Rinie Ludwig in Auto Accident.

Monday evening of last week,
as Il. Ludwig was proceeding to-
wards his home in his Ford run
about machine, accs panied by
his cousin, the machine prccipi-
tated both occupants OF the car
into the large Church canal. 1t
is not exactly known whether the
front axle broke or whether one
of the front wheels threw a tire;
at any rate, at the high rate of
speed at which the machine was
travelling. it was practically to-
tai wreck when recovered from
the ditch.
Mr. Ludwig was thrown, his
head striking the cement bridge,
lying prone for fifteen minutes
before help came, when he was
rushed to st. Luke's hospital in
Denver. where the serious wounds
were attended to. and but little
hopes entertained of his recovery.
He had been a resident Of Gold
en- for three years and is the cid
est son OF Albert Ludwig, living
a few miles east of Broomficld.
He was married three years ago
to Miss ioungbaugh, of Golden,
and was superintendent of The
Farmers Ilighlinc Reservoir and
Canal company, and was respect
cd by all who knew him.
Immediately upon his arrival
in St l.ukc's, Miss Patricia Hat
field, trained nurse, gave him
first aid. but the attending physi
clan claimed no hope for his re
covery.

From the Colorado State Il
Board of immigration.

The Colorado State Board of
immigration has just issued a
booklet on the mineral resources
of the state, which is to be dis
tributed to persons contemplating
investments here in mining, quar-
rying or in other development of
Colorado's vast mineral wealth.
This publication is not a tech
nical treatise on mining and met
allurgy or an inquiry into the
geology of the state or of any
district. 1t is merely a directory
of mineral resources, with brief
history of mining development in
various branches. 1t has been
compiled from official sources,
has been carefully edited and re-
vised and every effort has been
made to include all the useful in
formation about the states min
eral resources that is available
consistent with the limited space
available.
The tables giving output of the
principal metals have been COM
piled from reports of the United
States Geological Survey and the
State Bureau of Mines. Stats
tics of production of coal are from
the Geological Survey records and
from those of the State Coal Mine
Inspector, while the figures on
petroleum output are from the
State Oil Inspector and the Geo
logical Survey. Data regarding
the development of other non
metal deposits have been obtain
cd from the reports of the State
Geologist and the United States
Geological Survey.
Special care has been given to
the preparation of a brief direc-
tory of the mineral resources Of
the various counties, which is the
last subject treated in the book.
Since new discoveries of minerals
are being made constantly it is
hardly possible that the st as
published is complete, bSt the
Board will take special aims to
keep records of all neo discov-
cries and will give them proper
attention in subsequent issues.

Der business, having a yard at
Tecumseh, Nebr., which he sold
and came to Colorado, about rs
years ago, on account of his wife's

Town Election Near;
Candidates Scarce

The time for the town election
is rapidly approaching. So far
we have heard very little talk of
candidates for either place and
no one seems to be "hankering
for the opportunity of getting in
where their acts will be criticised
regardless of how faithfully they
try to perform their duty. No
difference which way you turn,
you cannot please them all. In
sist on having the laws obeyed
and you will Immediately find
that someone is against you on
that proposition. Allow them to
be violated and you will also find
opposition. There is a good ar
gument for the commission fern
of government brought, Is mind
every day in the fact that the
men then selected to run the af-
Airs of the town are paid EEK
pressly for that purpose. That is
their job and they are not ham,

men to say that they will if

fairs" but it is hard to find them
so enthusiastic on that PROPOSE
ton after they are once in office.
Only those who have had ex-
perience on a town board, or
other public institutions in times
of stress such as Arvada has had
the past two months, knows what
such = position means.
There will be three members
Of the town board to be elected
for two years this spring, and a
Mayor. The hold-overs on the
board are Gorich. Munal and Mo
