BUS
INESS COMES
INTO ITS OWN

The predictions OF the optimists o.
Canon City. Harry Maddox and Others.
are coming true in regard to the tour
ist business. Friday five &acks were
seen going to the top OF the Royal
the automobiles that are used for Ilv-
cry purposes were making many trips
This is the first time this year that
all the hacks were busy at the same
time and It goes to prove that the
tourists are coming in very fast Can
on City has enjoyed a good tourist
business thus far this year but most
Of those who came were in automobiles
and did not give the hack men and
others in town 4 chance to make 4 lit
tie extra money
Now. those tourists who come by
train and stay for TWO or three days
are commencing to arrive. This is
what the people Of Canon City want
and It is the kind OF tourist trade
that they have been trying to get.
Hardly a day has passed but what
from fifteen TO twenty-five cars from
different parts of the country have
come TO the city and gone over the
scenic drives This Is a good lndica-
ton that the town Is advertised anl
everyone IS glad to see those peopia
come.
But they are a great deal more de-
lighted to see the train tourists arriv-
ing. 1t means a certain amount Of
money viii be left here that We would
not get otherwise. 1t means that =
good many OF the tourists who come
and stay for two or three days VII
be greatly impressed with the town
and perhaps will be the means OF get
ting some OF them to locate here.
During this month there will be
many excursions into the town from
different points in the state whore
conventions are being held for the
purpose Of showing the people who
attend these conventions what a mar
velous thing the Royal Gorge is and
also to show what wonderful scenic
sights there are in Colorado.
/ The more CT these excursions that
come. the better. Everyone that ar
rives means money for the hackmeu
and the hotel men and by indirac;
methods. perhaps. this money gets in
to Canon City circulation.

FROM BOTTOM
TO THE GORGE

(From Saturdays Daily.)

Ten thousand visitors who this sea-
svn are making the trip TO the top
Of the Gorge over the new road. re-
turned amazed and delighted with ne
uniqueness and magnificene of the
4ene. Their chief regret seems TO
be that ehere are not more means
OF entertainment during their stay II

why" said a visitor the other day
'if the top OF the Gorge were near
some of our great resorts it would
soon be the biggest natural attraction
on the continent Hotels would he
built on its summit. cables flung
from cliff to clln across the river on
which passenger cages would ply back
and forth. and hundred other devices
would be arranged for the entertain
me1S of the visitors that would throns
the place"
The fact is. this suggestion is by
no means new. Just as soon as some
cheap mode OF transportation Is sup
pIssd. and this is coming. these things
vAl come and the Top OF the Gorge
will rank with Niagara Falls. the
Yosemite Valley, and the Grand Can
yea OF the Colorado as a national
scenic attraction
Only yesterday a gentleman Of con-
siderable means was in town quiei'y
investigating the feasibility Of an in
clined railway from the top OF the
Gorge to the river and the railway
tracks below. According 10 this man =
plans the incline could easily be built
up through the ereyice which inter-
secif,he Royal Gorge near the hang
ing bridge. The gradient would MT
be any sleeper than that Of the Incline
up slount Manitou or up the bluns
at Dubuque. Iowa. or At Cincinnati,
oyo. Neither would the cost Of such
project as proposed be great consid-
ering its Importance.
II Ia understood that the officials

friendly TO the scheme and that they
would stop certain of their trains at
that point in order to give passengers
an opportunity TO see it from the tor
