The report o, the conferees havina
been formally accepted by the seuate,
no changes having been made in the bin
as it passed that body, the measure
as amended goes to the President for
his approval .l ~
When the conference report was called
up in the House and read, together with
the statement that the effect 1of the
agreement was that the House receded
and acceped the Senate provisions. Mr..
Hepburn was about to speak upon the
matter, when 1t was discovered that the
original papers in the case, the Hep
burn bill, and the Spooner amendment,
were not in the possession of the House.
In parliamentary tangle they had been
lost Later they were found In the
possession of the Senate, and the re-
port was again taken up.
Mr.. Hepburn, in addressing the House,
declared that he had not, in the slight
est degree, changed his opinion as to
the wisdom of the House when II passed
the Nicaragua Canal bill on January
last. That bill, he said, was compact,
and drawn with the central idea to avoid
scandals and corruption in the building
1f this great waterway, so far from the
National Capital.
To this end, he said, 1t had placed
lpon one man the responsibility. While
he Senate bill provides for a commits
;ion of seven. This, he believed, would
,ause delay and prolong the completion
IF the work. as they would hold Office
md draw salaries until the construction
Vas finished.
Big Expense Account.
1t also created large staff, the ex-
oense of which no man could compute.
Yet, in spite of all the defects, Mr. Hep
ourn said the House conferees could do
lothing but accept it; it was that or
nothing. The conferees found the Sem
lte as unyielding as an adamantine wall,
md that rather than have no legislation
he House conferees had agreed to ae-
.ept It.
He said it was at least a start. Had
he House conferees thought that any
hing better could have been obtained,
hey would not have yielded; at least, he
would not have done SO, but they found
he Senate not disposed to surrender in
my particular.

Train No. 4 came at 1910 today,
drawn by two compound engines and
consisting Of seventeen cars, some OF

should have reached here last night.
A banana refrigerator car stood in
the yard here this morning and q

HIGH WINDMILL TOWER
ON THE POPP RANCH.

E. Berner, the carpenter, returned
this morning from the Popp ranch. I'M
der the Pioneer canal. where he has
been for the past ten days building a
windmill tower over Mr.. Popp's fine
we'll. The tower is fifty feet high and
fourteen feet square at the base, and
is made of pine logs in a most substan-
tial manner. The windmill is a late
improvement and runs a very strong
force pump, taking water for Mr.. Pops
stock from the well.

President Avery T. Holmes, who
came in from the Rambler mine a day
or two ago, brought word that the ore
body had been encountered in the new
drift and that the vein had been
penetrated to a depth of about twenty
feet. The ore is very similar in quail
ity to that taken from the old workings
that have made the mine famous.
Mr.. Holmes statements were borne
out by Postmaster Cordiner Of Holmes,
who came a day earlier with the re-
port that the ore body had been found,
but he had not heard how extensive
was the vein. The reports are quite
encouraging to the owners of the mine,
and they will now go to work with a
larger force to get ore from the new
shaft.

TRAMWAY
TO BE BUILT FROM THE ENCAMP-
MENT SHELTER TO FER
Ris-HAGGERTY.
Chicago Gentlemen in the City This
Morning En- Route to That Place
to L6ok Over the Local Situation
-SmeIter to be EnIareed-Tram-
way Meeting at Denver Monday.

Mr.. George w. Best, secretary, and
Mr.. o. W. Hinckley, treasurer, of the
Grand Encampment improvement and
Transportation company, who arrived
from their homes in Chicago last night,
left today for Walcott, and will 60 from
there to Grand Encampment, the com
pany's local headquarters. to look over
the business done and the improve
ments to be made in the ear future.
Both gentlemen are also interested
in the Encampment smelter, and gave
it out here that considerable improve
ment would be made in that plant. and
that a tramway from the Ferris-Hag-
gerty mine to the smelter would be
built. The capacity Of the smelter will
be SO enlarged as to make it capable
of handling all the ore that can be pro-
duced in that district for the present.

Work to Begin Soon.

Mr.. Bernard Mccartney reached
Grand Encampment Sunday afternoon,
says the Enterprise of that city. When
asked concerning the status Of the
tramway construction he said:
"All Of the preliminaries have been
arranged and there will be a meeting
on February 10 in Denver between rep
resentatives of the Tramway company
and the manufacturers at which the
specifications will be drawn up, ap-
proved and preparations made to be-
gin the work at an early date"
Thus one more practical step has
been taken towards the accomplish
ment Of that which is to be such a
potent fDttor In the development Of
this district. This, taken in connec-
ton with the probable ending Of the
copper war and the consequent return
to normal copper priced; shoula infnse
new life and hope into those who have
been inclined to look upon the dark
side OF things.

