Trust Representation

Editor of the Observer:
A recent dispatch from Wash
ington informs us that our Sena-
tor Phipps has presented in the
U. S. senate a protest against the
Kenyon bill which has for it's pur-
pose the investigation of the
packers trust and its relation to
the present high cost of living.
A great deal of just complaint
is heard regarding high prices
but really the voters of Colorado
should be the very last to squeal.
Senator Phipps is one of the
U. S. Steel Corporations largest
holders and all of his interest
and sympathy is naturally toward
and for the big interests and be
it said to his credit that he did
not deny it, so we knew just
where he stood before election.
and knew that he would repres-
ent the trusts first, last and all
the time.
With this full knowledge it be-
hooves us to take our medicine
end not try to shift our response
bility on to some one it does not
belong to.
There is no law as inflexible or
inexorable as the law of compen-
sation. It is first mentioned in
the bible in that famous passage
which says, "As a man sows, so
also shall he reap"
Respectfully,

uncle, Richard C. Lake, at his
home in Evanston, Illinois.

tinguished members of the Mas
onic order. He was a charter
member of Central City Chapter

A ROAD THE STATE
SHOULD BUILD
Tourists Would Have a One-Day
Trip From Denver Unsurpassed
in the Entire West.

With the enormous sum of mon
ey available this year and next
for the extension of the good
roads movement in Colorado, the
State Highway Commission should
not overlook the so-called State
road going from Elk park into
Tolland. This road is only a few
miles long but is an important
link in what would be one of the
most extensively travelled high
ways in the state, if little mon
ey was spent in widening it and
putting it in shape for auto travel.
The completion of this road
would give the valley motorists
and eastern tourists one-day
loop trip. over route of scenic
grandeur unsurpassed in the en-
tire western country. The route
would take them from Denver to
Boulder, up the celebrated Bould-
er canon road to Nederland, then
to Rollinsville, up the beautiful
five-mile drive to Tolland, up
Mammoth canon and thru Elk
park where the attractiveness of
old James peak can be viewed in
all its majestic splendor.
Returning the trip takes the
tourist thru the most historic
county in Colorado, passing thru
Apex, on to Central and Black
Hawk, over seven miles of an
auto road in constant view of a
long range of mountains to the
top of Dory hill. From here the
homeward trip could be made
either thru Rollinsville and back
by Boulder canon or over the Guy
hill road into Golden and then on
to Denver. Or the return trip
could be made by going six miles
from Central to Idaho Springs.
down the Lookout mountain road
to Golden and Denver.
The foregoing is the log of a
mountain trip that would carry
the motorist thru panorama Of
scenic delightfulness that nature
outdid herself in providing for
the eyes of man to feast upon, and
this road above all should COM
mend itself to the attention of
the Highway Commission.

Payment of Automobile
License Compulsory

The test of the automobile law
in Colorado has resulted in the
legality Of the law being upheld.
Automobile owners must pay a Ii
cense on the vehicles, says the
state supreme court. And so those
who have been holding out for
some three or four years in the
hope that Mr.. Ard would win his
case can now come along with the
money that they have long with
held and square accounts with the
state.
When the automobile license
law went into effect some years
ago, few believed in the justness
of the law, altho the great major
ity paid the fee rather than en-
gage in law suit. Mr.. Ard, look
ing at it as great many others
did, declined to come across and
in conjunction with others decid-
ed to submit the case to the courts
in a friendly suit. Mr.. Ard allow
ed himself to be arrested and fin
ed for violating the law, and the
lower court sustained the judg-
ment. It was carried to the su-
preme court and now that tribunal
says that the law is proper.
From now on there will be a
rush to secure licenses by those
who have heretofore withheld
their donations to the state. Ac-
cording to the state authorities
Logan county has been the hot
bed of protest against enforce
ment of the law. However fur
ther fight would be useless ex-
penditure of energy. = Sterling

The dance given in the Armory
hall last Friday evening by the
young fellows of the town drew
a very good attendance from the
county, Idaho Springs and Neder-
land. The music furnished by
the Idaho Springs orchestra was
all that could be desired and
pleased the dancers immensely.
Notwithstanding the heavy ex-
pense. the boys broke a little bet
ter than even, which was very
satisfactory to them as the dance
was given more with the desire
that it be a social rather than a
financial success.

