difficulties to a firm business footing,
and preliminary tirrmixonieutD are al

men put tlmir money iu the busing
and puiohusud stock, and aftorwaru
Campbell and Alsxaudur withdrew
their subscriptions for stock in tho
corporation and refused to pay over
the money, because of the forced re
tirement of Mr. Alexander from the
Portland field on account of ill health.
In the meantime plans had been made
by Mr. Bagby and his associates for
an enlargement of the business. The
mill was moved from Needy to Au

An Editor's Opinion of Royal Gorge.
Edyth T.ozier Weather red, in des
cribing a recent trip over the Denver
& Rio Grande Railroad, says in "The
Exposition:" v
'"At last the goal of the ambition
of years has been readied mar vn Ions,
wonderful, grand and inspiring Roval
Gorge is on either hand. The only
disappointing thing is you only have
one pair of eyes, while the train durts
in and out of the tremendous chasm.
If any who have never seen it are
wondering how it looks just go and
see. Thousands have tried to des
cribe it, yet every attempt falls short
of giving the subject justice."