Oid-Time Producer Sold.

The famous Carisa gold mine at
South Pass, Wyo., has been sold to a
Chicago syndicate, headed by Henry
NJ. Ryan. The amount paid for the
mine is not known.
The Carisa has been operated stead
lily for over thirty-f1ve years. In early
days a fortune was taken from the
mine, the output during the first three
years Of its history being estimated at
from $4,000, 900 to 10000 OO. During
the twenty-five years following very lit
tie was done, although the owners
cleared small sums each season. Dur
ing 1898, 1899 and 1900 the mine again
became a heavy producer of the vel
low metal.

FROM ROME MAY STRIKE LARA
MES BELOVED PRIEST IN
NAMING A BISHOP.
That Gentleman Insists There 10 no
Danger and Says the Vatican Can
Easily Find Priests More Capable
Newspapers Believe He Will be
Named.

Rev. Father Hugh Cummiskey, who
is persistently connected with the ap'
pointment of bishop for the diocese
of Cheyenne, said this morning that
while the action of the council. in SEES.
sion in Cheyenne a few days ago, was
presumed to have been secret, he did
not believe the reported appointment
of himself as bishop would be brought
about.
"The Vatican can get SO much
smarter and capable men," said the
reverend father, that I have no fear
of official lightning from Rome striking
my humble self"
1t is known, however, that the coun.
Gil had the Laramie priest under seri-
Gus consideration in its deliberations,
and that he was urged to allow his
name to be used. The fact that he
had been here for twenty-three years,
and was familiar with the diocese as
no other man in the diocese Is, will

priests of the diocese and the members
of the council are we'll nigh unanimous
in their wish that he may receive the
appointment.
He came here from his first charge,
Nebraska City, Neb., in 1879, and has
been here since, longer in one charge
than any other minister of whatever
denomination in the state, and while
his thousands of friends wish for him
every advancement the church sees fit
to make. will regret his appointment
for the very selfish reason that it will
take him from Laramie to Cheyenne,

capable or popular priest could be
chosen, nor one for whom there will

ishioners.

HE WOULD SUPPORT PARTY

Judge Groesbeck Declares that It 10 q

To the Editor of The Republican,:

To the Editor of The Republican:
Permit me to thank you for your
kind treatment of Mr.. Mills, your ad-
vice that Jul people should attend his
lecture, n for your recent warm in
vitation, made through the medium Of
socialism in it's columns.
l wish to be understood, however,
that l am not, and do moi claim to be,
the sponsor of socialism in this city.
There are others. With many here.
including yourself, l am but an anxious
inquirer. In most things, l agree with
Mr.. Mills, but am not yet convinced
that should support a party advocat-
ing socialism. The question appears
to me now to be rather academic than
political. Reforms come, they are not
made.
So much has been written by bril-
liant authors on the subject that l feel
tn n not add much to the general
knowledge by rushing into print. II
any further discussion is needed, we
might hire a hall" and have a public
debate on the question. l have not
now either time or inclination to write
about it, particularly as socialism is a
science and must be studied as a sci
ence, and am yet studying 1t. think
it will be forced Upon us by the imper-
alive logic of events"
The best things we have in this life
are those enjoyed in common. The
best of OR institutions are of a public
character. Our postoflces, public
schools, roads and highways, fire and
water departments. and the improve
ments of rivers and harbors, are shin
ing examples. The great Isthmian ca
ma and an effective irrigation system
for the arid lands must be constructed
by the government, as private capital
is timid n sees mo money in It,"
Even our recent industrial convention,
with confidence, asked from the coun-
ties appropriations from the public
funds to pay for the dissemination of
its literature. although said %appropria-
tions are of doubtful validity. Indeed,
we all seem, in these later days, to e
gard the Recommendations, state
and municipal-as grand wet nurses
for the people. 1t is. after all, q mere
question Of what degree Of public own
ership we shall have-partial or COM
plete. Mr.. Cleveland's famous aphor-
ism appears now like barking back to
the dark ages: 1T is the duty Of the
people to support their government,
not the duty of the government to sup
port its people"
While many of us are opposed to pa
ternalism in government, we are glad
ly welcoming a gloriied republic that
shall adopt f~raternalism as the basis
of all government. and that meant So
cialism. Sincerely yours,
H. V. s. GROESBECK.
