The advertising automobile
train is travelling eastward making
on an average Of little over Zoo
miles day. The car representing
Idaho Springs is gaily decorated
with appropriate banners on which
is inscribed catchy ADVERTISE
ments, At each stop there will
be pictures of Idaho Springs,
framed and put in the hotels, mo-
o, clubs and other public places.
They have printed on them
such trite expressions as will give
a clear and concise. idea of the re-
sources and attractions of this
city. The train and it's members
are receiving great ovations from
the places at which it is scheduled
to stop, Along with the other ar
rangements for advertising there
should be placed in each and every
h otel and large apartment house
in Denver one of these framed pic
lures. The thousands Of tourists
who come to Denver are right at
our doors. They are looking for
short mountain trips by railroad
in general and manv for the same
kind of motor trips. By having
these in each and every hotel in
Denver, and even in other cities
of the state, the attention will be
attracted and Idaho Springs will
this receive the benefit. The tour
lists aim for Denver and should be
drawn here through such public
ity.

F. G. Dinsmore, president of
the King Solomon Leasing and Ex-
ploration company which is op-
Grating the Lalla lease passed
through the city this week Mr..
Dinsmore is putting in large
share of his time at the Lalla mill
these days and reports that the
mill is running in fine shape and
the gold looks good on the plates.
The mill was ready for opera
ton about May Ist and was start
ed up about that time but Pres
ident Dinsmore noticed that the
foundation to the engine did not
seem to be solid and had the mat
ter investigated. The mill was
built during the winter and 1t was
found that the cement had not
thoroughly set on account OF the
cold weather. This and some
other adjustments and additions
caused a delay of over month SO
that the mill was not started IN
dead earnest until last week. The
work will now be pushed in order
to make up for lost time.
The mine has not been idle how
ever, during this delay in getting
the mill started. Wook has been
pushed on the levels and slopes
aud something over 2 900 tons is
said to be broken down ready for
the mill. 1t is free milling ore
and the values are either caught
on the amalgamating plate or pass
ed over the tables into the concen-
trates.
The mill is ten stamp mill with
grizzley, classi6er, amalgamation
plate, concentrating tables etc. and
is modern throughout.
Now that the mill has started on
its good work we shall expect to
hear of fiud production from the
|Lrlla mine. While mining and mill
ing the ore already blocked out the
company will continue its work OF
developing and blocking out more
ore thus insuring a long successful
run.
The company operating the Lal-
la lease owns the, Eva D. lode
claim secured from Harper and
Burns. Work is not being push
ed on it at the present time but it
is very promising prospect.
Mr.. Dinsmore is also president
Of the King Solomon Tunnel and
Development Company which COM
pauy has a large interest in the
Leasing company and also IN the
King Solomon-Ro Robinson Mining
and Transportation Company
which is operating the Wilson
Mine at Kokomo. The Tunnel
and Development Company has
extensive properties at Frisco, Col
orado, with a tunnel driven into
the Ten Mile Range over 5000
feet and eleven veins cut. Vein
No. IL is said to contain some ex-
cellent lead-silver ore, containing
good values also in gold and copp-
er.

be kept properly thus insuring

There is no way in which
com unity gets SO much real ad-
vertising as it does through its
weekly papers. A community
may have occasional write-ups in
metropolitan dailies or magazines
perhaps a high price, but when
these are read they soon pass from
consideration Just the same as
any other general news. The
weekly papers keep boosting for
81 weeks in the year. They
boost everything that is good in
the community. They keep its
interests constantly before the
public They do it without any
special compensation. Many
things occur that could be passed
by with simply casual local men,
ton b',t the weekly papers are not
built on that plan. They are
strictly at home boosting and the
more they boost the more they
feel at home. The columns ex-
ira they produce means hundreds
of dollars of free advertising
and when times get hard, they
do not let up on their adver-
tising but put more vim and vigor
than at other times if such a thing
is possible. They advertise at
all times for the town and city to
highest pitch. In this they should
be backed up by the business in
terests of the city. The business
men should have two objects in
view in advertising. First for the
direct results they receive and sec
ondly for the assistance they rem
der the weekly papers in the gra-
tuitous advertising of the city
through the reading columns.
The latter mayin the end bring
the results to the first. At any
rate the advertisers should look
at advertising in this two fold
way and remember that they are
giving something to assist the
papers in boosting through the
free advertising meted out each
and every week. 1t is this per-
sistent constant weekly advertis-
ing of citv that counts and
business man should help the pa
pers through liberal advertising.
Each should consider that a part
of his advertising goes to the
credit of the general boosting Of
of the public and which brings er-
suits. There are no more mag
nanimous, self-sacrifcing and
poorly supported agencies than
the weekly papers in any COM
munity and no agencies do their
duty so completely and willingly
than these same papers that lack,
on the part of many, that sub
stautial backing which they most
effectively merit.

This community is certainly indebted
to Dick Staley for his Jealous efforts in
behalf of the Good Roads movement.
He has spared neither time nor money
in his efforts. The two entertainments
that he and his associates have gotten
up are alone the strongest evidences OF
his push and perseverance. When he
undertakes anything he is not satisfied
until be has obtained the very best re-
suits. A few Staleys in a community
would keep the wheels of progress re-
volving to their verybest limits. When
he has anything to do for the public the
motto Here There and Everywhere"
is a most appropriate one as applied to
him.
