From Old Clear Creek

Benjamin A. Holley will attempt
to recruit company of soldiers
from this community. Mr.. Holley
is well qualified for this purpose,
being a veteran of the Spanish
American war and having seen
service in the Philippines. He
knows the requirements of being a
defender of the nation and "Old
Glory. In this laudable UNDER
taking Mr.. Hollcy deserves and
will no doubt have the encourage
ment and aid of every true Ameri-
can citizen in the county. Now is
the time for our young men who
are eligible for service to prove
their loyalty to their country and
their home. Don't wait for the
other fellow to beat you to it, but
get there first and show the world
that you are true, genuine, red

time she professed peace. Three
years ago the mask was thrown
aside and Germany brought out
her horrible machine, crushing
helpless Belgium and driving on
almost to Paris. Now, however,
she has backed gradually to
stand where we hope that by our
own help her line will be smashed.
Mr.. Mytton said that this will not
be war for ourselves alone, but a
blow for world freedom, for Ger
nfany as well as the rest of the
world. From this war should rise
a new Germany-a democracy.
The speaker concluded by saying
that it is no longer question of
war or peace, but, as we are in war,
our call is to prepare. Citing the
fact that in larger cities men are
drilling, he believes that head
quarters should be established in
the city hall, in charge of Guy
Arkills, and Idaho Springs made
able to send message to our pres.
ident, Idaho Springs is ready.
All through his address Mr.. Myt-
ton was literally appIauded.

of young girls finally saluting

SPRINGS, COLO, FRIDAY APRIL 1s, sIF
Spills First War Blood
In Idaho Springs

The first war blood shed in Ida
no Springs on account of the war
was spilled in the Argo tunnel
last Tuesday when a friend of the
German Kaiser attempted to tear
the Stars and Stripes from the
motor operated by Charlie Hull.
The act SO aroused Hull's fighting
blood that he swung out his strong
right arm and landed it on the
perpetrator, causing the "claret"
to flow freely.
1t is reported that the party
afterwards declared that he meant
no insult to the flag but had acted
unthoughtedly. He will perhaps
be more guarded in the future, as
the act of tearing down or in any
way defaming the emblem of free
dom and justice is crime and
subject to severe punishment by
either local or federal authorities.

Citizens TO Protect
Explosive Supply

At a meeting of business men
held in the city hall Wednesday
evening steps were taken to safe
guard the powder and dynamite
supply of Idaho Springs and pre-
vent its appropriation by design
ing persons or in case of internal
difficulties.
The improper use of only a por-
ton of the large supply of high
explosives stored here would be a
very serious menace not only to
Idaho Springs but to other COM
munities where tunnels might be
wrecked, bridges blown and untold
disaster wrought.
A protective association was Or
ganized and a committee of safety
appointed. A guard house will be
erected at the powder magazine on
Chicago creek and all explosives
will be kept in the one place ex-
cept what is needed from day to
day. Electric lights will surround
the magazine and a telephone will
be at the constant disposal of the
guards who will be on duty at
night.
The city will also replace AL
Straub as day marshal as further
protection.

County Objects TO Road
Fund Distribution

Clear Greek county has once
again been made the goat" by the
state highway commission in their
distribution of moneys to be spent
on the various state highways.
The amount allotted to this county
is $4,000. to be met with an equal
amount of county money, making
a total of $1,000 to be expended.
OF this 5000, the sum of Sc, 800
must be spent on construction
work at a certain place desig-
mated by the highway commission
on the Berthoud Pass road
leaving balance of $14OO for
maintenance of all the highways
within the county.
From the one-mill levy voted
for good roads Clear Greek county
would be entitled to $500. This
money is remitted by the county
treasurer to the state treasurer, SO
the sum really allotted to this
county is only $500, of state mon
ey. Yet, to obtain this $500, the
county ommissioners must add
to it s., 100 of fcounty-raised money
and spend the $500 at a place
designated by Highway Commits
sioner Ehrhart, who doesn't even
seek the advise of the county
commissioners as to their views
and opinions on the locality where
the money could be used to the
greatest advantage of both county
and state.
The county commissioners, to-
gether with County Attorney Err
win =. Regennitter, will go down
to Denver to discuss the situation
with the highway commissioners
with view Of obtaining a larger
state appropriation for this county
and the opportunity to improve
other much travelled roads of the
