RIO oRANDE coNsoLIDATEs

A consolidation of the various
railway lines connected with the
original Denver aud Rio Grande,
has been effected and new corp
oration formed whereby these roads
are merged into one concern. The
new corporation is capitalized at
eighty-eight million dollars and is
devided into shares of one hundred
dollars zach. The Goulds are in
the deal but il is not known wheth-
er they retain the control or not.
There is no doubt but that the near
future will see the proposed i'm
provement commenced and the ex-
tending of the Pacific line tn the
coast. The entire nystem will be
standard gung,d and it is reported
that work has already commenced
in widening the track from Ourny
to Montrose, whici' will enable the
mines of the San Juan section to
ship through to Pueblo or Salida
without transfer around by Grand
Junction. The standardizing Of
the tracks from Crested Butte over
Marshall Pass and Cero hill will
doubtless be usxt in order, which
may begiu before the year is out
1t is not necessary to enlarge upon
the fact that great benefits will
come to this portion OF TIE state,
when the entire shipping produc.
tion may be loaded on the cars an /
billed out direct to the consumer
without transfer and delivered in
the same car, into which it was
originally loaded, withou delay or
additional cost of handling. The
coal and metal mines, as also the
cattle and hay shipper, will take
advantage of the proposed new and
important system. Although the
good time looked for has been q
long time on the way it does not
appear to be far distant low.

explicitly for the purpose of select
ing and reserving such land rs is
con sidered to contain valuable de-
posites of coal. These we under
stand are to be wholly withdrawn
from entry for the present at least
1t is thought to be the policy of
the administration to exempt, fin
ally, all coal lands from sale, and
place the leasing system on all of
the same. by which the government
will forever hold the titles of all
remaining coal fields belonging to
it. In this manner perpetual leases
may be given of extensive areas to
large concerns WHO will mine the
coal and pay the government n
royalty, after which, the consumer
will be required to pay whatever
price may he' put upon the coal by
the leasers, unless the government
should stipulate the Ii nit I'll II
when the lease is granted which
woull be the only protection left
left to the dear public, should the
mine operator be disposed to doub-
lie prices when he wns left without
competition. The element Of graft
must be eliminated from the man
agem-nt of public or governmental
affairs, before any leasing Of cnal or
any other public lands can be Of
any possible benefit to the common
people. Prom the present stand
point it is hard to predict when this
shall be, but, it can only come with
the publication of the political
arena, by the election of honorable
men to fill Offices of public trust
and make laws and see that they
are obeyrd by the rich or poor. the
large corporation or the smallest
business.

Count Zeppelin the greatest AIR.
ship inventor Of modern times,
came to grief the other day, after
having made the longest flight ever
accomplished in the world. 1t mp
pears that the ship was anchored
near the ground AMI n sudden gale
sprang up and tore the big machine
from its moorings and before it
could be lifted from the ground it
was laslied around among the trees
and completely destroyed. II would
seem that these air vessels must
have larbors in the air. just the
same as ocean vessels in the sen, or
the will be destroyed, rs are many
monsters of the deep, when mighty
wind currents strike them.
Count Zeppelin was n veteran of
our late war pnd began his expert
ments with aeronaughts while in
the service: having made his first
ascent in balloon captured from
Confederate army at the battle of
Fredericksburg. He has been in
Germany for a number of years,
and his mammouth air ship has
broken all records for long distance
and completeness of management
while in the air. He was away at
the time of the accident and when
lie afterward saw the wreck, was
overcome in grief, rs also was his
daughter. who on hearing of it said
it would kill her father, ms he was
SO completely wrapped with his
invention. 1t is said the govern

MINING NEWS OF
0UNNlSON COUNTY

1t is now two years since Ely,
Nevada became prominent as n
copper ore mining section. Dur-
ing this period the mcst extensive
copper mine operating plant in the
world has been installed and the
mine, mill and smelter is now in
commission and turning out the
refined copper. The vein is said to
be two hundred feet in thickness
and the Ore is dug by means of
steam shovels and loaded by these
into railway cars and run to the
smelter, some distance away into a
large valley which is owned by
the company. Twenty cars con-
stitute train load and each car
holds fifty tons of ore. The rail-
way tracks are laid entirely on ore

and n depth OF twenty feet is ex-
cavated above the tracks by the
steam shovels. Holes from fifty 10
seventy-fv feet are put into the
rock aad thousand tons of ore
are broken in a single round. 1t
is estimated that thirty million tous
of this ore is now in sight and it
is being mined, hauled and treated
for less than dollar per ton. An
experimental mill WAS put up by
the company in order to determine
the process required to handle the
ore and also the values and fully
explore the extent Of the deposite.

EXPLOSION VICTIM IDENTIFIED
Pitkin Mirer

Pitkin Mirer
It was not until Tuesday that
Mrs. Smith, who lives in Ohio City
found out that her son Henry, was
one of the men killed at the Sar-
gent explosion on the morning OF
June 10Th. For some time she had
been trying to trace him, and from
Kessler Morris she learned that
her son was in Snlida the evening
of June lS. telling Morris that he
was going out that night. On not
having heard from her boy for so
long time, she was more convinc-
ed than ever that he was one of the
unfortunate victims.
She persuaded her eldest son,
Jim, to 20 to Sargent aud deter
mine the truth. Accordingly he
and Tom Noble went over and dug
up the remains which had been
buried with the other two men, and
at the first glance it was discover
ed that the mothers worst fears
had proven correct.
Smith was about l6 years of age
and had lived with his mother at
Ohio City for about yeac. He
went to Pueblo last May and was
evidently on his way home when
hs was 80 suddenly sent into eter-
nifty. He was killed by the concus-
sion, as there was not mark found
on him,

The new Hearst Independent
party will doubtless cut some ice
in the coming election, as it has
apparently absorbed the populist
and socialist elements and has in
corporated both planks in the new
platform adopted by the Independ-
ants. 1t is thought that this move
will ,ut n big hole in the Bryan
ranks from the fact that the Demo
cratic party have been counting on
the entire vote of the two parties
taken over by the Hearst move
ment.

An effort is being made to create
mining excitement over in Gar
field county, twelve miles above
New Castle. Some small veins have
been found in the granite which
carry gold values. and there is now
quite rush on. in locating claims
with n view of making mining
camp. 1t is not thought that any
thing permanent will be opened up
MS the veins appear small on the
surface and are likely only eashes,
filed with n secondary deposite
caused from erosion of country
rock which may carry n little gold.
There is said to be big crowd on
the ground and it will not be long
before the truth is known as to the
merits of the proposition. The
mining public would be only too
glad TO see new gold camp spring
into eXisten 20, mt this time, which
would rival Cripple Greeks wonder

fact that the location is among the
coal measures and no errupiive
masses of rock in the locality. little
faith is placed upon the final out
come of the new camp as an ore
producer.
