METHODS OF THE OPPOSITION

The extavagant claim of railroad contractor Hepey that Delegate Wick. ersham is opposing the Guggeuheims because he was not favored at one time. recalls bit of history during the last delegate election campaign. A financial agent of the Guggs. we'll known as a former public official in Alaska. and later as lobbyist of the big interests made a hurried trip to Nome. arriving a day before the date ot the delegate election, This repre- sentative of the Guggs had been ad- yIsed while in Seattle that Wicker sham was going to win the election. His trip to Nome was either to buy wickersham out Of the race by repay ing him his expenses or securing from him a promise Of support for the Gugg lineup Word was sent to Wick ersham to see the Gugg agent, After a conference with his political man. ager wickersham sent back word he had nothing to talk over with the Gugg agent and all idea ot a confer ence was off. Then the word went from the Gugg agent to uncOrk the barrel and to beat Wickersham at all odds. As a result Heney and other Gugg agents made their greatest er- fort At Cordoya nine hundred voters were punched like cattle and an efSOr made to elect Corson. This same agent put up the money for the young man filing the proxies of the shacde- gord delegation at the Chicago conven ton and is no doubt the master hand handing out the coin to the fat lobby now at work at Washington.
 In view Of these facts these Gugger helm agents should be careful how they attack a man whom they tried to buy out Of the delegate race and whose record is clean at Washington. Their abuse of a man for being politi- cally honest will avail them nothing and only cause a complete exposure Of their political methods.-Juneau Dispatch

NEW ROUTE BETWEEN THIS CITY
AND DENVER FOUND.

A new, shorter and easier route
from Grand junction TO Denver has
been found by the Colorado Midland,
so says the following story of local
| interest which appeared in yester-
days Salt Lake Tribune:
The Colorado Midland has found a
new, lower and shorter route between
Grand junction and Denver, which
will give il practically a = per cent
grade all the way, thus equaling the
present best trans-mountain road,
! the Union Pacific.
Under the guise of reservoir site
seekers, surveyors have been in the
field all the past summer seeking
this route. BY running from Aspen
to the west of the Saguache range
and around the southern base of
Mount Princeton, the Midland has
found = per cent grade all the way
from Aspen to Buena Vista, thus cut
ting out Leadville and giving n more
direct route on better grades.
THE present line has as good
grades from Buena Vista into the
valley of the south fork of the Platte
| and the 3 and per cent grades begin
east of there, in the Pixies Peak reg
ion. The plan is to run "A connection
on down the south fork and connect
with the South Park branch of the
Colorado ~ Southern, thus entering
Denver on per cent grade all The
way from Grand Junction. Part of
the road up the south fork il already
built"
