NEW OFFICERS OF
STATE SWORN IN

At high twelve yesterday, in the
legislative, chamber of the capitol of
Denver, in the presence of an as
sembly that filled every aisle and
corner of the room, julius c. Gunter,
took the oath of office of the state
of Colorado, administered by the
chief justice Of the supreme bench.
The other state officers also had
their oaths of office administered ac-
cording to rank. Governor Gunter
then delivered his message that treats
largely with legislative apportionment
of ample monies to successfully keep
our state institutions running, includ-
ing that of state colleges. He also
went on record as being an advocate
, OF good roads. He also spoke of the
crampled quarters of the state Of
ficers and hinted at the enlargement
of the capitol, as we'll as recommend
ing the purchase of lots, while Den
yer real estate is low, for the future
erection of governors mansion. He
also called attention to the abuses
of the initiative and referendum, and
primary laws. and called upon the
I legislature to remedy them by sane
and sensible amendments.
| The entire staff of state officials
with the exception of one Judge, is
Democratic, as well as boh branches
of the legislature, and it depends up
on their stewardship and wise legis
lation, whether the party retains its
present hold upon the voter in 1918
The Observer believes that the new
state officials are the best selected
In years, and we hope that our pres
ent coed opinion may never be turn
ed awry.

DEATH OF MRS. MURPHY

Mrs. Margaret L. Murphy, died in
Denver on January 9th, of cerebral
hemorrhage. She was about so years
of age and leaves two sons and one
daughter. The remains were brought
to Central Tuesday morning and bur.
led in Catholic cemetery in the fam
lily lot where rest the remains Of the
husband and children.
The Murrhys for years were resi-
dents of Black Hawk and prior to
removing to Denver, Mrs. Murphy
was proprietress of the old Colorado
house. Mrs. Murphy was a native OF
Ireland and possessed the noble char
acteristics and big heartedness Of the
Irish race. She was q woman highly
respected by her neighbors and be-
loved by friends. The news Of her
death ELECTED many expressions OF
sorrow among old acquaintance in
the county. Mrs. Murphy was a sis
ter of Patrick Lynch. of Denver, and
H. F. Lynch Of Black Hawk.

STOCK POOLS AND THE
SALE OF POOL RIGHTS

Under the law of Arizona the fin
ancing of corporations is placed un-
der the supervision of corporation
commission. The issuance and sale
of treasury stock requires a permit
from the state authorities. One as
pect Of the law is the control of pool
ed stock by the corporation commits
sion, in response TO a long-recogniz-
ed theory that the treasury require
ments of a development company
should be satisfied before any organ
izers' stock can be sold. Pooled
shares are those which are tied up
in trust for period sufficient to
protect the treasury sales of the COM
pany, and they are not transferable
on the stock books. Nevertheless,
the holder of pooled stock does not
lose any of his rights of ownership
beyond that Of transfer, and any val
ue accruing from this stock while 1t
is in pool belongs to him. When the
to the respective owners. There may
be occasions when the owner of stock
in pool feels 1t necessary to private
ly negotiate this stock by assigning
his rights to some other rerson for
consideration. but such a transac-
! ton does not constitute a market ac-
tivity which defeats the primary pur-
pose of the pool. 1t is only when
pool rights become subject of active
trading in the open market that the
suggestion of illegitimacy arises. II
is certainly a very questionable prac-
tice to advertise the sale of pool
rights as a regular business, because
the Arizona law contemplates the sup
preston Of the right Of sale during
the pooling period. An example OF
such an evasion Is brought to our no
tice in the form of a circularized Of
fering of pool rights at 1870 reduc-
ton from the price of listed stock.
Such an offering is an admission that
the speculative value of the pool
stock possesses only questionable
foundation; the practice is one which
throws the entire enterprise under
suspicion, while at the same time
bringing the corporation law into
contempt. The Arizona corporation
commission can hardly prevent the
private assignment of equities ir
stocks, but it can at least take steps
to prevent or discourage this mora
violation of the Mining Am
erican.

WHEATRIDGE DEBATE

On Friday, January 10, at p. M,
at the Presbyterian church there will
be held a rousing debate between the
debating teams of the Wheatridge
high school and Gilpin county Union
high school, but little interest has
been taken in debating in Central
City or in fact. in the high schools
Of the entire state until about three
years. At that time at the instiga-
ticn Of the English department Of
the University of Colorado a State
Debating League was formed. The
debate to be held here is under the
auspices Of this league. Our local de-
baters are Clarence Anger, Margaret
Grutzmacher and Ruth Tomlinson.
The question for debate Is, Resolv-
ed That the United States should
provide system of subsidies for the
protection of American merchant mar
ine."
Because OF the necessary expense
attached to such contest we are
going to charge an admission fee of
25 cents and we hope to have the
church filled by our loyal supporters,

Col. w. F. Cody, Buffalo Bill" the
famous Indian fighter and scout. died
in Denver yesterday. Col. Cody was
a familiar figure about Central in the
early days. being one Of the old stage
drivers. The Observer editor met
and had a pleasant talk with this dis
tingu!shed character in Denver two
years ago, when the old scout waxed
reminiscent and recalled many inter-
esting happenings in this vicinity half
century or more ago. Col. Cody
was very young man when he
drove stage into Central and had
not at that time won fame as an ex-
pert rifle shot and buffalo hunter. He
will be remembered as one OF the
most historic characters Of frontier
times. rN

The business men announce that
they will close their stores at p.
m, commencing the 18th. excepting
Saturdays. This is good innova-

need of grocery or butcher shop
remaining open, when all other lines
of business had ceased for the day.
Years ago it was the custom for
merchants to keep their places open
until or O'Clock for the accommo-
dalton of the stragglers, but since
modern ideas have come into practice
this class finds it as much to their
convenience to do their trading in
the day time as at night.

This shows unexpected possibilities

and when so >ailing become weak, help
less sufferers. But remedy has been
found. For forty years, Lydia E. Pink
