Supplementary Road To
Skyline Drive Proposed
CouA Be Buht At Small Cost aaA Wosdd Be Anothea
Link In System Of Scenac Roadways That
Pronaases to Make Canon CAy Famous

A recent proposition. and one that
Is meeting with much public favor, re-
hates to the construction Of a scenic
driveway along the eastern slope of
the hogback and around the site of
the contemplated waterworks reser-
voir, a quarter of a mile or SO north
of Alpine Terrace" Such . road
way could easily be constructed at
small cost and would be one of ex-
ceeding beauty.
According to the plans of those at
the head OF the movement for Its crea-
ton 1t would begin q the point where
the Skyline road turns abruptly to
the southwark. eighty or a hundred
feet above the level OF Reynolds
Heights and would proceed northward
along 4 shelf OF the hogback At an
easy gradient for about three quar-
ers OF q mile. thence along the north
end OF the reservoir basin to a success
sion of small pigbacks, crossing on
the waterworks dam between the first
and second OF the ridges. thence down
a gradual incline to the street level.
completing two thirds of an ellipse of
perhaps 500 yards width.
The road would proceed along the
hogback at the base of a stratum Of
soft shale fitting at an angle OF some
thing like 90 degrees thereby preclud-
ing the possibility OF rock falling in
to the roadway as the result of dis
integratiou, or from other causes. No
blasting or heavy nlls would be re-
quired, indeed, the building of such
n road would be a very simple and in
expensive matter. II could all be

SERVICE RULES
FOR PRISON OFFICIALS
Commsaon Has Been Appointed by The Governor Under
theIaw Passed BY the Last General Assembly and
Hh Expected That They WM Meet Shortly
to Draft Regulations

Although the civil service law en-
acted by the last general assembly
is as yet operative only 80 far as the
selection OF the commission to execute
It Is concerned. it will soon be in
voked to govern the appointments to
official position at the four penal in
stitutions of the state, to which alone
its provisions are applicable.
The commission consists of three
men, all lawyers and all residents Of
Denver. and with Mr.. Winter. the Sc
cretary. constitute the judicial and
executive powers which are to carry
the statute into effect. Since its Sc
lection by the governor several
months ago the commission has been
very busy inquiring into the workings
Of the civil service laws of other states
and of the federal government. As
result of its investigations a set of
rules and regulations have been adopt
cd and upon them will be predicated
the action OF the commission in de-
termining the fitness Of candidates for
appointment to Office.
What the requirements of candi-
dates for the several classes of posi-
ton will be has not yet been made
public but in addition to moral charac-
ter, It is understood there will be ply
steal and mental demands, the form
er more or less rigid, the latter en-
bracing an examination in the pri-
mary branches of a common school

The rules which candidates for po-
sition will be subjected will be sub
stantially the same as those in force
In the federal civil service.

OF the secretary of the board. although

The civil service law was not made
applicable to the eleemosynary and
charitable institutions Of the state.
that feature being stricken from the
bill on account of the hostility Of leg
islators opposed to its passage.
The only institutions falling within
its purview are the penitentiary, the
reformatory at Buena vsita, the. in
dustrial school for boys at Golden and
the Industrial school for girls at Dem
yer. In all something like two hun
dred salaried positions will be sub
ject to the civil service rules, of which
between sixty and seventy are at the
penitentiary.
civil service based upon indus
trial merit has proven highly success
full In those states where it has been
tried, and will NO doubt be found
equally effacacious in Colorado. There
are some objections in the public
mind against a civil service law that
retains men in Office for long periods
Of time, but, on the other hand. It
means greater economy and efficiency
by taking away political influence and
requiring the candidate for position
and the Office holder to rely uDaA IN
dividual merit, rather than upon par
ty pull. r'@~ --*
The civil service law here will be
an incentive for men to At themselves
for the work they would undertake by
making a study of the prospective d1-
ties. Such men would greatly in
crease the efficiency OF the service
and would contribute to the economy
Of penal administration. Wherever
civil sersice, Law has been put into
effect it has raised the standard Of
government by increasing the useful
ness and value of its employees.

Such 4 road would be a link in a
boulevard system of the utmost value
to the city and would add to its pop
ularity as a resort community.
The proposed roadway, under the
lea OF the hogback, would be shaded
by the crest Of the hill above it at 8
O'Clock every afternoon and during the
summer months would be very popu-
lar with pleasure seekers.
. The drive around the reservoir, or
lake. perhaps. as it should be called.
would Ihcrease the a,tractiveness of
the scene. which would be Of sxcep-
rional variety and beauty. The lake
will cover an area Of approximately
ten acres Of land and the water will
have Maximum depth Of something
like . Or y fsst. --..z-z.
The city owns about seven acres
above the upper. or western. side of
the reservoir basin. which will be
terraced and converted into a public
park. Such a parry will serve as a
protection to the reservoir, and, at
same time, afford the public An un-
eQualled picnic and pleasure resort,
provided the road is built, otherwise
1t will be inaccessible to the major
