Cross-country mixers have noticed at

measure draws a veil of mystery over the

mystery turks. These stones can he found

Although the corporation values as
returned to the county assessor for
1917 are considerably increased over
1915, the county commissioners are
still not satisfied and took action at
their meeting this week to secure an
other hundred thousand valuation
added to the Rio Grande.
Some weeks ago, it developed that
Commissioner Whalen had discovered
the fact that fourteen miles Of track
age on the Floresta and Smith, -Anth-
rscite branches above Crested Butte
should be assessed as main Rio
Grande mileage at $4,000 q mile.
He brought this before the State Tax
Commission and they included the

miles but failed to include the shorter
line. Accordingly the commissioner
determined TO protest and bring action
before the tax commission for near
