upon the integrity, ability and repre-

through whom the people endeavor to
express themselves in political

Therefore, a public official can owe

When the government legislates for
the benefit of The laDorer it legislates
not alone for the people of the present

law that enables the laborer to better

THE "BURLlNGToN' REVocABLE
PERMIT COMMITTEE.
Denver, Colo.

The Burlington Railroad is asking
tie people of Denver to endorse by
their votes the ordinance permitting
them to construct tracks on Market
street for freight terminal purposes.
That ordinance has been adopted by
I the council. After being voted for by
the people it can be revoked at any
time by the council, or by the pro-
posed commission government body
If that body succeeds the present or
any future concil
The conditions under which the per-
NIT was granted by the council, are,
briefly, as follows:
1. The Burlington will pay the city
$4,000 outright.
2. The Burlington Railroad will pay
all expenses of paving, sewering, etc.,
ON the street.
g. The Burlington Railroad will buy
from the school board the school
house and real estate at present To-
cation at Market and 23rd street and
thus aid the board in building a
school house for that district in a
more desirable location
4. The Burlington Railroad will as
sumo all liability for damages to
"DuIeihS PiopSity OWutlS.
5. All other railroads will have the
right to use the tracks.
6. The city will have the right at
any time to purchase the tracks at
cost.
Z. The Burlington Railroad agrees
not to make any switching charge
against shippers located on the
tracks.
Various business organizations in
Denver have gone thoroughly into
the matter and have approved this
permit. On the other hand the bond
issue of 100000, as proposed by the
supervisors for the purchase and ex-
tension of municipality owned tracks
on Blake street, would only increase
the taxation of the people and result
ir bottling up Market street, the best
street available for Industrial ex-
pansion of the city. The only rail-
load that could possibly use the
Blake street tracks is the Union
Pacific railroad and that railroad is
already in occupation of Blake Street.
Investigation discloses the fact that
not one city in this country owns and
operates steam railroad freight termi-
halls, and the experiment proposed by
the supervisors would be only a cost
ly financial failure. The burlington
permit has been granted by the coun-
Gil. 1t is being referred to the voters
for their endorsement. We ask you
to endorse this permit by marking a
cross on your ballot opposite the
words "For said ordinance (X).

BIGGEST BOND, SMALLEST BUSI-
NESS

A. S. Hall was in from the sinks of
Big Lost river the Fourth of July,
and confessed that although he is
the postmaster at Hawley, Idaho, he
receives his mail at Sweet Sage. He
says the Hawley postoffice is not ex-
actly operating yet, owing to the de-
lays in building the Mackay dam and
other things.
Mr.. Hall says he was commissioned
last winter to the honorable position
Of postmaster at Hawley, in the town
known as McCollum on the Powell
tract overlooking the famous sinks,
that his friend E. R. Hawley went on
the official bond for five thousand
dollars and that Governor Hawley
qualified for one hundred thousand.
The responsibilities Of the office up
to the present time are Mill, and the
work has not commenced. If you
want to send a letter to this muchly
bond-protected place, address 1t to
Sweet Sage, Idaho, and some neigh
Dor will 60 that way and take 1t to
the person addressed.
