CITY COUNCIL AUTHORIZES EMPLOY.
MENT OF MAN TO take Care Of
fire TRUCK and ORDERS
FIRE PHONES INSTALLED

At a recent meeting OF the City
Council a committee from the Raw
Inns Rotary Club appeared and pre-
scented to the Council a definite plan
for the better fire protection of
Rawlins.
This committee. which comprised
Jas. Potts. H. J. Rogner, Gus
Fleishli and w. S. Anderson. thor
oughly investigated the fire situation
in Rawlins both as to the alarm sys-
TEN as we'll as to the fire fighting
system.
The committee reported that one
of the greatest dangers from fire in
Rawlins is in getting an alarm to
the firemen. The committee recon-
mended Thai the city investigate an
automatic fire alarm system that
would automatically give the .ap-
approximate location Of a fire at the
time the alarm is sounded. In the
meantime and as a temporary ar
rangemcnt the committee recon-
mended that a telephone be placed In
the boiler house at the shops n
another placed in the fire house at
the City Hall. Both these phones to
be on the same line and to ring at
the same time.
The council last night authorized
the Telephone company to install
these two phones Immediately.
The committee also recommended
that a man be employed by the city
to take care Of the fire truck, fire
hose, fire room. etc, and at all times
to have the fire fighting apparatus
in condition for immediate use. A
room will be constructed at the fire
house for this man.
The city last night authorized h
hiring Of this all-time man and
ordered that the first thing done be
the tuning up OF the fire truck.
The committee from the Rotary
Club and the city officers contem-
plate q conference with the fire chief
and assistant fire chief for the pur-
pose Of inaugurating some plan
whereby the members OF the depart
.ment will be able to be notified Of
possible moment.
At the city meeting last night
claims against the city were audited
and ordered paid.
An ordinance regulating dances In
Rawlins and providing for the
proper supervision OF all public
dances was presented to the Board
by the City Attorney. This ordinance
was drawn up in accordance with in
structions OF Mayor Kell and the
Trustees and quite fully covers the
dance situation here. In our next
weeks Issue we will publish his
| ordinance In full.
An ordinance regulating the con-
~struc.ion of buildings In Rawltns and
requiring a building permit for all
work was passed by the council.
Three new street lights were or
| dered installed in the South Side
addition.
Marshal Hillenbrand and other
city officers we're instructed to take
drastic action to prevent the malici-
ous destruction of property in the
= city by a certain few boys who have
been causing considerable trouble
lately.

MILLION DOLLARS over 1920. OIL Interests ACCOUNT
FOR PRINCIPAL INCREASE in The COUNTY

despite a large decrease in the value
of livestock in the county the total

$4,000. 900 more than it was for the
year 1920.

counted for in the increased va1ua-
ton of our oil fields and increased
valuation of public utilities.

FORMAL TRANSFER OF SARATOGA &
ENCAMPMENT RAILWAY MADE TO
union PACIFIC TUESDAY LAST

At Encampment IN Tuesday last
the management of the Saratoga e.
Encampment Railway passed from
Morse Bros. to the Union Pacific.
The Union Pacific has already be-
gun the up-buflding of this branch
line and has purchased thousands of
ties to be used in rebuilding the
roadbed.
Two new engines of the 1900 class
have been purchased by the Union
Pacific and are now on the ground
to be used by the U. P. on this road.
Assistant General Auditor wilkins
and Travelling Auditor l.. J. Neuner
were at Encampment representing
the Union Pacific at the transfer OF
the management of the road.
The Union Pacific has taken over
the Saratoga & Encampment for a
period of three years. At the end
Of that time the U. P. has an option
to buy the road il they so desire. II
the U. P. does not take over the S.
& e. at the end of the three year
period the road goes back to the
wners and the U. p. pays interest
for the three years the road has been
under its management.
The people of Carbon county are
determined to make the Saratoga and
Encampment a paying railway and
will cooperate with the Union
Pacific to the fullest extern to keep
the road busy.
1t Is the desire of all people in this
county to see the S. & f. and intre-
gal part of the wonderful Union
Pacific system and all realize that
the proper support of the road for
the next three years will cause it to
be purchased by the Union Pacific
and made part OF that system.
The Union Pacific will do its ut
most to make the Saratoga and En-
campment a paying proposition and
will Immediately inaugurate several
changes hat will mean much econ
omy at the same time increasing the
efficiency of the road.

ST0CkMEN MEETING
ADVISORY COMMITTEE or CARRoN
COUNTY WO0LGROwER'S ASS0CIA.
ton NET WITH The FOREST
OFFICIALS FRIDAY LAST

The regular fall meeting of tn,
Advisory Board Of the CarboT
County Wool Growers Association
was held on October 2Sth at the par
lors of the First National Bank.
A. L. Richie. supervisor of the
Arapahoe National forest; Jas. Black,
hall. supe wiser Of the Hayden Ma.
tion al Forest: Ray Peck, supervisor
Of the Routt National Forest and H,
C.. Hilton. supervisor of the Medicine
Bow National Forest, were all in
Rawlins for this annual meeting.
Messrs. w. W. Daley. w. A. Nc
Kay. Abe Stratton, VIM. Daley, John
X. HART and L. E. Viyion were pres
ent representing the Wool Growers
Association.
During the meeting a discussion
took place concerning the necessity
Of cutting down the present number
OF sheep or the Hayden Forest be-
cause of overstockod conditions. 1t
was determined. however, that 1t
would probably be possible to trans
fer some preference sheep from the
Hayden and Medicine Bow to the
Araphoe Forest where there is ex-
cess sheep range and relieve condi-
tions upon the Hayden.
Discussion relative to possible
changes in grazing fees resulted in
an explanation being made of the
any appraisal o being prepared
at the request of Congress to deter
mine the value of the different range
allotments in which all factors Of
accessibility, kind of feed. and haz-
ards OF the range will be considered.
No changes in grazing fees will be
made until after the completion of
the range appraisal in 1923.
The Board was particularly in
terested in the work of destruction
of predatory animals, particularly
coyotes which are reported to be on
the increase. Reports indicated the
work being done by hunters OF the
Biological Survey and private hunt
ers but 1t was considered advisab BILE
that larger appropriations should be
made available for the use Of the
Biological Survey.
Reference was made to the taking
over OF the Saratoga and Encamp-
ment Railroad by the Union Pacific
which would insure good service to
the sheep owners. In connection
with the possible abandonment OF
the Mofat Road. It vas brought ont
that should this occur It would mean
that sheep from the. Aput4 and A<ai
phoe Forests would necessarily have
to be trailed to points on the 8. & e.
r. r.. or the C. w. 4 E.. r. r. The
Advisory Board requested the Forest
Service to provide such driveways II
needed.
The agreement entered into in
1909 with the Snake River Cattle
Association was renewed by the Wool
Growers Association for q period OF
five years.
The Advisory Board also went on
record as commencing the manner
in which sheep grazing Is admins
tered by the Forest Service within
the National Forests. p
