POStmaSterS 10 Meet
Here Next Year

AS a result of the efforts of
Postmaster o. n. Marihugh the
Colorado Postmasters Association
will hold their annual convention in
Idaho Springs next summer, and
the location being so convenient it
is safe to predict that majority of
the postmasters of the state will
avail themselves of the opportuni-
ty to visit the Denver mountain
parks and the little Gem City of
the Rockies"
Colorado Springs and Pueblo
considered themselves in line for
the honor next year but with the
assistance and influence of the
Denver postmaster together with
Golden and Boulder, Mr.. Mari
hugh was enabled to land the
plum. The presidency>of the Or
ganization for the ensuing year
was also voted to Mr.. Marihugh.
The meeting this year was held
at Canon City Tuesday and We'd
nesday of this week, and an en-
thusiastic gathering and delight
full banquet is reported by Mr.
Marihugh, but the usual resolu-
tions and recommendations to the
men higher up were not made, as
those of last year were not kindly
received by the postmaster gener-
al.
Idaho Springs cannot give the
P. Ms a visit to the state peniten-
tiary as did Canon City but they
will inspect the new Denver post
otfce-the finest in the United
States--be banqueted in Denver,
take a trip into the mountains
and be banqueted again in Idaho
Springs-a la Marihugh.

This Subscriber
Has Hard Luck

The Siftings-News has lost a
valued subscriber as a result of
the many adversities which have
befallen citizen of Texas, who
probably formerly lived in Clear
Creek county and who now feels
that he cannot afford the luxury
OF subscription to the Siftings-
News.
Charles Medlinke writes from
Houston that he lost all of his
money in Fort Worth bank fail
ure, following which the president
killed himself. and that he and the
directors felt very much like do
ing the same. Then the hurri-
cane of few weeks ago tore his
house in Houston to splinters.
Mr.. Medlinke now reports that
he is now leaving Houston in dis
gust and for good.
Thus the Siftings-News has lost
a subscriber.

Ihree OF the largest Companies now
hold at N.25 pace for these forms

Sl-l5 for shapes. The large order Tor
locomotives have been followed by
an advance OF 50 per ton in the price
OF poiler tubes. Shafting and Steel
bands are also stronger.
The most encouraging feature dur.
ing the week was the heavy buving OF
railroad equipment for export. Russia
closed for $50 locomotives. France and
Servia for "a and 20 locomotives. re.
spectively. France also consummated
for. 10000 tons OF rails and for 3.745

motives, 1000 cars and 10000 tons OF
rails In all. railroad equipment
orders called for $50. 900 tons of rolled
steel Miscellaneous export orders
amounted to about $4,000.
Marine work also was gratifying.
Steel building and bridge work Is
again quiet.
