employees and others who have made
livings through the manufacture and
sale of intoxicating liquors are going

should appropriate about 100000 and
build some good roads throughout the
state with these pathetic job hunters

er received samples of ore from the
Morning Glory claim, near Fulford, in
Eagle county, located late last fall by
John A. Story and John Weiskopf. The
ore is an iron stained quartz, and is

whoop. Just why an advertising
agency that is supposed to do business
strictly on commission, should fail, does

In fine, this nation has little call to
bust itself over some one going through
waters of the war zone and getting shot
up or drowned. The man who does it
knows that he is taking the largest
kind of chances, and to prevent breach.
