Colorado 10 70 have another railroad
that will Be operated indepsndsstlv ot
any Of the railroads now in the ssass
and that particular road will bs ruH
from this county aud the man behisd

road company and will run from
either Florence or Canon City "a
Colorsdo Springs and frou there "a
Pueblo. to Trinidad and on through
New Mexico and 60 FL Paso. Texas. =
distance Of $50 miles. 1t will b q
standard ssuRe roHd and one OF the
best equipped in the country.
As far - The Tribune has been
advised. only the preliminary work.
that of raising the money has N far
been undertaken. and it 10 said
that the proposition 10 now we'll
financed and the necessary money
without doubt has been assured.
r. u. Heath. Of Canon City who
Is the president OF the railroad COM
pany has just returned to his home
in Canon City from . several weeks
trip to Chicago. New York, and och :
er large cities where he had beer
working In the interest Of the road
aud It 10 said the necessary money
has been secured The men putting
up the cash are residents Of New
York
At present It has not been decided
just which of the two towns will; have
the terminal of the road--Cauon CITY
or Florence, but . proposition will be
made to both places and the one offer.
ing the best and most concessions viii,
secure the terminal. which will be
no small advantage Tor any town to
possess. No partiality will be shown.
the one making the best offer will
draw the prize.
Tn object Of this great railroad
is to haul the coal from the mines
the company will own and now owns
to its destination. Mr.. Heath who is
the president Of the railroad company y
is also the president and general man.
aser Of the Great Western Goal com.
pspy operating the Cuckoo mine at
Heathton. 1t is said that there ID
some classification on the present
freight tariffs. making the coal too
costly when 1t reaches the point Of
destination. So Mr.. Heath decided
to build his own railroad.
The daily tribune., 1905-02-07

The prod docsion Of the Cuckoo mine
is to b greatly enlarged probably
trebied. in . very short tine and
there 10 . heavy demand for the coal.
The r.ce 1t purchase Of 100 sSres Of
Land frsm r. A. Reynolds, will give
the company sufficient ground TO afford
. mopstrous projection for decades to
come.
Then the Great Western Coal COM
nauy has just secured several hundred
acres Of ooal land near Trinidad. in
the southern part OF the state also
another large coal reserve in New
Aexico. In addition to this IL 10 re-
ported that tine company will purchase
number Of coal mines in Colorado
and New Mexico that are now being
developed.
The new Colorado line will tap
all these recent rich coal acquisitions
Of the Great Western Coal company.
The route to Colorado Springs
either from Florence or she county
seat town has not been decided
upon and it 10 not Known now
whether the road will be laid over
the mountains or 70 around the
hills. The building of the road to
Colorado Springs means nearly .
central location Of Colorado for
northern. eastern aud western points
Of the state. The line south from
Colorado Springs to the new coal
veins possessed BY the Great West
ern Goal company means cheap trans.
portAtiou to Ell PAso and distributing
points.
The new venture. 1t 10 understood
will cost something like 81. .O00. 900 or
Is. 600. 600.
When the work Of making the sur
veys will be commenced can not be
ascertained at this time, but 1t il
thought the engineers will be put in
the field in very short time. For
that matter = small proportion Of the
grading has been commenced. that Of
grading the line from the Chandler
mine to the Cuckoo property, . dis
tance Of 2H miles The laying Of
the rails will be commenced just -
soon ~ the grade 10 completed. This
Ia done to have immediate Rio Grsuds
connections and the company's own
engines will be used. Another con.
tract will be let soon to build . spur
from the Cuckoo mine to the Santa Fe
railroad at Rockvale to have direct
Santa Fe connection for the present.
The oompsny's own engines will also
be used on this spur.

BLIZZARD AND SNOW.
The First Of the Season-Weather
Was the Coolest Of the Season.

| The First Of the Season-Weather
Was the Coolest Of the Season.
The blizzard, which has been raging
in the East for the past two or three
days and which is reported as being
unusually severe, struck ArdmOrc with
fun force. II may be said that ii was
the scycrcst spell of the winter. Old
/ timers say tn weather was a remind.
er Of cold wave that was experienced
/ in Ardmoro about FIVE years ago
/ While the thermometer did not ap.
proach the cold stage reached at that
time it was almost as disagrocablc.
| The citizens of Ardmorc recall vividly
I to memory the cold February of that
year and it begins to appear that we
are going to have a repetition of IT,
As a rule the winters since that period
have been exceptionally mind. there.
fore the weather for the past few
days has not bcon fair sample of
what We have enjoyed In the past It
only served to demonstrate that rca;
ly mild weather has been the rule in
the past, and that the severity was the
exception
10 IS doubtful If the ground hog
made his appearance yesterday but
his day will long be remembered as
being a very disagrccablc one
Toward night combination OF
snow and sleet began to fan and
lasted long into the night Pedcs
trians hurying homeward to escape
the storm could make little progress
ON The slippery sidewalks. The streets
/ were deserted and business was re.
/ ported quiet in all lines, excepting Of
course, the coal man.
The weather man, who scorns the
wisdom Of the grounding. certainly
gave him a cool reception yesterday

and snow for today. Tomorrow ne
says snow or rain will fall The snow
which fell was very light The thcr