FISH CLUB PROMISED
MORE TROUT FRY
Beaver Dams in Boulder Park
Will Also Be Torn Out to Let
Fish Into Main Stream.

Sheriff R. A. Bass, president of
the Gilpin County Game & Fish
club, is in receipt of the follow
ing letter from r. G. Parvin,
State Game & Fish Commissions err.
1t is of interest to the fishermen
of the county, hence the Observer
publishes it:
"My dear Mr.. Bass:
Senator Fincher delivered
your applications for trout fry
this morning, and same are filed
with notation for liberal allot-
ment. With reference to the fish
in the retaining ponds, l should
prefer to leave this matter to your
judgment, as you being on the
spot and familiar with weather
conditions would be the best judge
of the time for liberation. If you
want man to assist let me know
in time so that we can arrange to
send someone, but l am sure you
will be in better position to do
this work, or have it done, than
anyone not familiar with local
conditions. 1 will leave it entire
ly to you, and. meanwhile you
might advise me your views and
suggestions, and shall be glad
to make any necessary arrange
ments at this end. This work will
probably come at time when we
are short of men, and l would not
want the work delayed until the
ponds are frozen up. Should be
glad to hear from you on this, and
to know if you are willing to un-
dertake the supervision of the lib
GRAFTON of the fry.
"This department has not made
any particular ruling as to which
time fishermen should go by, bu;
l feel that the intention of the
law was from a to $3.50 old time
or standard time and our ward
ems have been so instructed. In
thus recognizing the old time, we
allow fishing until $3.50 new time.
There seems to be no question as
to the time for beginning in the
morning-we have not had an in
qufry in this regard, but the fish
erman who begins fishing at 4
o'clock new time would be fishing
at 3 o'clock old time. While we
would consider this a little un-
reasonable, we would hardly ar
rest man for going by either
time. l feel that the question of
which time to abide by will be
settled by the fisherman accord
ing to his own conscience, and
that in any event it is beyond my
province to decide which time is
correct. 1t is generally under
stood that one may fish until 9 $50
new time.
please call upon me for any
information or assistance desired,
and l shall be glad to furnish
same if it is possible to do so.
Thanking you for your coopera-
tion, l am.
yours very truly,
"R. G. PARVIN."

New Freight Rates Mean
Raise on Low Grade Ore

Manager w. E. Pasmore yester-
day received the following letter
in regard to the new freight rate
which goes into effect July 21st,
from G. A. Marsh, superintendent
of the A. S. & R. Pueblo plant:
Referring to my letter of the
18th inst. advising that the new
thru freight rates on ores from
points north of Denver to Pueblo
are to be effective July 21st,
am in receipt of a copy of the
amendment quoting these rates.
1t is noted, however, that the val
uation clause covering movement
of material from Silver Plume,
Georgetown, Idaho Springs and
other narrow gauge points in that
district is based on actual gross
value which differs from the
present tariff, which provides for
gross value less the freight and
treatment. AS a result of this
change in wording, it practically
nullifies the rate on material un-
der $500 gross value, as it is out
of the question to ship material
of this grade.
II called the attention of the
Secretary of the Denver District
Freight Traffic Committee to this
change, and he maintains it is in
accordance with the memoran-
dunn received from the commit
tee. Vey truly yours,
Originally signed by)
EDWIN ANDERSON"
From the tenor of the above
letter, someone has made a griev-
GUS mistake, as the object for
which the committee was labor
ing was to get as low rate as
possible on low grade ores, and
the mistake will have the effect
of putting several shippers from
this district out of business. 1t
eveidently was unintentional on
the part of the committee, but
that does not help the shipper,
and it will take some time to have
the error corrected.-The Idaho
Springs Gazette.
