Stewart H. Cong don

Stewart II. Congdon, nomine on
both the Republican and Progressive
tickets, for County Judge, has been
a resident OF Gunnison County for
some years and has made his home
at Crested Butte where he has been
engaged in mining and is now Pres
idcnt of the Elk Mountain Coal Co.
and is dvcloping a large coal de-
posit there.
Mr.. Congdon did not seek the
nomination of either party, and is
under no pledge to any person of
any part, but to the people alone,
to render equal justice to all, re-
gardless of station or party affilia-
tions. Mr.. Congdon was born in
New York in 1857 and was many
years in business there, and has had
much experience in the courts of
that city. Mr.. Congdon asks for
the votes of the people because OF
his especial fitness for the Office and
mature experience in the affairs of
men. He has been living among us
for several years and has made a rep
utation for integrity and fair deal

SHOOTING OFF The
SOLID.

Pernici5us Practice Condemned by
United States Geological Survey.
Much has been said and written
in condemnation of the practice, too
prevalent in some of the coal--min
ing States of shooting off the solid"
that is, of blasting down the coal
without having previously uudercut
or shcarcd it, or making the pow
cr do all the work." accorping to
Edward w. Parker the coal satisti-
clan of the United States Geological
Survey, all authorities agree that
the practice is rcprchensible in the
highest degree. The heavy charges
of powder produce an unnecessary
quantity of fine coal and render lump
coal SO friable that it disintcgrates
in handling and transportation. The
quantity and quality of the mcrchan-
table products are thereby matcria-
lly reduced. These reasons in them
selves are sufficient to cal forth the
condemnation of the practice and the
demand for its abolition, but IL far
stronger reason is increased liability
of accident in q vocation that Is
enough when ali prccau-
tions 20 ssiblc are taken to promot'
safety. The use of inordinate charges
of d owdsr weakeus the roaf and sup
porting pillars and failure to under
cut or shear the coal increases the
danger OF windy shots, the cause OF
frequent and dust explosions. FALL
of coal and roof in 1911 caused al
most one-half of the 2,7OO or 81
deaths in the coal mines Of the Unit.
ed States, and explosions caused
II per cent. The deaths from thu
prolific cause, however, usually hap
pen singly and are not reported out

cidonts occur, whereas the less FREQ

this would do away with team
haul of something like two miles
down heavy grade, whereas if the
ore was delivered to the mill by tram
it wonld be less than one mile. The
companys mill is on the river just
above Gothic and below the fills that
furnish the power to operate the
mill which is driven by Pelton water
wheels. The ore is n coarse cube

TUBA NEWS ITEMS

Forest Guard Garthwaite, ac- companied by Walter C. Stanton, of Cincinnati, Ohio, who is hold ing down the position of additional farmer temporarily, left few days ago for the Marsh Pass section, taking along machinery, tools and help sufficient to put the road through the Pass in shape for travel. The Indians living in the vicinity have agreed to help along the work materially, as the road must be gotten in shape by the time the contract for materials for the new Marsh Pass school is placed. In its present condition the road would not be passable for the freighters, and an effort will be made to blast out the rock and get a permanent roadway through the dangerous portion ol the route. The task will take the greater part of the month.
 An additional position of nur- seryman has been created at this school, and the same will be filled as soon as the Indian office can find the proper man. This is a step in the right direction as the numerous orchards here require the constant attention of compe- tent man, and the intention is, il possible, to raise young nursery stock to supply the Indians who desire it as well as the surround ing schools where fruit trees are not grown at all at the present time.
 5. s. Preston, with his wife and son, Master Scott, drove with their new touring car in to Flag staff in five hours on Saturday, returning the following afternoon. They brought with them Mrs. s.
