Marble Division Bills Not
Believed Serious DANCES

The bin by which Aspen proposes to
gobble the Marble and Crystal river
valley section Of Cunnison county 10 moi
receiving much support. according to
reports which the News Champion re-
eeives. Indeed the matter seems to
have been as much Of . surprise to Mar.
BILE citizens themselves az to Gunnison,
altho there are some who accuse the
Colorado Yule Marble Co, of fathering
the movement, because of some SAG, 0O0
back taxes owed Gunnison county. and
which this bill proposes shall be paid to
the new Aspen county. Measures are
being taken to protect our interests,
and If the bill develops any strength,
we will publish its provisions entire.

M'clURE PISS ROAD
lenwood Springs Post:

euwooo springs Eost.
I; One Of the ruads which has been con-
hnp!ated for some time. and which
Heud be Of immense advantage to Gar
epld by way Of bringing people into the
ponty. giving our people an outlet to .
epautiful and productive section Is the
eClure Pass road. leading over to
otAerset Hotchkiss, Paonia, Delta, and
nsding from the North Fork over into
De Montrose country.
II is said by those who know the
ceunty. that this rosd is not especially
difficult to construct nor particularly
expensive. but that it will open up and
unfold to our people one of the grandest
ecenic drives leading down thru fertile
ffuit valley. and will at the same time,
pen Garfield county to visitors from
bat vast section of Colorado. of which
ep to this time we know but very little.
The Post believes that Glenwood is
ready to enter into any reasonable plan
Of cooperation with other points inter.
etted to make a reality the Mcclure
Pass road. We are sure the people OF
Glenwood Springs stand ready to dc
their share toward the opening up OF
this scenic highway.
