has characterized this com m uni.
ty in the Floyd Hill Boulevsrde
movement is such as has reflected
the highest appreciation and %
forcibly impressed itself upon the
minds of thousands who have
heard or read of the "Way Idaho
Springs does it," Independent Of
the great results that will follow
up the opening of this great high
way to Denver, the wonderful
amount Of advertising that has
followed this get-to-gether spirit
and work is beyond conjecture.
One cannot go anywhere within
the confines of this state and men
ton Idaho Springs without hear
ing the greatest compliments
passed for the manner in which
the citizens have worked shoul-
der to shoulder for the good of the
community. Nor is this reputa-
tion restricted to state lines. II
now remains for us to keep ON
making good by laying aside jeal-
ously. sel6shness or any quality
that is antagonistic to community
success and keep right on work,
ing in unison for greater Idaho
Springs which will surely be the
result of active and unselfish CO.
operation. In this one move all
are entitled to the highest degrees
of thanks. The man who has Civ
en- a day or two of his time
from his daily toll has
made a most creditable con-
tribution aud is entitled to a full
mead of praise. The man who
has contributed money whereby
others can be employed at the
manual work has shown a true
patriotic duty. The corporation
that has turned over its labor
for pushing this important
work has shown its inter

School. the ladies' who made do,
nations, the people who will not
be directly benefited from outside,
but who have recognized this spir
it of self-help for the community,
all these elements are to accorded
the gratitude of coming years for
their generosity. Hence it is the
universally of the contributions
that counts and not simply indivi-

generous recognition aud nerited
praise. While such is the case
one cannot help admiring the
praiseworthy and heroic way in
which Commissioners I. d. Ellis
and Charles Hickman have taken
hold Of this matter aud worked
long and hard for the realization
OF the peoples desires. From
The beginning of the movement
last year down to the present hour
they have taken the highest inter
est in the measure by attending
the meetings that have been held
in behalf of the Good Roads and
being active IN everything per
tanning to paving the way for the
fslfllment thereof. They have
Baked up the movements and have
Backed up their talk by their ac-
tive, laborious aud practical work
and their liberal contribution of
Zine and means. And they will
Just continue this loyalty until
the last spade of dirt is thrown
for they do not belong to the quit
ting class. As county officials
and as private individuals they
have earned the graciousness and
gratitude of this community and
ctber sections of the county. The
liberal donations of John Owen in
turning over Tie entire force Of
workmen from his mines, the
generosity of Rens E. Shirmer of
the Newhouse tunnel in contribut-
ing the labor of that company and
the magnanimity of many smaller
com panies in donating one or more
day labor of all their employees
surely shows a confidence and
loyalty in the interests of this
comm unity that is most commend
able. There is glory enough in
the manner of these contributions
to 60 all around and the one who
has contributed his widows
mite with shovel and pick has
made a sacrifice in proportion to
his condition as those who have
larger sums. Let the
good work of cooperation, Of get
ting together and staying togeth-
er go on. 1t means larger de-
velopment, increased capital. bet
ter facilities, improved conditions,
stronger social relations aud a no.

mines. These have been made in
the Bride, the Bellman. the Shaft

Kitty Clyde. Katie Rmmett, Gem,
Stanley and many others of lesser
magnitude. Many prospects have
also been opened up. In the Gem
there have been several big r.kes
and at such depth as to prove the
continuity of ores as depth is
gained. Among the latter is that
of this week when the leasing com
pany of Richard White of this
city and Hon. L. A. VonTilburg
of Cripple Creek and their asso-
.ciates ran into an oreshoot, in the
east lateral from the Newhouse
tunnel and at a depth of about
72oo feet on the dip Of the vein,
eleven feet in with. In this
shoot there are two feet of gray
and silver copper ore that runs
approximately $loo per ton. The
leasers have been driving in the
lateral for several weeks and their
Efforts have thus been literally re-
warded. In addition to the
gray and silver copper ore there
are nearly two feet of lead ore that
assays 81 per cent. A round Of
twenty holes was shot one night
this week that Knocked down
100 tons valued at $4,000. Along
with this are from three to four
feet of milling ore of a profitable
nature The work in the mine
has been done by Evan J. Will
liams and Nels Holm, of Cripple
Greek and who are thoroughly
experienced miners. Dick White
is subject 70 congratulations over
this strike aud his many friends
are pleased to extend him such
and hope that the strike will be
continuous and of large values.
There is no safer nor more relia-
bic camp in the state than Idaho
Springs. There is none where
the inducements to find solid and
nd profitable investments than
right here. There is none in
which the conditions for success
full and continuous mining is
more inviting. With railroad
facilities that are never blocked
by snow or slides, with a climate
that permits of mining every day
in the year with abundant milling
and sampler facilities for treat
ing the ores, with labor always
available and living reasonable,
there is every inducement for good
investments.

