do Mr.. Duncan a great injustice. We
know that Mr.. Duncan would like to see
the trouble in Vermont adjusted as soon
as possible, and a recent letter from him
states that he hopes to see the matter

FIR. RICE NEW BISHOP.
Appointed to Burlington Diocese
by the Pope.

Upon the recommendation of the con-
sistorial congregation, the Pope appoint
ed the Rev. DIR. j. j. Rice of st. Peters
church, of Northbridge, Mass, of the
diocese of Springfield, to be bishop of
the Burlington diocese 20 succeed the late
Rt. Rev. j. S. Michaud.
He is but little known in Vermont and
it is not believed that there is a single
priest of the diocese who is acquainted
with him. On good information it may
be said that his name was at the head of
the terna which was presented to Rome
last May. The appointment of a mar
from without the diocese will cause nc
great surprise among the clergy as it
has been generally believed that the
next bishop would not come from Yer.
mont.
Two strong reasons given for the ap.
pointment of Father Rice in unofficial
circles are that he was educated in
Rome, where he lived for several years
and thus is equipped to meet the desires
of Archbishop OConnell, that more oil
the Roman forms of worship be intro
duced, and that he is a learned French
scholar, which was counted as being a
most important requirement because OF
the large number of French speaking
people in the diocese.
Father Rice was ordained sixteen year
ago and is about 40 years of age. He i.
a native of this country and received {
large part of his education here, although
he studied for two years or more il
Rome. Practically all of his service hai
been in the diocese of Springfield anC
his last station has been in Northbridgt
of that diocese. The parish, where h,
has been for the past years, is a small
one and the entire duties have fallen up
on him as it affords no assistant.

Passing of Pioneer

Mr.. John COLON, a brother of our
townsman, Mr.. Charles G ollom, died in
California last Sunday at the ripe age
OF II years. The deceased lived in this
county for a number of years, leaving
here about twenty years ago. He and
his brother were the pioneer mill and
smelling men OF the state and were also
pioneer milling men in Michigan. One
Of the first concentrating mills in the
mining districts OF Colorado was operat
ed near Empire station by him and he
also operated the first smelter in Golden.
One by one the old timers are dropping
by the way side amidst the kindest rec
objections and sympathy Of numerous
friends, old and new. Many of our citi-
zens will remember the deceased as he
mingled with them in the days of the
seventies and eighties while industri-
ously and conscientiously filling his al
lotted sphere in life.

William Broad is Dead

Another OF the old timers of this
county has been called from this life to
the Great Beyond. The news was phon-
ed from Denver on Monday telling of
the death of William Broad that occur
ed at the home OF his daughter, Mrs.
L. N. Chinn, 100, 21st st. about four
o'clock that morning. Mrs Broad was
here at the time and the news of her
husbands demise was not broken to her
until her arrival in Denver. She left
on the early train under the impression
that Mr.. Broad was seriously sick. The
deceased came to this county in 1868
and for about 25 years was engaged in
mining, in the pursuit of which he got
the miners consumption. At the ex-
piration of this time and on the advice
OF his physician, he gave up mining and
engaged in the real estate and insurance
business in this city. His health be-
came impaired to such an extent that
about year ago he practically gave up
active business and has made his home
with his daughter in Denver the great
er part of the time. He was SO years of
age. His funeral took place in Denver,
his remains being buried in thu Fair
mont cemetery. He is survived by a
wife, three sons and two daughters.

Work all Together

There is no reason why Idaho Springs
could not support . wide-awaks or
ganzation devoted to its mining and
commercial interests. In order to be
successful it must be a continuously
active body and to make it such means
some outlay of funds. 1t means that
there must be persistent work by some
one. 1t means that there must be en-
couraging cooperation on the part Of
all. Success is not the result of spas
modic efforts that come up like . morn
ing star and disappears like meteor.
An organization of this character must
be conducted for the general good and
not for any specific purpose, whether
individual or corporate. There are
many ways in which people can assist
assistance. Every mining company
should have report filed with the
company along the lines of blanks
that are prepared and which can be
gotten from the Association. There
is nothing in these reports to which
any one can take exception. The Or
ganzation gets inquiries concering com.
panes AMI if each has its report filed,
the officers could readily get at the
proper person to send an intelligent re-
ply. 1t matters not whether such
company may be close one or a gen.
eral stock proposition, these inquiries
should be answered in an intelligent
manner for no one wants to make
inquiry unless he has some interest
either directly or remotely The OBJ
ject of the association is to assist, to
build up, and to encourage. This can
be done to better degree if the Off
cials of the companies will place the
information within the reach of the
Association SO that it will be available
when the time is propitious. Then
there are individuals who get in
quiries concerning mining properties
or companies If such are not in po-
sition t. answer these on account of
limited time or the absence of the facts
on which to base reply, the Associa-
tion will gladly look up the facts and
answer such inquiries. These may
seem like small matters to an individ-
ual or corporation but they are the
foundation and basis of good work.
These conditions it properly complied
with will gradually bring the desired
results. 1t is urgently requested that
onr people will act promptly in filling
out the blanks sent them while those
who do not have them can be acorn
modated by calling on or writing the
Idaho Springs Commercial Associa-
ton.

HOIler Your Head Off

The committee on arrangements for
the Fourth of July celebration is put
ting its best foot formost in order to
make the affair a great success. In Sc
curing the three gentlemen who consti-
tute this committee the fire department
was fortunate. From Dick White it is
learned that the following towns will
send hose teams: Longmont, Loveland,
Louisville, Lafayette. Silver Plume,
Georgetown, and Central City while the
two last named cities will also send a
Hook and Ladder team each. The first
and second prizes for the Hose team will
be $500 and s10J respectively, while the
the same amount will be awarded for
Ladder teams. In additions to these
there will be a Straigntaway prizs of
800 for the fastest team as shown in
the final races. There will be foot races
Of 100 and 300 yard dashes, open to
members Of competing hose and hook
and ladder companies. The prizes for
these has not yet been fixed. In the
Juvenile races there will be two classes,
one for youths between and IL and the
other between the ages OF y and 16.
There will be four ball games in which
Silver Plume, Georgetown, Central City
and Idaho Springs will play. Central
City and Idaho Springs will play against
Georgetown and Silver Plume SO that
the two latter will not have to com
pete against each other in the prelimin-
ary games. One Of the games will be
played on the Bird and the other un the
4th. The teams winning on these days
will contest for the prizes on the 5th.
The first prize is $50, and the second
$500. Idaho Springs will have two
running teams and perhaps third in
the contests on the part of the fire de-
partment. Bob. Morrison has been Sc
lected as manager Il these running
teams. 1t is expected that there will be
a brilliant display OF fire works on the
evening of the Fourth. At present this
is the tentative program, but other fea
lures will be given the public as they
are determined upon. Even with the
program as already outlined, it can be
readily ssen that our people may expect
very interesting times. The races and
department contests will no doubt he
pn1lyd on III the forenoons 81 the Fourth
and Fifth while the ball games will take
place in the afternoons OF the three days.
Tho hor for ouah will ha
quently determined and made public
through posters. Get ready for a good
time and do your part to make the oc-
casion such. This is no time for pull
ing back or kicking. 1t is the time for
unanimous cooperation.
