FORMER ROAD
FOREMAN IS
ARRESTED

Ike Taylor, well known citizen Of
the North Fork valley, was brought
TO Gunnison under arrest last night
and arraigned before Justice Napier,
charged with filching powder from the
county road camp last spring and cx-
changing it for bootleg whiskey. He
waived examination and was bound
over to the district court under $500
bond, in default Of which he is still in
the county jail. 1t is rumored that
Mr.. Taylor has confessed in part and
has secured the services of Attorney
Shipley of Paonia. who will be in to-
night to secure the bond.
Taylor was arrested in Paonia. but
the alleged crime was committed at
the road camp on the Anthracite some
time last May or June. Taylor had
been in charge of road building opera
tions in fclmer seasons, and was CONF
sidered hustler and efficient workman
in the business. However, Elmer Wi
ley was road superintendent for Com
missioner Whalen in 1921, and during
his temporary abseuce the cagp be-
came somewhat delporaliZed by the
abundance of moonshine appearing.
Upon his return, Mr.. Wiley discovered
that large quantities of government
INT were missing. b. discbarging n
number of suspects the pilfering was
stopped and the moonshine business
reduced TO 4 minimum, but not suff-
cient actual evidence was available
against Taylor at that time. How
ever, one Tony Bear was arrested and
confessed to his part in the deal, tho
this confession, given at the fall term
of district court, has not been made
public as yet.
1t is supposed that the authorities
finally got the goods on Taylor, and
that he came thru with confession,
the details of which will be more gen.
orally known at the April term of
court.

IMPORTANT COLORADO RIVER
HEARING At GRAND JUNCTION

The defense Of future interests of
Gunnison county and the Western
Slope against claims of California, Ar
izona and other states which touch the
Colorado river lower down, will be
looked after by Engineer j. II. Robin
son, who leaves the first of the week
for Grand Junction where a hearing
will be conducted by Secretary Hoover
in the controversy which is arising
over distribution of the waters Of this
great stream, on one of the tributaries
of which Gunnison lies.
The proposed development of the
Colorado Is one of the mighticst pro-
jccts ever undertaken in America. 1t
involves the spending of more money
for reservoirs, power plants, irrigated
projects, etc. than the Panama Canal
!, cost. II is the contention of California
and of many government engineers
that the waters should be divided pro-
portionally between the states affected,
especially waters available for irriga-
tion. The proposal is to take 60 to 20
per cent for the great irrigation pro-
jects in lower valleys, leaving only 80
to 40 per cent for the headwater states
like Colorado.
a hearing before Secretary Hoover
and his board of investigators will be
held in the Junction next Wednesday,
March Goth, following recent hearings
all along the stream. If decision is
made to curtaikthe possibility of ir-
rigation in Western Colorado for the
benefit of California, it means a de-
finite limit to the possibility of agri-
cultural developments here III future
years. Consequently the Gunnison
Chamber of Commerce, assisted by the
county commissioners, has decided that
our county should be represented, and
Engineer Robinson has agreed to &c
down with much data to present.
| 1t will be Mr.. Robinson's contention
that any possible irrigation which car
take place upon upper reaches of the
Colorado will be of actual benefit TO
the stability and quantity of the
stream flow lower down. Instead OF

OBITUARIES OF TWO
OLD GUNN|s0N|TEs

(By C. f. Adams, editor of Montrose
Press and Grand Junction News.)
When I.picked up the "old home
paper" the Gunnison News-Champion,
last week and read the account of the
death of two of my old friends, Kirk H.
Fowler, and Charles April, was pain
ed, and was brought face to face with
the fact that the days are passing
fast and we are older than we used to
be. And, too, that one by one the old
landmarks are disappearing from my
old home, Gunnison, the place where
i spent my youth and young manhood.
and where SO many of the friends
made then still reside.
/ can picture my old friend, MIR.
Fowler, as used to see him SO often
while both boy and man; always so
erect, always with kindly word for
me, always a friend. / believe / re-
member him more as a boy than in lat
er years, for the early impression
got of him has always remained with
me.
When was newsboy in Gunrjson
in the early eighties, ! carried . paper
to his door every evening. It was
somewhere in the "west" town, but
cannot now recall the house. So many
times he would meet me at the door

not have whistles in those days like
they do now, nor did they have bi.

