saIPPInG ORE FROM Alaska
YUKON, BEING OPENED

Actual development work commenc-
ed this week on the Alaska Y ukon mine,
where four men under ?. S. Saunders
are drifting from the sixty foot level
and starting the shaft down toward 200
feet, which is the stunt set for this
spring.
The heavy zinc-copper ore on which
the drift is running, is three feet in
width and car load will be shipped
within week or two. Manager j. B.
Conger is expected in from Denver
Saturday. A new steam drill has just
been installed and as soon as they can
be given room, to work, additional
miners will be added to the force. This
IS one of the most promising prospects
in Gunnison county, and with the pre-
sent price of zinc and copper, looks like
a winner from the start

A great deal has been said about the
famous Canon City skyline drive, but
in point of scenery, it is not the equal
of the route which has been discovered
at the very doors of Gunnison. From
this drive in the very center of Rocky
Mountain section can be seen the peaks
which form the crest of many of the
mountain ranges. From twenty to
twenty-five mountain peaks can be seen,
nearly all of them over IA, 900 feet high
and below are unfolded to the eye the
the full expsnse Of three large noun
tain valleys.
However, q really suitable and COM
prehensive name has not yet been
suggested. We don't want to initiate
any names like ''Skylins" or "High-
line. This drive is unique in its COM
prehensive view of the central Rockies.
The name should be poetic and pictur-
esque, but not "Hifaluting" 1t should
be reasonably short and crisp so that it
may stick in the mind. 1t should be
comprehensive in its suggestion of the
scene. Who has the right name?
A full description of this venture which
is being SO successfully carried out by
the citizens of Gunnison appeared in the
News-Champion last week. A list Of
all citizens who contributed will later be
published.

FOR BRIDGE OVER PRICE RIVER
Montrose Enterprise:

Montrose Enterprise:
By his veto of bill passed by the
Utah Legislature. providing for the con-
struction of the Woodside bridge on the
Midland trail across the Price river,
Governor Spry has put kink in the
plans Of the auto road enthusiasts who
have been depending upon the building
of this bridge for the Salt Lake City
outlet for the Rainbow and Midland
Trail routes through Colorado.
1t is said, however. that the Green
river and Price people are up in arms
over the action Of the governor and
swear they will provide for the building
of the bridge themselves. 1t is said
that span of 80 feet from pile abut-
ments on each side would form the base
of superb auto bridge and make the
Rainbow route link complete. Indigna-
tion is plentiful over the new. of Gov.
Spry's action.

The new town council meets to organ
ize next Monday night. One important
question coming up for discussion will
be the hiring of night watchman or
marshal instead of day man. As a
matter of fact the night time, when the
rest of us sleep is the period when Gun
nison most needs watch kept for fires
and danger. There is very little of the
work now looked after by the marshal,
but what could be relegated to the
ditchtender, who could look after stray
stock, the treasurer who might carry q
deputy commission and if riot starts,
which indeed is unlikely, the sheriff or
under sheriff are always handy In fact
the more one thinks of the proposition
the more reasonable it appears.
