THE ELECTRIC ROADS
MEAN MUCH TO STATE

IN view of the fact that work soon
starts on the electric railway in this
city and valley. the following edi-
torial from the Denver Republican is
of peculiar local interest:
This is an age of electric railroad
building to meet the demands of traf-
fic not met by the ordinary steam
roads; and Colorado is in a position
TO take advantage OF the disposition
to embark upon ventures of that
kind. for there are numerous locali-
ties where steam railroad construc-
tion Is for the present impracticablc
il is reported that an electric line
will soon be built to supply the traf-
fic needs of that part of the state
which lies in Garfield. Rio Blanca
and Routt counties not provided for
by the Denver & Rio Grande and
Midland on the south and the Mof-
fat road on the north. The region
more especially in view is the valley
of the White river. which has no rail
road of any kind at present.
II would seem that projects of this
kind would secure ample traffic to
justify their construction. The
amount of capital invested is small in
comparison with that ordinarily
placed in steam railroad, and the
expense of operating also is small
Hence road of the kind contemplat-
ed can be built and maintained at an
expense which would be wholly in
adequate If used for IA steam railroad.
Localities but sparSely settled can
thus be supplied with traffic facilities
now greatly needed. and the develop
ment of the country resulting from
such investments will more than com
pensate for any risk incurred,

TAKES IN
LOCAL PLANT

The Grand junction Sugar
factory is to become II part of the
property of n gigantic sugar beet
interest merger, in which merger
Werner ". Reed who is so largely
interested in Grand Junction
and the Grand valley, is to be
one of the leading figures.
The amalgamation of the
eastern and western sugar inter-
ests has been accomplished by
Colorado capitalists who, negot-
iating with Ii. II. Howell, Son
and company, of New York, have
closed IL deal which means the
immediate investment of $780,
900 in Colorado and Arizona
lands.
The deal involves the merging of
the Western Sugar and Land COM
pany and the Southwestern Sugar
and Land company. the one owning
the beet sugar factory and vast
acreage at Grand Junction and other
recently Incorporated by local men
at Phoenix, AriZ
The Reed d-Mckinnie-Davie syndi-
cate figures conspicuously in the big
merger. j. h. McKinnie, 1.-The father
OF the beet sugar industry in Colo
rado, and r. p. Davie closed the
deal with the HowelIs in New York.
In discussing the great deal a dis
patch to the Denver papers from
Colorado Springs says in part:
The Howells represent large cane
sugar interests and are accounted a
power in sugar circles second only to
the sugar trust as controlled by the
Havemeyer interests. Werner Y. Reed.
the multimillionaire of this city, is
heavily Interested in the new project
through his holdings in the Grand
valley sugar factory.
Mckinnie and Davie have also clos
ed another deal, involving the sale of
1000 acres of swamp sugar land in
Florida to Kansas City capitalists for
a price approximating 100000. The
local men recently extended their op-
erations to Florida and Arizona and
from present Indications it would ap-
pear that Colorado capital is to be-
come most potent factor in the
sugar trade of this country.
The United States Sugar and Land
company of which Charles NJ Mac
Neil is president. today declared a
dividend ON its preferred stock. The
dividend amounts to $15O,0O0 and is
payable February /, 1909.

Useful. PATENT
Is Boltless RaiIjoint Invented
by Rev. Mr.. Halter
man and Son.

What promises to be one of the
most useful devices ever invented
and patented is a ,boltless rail-joint
for railways. The device was in
vented by the Rev. A. C. Halterman
and son. Stein. of Buckhannon, who
had learned that a leading railroad
company had offered a large sum of
money for such an invention to take
the place of the present method of
ljointing rails, which is expensive and
troublesome. An Inspection of the
device leads to the ready conclusion
that they Lave solved the problem.
Dr. Charles w. Halterman. OF this
city. is brother of the Rev. A. C.
iHalterman and is interested in the
patent. He has a model at his Of
fee here, which he gladly shows all
who are interested.

tened one end to a cross bar near the
top of his cell. The other occupants
OF the room soon learned what Bar

awake the most of the time by his
rawlings. and they tried TO restrain him
from doing himself any harm. but he
proceeded with the arrangements for
his self-execution without heed to
their remonstrances. The other men
were unable to reach keenan, be-
cause of the bars of the cell. They
raised an alarm which attracted a
policeman of the night force. who
went inside. arrested Keenap.s sui
