THE PACT0LUS ROAD
Enough Money Promised to
Build the Line to Top Of
Walling Hill

r. A. Hall, promoter of the Pactolus
road, was in the city Saturday, having
come over from the camp on Beaver
creek. Mr.. Hall had just returned from
an extended stay in Nebraska, Iowa and
Illinois, where he had been financing
the project. He has large amount of
money pledged and is now in position
to push construction work. He has
enough money promised to build about
six miles of the road from Pactolus,
which will place the line at the top of
Walling hill
Work of grading was resumed about
four weeks ago and fine showing is
being made as the ground now is most
ly loose dirt and very little blasting
of rock has to be done. Three miles of
ties are cut and enoughIbridge timbers
ready for six miles.of the road. Mr..
Hall returned to the east Monday and
will be back in about thirty days. The
six miles of road will then be rushed to
completion and in order to push work
speedily the force will be increased.
With six miles of the line built, the
company will commence to receive rev.
enues from the project as it will bring
the road close to shipping mines.
This road will run through a richly
mineralized section in northern and
central Gilpin county, in close proximity
to Perigo, Gold Dirt, Gilpin, Wide
Awake, Apex and TwelvelMile, which
points are without railroad transporta-
ton. 1t will not only benefit these out
lying districts but will also,be stimulus
to every mine and mill in the entire
county, as it will in connection with
the Moffat road deliver coal, merchan-
disc, machinery, mining ;props to the
principal camps without having to trans
fer from standard guage fears at Den
yer and another transfer to wagons and
tram cars at Black Hawk which is now
necessary. 1t will hand the high grade
ore direct from the mines to the Denver
smelters without long wagon haul,
which always means waste. 1t will put
every part of the county on practically
the same freight basis and will also fur
nish standard guage passenger service
with Denver and the outside world.
The home people are interested in the
property and are giving their financial
support as far as their means afford.

Old Town Will Build Mill.

Manager George X. Kimball left for
Pittsburg last Saturday morning. A
meeting of the Old Town Mining Co. will
be held there this week for the purpose of
providing funds to build mill at the
Newhouse tunnel dump. Mr.. Kimball
states that such plan has been under
consideration for some time but has
been held until the connection of the
tunnel and the suface workings of the
mine by the Hot Time lateral should be
completed. This having now been done
and electrical equipment of the lateral
and shaft is now completed also. The
lower levels have been run and slopes
opened for long sustained period of
ore extraction. The mine is now in a
situation to demand every possible
facility and economy to handle and
treat an immense output and the need
of the mill becomes urgent.
1t is proposed to build at the dump
where the ore will be dumped directly
from the tunnel cars and thus save at
least two transfers and considerable
transportation charge. The process will
be similar to that developed in the
treatment of the ore in the past few
years. 1t will be automatic and labor
saving in every possible manner, will
be the most perfect plant in the dis
trict. The original capacity will be loo
tons with arrangements for addition of
other units as needed.
The Old Town has been for years the
biggest producer of the Gilpin and
Clear Creek district. Under the new
condition it will easily surpass its former
record and maintain it's supremacy fol
long time to come.-Idaho Springs
Gazette.

Business Growing
Still They Come! For Sage
Bush Tonic Instead
of Rum.

The Sage Brush Tonic company have
recently installed a steam heating plant
in their big factory building On west
Rail street, and the engine furnace and
boiler are utilized in supplying the
steam for the same. Every week wit
nesses the introduction Of some labor
saving device in the factory or sees the
perfecting of some method for the say
ing Of time in the manufacture Of Sage
Brush tonic and shampoo.
One or two more carloads of bottles
will be necessary to carry on the busi-
ness for the winter judging from the
sales of the fall.
Hitherto the business of the company
has demanded large expenditures Of
capital stock but these have been more
than justified by the phenomenal success
attained in perfecting manufacturing
plant that can turn out the finished pro
duct with the least expenditure of labor
and in constantly increasing quantities,
and by building up sales system that
disposes of the goods as fast or faster
than they can be manufactured.
Now that steady stream of income
will be pouring in from the work Of the
field agents, gradual expansion Of
business win result that will place the
enterprise on a dividend-paying basis
and send the stock Of the company soar
ing above the clouds.
But the present success has not been
won without indefatigable labor, pro
fessional skill and business acumen.
The slogan of the company, Did you
ever see bald headed Indian" has
proved to be the cleverest stroke of ad-
vertising the business world has wit
messed in many year

BUyINESS COLLEGE COMING
Well Known Educator Plans a Stay
in ShOshOne.

