Of Success. Looks Like
Land across River

Over six thousand dollars has been
pledged to the purchase of the fair
ground.
This was the report made to the
business men Of the city at meet
ing in the commercial club rooms
last night. Rud Stensvad and D. L.
Crimmins have circulated the petit
ton and have secured the pledges.
Work will be continued during the
next two weeks and on Monday eve
ming December Is final report will
be made and a definite conclusion
arrived at.
At last nights gathering there
was an evident disposition to secure
about 16 acres across the river near
the base ball park, now owned by
George Whittet. This could be pur-
chased at very reasonable figure
and Mr.. Whittet would take $500 of
it in fair association stock.
That there is to be fair ground
seems now assured. That it will be
the best in this section Of the state
goes without saying and the liberal
responce on the part Of the bust.
ness men shows determination to
have suitable ground.

A LAUNDRY COMPANY.

j. J. Houston, III. ]. M. Brown, t. s.
Clinkscab and o. T.. jackson met in
the office OF Cohen and Houston, Sat
urday, April /, 1911, for the purpose
of organizing Laundry Company, to
establish first class modern laundry
business.
The company will be capitalized for
$1,000, divided into $4,000 shares at
par value of s1.00. each. Agents will
be put to work to solicit stockholders
and laundry work. All who are inter
ested in an enterprise of this kind
which will furnish employment to
twenty or more people, can call on
either of the above named promoters
for further information.
1t is fact that there are two thous-
and laundry bundles delivered each
week to the Denver laundries by our
people which will average fifty cents
each, or a total of laundry work from
colored people alone of $1,000 per
week. We believe that a colored laun-
dry company can control at least one
fourth of this business, and we can
secure any amount of commercial
work from hotels and rooming houses.
Another meeting of the promoters
will be held Saturday, April Sth, at
$3.50 o'clock p. m, at the office OF
Cohen and Houston to perfect the or
ganization. Four good lady solicitors
are wanted to canvass for the COM
pany.

JUST ONE.

Yes, just one unscrupulous person
will hold down a thousand good ones.
1t is just the same with merchan-
disc, a worthless article put on the
market will not only kill itself In
course of time, but will also prove a
hindrance to many good articles.
To over balance this injustice, it is
the duty of every honest person to
make known, as far as possible, the
Injustice done an honest person or
meritorious article.
Believing in the foregoing, it affords
the editor pleasure in speaking WORD
in behalf of Ford's Hair Pomade, an
article that has been on the market
for many years and while there has
been many worthless limitations put
out, this article has lived and is bound
to live and prosper long after the
worthless trash is consigned to the
waste basket.
Help a worthy cause along ana
when using Hair Pomade, use Ford's
Hair Pomade.
