Alaric looked at Ethel, and a feeling
Of pity came over him. 1t was dis

wrongs occupied most of his attention.
But, after all, he could buffet the world

But Ethel. reared from infancy in the
environment of independence-itw would
come very hard and bitter on her.
Alaric just touched Ethels hand. and
with as much feeling as he could mus

Ethel shook her head almost deter

Mrs. Chichester looked up pleadingly.
Alaric went on: ''I'll put my hand to

be a workingman."
At this Ethel laughed queer, little,

BAKING a PUDDING.

When baking pudding always place
the baking dish within stew pan or
larger baking dish half full OF water.
You will then have no burned edges,
no hard crusts and consequently no
waste. and 1t will be infinitely easier
to wash the baking dish.

however, any celebration once post

seems to have lost its attractions,

SiftingS Office Nov
inq TO New Home

1t no fun to move a printing
office and we are moving two Of
them.
This issue of the Siftings-Nsws
will be the last issued from the To-
cation at Fifteenth and Railroad,
occupied by the paper for num-
Der of years. Saturday the news
paper press will be dismantled,
moved to the new room on Miner
street next to the First National
Bank, and erected on a solid con-
crete foundation built to fit.
Other equipment from both the
Siftings plant and the Cassatu job
office will follow and be placed in
position ready for the dispatch of
work. Considerable material will
be discarded and give way to the
newer and more modern tools and
equipment which permit the
present day printer in the country
to do work equal to the best city
Offices and to do it without un-
necessary loss of time.
The building which was long
occupied as a meat market has
been thoroughly rebuilt and bears
not the slightest trace of its former
occupancy 1t is now one of the
lightest, cleanest and neatest fin
ished business rooms in Idaho
Springs.
It will take some little time to
get moved and properly arranged,
bs,t-<shcn the work Is completed,
the Siftings Office will be termed
the best located, most convenient
ly arranged and most modernly
equipped small town printing
plant in Colorado.

City'S Expenses
Must Be CurtaiIed

1t developed at last nights
meeting of the city council that
if the present rate of expenditure
is maintained during the remain
der of the year the city will be an
additional 5000 in debt at the
end of the fiscal year
During the seven months Just
passed the bills allowed have
reached a total of $l2, ,445. with no
payment on the water bonds and
with but one-half the interest paid.
Guy G.. Stumm, as chairman of
the finance committee, informed
the council as to the exact condi-
ton of affairs, placed the total
revenue for the year at $4,000,
and made it plain that it would be
necessary to cut all expenses to
the minimum. While it is not the
duty of the finance committee to
place restrictions on the city's ex-
penditures, but only to see if the
obligations are legally incurred,
Mr.. Stumm threaten ed to refuse to
place his 0. K. to any further
withdrawal of the city's funds for
extravagant purposes. One of the
wastes referred to is the too fire.
quent hire of livery rigs.
The chairmen of the various
committees will figure out their
necessary requirements for the
remainder of the year and meet
with the finance committee in an
effort to make the supply of cash
hold out.
On Monday, Oct. IS, the coun-
Gil will meet again, in special ses-
sion, to pass the ordinance for the
new levy. During the coming
month the council must determine
what the new water rates will be.
Data is being secured from other
cities, and it is probable the rates
will be materially raised, although
the new rates cannot be put into
effect before June.

OPPOSED TO EXTENSION OF Gov
ERNMENT PARKS
Mayor McClelland asked the aid
of the Denver commercial body to
prevent the transferring of terri
tory embracing the Cripple Creek
and the Clear Creek mining dis
tricts and mountains valuable in
forests and mining into national
Fairgrounds. If this had been
done some years ago, tungsten at
Boulder could not have been
mined, and several valuable new
minerals besides our exceptional
radium would have lain forever:un-
covered.
There, is a promise that laws
will sometime be enacted to re-
lieve the situation in the public
domain, but Mr.. McClelland be-
lieves that it would be we'll to wait
for that time for the forestry ser
vice is now doing practically as
much for our mountain regions as
the government would do for a
national park.
VIM. L. Bush. president of the
First National Bank, and one of
Clear Creeks leading financial
men. was called upon for talk
about our prosperity. He said
that the past year or two have,
thanks to. good roads, brought
about condition which rendered
his subject not difficult one.
ADVISES DENVER TO DRINK RAD
~ IUM WATER
Mr.. Bush spoke of renewed ac-
tivity in mining because develop
ment work can be done at less ex-
pense with tunnels than by the
shaft method. Then, too, since
Mr.. Holland as manager of the Hot
Springs hotel has assured visitors
that they can be well cared for,
we have begun to feel the effects
Of the tourist trade. He advises
the now famous Denver water
commission to pipe down some of
our radium water for their afflict-
ed, believing it fully as feasible
as some of their recent propo-
sails.
Ex-Governor Ammons was asked
to talk on Good Roads" This
isn't hard subject for Colora-
dos former governor, for he is for
them heart and soul. He thinks
that if Just the water commission
were fed upon radium water for
season they would be more able
to handle their difficult job.
RELIEVES CLEAR CREEK COUNTY IN
LEAD ON GOOD ROADS
The speaker said that consider
ing difficulties to be surmounted,

