We were driving slowly along.
admiring the beauties of the seem
cry when suddenly we met two
young folks coming up the canyon
in a little yellow ear We all laugh
ed. for it was certainly a ticklish
place to meet a car. We were in
such a position that we were unable
to go either backward or forward,
and the driver of the yellow ar,
backed a short distance, and then
turned hard against the north wall
of the canyon, which was solid gran
lite at this point, and we Rugged the
very brink of the creek. and crept
past. Someone shouted. Pretty
close quarters" and the answer came
back, "Ill say 1t Isl"
In this canyon there are three saw
mills. and they could not have a
better location. The mountains there
afford ample timber for these mills
for years to come. Picking our way
carefully down the east slope OF the
|, mountains, and following the little
creek. we suddenly came to a water
fall, where the stream leaps over
a huge ledge of rocks. and splashes
into a deep dark pool some twenty
feet below. Here we looked for
'iout, uHu lOT d white WdtCHeu Une
dark rings of water widen and dis
appear and the white foam ride the
circles until the current caught it
and whirled 1t away down the noun
tain. Not far below the waterfall
is a huge dark cave, the mouth of
which opens by the roadside, the
cave extending back into the can
yon wall, and is excavated in the
solid rock. In there had been many
camps. made by pleasure seekers,
and in our opinion they could have
found no more suitable spot.
We were also quite interested in
the Pinto hills" Altho in our
estimation, not so grand as Luben
creek canyon, they are neverthe-
less quite a curiosity. They are a
series OF broken hills, which en-
brace about every color that a hill
could manage to be. The ground in
every direction is clothed TN the !
green Of springtime. and the quaint
little knobs and pinnacles arise sud
denly. as IL just to peep around be-
fore disappearing into the ground.
Some are light red, some dark red,
many are white, and even black ones
were no uncommon sight. These
queer little pinnacles gradually gave
, 1923-05-31

excellent crops. even tho the supply
OF moisture from now on il not
30 great.
On Wednesday we left Wheatland,
and after half \ day of padding
thru mud and water, we reached
Rock River. We came back thru
Halleck canyon. instead of Luben
creek. owing to the fact that we
were informed that some Of the
bridges in the latter had been wash
ed away, by the foods, OF tho past
few days. We found the entire
country soaked thoroughly, and
every water hole Oiled to It's capa-
city. When we arrived at Rock
River rain was again falling. and we
spent the evening and night with
The Franzen family. While there
the entire town. and I'VE" too. went
to the depot to see and welcome the
Omaha boosters, and enjoyed the
music furnished by their colored
band. OF curse 1t rained. and for
once we were thankful for
the snow sheds over the U. p. tracks
In Rock River. The boosters of
course, gave samples of their ARE
to the ladies and little folks, which
afforded lots Of amusement for all.
We SullC Oul vi tuc Iu6cIlnS III pOS-
session Of a dust cap. a thimble,
some candy. a package of jello, a
package Of coffee. a little balloon,
and goodness only knows what all.
The train pulled out all too soon,
and the boosters who had gone over
town to peep into the business hous-
es were compelled to hurry. Twenty
minutes Of real excitement soon
passes away.
On Thursday we arrived back
home to find that the ranch was Just
as we had left It. and that the
folks even had the same old dog.
The Finkbiner family are in Boul-
der, Colorado, where they went a
week ago, taking with them, Mrs.
mother, Mrs. Blanchard,
who had been the guest of the fam
lily for several days.

A number Of horsemen are busy
this week rounding up horses, among
them being, the Nelson boys. Silta-
maxi, Withrow. Ellis and schmale.
Shearing is in full blast at the
johnson ranch. The hard rains Of
last week, somewhat delayed opera

OF the past few days, great progress
has been made.

Sunday. Mrs. Joseph Norris will
sail for England in the near future,
where she will spend the summer. :
Tho Ekoia boys wore awarded the
horse. over which trouble has arisen.
The case was tried before Judge
Sammons. on Saturday last. Matt
Ekola bought the horse some time
ago from Jack Fairman, who had
gotten the horse from the Snyder
boys. The Snyders say he was not
paid for, and they came to Ekola's
and got him. Later, Gust Nelson
bought the horse from Snyders, and
then Matt Ekola replevied him. The
Ekola boys now have possession of
the animal.

