Electricity for All.

"A GlenwoOd dispatch to the Dem
yer Republican of last Sunday re-
ports the formal opening of the Sho-
shone power plant as follows:
While nearly 800 people stood in u
drenching rain Lieutenant Governor
Fitzgarrald at II clock today
touched the electric button which
raised the headgate and permitted
$50 cubic feet of water II second to
pass through the tunnel leading to
the power house of the Central. Colo
RADIO Power company at Shoshone.
AS the immense gates Were raised n
cheer was sent up by the crowd Of
people who had gone from Grand
Junction, LeadvilIe, Aspen, Glen
wood and other points to take part
in the formal opening of the big
plant recently completed and from
which electricity has been sent along
the wires to LeadvilIe and other min
ing camps in the vicinity of the Cloud
City.
"I.ieutenant Governor Fitzgarrald
came as the official representative of
Colorado to attend the opening and
to him was given the honor of send
ing for the first time the full capacity
of water through the big canal, which
is 1900 feet in length with width
/ of II feet and height of IL feet. AS he
pushed the electric button the water
rushed through the wide open head
gate and started on its journey thro'
the mountain tunnel to the power
plant nearly = l-2 miles below"
In due time electricity from the
great enterprise will be sent to Meek

Of men gathered in the square and ct the
stores discussing the outcome. Regard
less OF their own preference, they agreed
that nothing so corrupt as the open pur-
chase OF the Slab City vote had ever been
perpetrated before, and IL another caucus
had been held that evening it would have
been a walkover for Reynolds and the
Spencer ticket.
WiIkie himself, still furious, came
down town after supper and freely ex-
pressed his views. He threatened to
thrash Squire Edwards or Joe English
on sight, and was scarcely less bitter
toward all the Granger leaders, not ex-
cepting Jed Alden, whose canvass for rep
resentative, he declared, had been
knocked into q cooked hat by his associs-

peated his purpose OF carrying the matter
to the convention for settlement.

GENIUS IN A PLIGHT

'I can't breakfast on a sonnet" sighed the author, dine on an ode, and sup on a love song. hence the lean and hungry look is mine. while over an empty table l ring the break fast bell to fool the neighbors: and as there is no chance to discover any more north poles. I am at a loss as to what to do to gain the limelight. I thought I'd create sensation by burning my books in the public square. but people who had read some of them came forward. patted me on the back, and said I had done a deed which benefited humanity As Ylive for the most part on air.

THE MIDDLE AGED MAN.
Something Said to Him by the Dentist
 Sets Him Thinking.

My dentist tells me" said the mid dle aged man, that my teeth will last as long as do: and when he said that to me I was at first pleased. because then it seemed to mean simply that still had pretty good teeth. good for long time yet, and thought that some day I would say to him, sort of half jokingly:
 Doctor, you tell me my teeth will last as long as I will-abOut how long do you think my teeth will last?'
 Tn that way, you see, by indirection I am going to get a line on how much longer he thought I was likely to live. and as l thought that over I smiled to myself thinking that was a pretty bright idea, but do you know that when I came to think it over again didn't ask him finally? I didn't.
 Because I think he knows. l have been going. to him now for years and he knows my teeth through and through. He knows by them how old l am and he knows their rate of wear exactly and how much longer they will last and he could tell me how much longer I will last, But haven't asked him because I don't want to know, I don't want to know at all
 AS a matter of fact I think that when we come to my time of life we don't much fancy dwelling on that: though there are times when it seems to intrude itself when We realize that the years ahead of us are not so many as-well. as they were some years ago, when life seemed to us interminable. Any actuary could tell us what our expectation of life may be at the pres ent moment.
 We expect. of course. that We are going to live longer. to be the eXcep- ton, but even if we should so prove We can count the years still coming to us without using many figures. We are getting to where we can see the end if we look that way. and I can't say that I have any fear of it. but I certainly don't find any pleasure in contemplating it; I'd rather stay.
 50 I haven't asked the dentist be- cause I don't want tn know. The thought of it does drift in on me once in a while, but when it does I shunt it off and get busy and keep plugging and take a cheerful view.
 Pm glad my teeth are good, any how

are hauled. and it is necessary that the construction. The other roads of the valley will not of necessity be constructed of similar material. Just what is best for the Central avenue district. for instance, has not yet been decided
 Eventually the territorial highway will run down through the valley. on Grand avenue to Tempe and Mesa. and for this reason the territory will cooperate and derive as much in struction from the model road as pos sibIe.
 In regard to the model road. Dr. Foss said yesterday: ITO get a ton of produce to the market in this coun- try costs approximately 2s cents In France. Belgium and Holland it costs from to g cents. The difference in cost represents the difference in the excellence of the roads in this and the foreign countries. This country is losing a billion dollars a year on &C., count of its poor roads. Farmers are not able to get their produce to mar ket when it will realize the highest prices. It is possible to corner the market in the grain states on account of poor roads and the farmer Is the loser. because the rise in prices oc- CUTS at a time when he cannot haul his grain to the elevators.
 Tn the Glendale country. the only alluvial soil in the valley. the earth is so rich that the heavy loads make deep ruts in the roads, and grind the earth to dust. This creates a wear and tear on the teams and causes loss and delay to the farmer. Good roads will add an increased valuation to the land and will bring pleasure and com fort to the farmer and resident on account of the freedom from dust"
 Engineer Sherwood stated that it was his observation that a system of good roads invariably raised the price of the adjoining land from s10 to s100 an acre. This has been the result wherever a community has constructed a system of first-class roads.

 A very remarkable point about the experiment was that the longer the time between tke trials the better was the hens memory. Whe1 the experi- ments were made cpnsecutive!y it took them six times to learn that the rice was not worth touching. but when the experiments were at intervals of an hour they learned the lesson at the third try. thus showing not only that they had memories. but that they thought the matter over in the in- tervals.-Chicago Journal