Justly proud of this large mill and
its equipments. he machinery is
of the latest design and SO ar
ranged a. to work rs near automatic

proposition. The entire batteries of
of fifteen stamps will soon be heard in
pounding the ores. At present the
work 10 confined to the dirt that was
dug out from beneath the floors when
they were taken up and which repre-
sent the accumulation of years. The
saving of values will be of the highest
degreee as the ore passes over ANAL

pride to the community and Mr.. Staley
is to be heartily congratulated. What

completion of this boulevarde the min

thousands of automobiles that will
come up here from Denver. The space
is given to keep up the wonderful in

The Next Stop

The public should not forget that
a commission which has the power TO
regulate railroad freight charges IA
yorably to the shippers, has at the
same. time the power to regulate them
to the shippers. This pro-
position is obvious, yet II is often
forgotten. Especially In moment OF
jubilatlon following a decision reliey-
ing the pubic OF increased charges, II
is usual and ii may be not inexplic-
able, that the reverse OF the picture
should escape notice. But when des-
potic powers of regulation are vest
ed In an appointive board. with little
direct responsibility to anybody 1t is
apparent that the time may come
will come-when there will be decis-
ions rendered more illustrative. to the
popular thinking OF the despotism
than OF the attendant benevolence.

vested in government, IL is clear-it
Is going to be clearer-that the pri-
vate capital invested In railroads is
practically Invested of control OF its
property. Wages cannot be reduced;
the public is sure to be on the side
Of the men and with the cost of liv.
ing on the increase, an attempt to
reduce wages would precipitate a
strike which, with public sympathy
behind II, would wreck the strongest
railroad corporation. On the con-
trary. the tendency is to increased
wages. Dividends must be paid: the
railroad property must be kept up:
improvements. and up.to-date safety
appliances, are constantly demanded
Extensions OF the existing lines. add.
lions and betterments. are demanded,
and here again, public sentiment says
yes
But governmental regulation says
that there must be no increase OF
rates, to meet the increased wages
and increased cost OF interest. II
is evident that industry and business
are merely marking time and living
from hand to mouth. How long Is II

is IL to be wondered. that some prac

Association completed-Asoeiaton to
Be Formed

The organization of the Brattleboro
Baseball association was completed
at meeting Of the subscribers in the
county clerks Office Wednesday eve
ming when the constitution and by
laws drawn by the committee appoint
ed for that purpose we're adopted and
the following directors chosen for the
ensuing year: Martin Austin, James
p. Ferriter, Charles w. Cleveland,
Hermon e. Eddy and Howard c. Rice.
These directors organized by choos-
ing the following officers. President,
H. G. Rice; vice president, j. P. Fer
ritter; clerk, II. f. Eddy; treasurer,
Glanham Jones.
At present the local baseball fund
amounts to about $1,000 but it is be-
lieved that there are many people in
terested in the sport who have not
had an opportunity to subscribe. To
accommodate them the subscription
paper has been put in the hands OF
the treasurer at the Brattleboro Trust
company where pledges may be left
The directors have decided to collect
so per cent of the subscription be-
tween now and April /.
1t is probable that a meeting will
be held in Bellows Falls within the
next two weeks to complete the orga
nization of the league in which Brat
tleboro will be represented, the other
teams being Bellows Falls, Keene,, n
H., and combination representing
Charlestown, n. H., and Springfield
VT. The present plan is to start the
season Saturday, July /, and continue
through Labor day, each team play
ing four games a week. two OF then
at home.
Z The local directors have already ia
ken up the question of securing {
competent and experienced managel
for the local team, and ii is hoped t
get this matter settled within a few
weeks so that whoever is chosen L
fill the position can begin at once t
pick his players.

This description was objected to by