hills. When VI reached the top Of
the divide we looked away to the
east, where we saw in the far dis
lance, the farms in Platte county.
which were made so conspicuous by
the fields Of green alfalfa. The sight
was to be admired.
We then drove into the timber.
and started down the mountains. For
many miles we travelled thus, when
we emerged into the open once more.
at a large sheep ranch, where we
behe'd woolies OF every size. We
did not learn to whom this outfit
belonged, but It seemed quite i'm
|tportant and the ranch was quite ex-
tensive also. Several miles farther
we ran onto the flats which are
as thickly covered with soap weed,
as u ranges in this part are with
sage brush and grease wood. Here
we saw the first range cattle on our
trip. Some Of them. were white
faces. but many were lust plain cat
tie" There seemed to be a great
many of them, and their condition
was fairly good. We saw one lone
antelope up near old Rock Creek,
but aside from that, we saw nothing
in the shape Of wild animals or game.
We crossed a steel bridge over the
Laramie river, and about ten mill
es more brot US into Wheatland.
The town is pretty as ever, and the
trees we're in leaf. Many flowers
were blooming. The elevation Of
Wheatland is more than two thou
sand feet lower than here, and Of
course vegetation Is earlier. We
went straight to the hospital, where
found our folks well and hearty.
At the hospital in training for a
nurse along with many others is
Miss Horton, daughter of Mr.. Hor-
ton, who used to be sheriff Of our
county.
While in the Platte county metro
polls we met and visited with Mr..
and Mrs. Henry Clark, who years
ago. resided at Elk Mountain and in
old Carbon, and who will be re-
membered by many old timers OF
both places. Mr.. Clark clerks in

also met and enjoyed a good visit
with Walter Halves. former editor
Of the Rock River Review. He is
now managing the Wheatland Times,
and very successfully too.
On Sunday noon 1t began rain
and after continuing steady for
many hours, on Wednesday morning
the water was tearing around the
depot like a miniature river, and
part Of the Colorado Southern tracks
washed out. The country had
received a thorough soaking. which

To The Republican:
Owing to the fact that we have
been strictly "on the CAD" lately,
we have sadly neglected our duties
to the Republican. Spring is with
US at last in all It's beauty, and q
trip by auto is certainly a treat,
providing one doesn't get caught in
a heavy rainstorm. or have other
misfortunes. However. we were
very fortunate, and had only the
best of luck. The trip which we
have enjoyed most was the n ia
ken to the eastern part of the state
last week.
On Saturday morning we left for
the Wheatland country, 1--WE mean
our better half and y. and after
enjoying a good meal at the Virgin
ian hotel in Medicine Bow, we left
at 2 P. NJ, eastward bound. When
we arrived at the sign board about
a mile north OF Rock River. and
which reads, Marshall, Garrett,
and followed the road which led
straight east.
We crossed Rock Creek and later
passed old Rock Creek station,
which now stands alone on the
prairie, deserted by trains and rail-
road This was at one time a busy
station, and in fact a little town,
which during the roundup season,
was an important point for cow
boys, and could the old town tell
it's story, we might all be well in
terested for it saw the passing Of
the frontier days. The trip was un-
eventful until we reached the Lar
annie mountains.
Allow us to say that IL anyone
Is thirsting for a scenic road, it will
be well to travel this one. The road
winds in and out. up and down many
times b~acktracking itself in order
to find a place of ascension or de-
scension. Up and up we went, al
ways thinking that the peak ahead
would surely be the summit, but
when We gained the height Of that
one, still another and higher one
was before us. The mountains are
covered with pine trees tall and
slender, limbless for many feet from
the ground. with branches of close
1y tufted needles at the top. When
we came to Luman creek. the beaut-
les were indescribable. The canyon
is deep and narrow.
The timber is dense everywhere.
and down along the pretty little
stream of q water a road has
been graded. The stream is span
ned by dozens of bridges, for as
1t winds from one side of the can
yon to the other, it is necessary to
cross it many times. The road is
wide enough for one car, but GER
tainly not for two. Blasted out
along h solid rock walls of the
V and making many sharp
turns, causes hundreds OF signs to
be posted, warning the traveller to
drive slow to avoid dangers.
Tier upon tier OF solid rock forms
the walls OF the canyon in many
places. and a slide or offset, where
the winds of centuries have blown
sand and soil. forms a foothold for
the tall straight pines which thrive
so wonderfully in every nook and
corner. Along the creek. growing
with the pines are dense groves o.
aspens, and cottonwoods. and wild
plum thickets are to be found all
the way down the east slope of the
mountains. The plums were in full
blown, and only those who actually
had the pleasure OF beholding them,
can imagine their beauty or frag-
ance. 1--WE gathered arms full of
them and took them with us to the
hospital at Wheatland).
