give it fair trial. Other states have
adopted prohibition and not gone to tho
eternal bowwows and we see no reason

benefit to the state.-Coloradoan

The education of the future will have
to include wider scope and above all
it must encompass the every day prac-
teal lessons of life and until these
things are brought about we might as
well keep the kids at home after they

bore down particularly heavy on the
modern system of teaching and each

Aspen and the smaller mining CAMPS
throughout Pitkin, Eagle and Garfield
counties are excited over the recent
discovery of tin values in the hills
around Carbondale. Several prospect
ors have been busy in this section all
summer and have found some very good
copper and zinc deposits. Assays have
been secured from Denver showing tin,
copper and zinc values in large per
cent. Development work is now being
done on the veins and the news has at
tracted many mining men to the scene
bent on locating ground in the new
district. 1t follows that tin was dis
covered in this section several years
ago and that quite a rush was made
for the new ground. Nothing ever ma
terialized from the former strikes, but
it appears that the present showing is
much better than previous, and that
valuable results will be forthcoming
in the near future.-Leadville Herald.
