~PERsHING,s CRUsADERs,"
REEL FEATURE, COMING

A feature Of the Cattlemen's Cele-
bration has been secured by the man.
sgement of the Unique Theatre,
which has billed "Pershing's Crusad-
ers," for Friday, July 10. This is a
wonderful eight reel picture owned
by the United States Government,
which eventually all picture houses
In the country are to exhibit as q
patriotic duty. II is . great picture
and Gunnison is fortunate in getting
hold Of 1t SO early, and for this occa-
sion.
The rental price Of the Aim is turn
ed into the Government War Fund,
and the authorities in charge also fix
the price Of admission, the minimum
Of which Is Is cents for children and
so cents for adults. These will be the
prices charged by the Unique Theatre.
We do not know the whole story of
the picture, but it is Of course direct
ly connected with the American troops
in Europe and their crusade to make
the world safe for decent people to
live in.

COAL PRICES TAKE WHAT
SEEMS UNJUSTIFlED RAISE

The announced coal prices for July
are again arbitrarily raised from 90
to so cents, by this freight advance,
and while any number Of excuses are
offered in explanation, it looks to the
News Champion like . plain ease Of
profiteering.
For instance, the rate for twenty
years from Baldwin to Gunnison, .
distance Of twenty miles. has been SO
cents q ton. It was reasonable rate,
and unquestionably the road made
money on the business. Now comes
the blanket advance Of 25 per cent,
allowed by the railway administra-
ton which would make it Just $.626.
But this is Immediately stretched by
convenient rule to be 20 cents . ton
when the former rate was less than q
dollar. This makes 70 cents. How
ever, just wait. A year ago the In
terstate Commerce Commission allow
ed Is cent ton raise ON coal east
Of the Mississippi river. Western
roads were supposed to have rates
high enough. Now, at this juncture,
these western roads, including the
Rio Grande, are also granted this
tai 65 cents. But wait again. A
rule-just a nice, convenient rule Of
the railroad tariffs that for conven-
iehce Of figuring, all tariffs that end
in Q s are raised to the next highest
even figure. We now have 80 cents
as the rate. How do you like IL?
Coal freight rates from Crested
Butte are advanced from $1.OO and
$1.25 to $1.50 and $1.90, all for coal
% miles distant ON down hill pull.
We don't mind paying war taxes,
but this refined robbery by book
keeping gets our goat. It's time for
q municipal coal mine, operated by
tractors along county road.

TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY
SHEEP SLAUGHTERED BUTTES

A sensational sheep killing occurred
ut Crested Butte ON Fourth Of July
night, but very little is known yet con-
cerning the facts.
The trouble occurred up Slate river
near Pittsburg, where q Delta man,
named Campbell, was herding his
sheep. Three mased men suddenly
appeared about seven o'clock, seized
Campbell, tied his hands and feet and
threw him into the brush. They then
rushed the herd Of sheep over bluff,
killing and mangling . great number,
some reports have Il Is high Is $50
head. and Of course, that many sheep
In these times means several thOus-
and dollars worth Of meat and wool

: Campbell lay quiet until after the
men had gone, then he rolled over and
backed up against . large brush and
