A SHREwDER INVESTING PUBLIC.
All of the 1.773 second-c1ass post
Offices have now been designated as
savings banks, with the prospect that
by September 2s the 426 hrst-class
Offices will be open for the receipt of
savings and the system in general
operation throughout the country.
It's usefulness has been well demon
strated by the extent to which the gov
ernment repositories for savings al
ready open have been utilized by the
public. The postal banks in New York,
Chicago Boston and ST. Louis during
their first three weeks Of business re-
ceived deposits amounting to $250,0O0,
and it is expected that by September
1 the aggregate deposits in the second
class Offices win reach $2,ooo,0Oo.
The deposits made at the rural
postal banks have been relatively
small and those received at the four
frst-class savings repositories above
mentioned do not compare in volume
with the daily receipts of the ordinary
savings banks But representing. as
they do. money previously withheld
from deposit and conhded now to the
governm care in return for a
smaller rate of interest, but with alb
soIute security, they testify to f1nan-

The bill making an apprriopr

The bill making an apprrioprl
tion of $4,000 for grading the
Floyd hill road passed the House
on Wednesday afternoon. Rep
resentative John Old has been un-
firing in his efforts to secure the
appropriation and is TO be highly
plimented for his success in
getting it through the House OF
which he is a member He has
merited the enthusiastic gratitude
of this entire sec,ion. In the sem
ate the bill will be looked after by
Sen ator B. J. O'Connell who will
Use his best efforts i'll having it
passed by that body at the present
sum if not for larger one. When
this appropriation becomes avail
able and the work of reducing the
grade at Floyd hill is accomplish
ed, it will result in a large auto
mobile travel from Denver to this
city and Clear Creek county. For
a month a party Of automobllists
in a train OF cars will tour through
Colorado. An invitation has been
extended them to come to Idaho
Springs which no doubt will be
accepted whether the grading is
completed or not. 1t will only be
a beginning of the large travel
that will be in evidence between
Denver aud this mountain resort
as it will be the shortest and most
picturesque mountain trip on the
map.

THROUGH cursory question
ing Of large number of citizens,
the fact is apparent that xig-zag
path up the mountain on the north
side Of the city is a very desira Bile
Improvement. 1t is one that only
requires labor and even this will
not be a large demand. When
the path is surveyed the work can
be done by those who work out
the street tax or have some one do
it for them. 1t will be popular
counterpart to the path on the
south side of the city. The city
needs just such attractions not
only for the tourist to climb and
"view the landscape DER" bnt
also for the pleasure of our citi-
zens aud who will patronize such
in large numbers. Nature has
done all that is possible for a
beautiful location. Its work
should be supported by oppo-tun-
tiles to see the beauties both near
and far that tho mountains afford.
Easy access to the summit of
these "outlooks' will add to
our attractions in every way BY
letting them be seen and to be
eesn is to be enthusiastically ap-
eiated.

several days ago appropriating

is now up 10 the governor OF the
state to approve the bill. This
county IS eutitled to this recogni-
ton. 1t has poured its wealth in
to the lap of Denver directly and
throughout the state n all indirect
