Southern railroad to the effect
that dollar round trip from Den
yer to Idaho Springs would be
made any day in the week for par
ties OF 100 or more, lt was sup
posed that it would include holi-
days. On this theory an excur-
sion was worked up on the part of
the Fraternal Union of Denver
but when represen tatives of this
traternal order went to make
arrangements they were informed
that on the Fourth of July the
round trip rate would be 81 10 in
stead of SI-oo. And now there

the old saying that a Corporation
is soulsss" and they are just about
right. When the company ar
ranges for a special occasion the
people have no opportunity to
know the fact as no publicity
seems to be arranged for. Per-
haps the company depends on the
newspapers to do charitable ad-
vertising for them

and had most pleasant reunion.
The people of this city have been
very persistent and loval during
the past two years in their adve-
cacy of good roads, and most lib
era in raising funds and donating
labor to accomplish their desire
has been done with the idea that
great good would esult f. ON these
efforts and sacrifices. Time will
demonstrate the wisdom of such.
Hence without in the least dis
counting the acts, or questions
ing the beneficial results that may
accrue, it looks now as if the
works and judgement of our peo-
pie should be concentrated on our
mining industry and showing to
the world that we have the mines,
that it is mining that has laid the
foundation of Colorado's pros
perity and that it is this same solid
induatry that is contributing
large share to the states prosper
ity in direct manner and also a
large share indirectly through
the large consumption of the pro-
ducts of the farms and fruit or
chards. Eliminate the mines from
this section and the owners of
properties in this city could not
sell their holdings for ten cents on
the dollar. The revenue from al!
other sources would be but a
bagatele compared with the revenue
from the mines. There-are several
mines in the district shipping
thousands of dollars week and
1t is this work that is the backbone
of our financial standing. what
we want are more mines operating
we have them standing idle for
want of capital to properly equip
them. We have the gold and silver
but there is rock around them that
requires money to remove 1t. we
want the same perseverance, the
same pull-together spirit, the same
boosting in behalf of mining as we
have exercised towards good roads
and we will get people here 1t is
not spasmodic but continuous,
We should have strong mining
association composed of mine op-
orators, mine leasers and smine
workers for all classes are equally
interested in snccess. Each and
every mine added to the substan-
tial shipping list will bring more
revenue into our city than all the
tourist business (Which we are
glad to have] and such an acquisi-
ton will be the year throughout
and not confined to several weeks
in the year. Let the good roads
and tourist business be cared for
but let us at the same time begin
to push that which is more to us
than these by a hundred fold. In
reaching after the dimes of plea

glect to look after the dollars o.
