Apparently Prefer Citizenship !.
this Country to Service Under
Emperor Francis Joseph
Of Austria.

Twenty-three Austrlans from Somer-
set applied for their first naturalization
papers at this term of the district court.
1t is the general opinion these men are
more inclined to come to Gunnison and
apply to become citizens of the United
States than go to Europe and fight for
Emperor Francis Joseph.
When these men seeking the rights
of citizenship reached Gunnison We'd
nesday evening in such a large number,
and came to the office of the clerk of
the district court, it was found that
there were not enough declaration or
intention blanks for all of them. The
clerk was eleven blanks short, and fac
ed a real quandary as these men were
all employed in the Somerset mine and
were supposed to return home the next
day. And on top of all these difficulties
were the strict rules of the fedora
naturalization department which for
bids any kind of blanks but the kind
supplied by the department, and besides
all this the clerk here is not permitted
to order the blanks. These blanks must
be supplied through the office of the Z
S. naturalization examiner, and tbt
aforesaid examiner had never supposed
that there would be such an unusua
call on the Gunnison office, hence ths
lack of blanks. But there is a way out
of most things and telegram in this
case saved the situation. A Telegram
was sent by Cara Estes, deputy CLERK
of the court, to the federal examiner al
Salt Lake City asking permission to gel
the necessary blanks from the office Of
the clerk of Montrose county. The ex
aminer so ordered and the blanks were
supplied.
The Austrisns lost day in the mine,
but they went home satisfied, apparent

C..a.sos Cou.sy.

I'VE have a ~oadsrfal county here "
the Gunnsson hills. probably the mos
varied Ia resources and possibilities oi
any IN Colorado. observed Carroll N
Carter Of Ohio City 10 sNews-Champior
reporter ln Cssnnlssn Saturday "Ane
the knowledge of the extent and per
manence Of those resources is only Js4si
beginning to be appreciated.
However. Mr.. Carter went on TO soy
that perhaps his view point Was mors
rosy than usual on account Ct the very
good showing of ore in large develop
ments at the Carter mine. The ore
shoot of the old Volunteer has just been
crosscut ON the eighth level of the up-
raise and the fact that il has been
traced rs continuous from the bottom Of
the old shaft down 800 feet is extremely
encouraging
1t will be remembered that Mr.. Carter
after driving his tunnel q mile end Q
half, drifted to point directly under
the Volunteer AID ran an upraise for
HOO feet without striking the ore that
was known to have existed in the 249
foot Volunteer shaft when it was sban-
doned ON account Of excessive water.
However, after considerable prospect
ing it was discovered that the bottom
of the original shaft was not at the
point Indicated by the survey and that
the ore shoot instead of following the
incline pitched sharply away from il
and from the line of the upraise. Cross
cutting through the bottom of the in
cline the ore WAS uncovered in expected
form. Dropping down to the 1000 foo,
level and cresscutting it was again
picked up, and the same at so feet.
Nov that the eighth level has sscured
the same body, there is every reason to
believe that it continues and levels will
be run every hundred feet to the bottom

GREAT PRAISE GIVEN FOR
FRANK DEAN

In the Grand junction Sentinel of re
cent date appears an editorial praisine
the work of Frank f. Dean, former
photographer of Gunnison. The edi.
torial writer speaks of a salon exhibit
of portraiture work of famous European
arranged by Mr.. Dean, and states that
in connection with the large display
from noted photographers of other
cites and lands, Mr.. Dean is showing
some of his own home portraiture work.
The editorial states further that:
"As we looked over the work of
many of the celebrated eastern photo
graphers and then over Mr. Deans own
work in this field of portraiture we GER
tainly were convinced that Mr.. Dean S
work does not suffer by comparison.
We might be accused of being biased in
favor of the local man, but we believe
an absolutely impartial judge from some
distant point would agree with US in the
statement made above.
We have long contended that Frank
E. Dean is one of the very best photo
graphers in the United States and we
become more and more convinced of this
all the time. We aren't alone in this.
We heard Frank r. Robertson, the
famous world traveller and true Judge
of art, make a similar declaration and
have heard others of equal ability tc
Judge say the same thing.
Dean is . remarkabl photographer.
There is no denying it and Grand juno
ton is proud of his work and his beauti.

The district court convened W Ganni.
son last Wednesday evening when Judge
Thomas Black read the docket and hesrc
motions which attorneys had to present.
Only one motion was presented and that
was an application for change of venue
by the attorney for the defendant in the
case Of Stall and I.aplant VS. the Denver
Commission and Grain Company. The
matter Was taken under advisement by
the court and the next morning an
noaneed that the application was denied.
The jury was called at ten O'Clock
yesterday morning and at one-thirty in
the afternoon the trial of the first Grim
inal case was commenced with District
Attorney William Weiser conducting
the prosecution.
There are eight civil and six criminal
cases on the trial docket II is thought
that only two of the criminal cases will
be tried at this term of the court.
These two are the People VS.. George
Reed for murder and the People VS..
David Frew and John Frew for assault.
1t will he remembered that George
Reed is the man who shot and killed an
Italian at Somerset. 1t is the universal
opinion that Reed shot in self defense,
but the coroner's jury took no definite
action and it is Reeds desire that he
be tried SO that he will be cleared of
the charge.
Frank Van Alstine is the complaining
witness against the Frew brothers.
Van Alstine was assaulted, it is alleged,
by the Frews with intent to kill. The
alleged assault took place in Gunnison
on Cattlemen's day of this year.
The People VS.. Palmer Vsder is a
third criminal case, and is peace bond
matter. 1t is thought that this bond
will be continued. The People vs.. An
ma Scanlon, People VS.. Tucker and the
People VS.. Joe Moore are the other
three criminal actions on the dockett.
The latter case is brought against the
man who stole the livery team from the
Eastman barns in Gunnison.
The civil cases are: Mary Curley VS.
The Town of Marble, Frank Stull and
LaPlant VS. The Denver Commission
and Grain Company, Trampe VS. Edwin

Resissescd Votes CO to PoHs.
Palmer Tressurerstap Nomlnee.
MoEhoy VII Make Race for
Representative.

The voting IN the primary election
last Tuesday was very hight. only about
a fourth Of the registered vote being
cast. There are about three thousand
registered votes IN the county and there
were only about s0o or 100 Polled Two
years ago at the general election there
were an even $500 votes cast for the
candidates for governor
The voting IN the three precincts in
the town of Gannison was heavier than
IN any other section Of the county The
total registration in the town was sd2
and Of this number PSI votes were cast
l56 being in No. 1. The voting was ex-
ceedingly light in Crested Butte.
The contest for the county treasur-
ship ON the democratic ticket resulted
in sweeping victory for 4. G. Palmer
over his Marble opponent b. r. Jorgen-
sen. For representative James Nc
Elroy Of Crested Butte won the demo-
cratic nomination in close contest with
W. S. Henderson of Pitkin. McElroys
vote was 233 while Henderson received
2l5 with a light vote at Powderhorn and
White Pine yet to hear from. These
we're the only contests on the demo-
cratic county ticket. There were no
contests on the republican county ticket.
Indications are that the democrats of
the county give Patterson slight lead
over Napier when the two missing pre-
cincts are in. Both have 2l5 on the
face of present returns In the state
figures last night Patterson has 49,
0O2, Napier 10,9O7. For governor on
the republican ticket, Carlson, 1854,
Nicholson, 10, AIS, Goudy, 1863.
