Senator Tillman struck blow
Tuesday at the paternship of the
general government with violators of
prohibition laws, when Federal per-
nits are issued for states or commun-
iues which have outlawed the whis-
Key traffic The resolution of Sena-
tor Tillman calls for report from
the committee on finance to consider
she practicability of disseminating the
Issuance of permits to retail liquor
dealers in prohibition territory. These
federal permits are the bulwark of
the blind tiger. If the seller had to
dght both the national and state
governments it would be quite a diff
lefent proposition, and would double

IRON SPRINGS HOTEL
BURNED TO GROUND

Colorado Springs. Colo. May 81
The famous Iron Springs Hotel at
Manitou, valued at $4,000. was to-
tally destroyed by fire at 4 O'Clock this
morning and Miss Ada Ray, the IL
year-old daughter of the proprietor.
narrowly escaped cremation in the
flames. She was reused from sleeping
after the fire had broken out in her
room and was carried from the build
ing in her night clothes.
The origin of the fire is a mystery.
The Iron Sprigs Hotel was built in
1885 by an eastern syndicate at cost
of $35 900. Since that time much has
been expended in improvements and
1t is now estimated that the building
could not be replaced for less than
$4,000. There was $4,000 insurance.

CONVICTS ARE MAKING
A MIGHTY GOOD ROAD

The convicts that tire employed on
road making just west of Florence are
making a good job of it The road be-
tween the Rio Grande and the Santa
Fe tracks has been raised and covered
with a layer Of shale that will lay the
dust and the road will not be so muddy
in wet spells.
The workmen have been transferred
to this side of the Santa Fe and are
working between it and Oak creek on
West Third street, where the wagon
road has not been in the best of con-
dition for a long time, owing to the
chuck holes and deep sand They are
grading the road up and when it is
finished that part of the city streets
will be as good as any.
During the last year the convicts
have done much road improvement and
making in this part of the county. The
new road leading out of Florence to
the coal camps is about as good piece
of work as one would wish for. The
roads between Florence and Portland
are to be improved this summer and
it was only recently that it was short
ened where it runs close to the Rio
Grande tracks about two and one-half
miles from here. This work was done
by Road Overseer Perkins-Florence