Prof. c. A. Lewis, an old friend of
the Journal editors. was in Shoshone
Saturday, looking over the field with a
view to establishing short term busi-
ness course this winter. He has de-
voted a life time to teaching along bus
mess lines. and has developed a system
Of instruction and lectures that ac-
.complish results in a marvelously short
time. Mr.. Lewis is at present at Back
foot. where he has the commendation
Of Rev. C. A. Edwards, formerly of
Shoshone. and of the school board, which
has employed him to teach commercial
law and kindaed branches in the high
school. He and his wife have been
travelling through the west for years,
doing this class of work, with consider
able profit and conspicuous success.
Prof. Lewis expects to come TO Sho-
shone about the first of January, if
sufficient class can be secured, and viii
be here for two months. Some Of his
graduates of recent years are holding
the most responsible book keeping po-
sitions in the west. and his system Of
instruction is such that any one who
cares to learn can get more in his school
in two months than other places in
year or more.
The school board has offered to help
in whatever way it is possible. to get
some of this invaluable instruction in
the public schools.

RlCHFIELD STAYS DIRK"
People Make Winning Fight Against
Saloon License.

At their meeting Saturday, the coun-
u commissioners failed to either grant
or refuse the liquor license application
Of Faley & Black, at Richfe,d, FOR the
reason that the application was with
drawn before it came to a vote.
A remonstrance signed BY a large
majority of the people Of the district,
was brought down by the people,
against the granting Of the license.
a petition had been circulated asking
that the license be granted. and it had
some signers. But energestice work
or the part Of the leading citizens Of
the town made it so apparent TO the
commissioners that the majority Of the
public sentiment was against the saloon,
that rather than be turned down the
applicants withdrew without a vote
Headed By the Idaho Irrigation com
pany with a subscription Of $50, the
citizens offered to make up to the
school district the $3.50 that the dis
trict would get if the license were
granted. and would lose if it were re-
fused. This took away all the financial
argument in favor of the saloon as a
revenue producer, and Riehfeld viii
continue dry at present The old Sd
loon license expired some weeks ago,
since which time there has been no
liquor sold in the town.
Richfield is the second town in the
county to be without saloons, under the
discretionary power vested in the COM
missioners by the last legislature.

"SCOTTY" ALMOST BUTCHERED
Stranger Slices Him Up and Makes
his Escape.

James R. Taylor, known as Scotty,
was attacked BY a stranger in the Sen
ate saloon. one O'Clock Saturday morn
ing. and his throat was cut from ear
to ear.
It seems there had been trouble be-
tween the men earlier in the night in
which blows were exchanged and Scotty
had come out best man, and his an
tagonist had threatened to kill him.
After spending some time in another
saloon the stranger came back to the
Senate ard as Scotty was approaching
the bar he slashed his throat with a
razor, just above the Adams apple,
severing the right external vein, and
both anterior jugular veins, and two
small arteries.
Medical assistance was rendered at
once and DR.. Dill took charge Of the
case and the wounded man was later
taken to the Dill hospital. At several
stages of the operation severe vomit-
ing interfered seriously with the deli
cate work and threatened dire conse-
quences.
Monday. small artery gave way and
internal hemorrhage resulted: but that
was soon checked,
In the confusion arising at the mo-
ment of the crime the assassin escaped
and no clue was left as to his line of
escape.
Deputy Sheriff Murry took the first
train for Pocatello, and having seen the
man in a controversy with Scotty earl
Ter in the evening he was able TO give
a fair description Of him 20 the officers
of the law at Pocatello-
Not finding his man there, Mr.
Murray took a return train for ShO-
shone. and it turned out that the per
son he was after was on q freight train
that took a siding to let the west
bound passenger pass.
The freiget had scarcely stopped at
Pocatello when the officers who were
on the lookout nabbed their man and
reported the catch to Deputy Murray
and Sheriff Jones.
On fuller investigation. however, the
subject caught at Poeatelto proved to
be another man and the assassin is still
at large.

John McFall and Don Burnside went
to Salt Lake, last week. with the Idaho
University football team, to see the big
annual game with the Utah University.
M sher side scored. though the advan-
tage was practically all the time with
the Idaho team. which kept the ball
IN the Utah territory almost every min
ute of the game. Several times the
Idaho players got within striking dis
tance of the goal but the ball was too
wet and slippory to kick successfully
and all their attempts failed. The
game was played on snow covered
field. 20 inches of snow having fallen
there Part of this was taken off. but
stin it was pretty wintry football.
