President Wilson was brought
forward yesterday as the chief

in their fight to have the wartime
prohibition and Volstead enforce

The Supreme Court was told
that the President had nulli6ed the
emergency dry law when he de-

gress that the purposes for which
the act had been passed had been

IDAHO SPRINGS, COLO. FRIDAY AUGUST q
Boston Men Interested

Samuel Klous, of Boston, Mass,
spent few days in our city last
week, and during the time he
visited and inspected some of the
mines in the Argentine district.
Mr.. Klous was for some time a
resident of Colorado, and was in
terested in mining at Brecken
ridge, Leadville and other places
thruout the state, and is no novice
nor tenderfoot in the business.
Mr.. Klous represents strong
syndicate of Boston capitalists
who are looking for something in
the mining line worthy of invest
ment and to find a suitable prop
erty, their representative comes
to Clear Greek county. just what
will be the result of his visit here,
can only be surmised at the pres
ent time, but as he expressed
himself as being well pleased with
the showing made in the various
properties inspected, and also pre-
dicted a big revival 10 the mining
business, especially silver and
copper, it is safe to predict some
thing of Importance will happen
in the near future.

cause, Mrs. Shaffer, who was driv-

and it elm bed the steep bank and
turned over Mr.. Shaffer escaped
uninjured, but Mrs. Shaffer suffer-
ed broken jaw and severe bruises
about the body. Mr.. Pool was
injured in the back.
DR.. Atcheson was summoned to
the scene of the wreck and brought
the party to the Club hotel in
this city. where DR.. Fraser was
called in conference. Both Mrs.

The Idaho Tunnel
Rehabilitated

The Idaho Tunnel and several
of the mines on Seaton mountain
connected with it. have been taken
over under lease and option by
Tom j. Johnston of this city, and
is now being cleaned out and re-
timbered where needed, and other
wise put in first class condition.
Among the properties acquired in
this deal are such well known, old
time producers as the Metropoli
tan, Kangaroo, Casino, Interocean,
Idaho Bride, and several others,
making thirteen different veins in
the group, all of which can be
worked thru the tunnel.
Owing to the fact that no work
has been done on some of the
veins for several years, the drifts
in some places are caved, which
necessitates time and expense to
put in condition for work. In
some places there has been good
ore exposed where the caves have
occurred, and as soon as the drifts
are cleared men are put to work
taking this ore out. Only a small
force of men are employed at the
present, but as the work progresses
the force will be increased as the
occasion demands. Mr.. Johnston
is one of our real live wires in the
mining business, and has unbound
ed faith in the mines of the dis
trict, and is not afraid to spend
his time and money in further de-
velopment. If we only had a few
more Tom Johnstons' in this COM
munity, there would be more work
in the mines, and less kicking,
growing and cussin'.

Ute Creek Mines
To Be ReOpened

T. E. Ryan, retired attorney
OF St. Louis, Mo-, is guest OF
our city this week. Mr.. Ryan,
has taken over the. M. and M.
mines on Ute creek, and has COM
menced to put the main shaft in
working order for extensive de-
velopment at once. The work
will be in charge of Kirk E. See
mann, an experienced and practi-
cal mining man, who formerly
operated the Humboldt mine,
which adjoins the M. and M. pro-
perty This property is located
in the very best mineral bearing
zone in the county, and has in the
past produced some very good ore,
and is yet but little more than a
mere prospect, SO far as big mines
go. The first work will be to un-
water the shaft, and retimber if
needed, and then the levels will
be driven, and the real work of
taking out ore begun. The mine
is equipped with good plant of
machinery and it will not be many
days before everything is in ready
for business. We expect to have
good news to report from this
