1t is understood that the report

Kuhnen who were sent out here
from Highland III. as committee

Mountain Mines and Tunnel Co.

proven ,ery satisfactory to the
parties in whose interest they
were sent here for. 1t appears
that they made a thorough and

the properties belonging to the
company including the water
power facilities and the timber
auvantag-s that obtain in the vic

MINING MACHINERY
ORDERED

Manager S II Congdon of TIE
Treasure Mountain Tunnel com
pany returned to the city from
Denver the first of the week
where he had been purchasing a
car Of machinery for his water
power compressor plant which
will be located on the tunnel and
m.llsite. The pipe line viii be
twelve inches in diameter at the
intake and six where it enters the
pelton wheels at the foot of the
line which is less than two thous-
and feet in length and gives
four hundred feet pressure head
developing ever five hundred
horse power to be used in th-
tunnel driving, operating the mill
and furnishing light for the entire
+. workings of the companys prop
erty. The machinery will be
shipred 10 this poin. from which
it will be hauled by wagon to the
'tunrel location where boarding
houses and other buildings are in
process of construction. 1t is
exp ected that 10y the first of Oct.
this plant will be completed and
ready for operating with Leyner
compressor and drills used in
driving the tunnel bore which

negro the next tine h" is to con-
nit q crirne will reialiate with a
more vindica,ive ferocity.
And if mob law and violence
were the solution the problem
would have been solved long ago,
for surely, lynching that insiitu-
ton which is peculiar to the
Uited States. has been praeticed
FOR years and has reached a high
degree of perfection in its inhl :
man atrociy.
Even when all the safeguards
of our intricate system of laws
is thrown aronnd a person who
is suspected, the wrong man is
sometimes hung and is i not
reasonable to suppose that {
great many of the victims OF
OF impe'uous mohs, are innocent.
Nc, there is no justification fer
lynching. 1t is the theory OF
anarchy exenplified and if en-
coursged it will without doubt
develope ard ultimately Under
mine the foundations Of our
republic.

THE GUNNrsoN Hwy cRor.

There is being harvested in
Gunnison County at the present
time one of the largest. if not the
largest, hay crows ever harvested
The season here has been unusally
favorable and with a fair month
in which to gather. We will have
to market on a crop If unusual
size and excellent quality. This
being the case the r a n C h men
should look well to the marketing
of the same, as other portions of
this state and other states have
not been blessed with the proper

price should be somewhat higher
this season than in recent years
as the shortage extends over a
large portion of the United States
and in the territory contiguous
to Colorado is especially agrivat-

THE EPIDEMIC Of LYNCHING
We read with horror of q terri
bic lynching by turning at til c
Ixtskefn Purcell Okla Ofanother
in Pennsylvania, where an infur-
lated mob. poured oil over a man,
tied him to a cot and BURNED
HIM ALIVE. And t lis in
America, a land that is supposed
to be civilized. a land which boasts
of its courts of justice and its
intricate systems of laws. w e
have read of the horrible puni h.
ments inflicted on Russian prison
ers and the. atrocities visited upon
upon Christian missionaries by
the heather Chinee. But in
Russia they give the prisoner
trial even though in some cases
it merely matter of form, and
never do they barlarously burn
a man alive. The Chinese are
heathens and supposed to he semi
civilized, but their most ingen-
iously cruel form of torture is as
nothing compared to the horrible
revenge in licted upon defenseless
men dy the unreasonable Ameri-
can mob and yet the citizen who
has sufficient courage to condem
lynching is rare. Their justifica-
ton and the justification Of the
mob which they exonerate, is.
that the victim Of the burning is
black. that he is ignorant, that "if
you give him an inch he will take
a mile" and that he must be in
timidated.
Yes he is black and unsophis-
ticated; his race has just emerged
from centuries of slavery, and he
has not back of him, ages OF
education, culture and refinment

: sideration, which crime is h e
