c. & s. to Use Electricity.

Denver, Oct 12-The Republican
says: The Colorado & Southern will
begin this week ballasting with Stag
its track between Denver and Boulder
This is work preparatory to adding
electricity to the road.
The work that the Colorado &
Southern will do between Denver and
Boulder will be more extensive than
any that it has done on any part Of
the system for years. The line was
one of the first built of the system and
1t has followed winding creeks, as was
the custom in early railroad construc.
ton. Many of these big curves are to
be removed by building cut-offs. grades
are to be reduced in many places and
when finished the Denver-Boulder line
will be one of the best in Colorado.
There is enormous traffic between the
towns, both in passenger and freight,
as all the Boulder mines ship to Den.
yer.
AS soon as the improvements in the
road are completed it will be trans.
formed into an electric line. This will
be for passenger service mostly. but 1t
is possible that freight trains will also
be operated by electricity.
II is the intention of the Colorado &
Southern to straighten out curves and
reduce grades on all of its northern
Colorado lines and as much as posi-.
BILE on the road between Denver and
Golden and Idaho Springs. These are
the lines that will be made electric un.
der the name of the Denver & Inter.
urban Railway Company. The com.
