the top of Mcclure pass, about eigh-
teen miles above the forks, and from
the pass down into the Crystal river
valley will be built later, II federal
aid can be secured. A number Of
Glenwood, Carbondale and Marble
people are working hard to get feder-
al aid for this project, which would
connect the Gunnison valley with the
Marble section on a good direct auto
road. The whole road from Somerset
into Marble would be on only q two
per cent grade Including both slopes
tai river about three miles below
Marble.
On account Of heavy rains on the
Muddy, those in the party went
no further than the new road, but
went back down the North Fork to
Grand Junction and then up the
Colorado to Glenwood Springs.
They found business at Marble
booming, with q population of over
400 as compared with . scant so Of
year ago.
Following the closing Of the mills
in 1917 by the government as nom
essential industry, Marble declined in
population within . few weeks to .
few miners and ranchmen of the
vicinity. The old Colorado Yule Mar
Bile company went into receivership,
and last year three groups of bond
holders, led by the Colorado National
Bank Of Denver, took over the proper
ty, which represented an outlay Of
five or six million dollars. A few
men were placed at work late last
season repairing the trolley lines Of
te company, but operations did not
begin On . big scale until this spring.
The Crystal River & San Juan rail-
road from CaEbondale to Marble, has
lain idle since 1917, and was badly in
need Of new ties and repairs. The
branch was re-opened this spring and
ON July 18th, the first train IN five
years pulled into the Marble yards.
The big Colorado Yule mill was start
ed on q small scale a few days ago,
about rs cutters and polishers being
at work. Another large gang il at
work repairing the roadbed Of the
electric trolley, having already re-
paired the trolley wires and poles.
Still more men are at work in the

Nm. {. Sweet sP6lKs
HERE 1UEsDAf NIGHT

William f. Sweet of Denver, sspir-
ant for the nomination on The Demo.
cratic ticket for governor in the fall
election, addressed q Gunnison audi
ence Tuesday night at the Community
Church, outlining in general his plat
form il chosen to lead the party tick
ct in November. Unfortunately his
talk was not very well advertised be-
beforehand and many interested eitiz-
ems failed to hear him.
Mr.. Sweet stated very emphatical-
ly that he was not member Of the
Non Partisan League, but is and al
ways has been a stanch Democrat
He explained his principles as to the
relation of capital and labor, and said
that If he were TO occupy the execu-
tive's chair he would use his influence
to direct and guide Legislation that
would give the laboring man o more
equitable share of the profits in all
industries wherein labor was one of
the chief factors.
The speaker very plainly condemned
the iniquitous ranger law, which has
cost US over half a million dollars in
the seven months of the existence of
the ranger force. About S75O,000 has
been spent building armories during
the past year, which Mr.. Sweet MAIN
tanned should have been more fitting
ly used in the erection of new school
buildings.
Mr.. Sweet is prominent Denver
business man, having been long iden-
titled with Sweet, Causey G. Foster,
in the brokerage business. He is con-
sidered business man Of Judgment
and ability, who would make an ex-
cellent executive If nominated and
elected. Accompanied by George
Hetherington of Gunnison, he is maxi
ing n speaking tour Of Western Colo
RADIO in the interests of his candidacy.

Candidates Meet Rough
Treatment in Budapest

Budapest, April 21.-A new occu-
patton, open only to young huskies
not afraid to fight at the drop of a
cabbage, has come into being here as
a result of intensive campaigning for
the pending elections.
Candidates opposing the govern
ment have met with such pronounced
hostility that they now employ as
many athletic young men as their
campaign funds will permit to act
as bouncers, body guards, spoilers
and shields for the speakers.
Opposition candidates decided to
buy protection after dozens of their
meetings had been broken up by
bands of the notorious awakening
Hungarians," who acquired remark
able skill at heaving cabbages and
soft tomatoes, ill-smelling bombs and
occasionally bricks during fits of
political enthusiasm.
The bonncers are stationed at va
riousapoints through the hall and
galleries and on the speakers plat
form. Those in the audience attempt
to quell disturbances at the source
but should stray vegetable break
loose and head for the stage, there
is always some of the hired help
ready to jump in front of the speak
er for an instant.
On rare occasions when there are
no disturbances, the huskies act as
claquers. In many of the gatherings
this is said to require almost as much
courage as speaking, for an outburst
of applause from any section of the
house is sure to bring a collection OF
missiles.

Fish Returned to Ocean

Miami, Fla, April 19.-With the ex-
ceptlon OF few specimens shipped to
institutions in New York and Phila-
delphia, the hundreds of fish in the
Miami Aquarium who exhibited them
selves during the winter to tourists
and home-folk interested in "fshoi-
ogy" have begun their summer vaca-
tions. They have been returned to the
Atlantic ocean and have headed to-
ward their native haLnts among the
Florida Keys or in the Gulf stream.
The glass tanks in the Aquarium,
which scientists say contain during
the winter months one of the greatest
varieties of marine life in the world,
are empty during the summer and are
so dry fiddler crab could hardly ex-
familiar with the habits of the various
species, go after them with nets, traps
and hook and line and in short time
have enough to restock them.
The job Of releasing the fish is a
difficult one and has reduced almost to
science. All winter the finny Wis
itors have lived off the fat of the land
and their food has come while they
have hardly Tipped fine for it. When
they are liberated it is different
story. Care must be taken to free the
smaller specimens first and give them
ample time to get out of the way of
the big fellows.
A curious feature is that some of
the fish which spent the winter in the
Aquarium and have just been liberat-
ed, will return to the tanks again in
the fall Caring for the fish day after
day, employees of the institution learn
to recognize various fnny guests by
scars or other markings and almost
invariably few of those released ir
the spring will be found in the tanks
again when the fishermen bring IL
fresh specimens.
