Paul Wilson.

Everybody admires and respects
Paul Wilson. There is a hustler, a
man of enterprise and man full Of
ability amounting in some respects to
what the world calls genius. Few
men have hone more for the upbuild-
ing of Pueblo than he. A fair ex.
ample is seen in the upbuilding Of
Fairmount Park and the beautifyinR
of Mineral Palace Park. He has al.
ways been closely connected with all
that go to make Pueblo bigger and
better, and the voters will remember
this at the poles. Having been nom
mated for the position of county
clerk in the Republican convention,
he is now making a strenuous cam
paign and will be elected to that
highly important position. He is
capable of filling that office ably and
well, and the people of this cumunitv
will be conserving their own interests
by electing him. Vote for Paul Will

WIN A HOTEL.
Somebody is Going to Get the
Fine $25o,ooo Imperial Ho-
tel for Only $1.oo and They're
Guessing Fast.

1t costs even one dollar to get
chance on drawing the fine
Imperial hotel in this city, the
simple conditions being that the
person who calculates the near
est total number of votes cast
for president OF the United States
at the election Nov. 9Th, will get
the hotel.
Figures to enable persons to
guess are to be found in large
display elsewhere in this paper.
The plan is a thoroughly fair
one and the promoters of it are
reliable people, Messrs. Miller and
3ahne having the endorsement OF
the Business Mems Association.
OF course you have as many
chances as you put dollars into
the deal, and there are several
men in Bessemer who are con-
fident that they have the hotel
within their grasp now and are
planning what to do with it.
It's all right to take a chance
but we wouldn't advise anybody
to give up a good job depending
entirely upon their chance of get
ting the hotel.

SALE OF PROPERTY.
]. A. Richie Sells Out For the
Large Sum of Six Thousand
Five Hundred Dollars.

J. a. Richie has sold his build.
ing and lot at 32I Northern av-
cnue TO Sam HONG for $1,000.
1t was a cash transaction and
the deal was closed one day this
week.
The property consists of one
story brick building on twenty
feet OF ground, and lies just east
OF the Allard & Mehrlich block.
Five years ago Mr.. Richie
bought the property for 5000, and
nobody else seemingly wanted it
even at that small price. The
profit he makes is something en-
ormously large and goes to show
how the business section of Bess-
emer has improved within the
last few years.
OF course, some of the advance
in price was on account of the
saloon business which goes with
the real estate and building, but
all the same the increase in the
property is very large.
1t pays to build up town; it
pays to make public improve
ments. and Mr.. Richie is a firm
believer in the virtue of pushing
things along.

item in the running of the mills, MIR.
Salter is ever on the lookout for i'm
proving the supply and economic
methods in vogue. 1t has been dis
covered that there is a great seepage
leakage from reservoirs Nos. z and
3, and the water does not escape
through the dams, but through a
porous strata beneath the foundations
Of the dams. The continuous pour
ing of molten Stag on the outside OF
the dam of No. 3 reservoir has no
tendency to suppress the escape OF
water but it adds strength to the
dam. Mr.. Salter has had the pre-
liminary survey made for ditch to
tap Salt Creek south of the plant and
enter the works at point southeast
of the tin plate mills. This ditch will
save the seepage water from the
reservoirs, and be about two miles
in length. 1t will be three feet on
the bottom with six foot surface
width, and have an average depth OF
about six feet. 1t is expected that
grading gang from the yard depart
