The proposed statute is urged BY

mems associations of the state. All
have suffered through the acceptance
in payment Of accounts of checks
where the man writing them had tri-
fling accounts There is no law on III
statute books to reach such offenders
even though their attempt to defraud
is apparently deliberate.

no. s coal MINE ms
BEEN REOpENED

The re-opcning few days ago Of
the Nonnc. or No. 5. coal mine in
Prospect Heights by the Colorado Fael
& Iron company after long shut
down is an event OF considerable in
.terest to the people of Canon City and
has already been Of benefit to them in
reducing the price of coal.
At present only twelve or fifteen
men are employed at the mine; twelve
in digging coal and three at the mouth
of the shaft. The number will be added
10 as the demand for the company's
product increases. as is likely to be
the case in the near future. E. H.
Weitzel of Pueblo. who has charge Of
re-opening the various coal mining
properties of the c. F. & I. company
throughout the state, was in Canon
city recently and in the course Of a
CbAft cdlAon WIN ". 'ocA ~ A@c.-f
local sales agents for the product OF
The Nonac mine. gave 1t as his opin-
ion that the day of cheap coal in Colo
iado was thing Of the past and that
the price. in ali probability. would
never again go down to the three dol
lar and half basis that IT occupied
a few years ago Coal is more expen-
sIve to mine than it used to be. he
said. and thre were economic reasons
why the price was not likely TO de:
cline very much from the existing
standards. Mr.. weitzel stated that
the people OF Canon City ought to
aave as cheap coal as anybody in
colorado and he was glad to see that
si,ey were getting the full benefits to
which they were entitled by reason
# their nearness TO the coal fields.
