A CANON MAN ELECTED.
Jesse II. Waters Now President of
The Denver & Southwestern
Railroad COMPANY.

By the election OF Jesse II. Waters Of
this city few days ago as the presi-
dent OF the subsidiary companies the
FIRST step has been taken is the re-
organization of the Denver & South
western Railroad Company. Mr..
Waters takes the place of W. K. Gill
lett, builder of the Midland Terminal
and the promoter of the Denver &
Southwestern, who has resigned in
order to give his attention to his private
affairs.
As the successor TO the vacant post
Mr.. Waters has been chosen to fill the
presidencies of the Midland Terminal
Railway company, the Florence & Grip
pie Greek Railroad company, the Canon
City & Cripple Greek Railroad company
the Golden Circle Railroad company,
the Colorado Trading and Transfer
company and the La Bella Mill, Water
and Power company. These companies
operate in the Cripple Greek mining
district
Mr.. W. L. Gillett, who for many
years has been identified with the
companies above named in the capacity
of president, has found that his private
business requires his undivided atten-
ton and he consequently has resigned
his position. The loss of Mr.. Gillett's
services is keenly felt by his associates
In place of Mr. Giliett the boards of
directors of the companies interested
have elected Mr.. J. H Waters
president, with full charge of the affairs
of the companies Mr.. Waters has for
many years been connected with these
railroads in the capacity of general
agent, general superintendent and
general manager, and by reason Of his
experience as railroad man in both
the traffic and operating department
and his wide acquaintance with men
and affairs in and out of the Cripple
Greek district is considered excep-
tionally well fitted to fill the position
left vncant by the resignation OF Mr..
Gillett. Mr.. Waters still retains his
position of general manager
Mr.. Waters many Canon City friends
extend their congratulations upon the
honors which have come to him.

ton. whose ohjes; it is to awaken an
intelligent interest among the citizens
of the state in forestry and forest pres-
ervation. The association Of which W.
G. NJ. Stone, OF Denver. is president,
is doing much TO arouse people to a
realization Of the danger OF denuding
the mountains Of their timber, which
has been going on at an appalling rate
Of ancient years.
The timber 10 a great conservator Of
precipitation and moisture, and, con-
sequently. is indirectly responsible for
the agricultural conditions which pre-
vail in the valleys and lowlands along
the eastern base Of the Rocky Noun
tains. With all OF the timber cut of
and destroyed the mountains would
present an extremely barren appear
ance and its effect upon agriculture
and It attendant callings would be
marked and disastrous. That such a
movement as the state association has
inaugurated is necessary is evidenced
by the fact that within little more
than generation OF fire and pillagc
the mountain forests of Colorado have
been reduced from $1,000 square miles
to less than sixth OF that area
The petition circulated here last
week, In conjunction with similar
ones from other sections of the state,
will be forwarded to the secretary OF
the Department of the Interior at
Washington in the hopes that the
general government will enact more
stringent legislation to prevent the
destruction Of timber on the public
lands, both from fire and the piracy Of

Rev.J. Kent Rizer and wife lef,
yesterday for Springfield, Illinois
where they will visit relatives of the
latter until about the middle of next
month when they will proceed tc
Clinton, Iowa. where Rev. RiIer will
assume the pastorate OF q recently
organized congregation of the Luthern
church. Rev. Rizer and wife came
here from Macsmb, Illinois, three years
ago and by their genislity and friendli-
ness OF disposition ingratiated them
selves into the good opinion of all with
whom they came in contact. During
the three years of Rev. Rizers pastorate
Of Trinity English Luthern church he
made many friends and acquaintances,
all Of whom regret his departure to q
new field of labor. For some time past
Mrs. Risers health has been n source
of solicitude to her husband and on the
advice of her physician he resigned his
work here in order to accompany her
to lower altitude, as a change of that
CnaraCter was reComtuenueu as Iihtiy
to result in material benefit to her.
Under the n,inistration of Rev. Rirer
new place of worship has been erect
for Trinity congregation and the be-
nevolences and enterprises of the
church carried on in highly successful
and gratifying manner. Rev. Rizer
and wife were favorites with all who
knew them and il is regarded as very
unfortunate that Mrs. Rizers health
precluded them from more extended
residence in Canon City. Wherever
their lot may be cast Rev. Rizer and
wife may rely upon the best wishes OF
wide circle of admirers here for the
utmost degree of health. happiness and
prosperity, At a meeting of the coun
ell Of Trinity church last Monday night

Of the pulpit left vacant by the resigna-
tion OF Rev. Rizer.
