feet was run from the Castle Rock
to catch this vein. On the surface
the two veins were together, but sep

Operations were started on the
Castle Rock property a year ago last

Moner OF the first state highway dis
trict,3 County commissioners Mckay,
Fritz and Stevens, accompanied by
the county surveyor. and attorney
went to Denver Saturday to meet
with him in regard to the state road
preparation for our county. The ap-
pointment was made for II a. m. Sat
urday morning On their arrival, 1T
was found that Mr.. Kuykendan was
on his way to Cheyenne by automo-
bile, he In the rush of business haw-
ing forgotten the appointment. The
long distance telephone was called
into requisition with the result that
the commissioner gladly returned to
keep his appointment. Twelve hund-
red dollars of the state highway fund
had been appropriated for the bene-
fit of Gilpin county. Mr.. Kuykendall
showed the Gilpin> delegation a map
of the state, purporting to show the
various state. roads in the several
counties, which had been gotten UP
by the former highway commission.
This map failed to show any state
roads Within the confines of Gilpin
county despite the fact that there
are at least three state roads in
the county, viz, the Apex road from
NJ, Il ha eyrI1<.h n
and the road from Tolland to Amer
lean City. The Commissioner then
stated that unless there are state
roads in your county you cannot draw
one cent from the state fund but he
was authorized to declare state roads
where the situation warranted it. But
before that was done no monies could
be appropriated. He agreed that be-
fore Monday or Tuesday he would no
tify the Board of County Commission
ers as to what date he could come
up, possibly with the state commits
sioner of highways. Mr.. Ehrhart. to
confer with the county commissioners
and citizens as to what would be
best to do in the matter. Up to to-
day. no word has been received from
Mr.. Kuykendall. When the gentle
man can find time to visit our coun-
ty, the date being determined a
meeting of the interested citizens, to
gether wikh the county officers will
be held at the rooms Of the Chamber
Of Commerce to get together and de-
terminc the rights of Gflpin county

NEW LIGHTING CONCERN

ises to be boon to the small op-

TO large extent. Messrs. James
E Lightboum, General Hal Sayre and
e. w. Williams are back of the en-
terprdse with others. This electric
company is an independent concern
and not hooked up with or affiliated

controlled by one gigantic corporation
The lines are to be strung from the
Boulder county line into this county

They will install transformers at no
cost to the parties buying power;
also they furnish electrical equipped
hoists and compressors to operators
OF mines who are financially unable
to equip same themselves. The mine
showing to warrant the expenditure.
These equipments are to be rented
and the rent applied as part pay
ments, thus making 1T easy for the
miner who is handicapped through
lack of sufficient machinery to prop
erly operate his property. Where the
cost of hauling coal is excessive, the
rates of the Highland Power company
will reduce expenses of hoisting and
drilling operations from one-third to
one-half of present costs. This is am
independent concern and ought to be
encouraged, as only by competition
can the big power companies be held
down to reasonable rates. 1t is hop
ed that this concern will not meet the
fate OF the many Independent smelt-
ers which had the hearty support Of
the ore shippers until such time as
the trust reduced their rates to a
ruinous competition with the result
that many shipped their ores to the
party offering the. lowest rates and
when the independent was put out Of
business, the trust raised their rates
higher than ever, to the sorrow Of
those who had failed to stick by the
competitive concern
The Highland Power company Will
have their lines in camp by Novem-
Der next, ready to serve their patrons
Electric heaters wild be furnished to
householders with juice at rates that
will flake 1T more economical than
