free value of the capitalization.
About Jan. 9, Vindicator Consoli-
dated Gold Mining Company, owned

the usual quarterly dividend. which is
preceded by an extra dividend OF 8
per cent, 100000, for the present holi-

The amount for this quarter, If the
regular rate is adhered to, will be 3
per cent of $45,0O0.
The Portland Gold Mining Company,
with rich reserves below 1000 feet
from surface, pays 2 per cent quar-
terly dividend Jan. 20. This amounts
to 100000 on the $3,OO0,000 in shares

since it started six years ago, first, in
the tonnage treated, and secondly in
the extraction obtained from ore run
ming less than SO to the ton.
The earning Of the mill was not as
high as in 1913, because Of more ore
being treated from the mine, for
which the mill account is charged the

The shareholders decided upon the
acquisition of more property, and for
that purpose a nucleus of 100000 was
set apart. The search will not be con-
fined to the Cripple Creek district.

porous In States History.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Denver.-The year 1914 was one of
the most prosperous in Colorado's his

ginning of the year just closed.
In New Year Greeting" to the
people of Colorado, Governor Ammons
says:
with the strike called off, with ma
tional policies seemingly settled, with
Wider and better opportunities for new
settlers and investors than we have
had in the state before, with desire
on the part Of great many eastern
people to move to western lands and
avail themselves of attractive offer
ings here, the year 1915 is full OF
promise.
"Our agricultural and livestock out:
put for the past year was the greatest
in our history, with better average
prices for crops than for several years
past. The outlook for the new year
in all lines Of agriculture is very
bright with a good prospect Of con-
tinued high prices for years to come.
"The year closes with valuable and
important mineral discoveries among
the older mines of the state and the
mining industry. being firmly estab-
lished upon a businesslike basis,
seems certain of great revival.
1.-The general situation promises
during the coming season employment
for our people and good returns for
the employer. In this favorable con-
dition our citizens should unite in
strong effort to make the coming year
the most productive and prosperous in
our history"

RIGHT OF j. S. TO GRANT,.
REGISTRY ISSUE IN CASE
American Protest Against Seizure Of
the Dacia Will Aver De-
NAL of Justice.

It has been determined that the
American protest against the French
prize court ruling. announced yester-
day. confirming the seizure of the
American cotton steamer Dacia, which
carries confscation of the vessel, will
be on the ground that a misinterpre-
tation OF international law has caused a
denial OF justice
The issue will be over the right of
the United States to grant American
register to the vessel. sold to an
American citizen by the Hamburg
American Steamship Company. a Ger
man corporation
France holds such a transfer to he
recognized must have been made thirty
days before the outbreak of hostilities.
Cotton Cargo Not Involved.
The Dacia's cargo of cotton is not
involved. The British government. be
fore the Dacia sailed from Galveston
last spring for Rotterdam. announced
that the cargo which was consigned
for Bremen would not be detained, the
announcement being binding upon
France. The French government pur-
chased the cotton through special
appropriation. First payments to the
owners of the cotton were made yes
terday at the State Department.
AT the beginning OF the present war
the United States served notice upon
the belligerents that as they had not
consented to observe the unratif1ed
declarations of London as whole, this
government would not be bound by
them, but would stand on the general
principles of international law in deal
ing with questions of neutral rights,
The protest against condemnation OF
the Dacia will rest on those principles.

while you business men of Wash

up to you to build roads into Virginia,
and that you have done enough when
you put the approaches to your city

you are losing more each year than it
would cost you to put the road into
condition, as the motorists of Georgia,
Florida and the Carolinas are avoiding
Washington on their northbound trips
and the northern motorists do likewise
when they travel south. and you BUSH
ness men are losing the money they
would spend with you II the roads
were in a condition SO that they could
