More Furnished
Houses Needed Here

In spite of the fact that there
are empty houses in Idaho Springs,
there are calls nearly every day for
furnished houses. 1t was only a
few days ago that a family wrote
for "well'' furnished house, but
it was impossible to find one that
would answer the request. Most
of the people coming heresdemand
more than just barely enough to
scamp with. 1t would be good
investment, it is thought by those
who know, for someone who has
the means to furnish few houses
The majority Of the tourists are
willing to pay if they can only get
what they want. A man said few
days ago, if he owned a number of
little shacks here that were not
bringing enough money to pay the
taxes, he would tear them down
and put up half as many modern
and up-to. date bungalows and fur
nish them nicely. Those houses
would no doubt be rented at a
good price the year round.

DENVER MACHINE
FIRES SUPPORTERS
OF NICHOLSON
Employees of Leadville Candi-
date Are Dropped Regardless of
Their Efficiency Records; All
Are Good, Clean, Able Men.
Special to Siftings News.

Special to Siftings News.
Denver, July 30.-City employees
who favor Sam ID. Nicholson of
Leadville for the Republican NOM
ination as United States senator
must lose their jobs, regardless of
their record for efficiency. That
is the edict of the Denver city hall
machine. which is devoting its en-
tire efforts in furthering the inter
ests of the Midwest Standard Oil
candidate, one of it's builders.
In carrying out this edict, the
following city hall employees have
been dropped in the last few days:
Jacob l.. Foreman, bookkeeper in
the department of parks and i'm
provements: Sam Feldman, con-
stable; and Thomas F. Dillon, Sec
retary to the manager of parks and
improvements. All these men were
discharged because they refused
to circulate pledge cards for the
Standard Oil senatorial candidate.
"We are for Sam Nicholson for
the senate" they announced, and
their immediate discharge fol-
lowed.
All are ready to prove their eff
cheney as city hall employees. Field
man has letters from several score
of lawyers testifying to the fact
that he was the most efficient con-
stable ever employed in Magistrate
Bray's court.
Foreman, another of the victims
of city ball STANDARD Oil politics,
is married and the father of FIVE
children, one of whom has been
paralyzed since she was baby.
He is member Of the bookkeep-
ers' union, the machinists' union,
local No. IA, and the federal en-
ployes' union.
None of these men attended
drunken picnic given by supporters
Of the Standard Oil candidate on
the Morrison road last week, in
which gallons of confscated liquor,
so report says, was distributed in
an effort to Zine up" all city en-
ployes against Sam Nicholson.

Married a Year;
Just Made Public

Who said women can't keep a
secret? 1t has been proved that
they can time and again, and an
absolute demonstration has been
made of the fact right here in our
own town.
Miss Eva Cameron, one of Idaho
Springs popular telephone oper-
ators, may safely be entrusted with
the most profound secrets. At any
rate, she has kept one for whole
year.
On July 26, 1919, by DR.. H. S.
Beavis, pastor of the Presbyterian
church of this city, she was united
in marriage to Albert Wall in the
lefty of Denver. Although it was
suspicioned by some of their init
i niate friends, the fact was made
public only few days ago.
Mrs. Wall is the daughter of
Mrs. Laura Cameron. and was born
and raised in idaho Springs. For
fourteen years she had been en-
ployed at the telephone office,
being chief operator for the past
seven years. She is now on her
vacation and will remain with her
work here until all the operators
shall have had their vacations.
Mr.. Wall was 'strouble man" at
the telephone exchange here and
was later sent to Castle Rock as
manager Of the exchange there,
and in that little city the couple
will make their home.
Both young people are we'll
known here and have the best
wishes of host of friends for a
happily welded life, and are com
pletely forgiven for the years de-
ception if they will promise mot
to let it occur again"
