with 55l necessary TO choice
Justice Robert w Steele of Denver
was renominated unanimously for JUS
tice Of the state supreme court and
Congressman f. e. Taylor of Glen
wood Springs was unanimously nomi-
mated for congressman at large.
A platform demanding state control
of natural resources was read and or
dered printed.
Although it declares sympathy with
conservation of natural resources the
platform as read to the convention
makes a strong attack upon the adj
ministration of the forest service de-
claring unalterable opposition to the
arbitrary and bureaucratic regulations
which it declares work hardship upon
the miner and homesteader and retard
the development of the state.
The platform commends the ac-
ton of the state administration in
directing the attorney general to pre-
vent, so far as possible through proper
litigation, the encroachment of the ma
tional government upon the sovereign
rights of the people Of the state.

fishing schooner Joseph Rush. which
arrived on Wednesday from Bering
sea, reports narrow escape from de-
struction by being buried under ashes
thrown from the crater of Mount Shi.
shaldin on Unimak island The old
volcano, which had been in eruption
nearly all summer has thrown ashes
on all vessels going through Unimak
pass, which is the gateway of Bering
sea.
On the morning of June Shishal-
din was in an unusually furious mood,
emitting a cloud of ashes, which, car
ried thirty miles by gale, compelled
the vessels crew to go below the
decks, When the vessel had passed
out of reach of the downpour the crew
broke through the matches, which
were buried under foot of ashes and
pumice. The schooner was sunk low
on her water line and if the vessel
had not sailed out of the danger zone
she must have been sunk with all
hands
