Undersheriff George l.. Price was sp-
prised on Friday morning by the town
marshal at Olathe to the effect that
the postoffice there had been robbed the
night before and about x100 in money
removed, says the Montrose Enterprise
The burglar took place between one
and two o clock in the night and people
living in the vicinity heard the explo-
sion but did not think anything serious
was happening.
The burglary was not discovered until
early the next morning when Post
master John Uglow came down to open
up for the days business. In the main
room of the office he found the big iron
door of the safe lying on the floor and
papers scattered all over The safe had
been ransacked and $50 in money order
funds and over $50 in postal funds taken.
1t could not be told just how much had
been taken of stamps. The burglars
had also taken blank money orders from
Nos. "a, 975 to IS, 900.
They did not leave single trace that
would afford the officers single clue %
their identity. Postmaster Uglow mott
fed the department at Denver of the
robbery and detectives will be on the
ground at once.

RAILROAD s|OE-sTEPs
UTILITY COMMISSIONS
ORDERS on RATES

The railroads are apparently trying
to sidestep the recent order of the UtI-
tiles Commission reducing fares in Colo
RADIO. This is particularly the case with
the new mileage books. on which YOU
are entitled to take dependent members
of your family.
In the first place, the Rio Grande
wont sell you such mileage book if i
can help it. but recommends the Old
style. same price, but no family priv
leges. After you insist and buy one,
the conductor refuses to give half fare
for children between five and twelve,
but calmly pulls full fare for the young
sters. Also in some localities com
plants appear that the mileage Is not
pulled in accordance with the new
tariff.
According to member of the eomnIs-
sion. the railroads have been inclined 70
dodge obediepce to the order requiring 2
al passengers to be given seats. The
commission says that some of the rail-
roads have refused to take passenger.
rather than give them seats in the Pull
mans. Again, according to the com
mission. the railroads have discontinued
stop-over privileges on round trip tick
cts because of the reduction in the
fares. which reduction was made by the
commission.
All of which will probably cause the
Utility Commission to take another
whirl at the roads.
Right here in Gunnison county, the
commission ordered fares reduced to
four cents . mile except from Salida to

A record kept by Mrs. X. " Berry at
Little Blue and the RAINBOW Route,
shows a total of $40 counted autos hav-
ing passed that point between the 18th
of May, when travel began, and the
10th of August. As Mrs. Berry was
absent several days at one time, and
there are yet five days to complete the
three months, it is safe estimate to
say that 600 cars have gone over the
Rainbow Route in three months, an
average of 200 to the month or ten a
day. The biggest day ran forty-fve
cars.
Mr.. Berry is in charge of the Blue
mesa section of the Rainbow Route for
County Commissioner w. A. Gillaspey
and has earned the praise of all travel
lers by the way he has handled the mesa
road. And he has had plenty to contend
with. For instance, he declares that
up 10 date thirty eight bands of sheep
have been driven through the Blue
canon, and then up the Little Blue.
These averaged 2, 900 sheep to band,
and the way they rolled rocks into the
canon is a caution. The roads have to
be cleaned immediately after the woolies
leave.
Mr. Gillaspey was on the mesa invest
igating conditions this week, and has
figured out a cutoff, TO shunt these
sheep bands across the Big Blue, just
above the canon, and get them i'm
mediately on the higher range and above
the Rainbow Route. This would GER
tainly be q great saving of time and
money for tourists and should be done.

Reports have been current this week
that the missing link in the RAINBOW

on the Arkansas grade between Park
dale and and Cotapaxi, had been com
pleted. However, it is not yet passible

is proposed to hold formal dedication

rock, is another big asset to the list of
highways leading to Pueblo. 1t has

The new highway IS said to be one of
the most difficult and most expensive
pieces of road construction work ever
perfected in the state. 1t skirts the
Arkansas river canyon from Parkdale
to Cotopaxi and as scenic drive Is sur
passed by few stretches of mountain
highway in the state.
The new ''cut-off" furnished a link in
the Rainbow Route highway. and opens
the way for clear drive from Pueblo
to Salt Lake City. 1t was constructed
by convict labor and gangs of workers
have been employed on the road for the
last two years. The counties through
which the highway passes contributed
$50. 600 towards the completion of the
