WILL MAKE A NIAGARA.
Great Engineering Feat to Be Carried
Out in Southern Colorado.


Out in Southern Colorado.
Out in Colorado nature has given the
people no Niagaras to harness so as to
get electricity for power and lighting
purposes. but little thing like that does
not feaze the energetic westerners. They
are going to build some artificial Mag
aras The first is now in course of con-
struction.
AS an engineering feat it has decidedly
novel features. Two or three rivers are
to be lifted bodily, so to speak, from their
beds and transferred to canals, which
will feed an immense reservoir. From
This RESERVOIR the water will be carried
through another canal and dropped
through great pipes over the edge of a
precipice 1000 feet high. The power
house in which the electricity will be
generated will be situated at the foot of
the precpice Ultimately it will have a
capacity of about 10000 horse power.
The site is "a miles from Silverton,
in southern Colorado. The initial cost of
the undertaking will approximate ST.
600, 900. while the ultimate plan will in
yolve an expenditure of about $1,000
600. When the project is completed it
is expected to revolutionize things in
southern Colorado. With an abundant
supply of cheap power many enterprises
can be carried through successfully
which hitherto have been blocked by the
high cost of power when obtained from
steam. From the power house at the
foot of the precipice electricity will be
carried on wires strung on poles for
miles throughout the surrounding coun-
trv. If the results come up to expecta-
lions second artificial Niagara and
power house will be established few
miles to the south.

Of the Kentucky Distillers association
who has for several weeks been on
business trip to Washington, d. c.. and
other eastern cities TO do away with
the double tax on liquors imported from

Liquor men say that Mr. Wathen has
manifested deep interest in this mat
ter and that while in Washington he
viii call upon the secretary Of the treas
ury and present the matter before that
official with view of arriving. if pos
sible, at some conclusion by which the
American distillcrs and dealers can be
relieved Of the double duty on goods
shipped 10 Porto Rico without special
legislation on the subject
Under present conditions the local
dealers and all others in the United
States have to pay in addition to sllO
gallon internal revenue tax eighty cents
gallon as a provincial duty levied by
the Porto Rican authorities, whereas
the dealers from foreign countries get
a rebate Of the internal tax of their own
country This practically shuts the
American manufactured liquors out of
the Porto Rican market. and, consider.
ing the cheap water transportation from
this city 10 the island. this falls espe-
cially heavy upon the Kentucky manu-
facturcrs.
Mr. Nathcn, as president of the Ken
lucky Distillers' Association. has taken
mp the matter and will cndcavor 10
find some means by which the evil can
be- corrected by departmental regula-
ton. II this is not practicable, an ef-

recting the evil Persons who have in.
yestigated the matter have come to the
conclusion that the only way the double
taxation can be set aside j. by a spe-
cial act of congress. although il is hoped |
that Mr.. Wathen will he able to pro.
cure from the secretary of the treasury |
