dition. Other matters respe citing the
future success Of the company were

in the manufacturing and selling do.
partnIents.
All Of the machinery Of the plant
is running in perfect order and the
capacity of the plant has been found
to be very much In excess Of its esti.
mailed capacity. The company has q
large stock Of cement on hand for
which they have orders on the books
only awaiting the breaking up of the
cold weather for shipment. The
plant is said to be one Of the best
designed and constructed plants In
the country, being so arranged a. to
permit Of indefinite expansion without
any re arrangements Of the present

tion a few months, the result has de.
monstrsted the wisdom Of the uild.

number of the most representative
business and professional men Of the
city Of Denver and OF the state. And
II their attitude At yesterdays meet
ing is any criterion to go by. this
oompany's concrete brand Of cement
will certainly have a splendid "boos.
ter club"
Mention was made Of an "inspired"
article recently published In the
Denver Post, and most bitterly de-
nouncod by the meeting. The article
was considered Ss written solely to
discredit the management with the
stock holders, but II fell short Of Its
purpose, rs evidenced from tho ofYer
OF certain holders to purchase the
stock Of any one who was not satisfied
with his Investment, but not a share
WAS found to be for sale.
The meeting paid the retiring board
high compliment by = unanimous
vote OF thanks for the successful man.
ner In which they had buiit up such
IA magnificent industry In tho face OF
commercial panic. aud established
their brand Of osmeut on the market
In the few months that they had
becu In operation.
