Houses Scarce,

The scarcity of houses this spring is
more in evidence than for some years
past. The houses that rent for from six
to eight dollars per month, are more in
demand than any others and those who
have neglected renting are willing now
to take anything. Unless more dwell
ings are built a number of families will
have to board after April 1st.

Will There Be
An Extra Session?

Judge Riner Of the U. 8. Federal
Court at Denver, has decided that
the state board Of Assessors, as pro-
vided for by the last session Of the
legislature, has no power to make
assessments, and that part Of said
law 10 unconstitutional. But that
all other parts of said law arc in full
force. AS the assessment of the rail.
roads and other state corporations
was made by this board, and as un-
der this decision they will escape tax
alton, it would seem to be wisdom on
the part OF Gov. Orman, to call a
special session of the Legislature at
once to make all necessary leglsla-
ton on the question of the states
revenues.

INA RECENT letter from Mr.. John
B. Riach of Hebron, he writes that
Emmett Lee, in hauling hay from
Riach's field Dec. 30, scared up o
drove of eleven gray wolves that ran
outside the fence and laid down.
Lee returned home, took o gun and
followed them, killing one and wound
ing another. Mr. Riach thinks it
would be good idea for stockmen
to join in subscription or some
other plan, and make war on the
wolves until they are destroyed. Sew
eral small drovcs have been recently
seen by others in the vicinity Of
Riach's place, and Of course, wolves
must have something to eat. Some
body's herd suffers loss every few
nights. At the coming stockmcn's
meeting, would ho good time to
discuss plans and make provisions
for war ON wolves. The UNION hopes
some successful method will be
adopted to rid the Park of this great
pest to stockmen.

Terrible Injury ro
A Lumber Hauler.

On Thursday forenoon, as Chas.
Bulls, a laboriag man Of Pearl, Colo
RADIO, was coming down Owl creek
hill with a four horse load of lumber
enrouts to Pearl, the binding pole Of
the load broke so a. to knock him
off the wagon and wheel of the
heavily loaded wagon ran over his
right arm, crushing the humerus
or upper bone about four inches be-
low the shoulder. Il seems that
he must have been dragged some dis
tance before he was released.
A companion came to his
relief as soon IS possible,
and the wounded man was brought
to Walden where Drs. Fischer and
Snair administered an anaesthetic and
after the lapse Of an hour the patient
was taken to room In the hotel,
where at this hour,-2 p. m.-he is
resting as easy as might be expected,
considering the nature Of the injury.
The bone was broken at suoh an
angle az to permit of its being set
in fairly good shape where it was llg-
atured with silver wire. Several
punctures had been made through
the flesh, the lower end of the brok-
On bone having protruded several in
chss. Mr.. Butts has q wife and two
children at Pearl, and friends have
gone to take them the news OF the
accident and possibly bring them ov-
or. This is . severe injury, and will
keep Mr.. Butts in bed for weeks.
