LEAVE FOR PITTSBURG

Not only were the students and

bye 20 Dr. and Mrs. Kelley, on their
leaving for Pittsburg, IA, but large
numbers Of the townspeople $50
took occasion TO give a last hanhclasp
to this lady and gentleman. who for
five years have made their home with
US, engaged in n great work of build
ing up the Normal Incidentally they
have taken a large part in all public
activities, not alone of schooi. hut of
church, society and the up-building of
commercial life. II is n belief of DR..
Kelley, that no one can be success
ful teacher who does not enter fully
into the life of the community. and
he consistently put his teaching into
practice.
We shall miss his active hand and
mind, and the culture and interest in
public affairs taken by Mrs. Kelley
as well. We wish them the best OF
success in the new field, one that is
larger, but we are sure not more in
teresting than life in the Rockies. nor
one in which their talents will be

latter. This feeling produced sprt
of cooperation, and It VAS suggested
that our section of the state and the
Durango section prepare data for sub
mission 10 the Railroad Commission
that the governor will soon appoint
This data should cover the approx
mate cost Of the tunnels, the saving of
freight, the business Immediately
available, the probable amount of
new business TO be developed by the
tunnels, and IN general covering the
benefit the tunnels would be- 10 the
state. In connection il vas suggested
that unless our tunnel was built, the
Western Slope business would grafu-
ally grayitate TO Salt Lake and thus
Pueblo and the A kansas Valley would
lose much trade that they might
otherwise have from Us
Il was also made very plain at the
meeting that the great railroad in
,erests had plans to develop the thru
lines TO the north and south Of Colora-
do. and that unless the state blocked
these plans. We would BE- left on spur
lines and our business development
greatly retarded =,
AFTER the meeting and during all
the next day We had long conferences
with Mr. William Evans, Ex-Governor
Carlson, Mr.. Gwyn, chief engineer of
the Rio Grande, A. +. Reynolds and
others, and il is our opinion that even
II the Moffat tunnel is nov defeated,
IL will in some way be built, that the
Dotsero cutoff will then be built,
which will give the Rio Grande a
short line 20 Grand Junction, and
that therefore we shall be left on q
narrow gauge road for many years
to- come. We therefore believe that
we should 20 vigorously after the
