But my heart goes with dear "Wiil

For I've loved him long and true,

And remember-please remember
Even though my gift be small,

In appreciation of the increased
amount of business it has been my
good fortune to receive during the
past year, wish to express my
thanks at this time. The high stand
lard OF Coor's Golden beer, which is
maintained at all times, is the main
factcr that has brought about this
increase in business. Coor's draft
beer is found at all the leading sa-
looms in the county. Coor's steamed
bottled beer is not equaled in the
state; in fact it is the only home
brewed beer that is exported, being
the leading beer sod in Asia.

UBIQUITOUS SHELTER TRUST.

That the smelter TRUST is making
use of certain magazines and othel
periodicals in an effort to prove that
they are public philantropists and
not trust in restraint of trade, S
self-evident from reading the several
comments made en- the proposed in
vestigation called for by Congress
man Martin. The Engineering and
Mining Journal in commenting on
Congressman Martins resolution, has
the following to say in part under
date of December 18th:
Representative Martin, of Color
RADIO, is irrepressible. The affairs of
the A. S. & r. Co., were investigat-
ed by a Federal grand jury, which
was unable to find amy violation of
the Sherman law. Then Mr.. Wicker
sham put his legal sleuths on the
job; they, too, were unable to dis
cover anything. Yet Mr.. Martin lis
unconvinced. Mr.. Martin flatly de-
MED the assertion of the attorney
general that competitive conditions
prevail in the smelling business. New
ertheless, he WIS unable to make his
own contensions prevail in the last
session of congress"
We might state, that we are reliab-
ly informed that direct charges OF
Determinations made by the smelter
trust with data to corroborate same,
have been sent to the attorney-gen-
erals office; also to the department
of Commerce and Labor, which have
been completely ignored by these de-
partments. AS a threat and slur on
the miners of Colorado, the article
further states thst, 'In the mean
while the voters of Colorado have
been considering a constitutional
amendment to bring the 'smelter
TRUST as the tribunes Of the 'peepuP
are wont to call it, under the juris-
diction of public service conmiss-
ion. AS for that company (The A. S.
& R.) it might ccnceivably close its
Colorado ore producer to ship their
ore to Salt Lake Omaha or Chicago.
as they may see fit"
Here We see an implied threat that
If the terms of the amendmnt car
ried at the November election are
enforced, then the smelter trust will
boycott the mine operator in Color
ado. 1t is to be hoped Congressman
Taylor will fo1ow up the good work
started by Congressman Martin and
ly a little justice can be had for the
ore producer now that Wilson has
been elected president.
