Boston, New York, Chicago, Denver.

Denver, September ., 1913.
Walter Walker,
Managing Editor The Daily Senti-
mel, Grand Junction, Colo.
Dear Sir:
Replying to your letter of August
20, advising us that certain citizens
OF Grand junction are in favor of
taking over part of privately owned
public utility properties by the city
and asking our opinion as to the is
suance of bonds therefor, we are, as
you probably know, heavily interest
ed in the city of Grand Junction, hav-
ing purchased it's last issue of water
bonds for the new gravity system. In
fact, several years before these bonds
were issued. representative from
this concern visited Grand Junction
and went up to source of supply on
Hannah creek. so that we could as
sure ourselves that this supply OF
water would be ample for your needs.
and we trust that it always will be,
although 1t may be necessary for your
city to build some reservoirs.
Possibly the best answer we could
make to your inquiry as to the city
OF Grand Junction selling bonds for
owning the public utilities is to refer
you to section s of article IL of the
constitution of the state of Colorado,
in which you will notice the follow
ing sentence:
But the aggregate amount OF debt
so created. together with the debt
existing at the time of such election.
shall not at any time exceed per
cent of the valuation last aforesaid" i"
Then follows that debts contracted
for supplying water are excepted from
the operation of this section. On the
present valuation of the city of Grand
Junction, therefore, for all purposes
outside of water as affects the issu-
ance of bonds that are n direct city
obligation, you have debt limit of
about s55, 900, and it is quite proba-
BILE that your present outstanding
warrant Indebtedness is partly lille
gal, although as to this we have no
evidence. We do not believe. (and
our attorneys are of the same opin-
ion) that your city can exceed the
constitutional debt limit in any man
ner by any provision in your present
charter, or by amending the same.
In any event, we do not think, even
II you could legally issue bonds for
the purposes mentioned, that they
could be sold to advantage, as it
would make the debt of your city
too large to make the bonds attrac-
tive to investors. We are large buy
ers of public utility corporation
bonds, and it has been our expert
ence that these utilities are very
much better managed by people of
long experience in their particular
line and give great deal better salts
faction to the people
Yours very truly,
e, II. ROLLINS & SONS.

grades in Colorado. The Utah end
OF the line was not considered impos-
sible or impractical and had nothing
to do with the decision. II was the
unanimous feeling of the delegates
that the Midland Trail association is
in better shape than II we had an
impossible proposition confronting
this, as is the case with Wyoming.
Most of the reports that Denver is
unfriendly to the Midland trail across
Utah originated with the advocates Of
the Overland route and are untrue
We have the assurance that the city
of Denver and the state of Colorado
will work in harmony with us, be-
cause it is to their interest to have
tourists see Colorado. Most of the
tourists who come to Denver will be
sent across Colorado and on to Utah.
Bridge the big washes and spend
a little money improving our road
and the same attractions that block
passenger traffic on the Denver &
Rio Grande railway every summer,
with numerous other greater ones
that we can add, will bring over the
Midland trail four-fifths of the au-
tomobile travel, no matter what 9TH
er roads may be hard-surfaced.
The road through Price canon is
now being used by automobiles and
teams, giving an outlet to all south
eastern Utah. and the farmers of
Utah county are hauling their fruit
and produce over II, opening a new
market to them. The Midland Trail
association will doubtless accomplish
much more good work, but should
they disband today the opening of
Price canon will justify every dollar
that has been spent ON the road and
1t should and will stand as an ever
lasting monument to that organiza-
tion

ways which minor injuries were
