OPIUM HAS ADVANCED.
Starting At $3.50 Per Pound 1t Has In
creased To $3.50

NEW YORK, July 24,-Opium has ad-

the first of June to an extent that is
little short OF phenomenal. Starting on
the date mentioned at $3.50 a pound,
duty paid, prices at first advanced grad
ually and lately by leaps and bounds,
until the present price of $3.50 pound
has ben reported.
The advance is due to unfavorable
crop condition in Turkey. the main pro-

BUTTE, Mont, July 2S,--A special to

AS result of the filings in the local
land office today only nine persons made
entry for homes on the Huntley project,
This makes total of 20 out of pos
sible hundred and means that the num-

He Holds Tight to This Meal Ticket.

Mrs. Bender had meal ticket
that was issued by her in 1886
handed TO her the other day by a
stranger. When the stranger had
eaten a 4O-cent meal he stepped
TO the counter aud threw out
blue ticket. Mrs. Bender has
been using yellow meal tickets
for the past ten years or more.
and, without paying any attention
to fhe printing on the blue ticket.
she passed it back to the stranger
saying:
That is no good here"
We'll. you are the individual
who sold it to me niaeteen years
ago and ! want you to punch my
meal from it,"
Mrs. Bender looked at the
ticket a second time and recog-
nized the fact that 1t was like the
ones issued in those days and did
as the stranger directed She
asked the privilege OF retaining
the ticket as a souvenir. but the
stranger refused as there was
25cts more to be punched. He
left without leaving his name, but

have finished their contract, and
one of the greatest engineering
feats of the year has been success
fully accomplished.
The new second track built
through the narrow Eagle River
Canon has cost more than $780,
900 per mile to construct. but the
relief afforded by this great i'm
provement. by which trains can
be easily operated over the steep
grade on the west side OF Ten
nesse Pass, will be worth many
times the cost of construction.
In the FIVE miles OF canon work
there are three tunnels with a
total length of 800 feet. being
100, 300 and 400 feet respectively
There are FIVE steel bridges, with
reinforced concrete floor slabs,
with ballast under the track of a
fine quality of crushed rock. The
steel girders are probably the
heaviest ever used in bridge con
siruction. The track is laid with
new S5-lbs.-to-the yard steel.
rolled by the Colorado Fuel &
Iron Co. at their Pueblo plant,
with tie plates and entirely new
track material throughout. The
new line. which is used for the
eastbound. or uphill draw. reduces
the grade from 3 per cent 10 %
par cent, and the curvature is also
greatly lessened.
The enormous outlay { consider
ing the length OF new track was
necessitated by the constantly in
creasing business. both freight and
passenger, of the Rio Grande road.
and the tremendous increase IN
volume anticipated with the COM
pleiion OF the Western Pacific d
year hence.
A peculiarity OF location, and
one not met with elsewhere, is the
building of the tracks on each side
of the Eagle River Between the
high walls OF the narrow canon
there is just room enough for the
two tracks and the rushing river.
From one end OF the canon to
the other and on both sides. min
ing for gold. silver and lead is be-
ing carried on extensively. Shaft
houses and ore bins are perched
high up on the narrow ledges, and
the wonder is they do not slide
into the river far below. There is
not another canon IN the Rocky
Mountains traversed by railroad
where mining operations can be
seen as in this, the Eagle River
Canon.

The newspaper., 1907-11-29

During the past week the matter
of pulling the Hubbard Creek
road has been brought very prom
inently before the people by
visit from the Forest Reserve
Superintendent. who visited the
country 1t is generally known the
government has offered to con-
tribute 81, 500 toward building
stretch OF road which will reach
near Bowie. Three miles OF road
must be built in addition to con
meet with the existing road. AL
ready the people up there as well
as cattle men who will be benefited
have subscribed quite literally to
secure the construction OF the road.
However there is still some
doubt of its construction. and The
NEWSPAPER feels like making
some statements of advantages
that will come to all OF US II the
enterprise is completed.
To begin with i, will open up
large farming district and place 1t
in communion with this place II
will result in the settlement OF
large district splendidly adapted
to raising grain and hay, and these
are needed bv our people.
But over and above all iere are
millions OF ieet OF excellent timber
which the government Is striving
TO save from waste. Already 1t IS
said ,ha, If the road is built two
fine box mills will be put in. and
competent fruit men figure that
six cents will be saved on each
apple box and three cents on each
peach box. IL is easy To compute
what this means to the North
Fork. We will Certainly have
trouble to get boxes the coming
year IT we have full crop. We
have lost heavily once by reason
OF non-arrival OF boxes from the
coast and it would seem TO be the
work OF the hour to provide
home supply OF this necessity.
There is still another point in
this box matter to be considered
1t is figured that twill be easier
and better to prepare box timber
in the woods and transport it in
bulk to this place for manu-
iacture. This would furnish steady
employment to many persons
and thus add to the general pros
perity. Considering the vast
number of boxes used here the
item alone is worth much more
than the entire road will cost.
Then there is great demand
