Gilpin observer., 1909-10-21

The daily press is indulging in its
annual spasm over the announcement
of the deficit in the operation of the
postoffice department. AS the amount
Of expenses over earnings is sec, ,000,-
O0O-several millions greater than
ever before-the spasm Is relatively
more severe. Nothing is said about
the deficit OF $100,000,O 900 in the war
department, or the $115, 900 in the
navy, or the 100000, 900 spent in
pensions. While the postoffice de-
partment is not model OF econo-
mic management compared to that Of
almost any large corporation or firm.
yet it is free from scandals, and the
alleged deficit" is in reality ficti-
tious. II all the other departments
paid postage on their mail matter the
annual loss" would be insignificant,
and in any event, the mail service
Is the one government branch which
Is OF most immediate and personal
service to the people, and whatever
the loss, real or apparent, the ser.
vice should be steadily enlarged and
improved and the rate on letters re-
duced to one cent.-H. Fl. Windsor
in November Popular Mechanics.
Gilpin observer., 1909-10-21

The register at the penitentiary
shows that twenty convicts have been
received there since the beginning of
ably in excess of the usual rate of
arrivals and indicates that the courts
of the state are all busy with the
criminal calendar. The number of
prisoners on the rolls this afternoon
is seven hundred and thirty-one. The
total number recorded at the peniten-
tiary here is now seven thousand
five hundred and eighty-four.-Canon
City Record.
Gilpin observer., 1909-10-21

Statistics show that during the past
20 years the price of horse flesh has
advanced from 80 to 40 per cent and
that horses have been steadily in
creasing in number. 1t has often ben
said that the trolley cars and auto
mobiles are displacing the horse and
that the introduction of other horse
leading beast of burden worthless.
But this claim is not supported by
facts as statistics forcibly show. The
demand for heavy draft horses large
ly exceeds the number raised.
Gilpin observer., 1909-10-21

Only 300 deer were killed in Colo
RADIO this season, according to a
statement issued by State Game and
Fish Commissioner Holland. The nun
ber is small compared to the numer-
Gus hunters in the field. Owing to
the moderate weather conditions the
game did not come down from the
high points in the mountains and
rDam the valleys as is the custom
wher the weather in the hills is
severe. This is the main reason that
the number killed this year was very
shipped into Denver by the carloads,
where this year the carcasses of less
than 200 were received.
Gilpin observer., 1909-10-21

The news of the marriage of Miss
Edith Dickerson, OF Nevadaville and
Oscar Klien. Of Russell Gulcch, which
occurred in Georgetown on the 9th
inst, just reached the friends of this
we'll known and popular couple few
days ago. The announcement came as
quite a surprise to all. but neverthe-
ings by the parents and congratula-
tions by acquaintances. Miss Dicker-
sor. that was. is teaching school at
