Charles f. Painter has severed his
connection with that paper and it
is now the property of his sons, Da-
rid S. Fainter, and William r. Snow,

The retirement of Mr. Painter

while Mr., Snow, during his work in
Telluride. as editor of the paper, has
shown himself to be a strong and
forceful writer. They will no doubt
receive bountiful share of the
