the Gauze department expect to make
an especially big one next week. New

From Irwin on, the rotary cut to the

The crews had gotten over the divide
and had the finish in sight when the

MONTROSE WILL HELP OPEN
BLUE MESA AT ONCE

Elmer Wiley, road superintendent,
went to Sapinero Tuesday morning in
tending to make o personal trip Of
investigation over the Blue mesa, and
see what the actual condition of those
drifts Is. Folks west of Gunnison
county are raising Ned because we do
not open the road at once, but SO far
no one has been able to get thru, and
snow banks twenty feet deep are re-
ported around the canon of the Blue.

the other hand, our county wants to
do its share in opening the west trans
continental tourist route far ahead Of
any other in Colorado.
Mr.. Wiley will size up the situation
and see what can be done this next
week.
Mr.. Wiley returned Wednesday and
reported conditions very bad beyond
Sapinero. The snow is going very
slowly, indeed has piled up deeper
this last week. However, Montrose
folks are SO anxious to open the mesa
that they offer to help, and are re-
ported to be organizing for action
about next Monday. II Montrose coun-
ty will open the road to the half way

Roads are now open to Pitkin, al

THE COMING WEEK

A. F. Hay starts this morning to
drive q company team to the Cebolla,

work for the Searchlight Oh / Gas
company, which is working the Smoot
properties.
II is rumored that the Rocky Noun
tain Fuel Co. expect TO reopen the
Kubler mine ut Baldwin - soon ~ tie
snow goes. This is generally eonsid-
cred one Of the best mines Of domestic
coal in the county, and its operation
will mean q greatly increased produc-
tion next winter.
Dollar silver seems on the road. The
market price per ounce ID hovering
between 81 and 90 cents, with con-
slant upward trend. There are many
bills in congress proposing to hx the
price uniformity at q dollar, but why
not wait till it goes to $1.29 and then
remonitize it at 16 to 1.
Any attempt on the part of the de-
partment of the interior to impose q
leasing system upon the oil shale
lands Of the Western Slope will meet
with the determined opposition of
Senator Shafroth. In reference to
the bill which the department is draft
ing, Mr.. Shafroth said in Washington: !:
"Such a law will kill the industry and
there will be no shale development
under it."