CHAMBER or COMMERCE GETS
BUSY ON PLAN To RELIEVE
SUMMER HOUSE SHORTAGE
ZONES or regular dormitories.

homes or regular dormitories.
The situation was explained by
President Quigley, who told Of the diff
ficulties encountered in housing sum-
mer students, and stated that last sum-
mer, 200 students were turned away
thru lack of quarters. He felt that
the time had come when the growth of
the school would be seriously hamper
ed thru this lack of accommodations
unless immediate action was taken.
He advanced plan for colony of
summer cottages to be erected on the
property just southwest of the Normal
buildings, formerly q part of the Col
Inns property and facing north on Ohio
avenue. He stated that three-uom
cabin could be built for about Sill,
This would include small kitchenettc
and dining room combined, small
bed room and a larger room which
could be used as living room or as
another bed room. The house would
require cheap kitchen stove and a
minimum of furniture, and would cost,
complete, in the ncighborhood of $3.50.
A central bath house would supply the
colony, sewer connections being made
and surface water line to each house.
The finances Of the school are so low
rs to provide only operating expenses
and the dormitories SO badly needed
will have to wait another year at least.
DIR. Quigley suggests that such clti-
zens of the town as are financially able
put up at least one Of these little
houses each, and the summer rental
would return him $3.50 on his $3.50
investment. At any time he wanted
to dispose Of the cabin, the school or
some one would take it at the original
price. DIR. Quigley felt that the Nor
NAL Board would pass a resolution
protecting the builders from loss in
the matter. A special committee,
consisting of Z. G. Palmer, B. II.
Jorgensen and John A. Steele,
OF the Chamber of Commerce,
assumed the duty of working up this
proposition and soliciting the people
of the town at oncc-in the hope Of
building at least thirty Of these houses.
Eight were subscribed at once by
members of the Chamber present.
The March meeting and luncheon Of
the Chamber of Commerce was held
Wednesday night at the Gunnison Ho-
tel and Tea Room. Fifty members
were present. The first three meet
ings of 1922 have shown an increased
attendance over 1921 of about thirty
per cent, and about fifteen new men,
bers have been added. There are now
over sixty paid members in the CHAM
Der, and the goal of this years MEM
bership is 100.
Miss Elizabeth Nourse sang two vo-
cal numbers and Miss Alpha Sigfrid
entertained with violin selections, both
being accompanied by Miss Hazel May
at the piano. These musicians from
the Normal were heartily applauded.

what he called 'Ideals," but which
turned out to be full of practical and
useful ideas for the improvement OF

appeal by President Harding to the

Harding has consulted with Attor-
ney General Daugherty to ,earn IL any
legal steps can be taken by the gov

stood that Daugherty said he knew OF
no such steps.

is possibility that the Railroad Broth
erhoods with two and half million
membership may give their support
to the striking members.
This was seen in the admission from
the brotherhood officials that "pro-
tective agreement" between the miners
and the brotherhoods doubtless will re-
ceive the sanction Of the railroad
brotherhoods.

lola EGG CASE HAS
ANOTHER HEARING IN COURT

Another chapter in the lola "egg
case" in which Mrs. Anna Belle Bur-
tiss last fall accused Earl Mullin of
assault on the person of her little
daughter, by throwing rotten eggs at
her.
When this case was heard in Justice
Florer's court, he dismissed the case
brot by the prosecuting attorney and
assessed the costs on the complaining
witness, Mrs. Burtiss. The latter, BY
her attorneys, Stone & Kochevar, then
carried the case to the county court
on a writ Of Certiorari. This was
heard by Judge McDougal yesterday,
the side Of the People not being rep
resented, Judge McDougal decided that
the complaining witness having con-
vinced the prosecuting attorney that
her evidence was ample, should not
have the costs to pay, and they are
now assessed against the people.
What the county commissioners will
do when asked to pay them, is the
third chapter Of the case.