and small valuation upon which
to levy taxes, he believes that our
county shows up best of all in
effor along the line of road build
ing. He does not believe in ty-.
ing up resources by making ma
tional Fairgrounds All Colorado
needs is the opportunity to build
her own roads just as other states
have done, with all her land tax
able. Our state needs S4O.OOO,OOO
for roads to-day and a campaign
should be started now to turn over
to the state all of its own resources
for we know better how to devel-
op our country than anyone else
possibly can, and whatever bene-
fits us goes to make the nation
richer. Wagon roads are the
foundation of community's foun-
dation and growth
Father McCabe spoke upon
Optimism of the Soul on Build
ing Good Roads" In part he
said: I'VE enjoy today and are
honored by the presence Of A
MAN-not the governor or a great
lawyer-but A MAN. Having
with us Governor Slaton is an
honor and an inspiration to our
little city. His handshake is 60
ing to do us good"
MUST BE ON MAIN MAP OF LINCOLN
HIGHWAY
Father McCabe says that the
main Lincoln map does not, as
promised, include Colorado. He
wishes the Midland trail to be as
well known as the great Lincpa
highway in every state in the un-
ion and he relies that there must
be cooperation in Colorado to ac-
complish this feat.
Father Schuler, bishop-elect Of
Ell Paso, Texas, said that this was
his first trip up the canon in sew
eral years. though this county had
been his home for many years.
In 1876, Georgetown was a live
little burg and the speaker was
one of the livest little fellows there.
He said, II have always been
proud of Georgetown and Clear
Creek county, and never prouder
than now, having heard SO many
beautiful true things said of this
section
Fred job nson, toastmaster, said
that next year Denver would tax
herself about 100000 to be used
for road building outside OF Den
yer. He prophesies that next
year the capacity of the Hot
Springs hotel will have to be dou-
bled, and that the same thing will
recurr with each succeeding year,
for the auto travel to Idaho
Springs has only just begun.

Distinguished Visitors
Laud City and State

The pretty green and gold din
ing room of the Hot Springs hotel,
made especially bright with dahl
las and gladioli, was fit setting
for the luncheon rendered the
Denver Chamber of Commerce by
the hotel management last Satur-
day. Ex-Governor and Mrs. Sla-
ton of Georgia and Ex-Governor
Ammons of Colorado were espe-
cially invited guests and repre-
sentative body of Idaho Springs
ladies' and gentlemen completed a
gathering which would have, a
few years ago, been perhaps bit
unusual in our mountain beauty
spot.
Fred johnson, yice-president of
the Denver Chamber of Com
merce was master of ceremonies,
and after a most delicious lunch
con. acknowledged in graceful
wav that the dedication of the
spacious hotel dining room, which
had inspired the occasion, would
from then on be taken as ample
assurance that Denver will always
be able to find something to eat
in Idaho Springs and something
of unusual merit. He then intro
duced the most distinguished
guest, Ex-Governor Slaton OF
Georgia.
SURPRISED AT FERTILITY OF COLO
RADIOS VALLEYS
This true southern gentleman
spoke of our beauties as only his
fellow men can. It is an art born
into them and cannot be attained.
He said he would not attempt to
speak upon the local conditions.
He told of a gentleman from Wis
consin trying to force Berkshire
hogs upon a southern farmer,
knowing of their superiority over
the native razor-back. But the
farmer, knowing local peculiari-
ties. told him that their hogs
must be raised for speed to out
run the nigger. So the speaker
tried to confne his remarks to
things of general character such
as our gracious sunshine, our grand
mountains. our vast products. our
beautiful children, our advanced
schools and churches, all of which
enioyed on a former visit had
compelled him to come again.
But this particular trip surprised
him as to the fertility of the val
lev out of Denver, for he had un-
derstood that there was consider
able trouble with our water sup
ply.
