Board of Control Active.

1t is significant that the board of
control has been more than usually
active since the reports of the condi-
lions at the prison have been given
circulation Mr.. John I. Hamilton, of
Cedar Rapids, one of the members of
the board, was here today in consult
alton with Warden Sanders, and look
ing into the situation. He had little
to say on the subject of the prison
management and appeared satisfied
with the present conditions He is re-
ported to have stated to a citizen,
with waom he conyersed on the sub
ject, that the only trouble with San
ders is that he is a young mar and
enthusiastic in his plans, and possibly
has overstepped the line in some mat
ters: but in his opinion Sanders is an
excellent man for the place, and, with
experience, will make an ideal warden.
Not Training Place for Wardens.
Some critics here take the position
however. that the peaitentiary is not
a place to train men to be wardens.
but one where a man already fully
equipped should be employed. They
declare thew cannot understand the
motive of the board in dismissing a
tried and capable man like Warden
Jones for an enthus tic youngster
who is yet to learn how to be prac-
tical head of one of the most important
state penal institutions of he country.
Since the report in the Hawk-Eye.
I concerning an investigation by the leg
| islature, that has been topic OF much
discussion. and there are none here
| who do not look forward with interest
/ to such action by the general as.
/ sembly 1t is not thought however.
that an investigation now will disclose
| such a condition Of things as is re-
ported to have existed at the time the
situation was first given publicity.
i The rumor concerning the POSSIBLE
ity of the appointment of former
Warden n. y. Jones to membership
on the state board of control to sue
coed Cownie, has aroused much favor
able comment The people Of Fort
Madison would welcome such a recog
milton of the worth Of their fellow
citizen. There is a great regard here
for Mr. Jones and his elevation Il
a membership in the board OF contro
will be very popular action by Gov
ernor Carroll.

nation. Such . road In tho very ma
|ture Of things must b bulk sooner or
later, and the sooner the better. 1t
has already been too long delayed and
Is an unfortunate commentary upon
the enterprise. or. rather, the lack of
1t, on the part of our people. The Roy
al Gorge, as we have often stated, is
one OF the scenic masterpieces Of AM
erica and should be made easily ac-
cessible to all mankind
The contemplated road should be
built at tho Joint expense OF the peo-
pie of Canon City and of Fremont
county and should be open at all
times without money and without
price to the citizens OF Colorado, of
the United States and OF the world at
large. Four or FIVE thousand dollars
could not possibly be invested to bet
ter advantage than in building such
roadway as we have endeavored to
describe. and we hope, the agitation
for 1t will not cease until the ambi-
tions OF Its friends have been realized.
1t does not matter how many electric
railways there are to the top OF the
Royal Gorge, they will not in the least
destroy the value and the necessity for
carriage and automobile road that
will be open to the public at all
times
Colorado Springs years ago saw the
advantage of utillz ng her scenic
beauties as an agency in attracting
tourists. and, that II was good in
vestment, goes withc Ut saying. Canon
City is not a whit behind Colorado
Springs so far as mountain scenery
In concerned and the only reason we
do not get as many visitors here is
because we did not as soon begin to
develop our resources A driveway to
the top of the Royal Gorge would in
our opinion, be hardly less attractive
to tourists than the cog road to the
summit of Pixies Peak certainly the
scene would be no ,ess magnificent
There is hardly anything In the way
OF material enterprise that would
contribute more to the prosperity of
this city and to the pleasure of its
Inhabitants than good road to the
top OF the Royal Gorge. If the proper
enterprise and cooperation in the
matter as shown is given it can be
| made an actuality.
