take the place OF the salooa. In every
city and village there are many men
who are employed at hard work nine
or ten hours day. They are mostly
single men. They have no opportu-
nifty for relaxation-to meet and greet
one an0ther-except at the saloon.
The saloon fiourishes because 1t is the
meeting place of anybody and every
body. and It Is to the interest of the
dealer to cordially welcome all COM
ers. The editor of the Tribune and
other men of his social grade lind no
need Of the saloon. They usually
have money enough on hand at a CIV
en- time to send away and procure
their strong drink by the key or even
by the barrel. They are members of
that intangible thing known as so
ciety.' They may meet at one an
others homes for social enjoyment.
Then, too, at the saloon the Door
man may procure in small quantities
what the editor of the Tribune and
his social confreres are financially able
to keep by them at all times. If this
fortunate class of Bismarckers could
and would eyolve-a scheme by which
something in lieu of the saloon
could be provided something that
would satisfy the social cravings
Of their less prosperous broth
ers = something to show the latter
that they are Considered of some i'm
portance in the city's economy-it is
probable that many habitual but tenn
perate customers of the Capital City
saloons would be drawn from them.
But. unless present conditions are
changed, it is more than likely that
there will continue to exist in Bis
marck places where workingmen will
gather-as they gather in other cities
at the only centers where they are
heartily welcomed by their fellow
men, and where they meet on q basis
Of social equality.

This room is getting along nicely:
but the new seats have not come yet.
A committee, of which the teachers
form . part, are busy preparing a
Christmas program.
Friday afternoon Mr.. Williams read
q part Of "Timothy's Quest The
pupils from Room No. , were present.
We have received our examination
figures. The highest two averages
are: Cora Gilbert, SO 81; Curtis See
ley, sst.
We think we should have had two
holidays Thanksgiving, in the place of
one. The poor attendance on Friday
shows that It would have been as we'll
to have made that day holiday.
Who can tell us why it was that
there we're SO many absentees the day
after Thanksgiving? Was it too much
turkey? The absentees were as fol-
lows: Fay Marchant, day: Milton
Culbertson, halliday: Edna Paulson,

RAILROAD MOVEMENTS
Reported that Rio Grande Will Com
plete the Work of Standardiz-
ing the Narrow Guage
Between Junction
and Denver.

Among the various rumors and re-
ports that has arisen since George
Gould's visit TO his Colorado lines are
reports to the effect that among the
important projects considered by Mr.
Gould during his visit to Denver were
two of local interest as well as state
interest. one was the construction of
a connection with the Moffat road and
the other the broad guaging of the
line between Salida and Montrose.
For some time the Rio Grande COM
pany has felt the necessity of short
enIng the distance from Denver to
Salt Lake city. The circuitous route
via Pueblo increases the distance ap-
proximately 1926 miles, The plan. IL
is said. is to make joint arrange
ments with the Moffat company to
build from Dotsero on the Rio Grande
to Kremmling on the Moffat road. fol-
lowing the Grand river. which would
be the most feasible route and the
least expensive to construct. Such an
arrangement would shorten the sched-
Salt Lake city.
To standardize the Rio Grande
across Marshall pass has always been
desired by the management of the
road and this work may be done soon.
The line has been made standard be-
tween Grand Junction and Montrose.
leaving a gap to be broad guaged
from Salida to Montrose. a distance
of 136 miles
With the completion of this. the
Rio Grande would have two standard
guage roads between Denver and
Grand junction.
Mr.. Gould would make no state
ment regarding these projects. but
that they are being considered is not
questioned in railroad circles.

Denver papers are making much
over the prosperity of that city and
the state generally, because of the
greatincrease of the deposits of their
national banking institutions. While
We are glad TO note that Denver is
prosperous. according to the fiscal re-
ports h her banking institutions
Grand Junction is no less so. There
has been an increase in two institu-
tions alone of nearly quarter of a
million OF deposits and if the state
ments Were called for today there
would doubtless be fully that much.
There are two millions of deposits in
the three banking institutions of this
city, This is a showing of which
everyone is greatly proud. We an
ticipate that this city will in very
few years be the financial center of
western Colorado.
