May Ask for a Receiver.

Another chapter is about to be add
ed to the pyrotechical history of the
Denver and Southwestern Railroad
company. Plans are now under way
for the reorganization of the company
and are being worked out in New
York. While nothing definite can be
learned as to the method by which the
reorganization will be effected, it is
understood that the most probable
solution of the company's difficulties
will be found through an application
at an early date for a receiver.
1t is understood that the annual re-
port of the company has been the
cause of dissatisfaction among the
holders of the securities who have
demanded reorganization. This
report when put up beside that of the
Colorado Springs and Cripple Creex
District railroad showed that the short
line had the best of the situation and
that it was evident that something
must be done. The earnings of the
Short Line for the year ending June
30 showed Surplus of 1868, 302. in
the face of the fact that for several
months during that year it waged a
fierce rate war with its rival. On the
other hand the Denver and Southwest.
ern is barely earning its fixed charges.
A railroad official conversant with the
situation said:
81 few months ago the control of
the Denver and Southwestern passed
from the Boston people into the hands
OF Kessler and Co, of New York. l
understand that Gillett got out at that
time and cleened up over 81, 600, 600
on the deal, though he is still nomi-
nally president of the company.
Kessler snd Co. paid $50 share for
all of the stock which is now selling
around 10 and 3 respectively, while
the bonds are quoted at 90. This sit
uatios makes receiver the only
logical outcome. The Denver and Rio
Grande does not want the road. as il
wants the Short Line and no one else
will have it. Denver Times.

VOTE FOR THE ROAD TAX.

Next Saturday, June 9th, is the
day appointed by the commission
srs' court of this county to hold an
election for the purpose of deciding
whether we will levy a tax of ten
cents on the II hundred dollars
valuation for road and bridge pur-
poses. This is quite a small amount
and | have heard some good citizens
say that they thought it too small to
accomplish any great noun Of
good, but this is all asked for at
this time, aud when a man has
travelled over these Ellis county
roads as ! have, and therefore
knows the deplorable condition of
the roads, bridges and culverts and
slush holes left by last winters
rains and these holes in the roads
stand gaping to catch and hold all
the water hat chances to fall in
them-I say when ! know all
these facts / am willing to vote a
ten cents tax on every dollars
worth / possess, personally, and
on every dollars worth of the
Daily Light and Weekly Enterprise,
in both of which / am interested.
The amount may be small, but
Judge Hawkins and the commits
sioners, in all of whom / have the
greatest confidence, say if we give
them this additional tax they can,
to some extent, relieve the hOrrid
conditions of our roads, bridges and
culverts. The citizens OF Ellis
county must do something TO re-
lieve the situation as regards the
roads until We can see our way
clear to vote more taxes upon our
selves, and ! for one, am very much
in fayOr.of this direct tax, and on
June 9th will march straight to the
polls and vote for this small tax.
The citizens of this county voted
for our county Judge and commits
]sioners, all received majorities for
their respective offices, and we
have confidence IN their Judgment
and ability TO eXpend whatever
money is placed in their hands TO
our best advantage.
To be sure, this tax Will not give
Us permanent roads, but it will give
as better roads, and it appears 10 he
all the people are willing TO vote for
that purpose Just now. ! know the
opposition of the people generally
TO bonded indebtedness, yet it is the
opinion of this paper and my own
Is well, that the only method by
which We can get permanent roads
in this county is by issuing bonds
and building them. This, however.
is not to be thought of now. The
tax We can get, and with it work a
wonderful Improvement in the roads.
l hope every citizen interested in
the well being and prosperity Of his
county will take time Saturday,
June g, 10 20 10 the polls and vote
this little additional tax. Ii will be
worth more than it costs in the saw
ing on your vehicles and horses in
