THE MOUNTAIN
 STATE ELECTION
Annual Meeting of Phone Company Operating Here Held In Denver and Two Additional Vice Presi- dents Are Created.

DENVER, Colo, Feb. 12.-At the annual meeting of The Mountain States Telephone and Telegraph Go. which was held at the offices of the company i'residcl Fic'd presented his annua! repo't GOV Hering the operations of the Mountain States system, and the fol- lowing directors were elected for the ensuing year:
 F. B Field, Edward B. Field. Jr, Philip Hamlin, Crawford Hill, E. s. Kassler and L. c. Phipps. Jr.. of Den yer, A. V. Hunter of LeadVille, w. l.. Graham of Pueblo, w, $. Mccormick of Salt Lake City and Theo N Vail and U. N. Bethell of New York
 Nothing other than routine business was transacted at the stockholders meeting. In presenting the annual re- port President Field called particular attention to the fact that the figures given embraced the transactions of tho entire system. noting that in the past, figures given embodying the transac- tions of the company as a whole, had been misquOted as covering the busi- ness done only in one city or one state, whereas they should have been clearly shown to cover operations in five states. The report is given in full in another column.
 Immediately following the stock holders meeting the newly elected di- rectors met and chose the following officers:
 TNiaI1 rraciJan+
 Edw B. Field, ,Jr, first vice pr~esi- dent and treasurer
 F. NJ. Burgess, vice president and general manager.
 Philip Hamlin, vice president
 J. E. Macdonald, secretary.
 Roderick Reid, general auditor.
 This practically constitutes a reelec- tion of the former officers, with tn, exception of the two vice presidents ere ated this year MT. F. M Burgess, for merly general manager. continues that title, and is made vice president ir charge of operation MT Philip Ham lin, assistant to the president, is elect ed a director and made vice presiden, | in charge of public relations. Both Messrs Burgess and Hamlir have long been identified with the tele- phone industry of the west Mir Bur- | gess came to Colorado from New York in 1881 and immediately entered the service of The Colorado Telephone company, serving respectively as man ager at Central City, chief inspector | Denver. general superintendent anC general manager. and on the forma- | tion of the Mountain States company was elected general manager of tha | corporation.
 MT Hamlin is a more recent arrival coming to Colorado from one of tn, eastern telephone companies in 1900 and having been identified since tha
 time with President Field as specia agent and later as assistant to tn, | president
 1 The growth of the company is re | spOnsible for the enlargement of tn
 authority of both these gentlemen il the action taken today.

Want Embellishments

THE people are never satisfied
without embellishments. Take the
moving pictures for instance. They
are wonderful in themselves. the fact
that photography depicts actual life,
is enough. or should have been. Now
that the first idea has worn off, the
picture outfits have introduced a lot
OF fake stuff. some crude comedy AMI
some over-acted, and in cases. sug-
gestlve acting. Even that seems to
please many audiences, but that is
not all. \ motion picture house has
to compete with vaudeville, in fact
1t makes vaudeville cheap and gives
big returns for little money. 1t is a
pretty poor show house that cant in
trOduCe a Partisan dancer. or a sword
sWailOWer, or some other stunt.
Song and dance artists are as thick
as flies and some need swatting lust
as bad. 1t is the embellishments. or
the trimmings, that the Americans
are demanding and they are Getting
it at every turn.

The Old Mint

THE breaking up OF the a%ntiquat-
ed machinery in the I. S. Mint at
this place and, the practical abandon
ment OF the place as a Mint, only
goes TO show that the smelter trust
has taken such a hold on the treas
ury department that it can dictate
where Uncle Sam coins his money
and how and when the government
may buy bullion.
When it is considered that the
Goldheld mines and others that are
operating are sending out millions
of dollars worth of gold annually;
that Tonopah is furnishing tons OF
silver. and that every ounce finds its
way to the smelter trust, it is a Won
der that such tactics can be toler-
ated. The Senate calls down other
trusts. 1t places the grafters on
the carpet and has stirred up a ire
mendous lot OF ruction in the big
concerns. but not a word comes from
this source, where millions are made
and where the Government seems 10
be standing in with this set of brig
ands.
The idea Of sending the bullion
past Nevada t other points for
treatment is like sending iron to
England and importing it for the
Americans. 1t is just as reasonable
to make this shipment OF money
metal as it would be on iron.
The dismantling OF the Mint in Ne
vada was an administration scheme
that was Matched for the benefit OF
the metal trust. The trust objected
to the minis making profits on re-
filming and coinage. They wanted the
profits. and by clever work the plan
was brought about. To-day Nevada
produces bullion enough, gold, silver
and copper. to keep the Mint hum
ming and also assisting the miners.
as the charges would be far less.
While the Senate and the lower
House are carrying on their lnvesti-
CATION. it might be we'll for them 20
look into the graft game that has
been played in this refining matter
for years.
Nevada is not the only section that
suffers from this unnatural condition
but this state has the heaviest COM
plant coming, as her bullion saved
the Nation from bankruptcy when i
was needed. The return for this
mountain of wealth is a d~ismantled
lot OF junk and a Federal assay Office.
poorly equipped with scant help
There is a chance for our Senior
Senator to get powerful busy and he
can stir up something if he will set
about it. 1t is possible that he
might find a lobby doing some work
along the metal lines that would in
terest the American people,
