GOLD MILL
A Camp That Will Even.
tually Prove a World
WOnder
AS A GOLD PRODUCER
Remarkably Rich Assays on Dozens Of
Prospects Of that and Surround
ing Districts

Damned through no lack of
merit in its mineral producing
possibilities this camp is under
the bann of prejudice usual to
mining camps where failures have
been made. The fact that the
failures were the result of mis-
management and ignorance cuts
no figure in an outsiders estimate
of the situation. No amount of
explanation can overcome this
prejudice for at least a generation
or two.
Gold Hill will, upon being Civ
en- a fair showing by intelligently
directed development and ex-
ploration, prove as good a gold
camp as has ever been opened up
in any section of the Rocky
Mountains, none excepted.
On the writer's desk are nine
assay certificates of returns from
a many samples, taken from
property in this camp, that show
the following respective values:
$1,000: S25I 90: S27S,00: S425,OO:
S525,00; $4,000: $4,000; $4,000:
and 100000. The property
from which the samples we're tax
en- has been for several yeats own
ed by Chicago parties, who either
will not, or cannot, prosecute de-
velopement If they would only
give it a fair start the property
would not only pay for its own
development, but could most as.
suedly contribute a surplus to the
sinking fund.
There are other properties o
equal merit in the camp, but the
owners of some have used then
for other than Legitimate mining
purposes.
A review of the situation il
this, as in other, camps through.
out the great empire mining dis
trict of the Upper, Platte, cal bu
lead to the conclusion: that thu
mineral resources are immense
but that, until supplied will

development must be compare

deposites, however rich, are no
sufficient for real mining capita

other matters in the letter that it
would not be proper to divulg at
this time, bearing directly on the
building of this road,
While the project is yet in its
infancy and. to a certain extent,
in the hands of its promoters. yet
there are gigantic influences be-
hind it. While it may be pos
sible that the project would excite
the ambitions of the directing in
huences of some of the establish

competitive fighting feeling
aroused through the possible con-
summation of the project, as it in
no way affect the reduction of the
volumn of business now tributary

PERFECT HORSES A VALLEY PRODUCT

The prospects now are exceed
ingly good for the valley of the
Upper Platte excelling in get
of horses that will be unequalled
as roadsters or draft horses. Ranch
men throughout the valley have
long ago passed up the broncho,
and have been gradually securing
a better, more domestic and reli-
able animal. There can be no
reason why Platte valley horses
should not, in a few years, excel
in a degree, making them famous
throughout the world. Careful
selection of sire and mares and
the climatic and food conditions
will do the rest in the way of rapid
growth and a perfect horse

LARGEST SINGLE RESERVE
The Medicine Bow Forest Reserve now
Takes First Place Among Uncle
Sans Preserves

The Medicine Bow Forest Re-
serve is classed as the largest re-
serve under the management of
one supervisor. The Yellowstone
Park Reserve contains a greater
number of acres, but it is under
the management of three different
supervisors. The Medicine Bow
Reserve, as it now stands. contains
approximately 100000 acres of
forests.
Capt. L. G. Davis, the supervi-
sor of this Reserve, left Tuesday
for North Park, where he will join
Forest Ranger j. H. Mullison,
(who left here Saturday with a
pack outfit, at Walden, and they
will begin the work of familiar
Using themselves with the new
part of their preserve. They will
journey to Hot Sulphur Springs,
Colo, together AMI establish tenn
porary headquarters at that place.
Capt Davis says there will be
no attempt made during the year
1905 to supervise or control the
grazing of stock on thispart of the
Reserve. That matter will be
taken up next January and grad
uaiIy systematised as has been the
work on this end of the preserve.
There will be work in the new adj
dition for from seven to eight new
forest rangers, who, so far as pos
sihle, will be selected from the
people of the section in which the
preserve is located.

J.. P. SHORT LINE
The Fort Steele Branch
From the Main Line
Up This Valley
A PROPOSED CUTOFF
From Julesburg to Salt Lake City under
Consideration, With Many other
improvements

The Denver dailies are again
building through the North
Platte valley. The alledged
scheme of the heavy weights in
the great fight for the carriage of
the mine, ranch and range pro-
duets of this now most desirable
territory, is being exploited by
reporters and correspondents,
able, only, to write around the
outer circle of facts.
4 branch by the Union Pacific
from Fort Steele, or Walcott, on
the main line, is an assured, and
to the business men and miners
of the district, a pleasing fact.
Until actual construction may
have begun none but the execu-
tive body of that big corporation
is in a position to state any def
mite time.
Long before any word of the
Motfat project, the Union Pacific
people took up the matter of a
short line, just north of the ter
ritory through which surveys
have been made for the Moffat
line, and they found that it was
possible to shorten the distance
between Julesburg and Salt Lake
City about 100 miles. The route
is through territory even richer
than hal claimed for the Motfat
road. The topography of the
route referred to affords an easy
grade. void of mountain obstruc-
tons, necessitating expensive
tunnel features.
a railroad will be found neces-
sary to the transportations needs
OF this territory inside of the next
decade and, if not secured by the
Vnion Pacific enterprise, will, in
all probability, be the theatre of
a great electrical transportation
exhibit, as every condition favors
an enterprise of that character
an unbroken line of coal beds,
oil fields, gold, copper and the
richest farm and ranch lands to be
found, with "A water-power pushed
from above the clouds.
The keen still hunt for invest
ment in industrial prospects,
promising a fair return of profits,
must, within the next two years,
result in the discovery of this
neck o woods" and thus demon
strate as a wealth. breeder for the
homeseeker, the miner, manufac-
turer and transportation company.
But the people of this valley
are getting tired of the delay in
the promised railroad construc-
ton which they feel that they are
entitled to, and are stirred up to
the point of doing something for
themselves. An electric line be-
tween Saratoga and the Union
Pacific may be a hustling feature
OF this community within the next
year.
Let the U. p. and the @. w. &
l. build; there is still room for the
Saratoga Electric Railway.

This looks to us like rare op-

some of the above industries, even
one of the number which would be
very acceptable just now. Hence
we suggest that our capitalists

at least an effort to secure one or
more of these manufacturing
plants. There is one thing GER
tain that these factories are going

must be done for this city If we
expect it to remain in the pro-
gressive procession.

No Waste Room
In the Body

A muscle or igament that con.
tracts will get both shorter and
thicker. There is no waste room
in the body-every bit of space is
exactly filed by some structure.
If muscle or lgament is thick
ened it will encroach upon some
softer structure, like blood YES
sci, and limit or stop it's work; or
if a nerve is pinched, irritation
may develop so as to exaggerate
its action. If a hose is stepped
upon, water will not flow through
it If telegraph wire is ground
ed. it will not transmit a message
so with nerves and blood vessels
when they become abnormally
pressed between the bones and
muscles, as at disturbed joints IN
the spine or limbs.
Osteopathy ascertains where
characteristic mechanical troubles
have developed in the body in ev-
cry disease-and the diseases due
to such causes, in whole or part,
are legion. Practically all dis
eases may be caused by mechanl-
cal disturbance. By removing
these abnormal conditions, Oste-
opathy enables the body to re-
cover from it's diseases. 1t takes
the ground that these known and
verifable distractions to natural
bodily processes would better be
removed to coax back health than
dragging the body in such a way
a to hide the effects of such dan
eerous physical handicaps, which
has been the most popular sort OF
practice in the past. In a word,
Osteopathy removes the cause;
cure naturally follows.
