Moo,1ose Editor Makes Al
Interesting Suggestion.
Lower ValIey Auto;sts
Want to Wit Us

"You people in Gunnison county d.
not half or . quarter appreciate tie
amount Of auto travel from the val
leys west into Gunnison," declared C.
E. Adams, editor Of the Nontrose
Press, who visited in our city We'd
nesday, coming up the night before
with Mrs. Adams and family to spend
Memorial Day with his brother,
Clarence Adams. "If you did the
road authorities would see that those
critical places on the Blue mesa road
were fixed up. It's not so bad coming
this way, indeed, nine-tenths of the
Blue mesa road and the highway from
Sapinero to Gunnison are in fine shape
but evidently Road Superintendent
Wiley has depended on some road men
who completely failed him in watch
ing the job on that stretch coming
down into the Blue and from the half
way house up the grade this side.
ut looks to me as if they had over
looked bet in not keeping a reliable
man on this end of the road to watch
the melting snow banks and ditch out
the water. / believe a man with a
horse and shovel and pick, could
have saved many times his wages in
keeping the surface from being
washed in the sudden water flows
from the hill sides, and the dozen to
fifty autos that every Sunday head
this way from Montrose and come to
within few miles of Gunnison would
be saved all sorts of grief.
ave Montrose people are just as
much interested in the Rainbow Route
as Gunnison. 1t is our only outlet,
and we are very proud of the fact
that 1t is open the earliest and stays
open the latest of any transcontinent-
al road. We have a great advertis-
ing point If we can make it good clear
through and drive the point home to
tourists east and west of US. Mont
rose county was early in the field to
smooth dandy grade over Cerro
summit, and you have a fine road all
except these two bad places that spoil
the whole trip"
Mr.. Adams remarks are worth con-
sidering. Perhaps Gunnison folks are
not awake to the possibilities of open
ing the route early and keeping it in
fine shape at every point. 1t has only
been within year or SO that our
people got acquainted with the road
west. Our natural outlet is east and
we are proud Of Cochetopa pass which
Saguache county fixes for us.
