ONE PARROT THAT HAD
REAL CAUSE TO SWEAR.

Men employed by the Rose Lake
Lumber company in repairing the
road in Fourth of July canyon
one day last week We're attracted
by the sound. of profanity the like
of which they had never heard
before in a lumber camp. AS
there was no apparent occasion
for this outburst, and in fact no
one in view from whom it could
come, they We're in quandary to
locate the source from which it
emanated. Going down the road
to a muddy section. about mid
way of which a pointed rock pro-
jected to the edge of the road
way, they discovered perched up
on a small tree above the rock
embankment parrot, and the
language that he was turning out
was of the variety that would
place Private O'Rourke In the
class of amateurs. How the bird
got there was soon explained by
the discovery of battered cage
in the muddy road from which he
had escaped. He was perfectly
willing to be captured and is now
receiving the best of care at the
big logging camp of the Rose
Lake Lumber company in the can
yon. 1t appears that the parrot
belonged to tourists who We're
motoring through the canyon, and
that the cage was tied on the run
ming board of the car. In passing
through the muddy road it was
evident from the track that the
car struck the projecting rock and
broke the parrot cage from its
moorings. The occupants of the
car We're too much absorbed in
getting out of the muck to miss
the parrot, thus for the first time
giving him an opportunity that
fully justified the fluent use Of
his acquired vocabulary.

Shipping and Smelling Charges.

ore, in the absence of pleading and
proof as to the cost of shipping the
ore or the charge for smelling the ore,
an innocent purchaser for value from
persons who had taken the ore from
plaintiffs claim by an unlawful tres
pass thereon is not entitled to a re-
covery of the shipping and smelling
charges. A location made by persons
on ground already covered by valid

the war and which they will maintain
until the end. Democrats who are
now seeking reelection have shown
inefficiency in the performance OF
their official duties, have failed to en-
force the laws, have neglected or re-
fused to improve important highways,
and have spent an enormous sum for
the construction, equipment and
maintenance of county institution
without consulting the taxpayers who
must pay the bill, when such an in
stitution could have been provided
with ample accommodations for one
fifth of the amount. These are some
of the questions that will confront
the democratic candidates in this
county during the brief period that
remains until the election, and with
the bond drive out of the way the re-
publicans propose to force the issues
with an earnestness that will bring
these questions to the attention of the
voters in all parts of the county. 1t
will no be a brass band campaign
nor speech making campaign, nor
a personal abuse campaign; but it will
nevertheless bring the democratic
record of extravaganza and ineffi-
cheney in this county to the attention
of the voters, and that is all that Is
necessary to insure complete change
in the county administration.

LOST PLACER.
Attempts to Find 1t Have Been
Abandoned Until Spriru,


The lost placer of Cayuse creek will
remain lost until next spring at least
Paul Johnson, sturdy prospector and
miner of this city, who undertook to
rediscover the mysterious dggings
has returned and owing to the APP
preach of bad weather will not renew
the attempt until next spring. Cayuse
creek is tributary of Kelly creek,
which was formerly known as the
Middle Fork of the Clearwater. Upon
securing all available data regarding
the location of the lost mine, Mr..
Johnson secured an outfit at Mssoula,
consisting of pack horses, tools and
provisions, and started on his quest
for the lost diggings, going in by way
of Lolo pass. This was in August.
Upon his arrival at Moose City, on
Kelly creek. he heard of the passage
of the new draft law and the require
ment for all men within the prescrib-
ed age to register on September II,
and also the news Of the death of his
father. Under these circumstances he
was compelled to abandon the search
and return home, but fully resolved to
return in the spring as early as wea-
Their conditions will permit.
The story of this lost mine of Cay
use creek was first published in the
Miner of September II, and like all
much interest among adventurous
spirits, and when spring comes Mr..
Johnson will no doubt have numer-
Gus competitors in the race to find the
lost mine.

WORK OR FIGHT ORDER
TO BE ENFORCED IN LAND

There is much discussion over the
details Of the "work or fight" order
recently reported from Washington,
and as we understand it the law is NOT
yet applicable to the nation except
IN 50 far as it applies to the men Of
draft age.
Rules promulgated on Monday call
upon all citizens to at once report TO
the nearest local draft board the
names Of all men within draft age who
are habitually idle, or who are not en-
ployed productivity. This includes
the "lounge lizards, counter jump
ers. Il won't works., spool hall ID
lers" and the like. !

Gunnison, the council Of defense n

vass, not only Of ranches and mines
that need labor, but Of idlers, whether

EXCURSION RATES FOR TEACH
ERS CANCELLED BY McADOO

There will be few excursion rates
so long as Uncle Sam has charge OF
the ticket window. He is opposed to
all such irregularities except in the
matter Of free trip to the front, and
one cent mile for soldiers on fur
Tough.
All rates are withdrawn June 10th
even to cancelling mileage and scrip
tickets.
Later this week an announcement
has come of some summer excursion
trips. altho at a much higher rate.
For instance from Denver to Gunni-
son the round trip fare will be 1914
instead Of $13.45 as last year. To
Lake City it will be $21.72.
Even the reduced rates to schools
like the summer Normal at Gunnison
were cancelled in the general sweep
Of the order, but DR.. Kelley is making
strenuous efforts to have them re-es-
tablished in time for the opening of
school on June II. II he does not sue

fare.

PUT RACK REDUCED RATES no
SCHOOLS AND EDUCATIONAL
GATHERINGS

The Withdrawing Of these reduced
rates to schools should Of course be
immedi4tely repaired. II may be too
late to help the summer sessions but
~ we understand the railroad officials
refuse to lend any assistance in the
matter, 1t should Be taken directly ov-
er their heads by the school men Of
Colorado, Il necessary to the presi-
dent.
Did you ever hear Of . more ridicu-
lous proposition? All rates are first
withdrawn. Then towns folks who
want to go fishing are granted
q rate because they were able to reach
ths heads of the railroads, thru that
peculiar psychology which fishermen
operate when the days get warm.
However, the school teachers, and the
students to aihundred and one summer
schools, are forced to stay ut home
perhaps. because the railroad officials
advising Secretary McAdoo, do not
appreciate the fact that education is
more vital than fishing. This should
be remedied and the railroad men If
necessary compelled to face an awak-
ened public opinion. We are certain
the newspaper men Of Colorado will
take hand in that game.

A business change Of considerable
note took place last Saturday, when
the firm Of Ferguson and Williams,
(express, coal and transfer) dissolved
and was replaced by that of Williams
and Miller. After some thirty years
Of active business life, Pierce Fergu-
son decided TO take deserved rest
and sold his interest with Jerry Will
liams to Clinton H. Miller. Mr.. Miller
is well known to the business world
about Gunnison, not only from his ex-
perience in the carpenter business
and ~ town marshal, but for some
thing over q year he has been the man.
ager of the Endner Hardware Store.
His place in the latter establishment
has been taken by d. L. Gray, who
bring TO his new job long experience in
the store business at Vulcan and else
where. Success to the new business
