Long time ago. when the sun was
hot overhead the old men would call
to the little boys to come into the
shade and stop playing for a time.
THE old lady Sun is stopping at
the house of her daughter for dinner"
they would say. "and you better wait
till she is on her way toward the cool
land In the West before you 90 out
again"
And the boys would come into the
house and beg the old man who had
called them in 10 tell about the time
the rattlesnake was sent up to kill the
sun. but only succeeded in killing the
suns daughter. This IL the way II
was:
In that time the sun had no home
at all. but had TO keep travelling up the
sky from the east and down the sky
| in the west and under the earth while
1t was dark day after day and day
after day.
But the daughter OF the sun had a
nice house right up in the middle OF
! the sky, and every day the sun would
stop there for dinner. And every day
the sun and the suns daughter would
have n dispute about how the people
on the earth looked. The sun said
that the people were ugly, for they
screwed up their faces when they
looked up at her; but the suns
daughter said that the people were
smiling and handsome, for she never
went out of her house until the sun
was down past the edge Of the west,
and then the people could look at her
without squirting their eyes.
And the sun would get angry and
shine down on the earth SO hot that
the people would swelter. and many
OF them became sick. That pleased
the sun, but II did not please the suns
daughter, who was friendly with man.
80 the suns daughter sent a message
saying that the little people OF the
woods (the Yunwi TsunsdD would tell
man how to stop the heat sickness.

the water incident is but the warning
of an approaching storm, for Father
Duncan is one of the best known
missionaries in North America, and
it is believed that he can arouse a
storm of protest in church circles
both in the United States and Eng
land.
Father Duncan maintains that the
Indians are only children incapable
of managing their own affairs, who
have become fractions and rebellious
and need severe discipline.
The Indians in turn point to the
village of Hydaburg on Prince of
Wales Island where with the guidance
of the U. S. Indian school the younger
generation has become self govern
ing, own their own store, lumber mill
and fish salteries.
Only II or IA followers remain with
Father Duncan, but all the Metakaht-
lans still love him. While openly hos

MetIakahtIa, AIaska.-Angered at
the Tsimpsean Indians, Father Dun

Then Sec'y Lane issued the order

ANOTHER MONTH
BEFORE TAXES
GAN BE PAID
Assessors Force Rushed and
Treasurer Getting His Books
Into Shape.

1t will be nearly month before it
will be possible to pay taxes in Me-
sa county, because of the tie-up of
the tax commission law in the courts.
Assessor Brown is working his office
force day and night in order to get
the assessment rolls in shape for the
county treasurer. but it is doubtful If
ii will be possible to pay taxes in the
county before the middle OF Febru-
airy at the very earliest.
The tax rolls of delinquent prop
erty owners whose lands had been
sold for taxes, have already been
turned over to County Treasurer
Canon, and these matters are being
Strengthened out at once. I'm order
that there will be no further delay
when once the assessment books are
completed. Sewer and paving taxes
are now being paid, as special as
sessments were not involved in the
questions carried to the courts.
Petition for rehearing of the tax
case has already been filed by As
SCISSOR Pitcher in Denver, with the
supreme court. and he has announc-
ed that the matter will be carried
to the United States supreme court,
but Assessor Brown will not wait
for further court decisions. Every
thing possible is being done to IA
cilitate the work. and because of the

Sixty-three criminal cases are al

weeks term of court in March and
the present grand jury is expected to
increase that number. When Judge
Black opens court here it is believed
that not less than rs criminal cases

However, District Attorney Weis-

large a docket. Arrangements have
been made for Judge Charles n. Cav

MESA COUNTY May HAVE Three
SUPERVISORS TO WORK ROADS

Mesa county may appoint three
road supervisors, instead of one. as
had been planned by the old board
of county commissioners. While in
Denver the members of the board
spent considerable time discussing
the road question with commission
ers from other counties, and found
that the general practice was to ap-
point road overseer for each COM
missioner district. where the old
oyerseer plan had been abandoned.
We have not decided definitely
what we will do regarding the roads.
although the present system will be
changed" said Chairman B. j. Sny-
der in discussing the matter. THE
law does. not specifically say we
should appoint one road overseer and
one only, but says We may do so. IL
does, however. repeal the old law.
and it is possible to name as many
or as few supervisors as may be re-
quired to properly handle business of
the county.
This is a large county with a
tremendous mileage of roads. and it
is rather doubtful If one man could
cover the entire district. In coun-
ties where the experiment has been
tried, the commissioners informed
us there had been much trouble in
working out the one road supervisor
system, because he was unable to
keep in direct touch with the differ
ent gangs he had working on the
roads. While he was in one end of
the county, the men might be loafing
on the job miles away. and in actual
practice the system didn't work out
as we'll as expected. We are not
quite ready to act on the matter at
this time. but will do SO before the
necessity comes for road construc-

COUNTY MAY PAY

District Attorney Weiser appeared
before the board of county commits
sioners this afternoon with verbal
request that the board employ an at
torney to represent the plaintiffs in
the suit brought by ]. B. Hunter and
others against the county, to enjoin
the payment of the bridge warrants
The commissioners took the request
under advisement.
Attorney Weiser will be busy with
Judge Black in Montrose county
when the case is called up, and Judge
Chas. Cavender of Leadville will hear
the case. The commissioners recent
ly employed County Attorney Hal
derman to defend the case for the
county, and the members showed a
willingness to pay the entire costs
OF the action II need be.
They promised. however. to take
Mr.. Weiser's request under consid-
GRAFTON and advise him later of the

CHAMBER WILL REQUEST
LOWER RATES ON RADIUM
ORES TO GRAND JUNCTION

The concentration of radium ores
near Monticello, Utah. by local i'm

Grand Junction. according to Mayor
Charles E. Cherrlngton. who has ask
ed the Chamber of Commerce to take
up with the Rio Grande the matter
of lowering rates on vanadium and
uranium ores from Green River and
other Utah points to this city.
Several concentration plants Will

ton, and instead of shipping the con
centrated product east to Pennsyl-

Mr.. Gherrington declares that it
should be done in this city
Steps in that direction are being
rapidly taken and preliminary nego-
tiations with the railroads to get
lower rates into this city are to be
commenced through the commercial
organization.
At present these ores are shipped
as stone with maximum valuation
of So Il ton either to Grand juno
ton Or to Pueblo, no change being
made in the price MIR. Cherrington
favors rate of 81 ton into this
city, and believes the railroad ought
to be held responsible for the full
value of the ore in case of loss.
The car of vanadium ore shipped
last year to the east cost $500 from
Thompsons to Pueblo. This makes
it prohibitive to ship the low grade

FICTITIOUS REAL

Fictitious values of land and

likely be barred in the future as a
result of an order received today By
Assessor j. T. Brown from Chairman

ordinary farmer, and as result
great damage to this section has
been done.
In the order received by the as
sessor today, he is told
To All County Assessor: 81
You are advised to keep a record
of the transfers of real property in
your county with the consideration
as recorded therein. You are also
advised to make diligent efforts to
verify this consideration and ascer-
tain, If possible, whether II repre-
sents the amount actually paid. In
case a nominal consideration is Civ
en-, 1t Is advisable for you to spend
some time in finding out, if possible.
what the actual price paid was. In
this way you will be able to secure
evidence bearing on the actual value
of real estate in your county.

that vow tseh list of the real ns-
tate mortgages and trust deeds with
the consideration in the same. This
will also aid you very materially in
