Why Colds Are to Be Dreaded.

1t is not the coldsitself but the SER
ious diseases it so often leads to that
makes a common cold by far the most
dangerous of any of the minor all
ments. The cold prepares your system
for the reception and development of
the germs Of pneumonia, consumption,
diphtheria and other germ diseases.
The quicker you cure the cold the less
the danger. To accomplish this you
will find Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
most effectual. Obtainable everywhere.

MANY ACCEPTED SERVICE.

1t is known positively today that it
has been from these men-chiefly re-
servists of younger years-that Boy
Ed and Won Papen drew material for
their work of spying and intrigue
against this government.
While it is known by officials that
many of these men refused to do the
bidding of Germany's masters in
America many did fall before the
temptation of gold and promises of
high reward in the event of war be-
tween the two countries.
Another NEST of platters" was Ger
many's consular service in America.
Such aliens as had close connection
with the kaiser's consular agents and
who cannot satisfactorily explain those
connections, are to be arrested at the
first suspicious action.

While the chase is hot and will con-
tinue to be relentlessly carried on
against any alien suspected of afford
ing aid and comfort to the nations enc
mics, officials again today repeated
their declaration that well behaving"
aliens need have no apprehension that
they will be molested.
Chief interest at this time centers on
men who have long been trailed and
card indexed because of their asso-
Citations with the plotters' ring estab-
lished in various sections of the coun-
try by Captains won Papen and Boy
Ed.
While department of justice and Sc
cret agents work in deepest secrecy,
refusing for obvious reasons to dis
close even facts of arrests that have
been made, it is taken for granted that
another chief objective in the hunt is
to keep war time watch on the bounds
of German reservists here who were
unable to answer the call TO colors that
sounded in 1914.

A SUGGESTION

We are reliably informed that the
deal between the bcndhclders OF the
Gilpin tramway ard the Denver par
ties, who were reported to have pur'
chased the road for junk has been
called off and that this is now an
open proposition.
1t is our impression that the Met
al Miners association n and others In
terested have before them an excel
lent opportunity to look into and
probably bring about deal that
would be a most direct and effective
benefit to every citizen of Gilpir
county.
Could not President Sayre call q
meeting Of the Metal Miners asso
citation, appoint committee to &c
into the details with the bondholders
and see just what can be done? Nc
doubt the road could be taken ovel
with a very small layout OF cash and
with the co-operatiIn of the meta
miners this read could again be put
IN operation in the very near future
Let US at least look into this prop
osition. A. b. G.
