Lafayette, during the
coming year and generate power for
mines in Boulder county as well as for
the mines in this locality operated by the
association. 1t is not improbable that
they would also become competitors in
the local field for furnishing power to the
custom mines.
The plan has been talked of for nearly
year and is beginning to focus. Parties
are willing to invest their capital for they
look upon it as a capital idea. Coal can
be procured for s. per ton in the fields
spoken of and this will make the cost OF
steaming very little.
Boulder county is in need of electric
energy to move the machinery of her
mines, and it is the intention of the asso-
citation to furnish this. While Clear
Greek is well equipped with companies it
is not improbable that the Big Five would
get some OF the business and perhaps a
greal deal of it if it could generate power
for the mines and furnish it cheaper than
the companies already in the field.
We understand, however, that Boulder
county would be the principal point en-
tered for business and Gilpiu would be
second. The distance from Erie or La
fayette to this point is not great and it is
possible, according to the statement of
engineers to furnish the current for that
distance and even further. In Utah the
current is conducted for eighty miles, and
the great central station is said to be one
of the finest in the world.
1t is stated that plans are now under
way to guarantee the fruition of all
plans.
