every inch the athlete trained to the
minute. Today he presented the ap,

A fair.sized crowd met the fallen
idol at the station, but there was
scarcely a cheer. Jeff's old admirers

Editorial.
Game Preserves

A strong movement is on foot to
set aside Estes Park as game
preserve, to make It in effect Ma
tional Park somewhat on the lines
of the Yellowstone Park, but more
especially game preserve.
Some 20 years ago, when we
were about the age of our present
print shop devil, our family went
camping in Estes Park. The fish
ing was not as good as it is now in
North Park, and we never saw
even trace of game in several
weeks. All the habitable land was
in private occupation and one lady
of our party describedit rightly as
a big COW pasture with hills around
it," At that it has never been as
good COW pasture as North Park
has always been, nor as good game
and fish country as Mort Park now
is. ~
There has been the same line of
projects discussed for jackson 8
Hole and upper Middle Park. The
idea seems to be that there is more
money in the extra-hazardous and
therefore well paid occupation for
native population of guides to the
tenderfooted. wildshooting dudes
for whose benefit the game pre-
serves are reserved than in any
kind of productive industry.
We want to know when this
mountain country gets to be all
reserves and preserves whether an
appropriate part of the restoration
to nature would not be to resurrect
the indians so that the game hogs,
dudes, and conservationist conver-
sationists can be kept out along
with the rest of us.
Indians are the only varmints
that will head that kind of an inva-
sion. Maybe the Lord was foolish
when he didn't lead our pioneers tc
affiliate with them instead of clean
ing our country of them. Thereby
laying its industrial life open to
danger of destruction from the
caprices Of sport loving mollycod
dies and hot house bred bureaucrats
than to suffer which destruction il
had better not been born.
