The Swastika.

A party of gentlemen were dis
cussing the popular craze for Swas-
tika jewelry the other evening and
speaking of it's wonderful and gen.
eral use as an ornament.
The Swastika, from the Sanskrit,
Hsvasti' is universal emblem
and the oldest known. The mean
ing of the word is ''of good for
tune and it has been an omen of
good luck through all ages in all
sections of the world. The cross is
peculiarly formed, each arm being
{. continuation of right. angles all in
the same direction. 1t is of frequent
occurancc on Greek antiquities of
the Mycaen epoch, and later in the
fifth century B. c. 1t is common
on the prehistoric monuments of
western Europe, and was included
in the decorations and cmbroiderics
the middle ages.
The Indians from the American
arctic to the mcsas of southern
Mexico use it in other decorations.
1t is frequently found on the blank
cts of the Navajocs, in the orna-
ments of the Arizona and Mexican
Indians and in the baskctry of the
Eskimo and the Thlinglcts. 1t is
always and everywhere the symbol
of good luck. The Thlinglets have
called the Swastika cross, which
We have christencd with an old
name, ''shak-yak arkic," and to
them it is sign of the very bes,
omen.
1t has been found in and on the
most ancient tombs of the world
and in the most ancient habitations
yet discovered on this continent,
and the question arises, what was
the means by which it became the
omen of good fortune on every con-
tincnt of the known world. The
problem of ''the first man. is ye
to be solved.

Nampa Factory TO Start Sept. 10.

According to General Manager
Thos. r. Cutler of the Utah-Idaho
Sugar company, the factories of
that concern will start operations
in September for the season. The
Nampas factory will be the first to
start the wheels going. 1t is expect
ed that beet digging in the Nampa
ditrict will commence by Sept. 5
and that within five days of that
time the grinding will be under
way. The other factories will start
within two or three weeks from
that time.
The company owns six factories
in all: Lehi and Garland in Utah /;
Bisckfoot, Idaho Falls, Sugar City
and Nampa, in Idaho. The inidca-
tions are that each will have a
record breaking run. The crop has
thus far in the season shown every
indication of success and # is be-
lieved that the sugar beet raisers
will be we'll paid for their sum-
mer's labor with the sugar-making
vegetables.
The railroads are making prepar-
atoms to furnish all c. rs needed for
harvesting, and it is not feared
that the industry will be seriously
intcrferred with from the stand
point of transportation facilities,
although during the heaviest weeks
of shipping the equipment may fall
short of the demand for it. Some
coal has been stored by the company,
although not enough for the entire
season. 1t is reported unofficially
that the sugar companies of the in
termountain country have made ar
arrangements to get their fuel from
an independent concern this year
and that there is little danger of
shortage for them. Salt Lake Re-

New Telephone Directory.

A new directory of telephone sub
scribers on the Walden exchange, COM
pleted up to October 18th will be here
in short time. This directory will be
of considerable benefit to subscribers
in the matter of reducing time in max
ing local connections. Every telephone
in the Park has a number which not on
ly indicates the line which it is on but
also the number of rings which tho sub
scriber is to answer
On all lines one ring is for central.
The operator always answers by saying
number When you are answered in
this way tell the operator the number
wanted, hold the line until you are an
swarad.- or -tho-nlAas..te- teii,- you tire
line is busy, or out of order, or they
don't answer. Then if you don't get
satisfaction kick like-Sam Hill, but

was burning, and while strenuous efforts
were made to save the stack, all but four

Had Rib broken.

Theodore Cook had the misfortune to
be thrown against and out of hay rack
Sunday at Emmett Lees ranch, in such
a manner as to break rib and bruis.,
him up considerable.
Mr. Cook was helping thresh at Lees
and was driving wagon with hay
rack on it when the front bolster came
off. The rack fell to the ground in such
a way that it was turned completely over,
Mr. Cook getting considerably the worst
of the bargain. DR. Fischer was sum
moned and found rib broken in his
right side, making very painful wound.
The doctor fixed up the injury and Mr..
Cook was later taken to his home where
he is recovering as rapidly as could be
expected.

Sold the Horse.

Frank McCasland was up from Cowd-
rey Tuesday looking for Joe league, a
man who has been in the employ of
VIM. Norell, to recover balance of $50
on mare which league had sold for
Mr.. McCasland and had failed to turn
over.
The mare was on the range over on
the west side and league was to have
taken her down to McCasland at Cowd-
rey Monday, but stopped in Walden and
disposed of the animal to D. X. Smith
for $50. He then telephoned to McCas-
land that he had sold the mare for $50
and would deposit the money in the
bank here. While McCasland thought
$50 was small price for the mare, he
agreed to the sale and told league to
keep S. for his trouble
Suspecting that all was not as it should
be Mr.. McCasland came to Walden and
found that league l,eta-soid the 1uare
for $50 instead of $50, and had deposited
but $40 for him in the bank. He man.
aged to catch league at the Hardy ranch

Working Placer Ground.

Word comes from Glover Valley tc
the effect that NJ j. Capron and two
men from the Yampa river country are
working in the old placer diggings in
Glover Valley, and have struck some
pretty rich gravel.
Considerable preliminary work, in
Guiding the construction of a ditch, has
been accomplished the past few months
and the erection Of table apparatus for
washing the gold has made it possible to
save not only the coarse gold but the
finer grades as we'll.
1t is said that several very advantag
eous offers have aloeady been made for
the ground by outside parties. and some
very encouraging news is expected from
that section soon.
The ground that is being worked is in
a locality famous as placer diggings
before the settlement of the Park, part.
les coming in and working the ground
during the summer, fighting Indians be-
tween times, and returning to ci,iliza-
tion in the winter One of the main
difficulties experienced in these early
workings was the difficulty in saving
any but the coarse gold, the finer gold
being washed through the sluice boxes.

Making Love1and Friends.

H. N. Wheeler, supervisor of the Med
icine Bow Forest Reserve in Colorado
was in Loveland friday, says the Regis
ter.
Mr.. Wheeler is an enthusiast in re-
gard to the forestry work, and has many
interesting things to say concerning it
Among other things he tells of a trail
over the range that the government is
making over the range that is of such an
easy grade that it might be turned into
a wagon road at small cost. 1t would
connect Estes Park with both North and
Middle Parks. Such q road would be
of much benefit to Loveland and should
receive encouragement from the Love
land people.

Forest Officials and Settlers
Take Care Of Fire in
Middle Park.

Sunday, September 90, Mr.. II. M.
Wise, of Missouri, allowed his camp fire
near Fraser, Colorado, to spread into the
surrounding timber. This fire was dis
covered by settlers and together with
the Forest officials in that section of the
country worked all night Sunday night
and finally succeeded in subduing the
conflagration.
When Mr.. Wise discovered that his
camp fire had caused trouble, he did not
inform anyone of the fact but immed-
lately made plans to get out of the
country. After registering in the hotel
at Fraser he went to CRANKY and stayed
all night. From there he went to Den
Yer and telephoned back to Frazer for
his grip. The Forest officers together
Earl NJ. Cranston, United States Attor-
ney, Deputy United States Marshal
Highland, and United States Commits
sioner Hinsdale of Denver, worked up
the evidence ard secured the arrest of

Pushing Work.

A rumor to the effect that the Union
Pacific is trying to force the l.. III. p &
=. to sell out its holdings to that com
pany is denied by President Miller, who
states positively that no offers have been
made by the Union Pacific, and that the
Laramie Plains line is not only going to
be pushed into the Park but will be
built on over into Routt County in 1908.
Grading on the line of survey from Cen
tenniel to Walden is being pushed as
rapidly as possible by the company, but
President Miller states that when the
estimates for the work are all in it is the
intention of the company to let the work
of grading to contractors who will fin
ish it in short order.
The Saratoga & Encampment Co. are
making excellent progress on their road
from Saratoga to Encampment, and this
road also is scheduled to build into the

the culverts of stone and cement To
anyone conversant with railroad build
