of start. 1t is to be hoped that he knows where
of he speaks and that before the season opens next
summer may be in position to entertain tour
lists who may desire to take advantage of the hos

here for the purpose of remaining some time so
that they take advantage of the best invest

New companies being incorporated in the
district every day. As long these companies
represent solid interests and are not organized for
the purpose of forcing themselves upon the east

thing for the district. Idaho Springs should en-

The question of overcapitalization in the matter
of mining companies is beginning to attract the
attention it should. Every investor should make
it d point to look up everything in connection
with mining company, but especially should he
pay attention to the capitalization for really that
represents the price asked for the proposition. No
man expect returns where the properties
owned must be limited in the matter of produc-
ton and where the number of shares of capitalize
ton is all out of proportion with the possibilities
or probabilities of production. See that when the
total production is divided by the number of
shares of stock that you will have some chance
for dividend

The school standard of the city is a matter of
general and generous congratuation among the
people During the present term the patrons
pupils and teachers have worked together harmon
iously and great good has followed. A friend of
the school remarked the other day: "I was in
the east last month and noted what seemed to me
to be an innovation and a good thing in connec-
tion with the public schools In the town in which
1 was visiting the local bankers, grocers, dry
goods men, physicians, attorneys and all classes
and professions in the business and professional
life of the city invited to make haf.hour
talks to the pupils. 1 believe in this idea because
it is practical and because the students learn a
great deal more from these little talks than they
could learn out of books in long time The idea
is good one and 1 simply speak of it so that the
schools here may think over it if they like. 1t
ought to be good thing to work up interesting
the schools and at the time it would give
these people who address the schools an idea of
what is being accomplished for the good of the
young people here in Idaho Springs"

There is no reason why the Trocadero should
not furnish the people of the city with entertain
ment during the winter with roller skates The
amusement is mixed with considerable physical
culture, foot ball and other light sports so that
people who followed the idea would be leading the
strenuous life. Let have roller skates and a
good time all winter.

The Irish of Denver are rising in their wrath
because a play has been put on that shows the
Irish in a bad light. 1t is now time for the Jews
to kick on the turns and falls taken out of their
nationality, the Dutch kick on Rudolph and
Adolph and the Swedes can make roar on Ole
Olson. Such little two-by nine craftsmanship as
that displayed by the fannel-mouth Dunleavy
makes people over the state tired.

The chamber of commerce ought to be looking
out for some new hotel propositions that appear to
be in the air at the present time. Bring them
