Concrete in Mining.

In February of this year Henry W.
Edwards, superintendent of the plant
of The Grand Junction Smelling COM
psny. contributed paper ON Con
crete in Mining and Metallurgical En-
gineering.' to be read AT the annual
meeting of the Al ierican Institute of
Mining Engineers, which met at At
lantic City, New Jersey, in that
month. The paper was SO well re-
ion that it has been printed in the
form of pamphlet for distribution.
The pamphlet contains twenty two
pages of matter illustrated by draw
ings and diagrams and the subject is
almost exhausted under the brilliant
pen of Mr.. Edwards He cites ex-
periments with which he has had
connection, on the durability of the
material and says that concrete looks
better; is stronger. cheaper, more
durable. more quickly built, and
above all requires no skilled labor. "
Altogether the article referred to is
most complete and should be in the
hands to be studied by all builders.
1t is exhaustive on the subject and it
would doubtless save thousands of dol
lars to builders, as Mr.. Edwards as
serts if rightly made it is stronger
than stone or rock work.
To show the amount of weight con-
crete will carry he qnotes in the PAM
phlet the following experiment.

Application for Injunction

John H. Murnhy. the general conn
sci of the Western Federation of Min
ers arrived in the citv last night on
the delayed narrow guage trim. 1t
was too late to take up the matter of
application for an injunction and also
it could not be done because the pa
pers in the matter had been sent to
Telluride.
Mr.. Murphy stated to the reporter
for lis pape- thar the papers would
be down today from Telluride to Mon
trose and then formal application
would be made before Judge Stevens
for tho injunction TO restrain tho citi-
zens of Telluride from deporting or
interfering with miners who may re-

Russian Reports.
Sentinel Special.

Sentinel Special.
London. March 22nd. m.-Every
bit of the war news allowed to get
out at tie present time is promulgated
apparently for the purpose of creating
sentiment in the minds of the Chinese.
From Toxic a report is sent that
Port Arthur has fallen. There is
absolutely no confirmation of this.
To counter balance the effect this
has on the susceptible Chinese. Russia
is responsible for the report and yarn
that the Valdivostok squadron has
gone to attack Yezzo is and to shut off
the Japanese supply of coal.
The story of the Japanese having
appeared off New Chwang is offset by
the discredited tale that the Russian
squadron has effected combination.
China is the keynote of the whole
situation and is likely to be swung by
either nation.

The LaCOurt Hotel.

N. 1. Nearing, the proprietor of
the new LaCourt hotel. which is
nearing completion, located at the cor
ner of 2nd and Main streets, has Just
returned from Denver. where he made
arrangements for the shipment to TINS
city, of all the fine furniture which
he has provided for the new hotel.
This furniture was in storage in Dem
YER and it was the first thought of Mr..
Nearing that he would furnish the ho-
tel with furniture less expensive than
be had provided. but on second con-
sideration he thought nothing was
too good for Grand Junction in the
hotel line and he has finally conolud-
ed that all the elegant furnishing
originally provided shall be placed
in the LaCourt.
The furniture throughout Consists
of solid mahogany. curly birch,
1aarte1ed sawed oak, these will be
placed in the sleeping apartments.
each room to be decorated In color
ing to harmonize with the furniture
scheme. All the beds will be provid-
ed with box springs and hair mattress
ses and the floors throughout the hotel
will be covered with Bokhara and
Persians rugs of beautiful design and
exquisite workmanship.
The lobby, which has always been
one of the places to which Mr. Nearing
has paid special attention in his con-
nectlon with hotel work, will be fin
ished with II ission furniture; the
walls and floors to follow out that idea
throughout in this particular portion
of the hotel.
Above the main entrance will be
delightful retreat in the shape OF
roof garden. elegantly appointed. and
containing at all times potted plants
and flowers.
That the LaCourt will have no
equal as delightfully."- furnished
European hotel in western Colorado
is unquestionable. Mr.. Nearing has
had ample experience in some of the
leading hostelries in the country,
both as manager and as owner, to
fully equip him to provide such ac-
comodations as the most critical
might desire. One look at the gen.
tleman himself will satisfy the skep-
tieal that Mr.. Nearing should be fully
equipped to conduct Just such an
establishment as Grand Junction has
so long looked for.
Until verJ recently Mr.. Nearing
had charge of the private lodge and
inn of ]. @. Osgood. of the Colorado
Fuel and Iron company at Redstone
and with such experience added to a
large amount of other successful ex-
perienoe. the opening of the LaCourt
should be hailed with delight.
In conversation with Mr.. Nearing
yesterday he said that it was not his
intention in the least to interfere with
the building OF any large hotel propc-
sision. He does not intend to have a
dining room attachment at present,
unless the several hotel propositions
do not materialize. then he will add
twenty more rooms to his building
and also a dining room with all the
accessories of first class caravan sary.
On the whole Grand Junction is to
be congratulated that it is proposed
that such an elegantly equipped hotel
will open shortly, as its arrangement
throughout will equal anything in
Western Colorado.

Another labor political party has been formed in
tho Esd Assembly District. and its title cannot be
said to indicate that it is a partisan organization
The name of the party is the Independent Demo-
cratic Republican Union Labor Association which
is going TO organize workers in every Assembly
district
The new party met yesterday at No. 1884 Am
sterdam-ave. where there fair attendance
and after listening to several speeches adopted the
following platform:
When those employed in any profession trade or
calling through their accredited representatives
make the rules and regulations under which they
are willing work no other authority should be
recognized.
This platform is unusually brief for labor body.
but II was announced that the association stands
also for the following panks:
