have since found that our fencing
job was more elaborate than neces-
sary. However, there are few places
where SO little fences closes so much
area. A short section from the first
gorge did the job at each end of the
pasture. The rest of the fencing con-
sists of walls of the canyon.
On September 80, 1924, six buck
and six doe were received from Reno,
Nevada These had been caught
while only day old fawns and were
raised on an ordinary nursing bottle
by the u. S. Bureau of Biological
Survey. All Of the animals were ex-
ceedingly tame, and have remained
so to this day.
All Of the preliminary work had
now been done, and the antelope
were now in the park. The next prob
lem was to transport these timid and
delicate animals over seven miles of
trail that wound down over the cam
yon walls from the rim to Hermit
Camp. Many methods were suggest
ed including the carrying of each
animal by hand. However, it seemed
that the most logical method was to
pack them in on mules. Each animal
arrived securely Grated, and the
crates were small enough to be tied
on a pack animal. However, the lirl-
certain elements were the antelope
and the mules. We did not know how
the fawns would act when they
were put on a mule, or how this tra-
ditionally stubborn animal would act
under live load. The results show
ed that our worries were entirely
unnecessary. The packs were put on,
and no trouble Of any kind was en-
countered during the trip. During
the packing operations, one of the
fawns got his leg out between the
crate and the mule and was so bad
" injured that he later died. We
learned a lessen from this which will
be applied in the future. The only
compensating feature was the fact
that he was buck instead of a doe
and there were enough bucks left
anyway.
In weighing the ultimate success
of this experiment, several things
must be taken into consideration. In

of the navy said. "a democratic vie,

leaders are wise enough to concen-

short sighted men who would be di-
verted to the rabid path of liquor.
They are insulting the American
people if they think for moment
they can make the issue on appetite
for, or against liquor"
Mr.. Daniels made no direct refer

cratic presidential candidates.

pointed out that assessed valuation
cf property in the county shows {"
loss from a peak of $176,0S9, 879.17
III the year 1920 to $107763,44 III
the year 1926.
He then called attention to the
fact that the cost of running the
county, during the same period Of
time, mas increased from $931,25O.49
in the year 1917 and reaches peak
OF cost in year 1921 Of $1.7S6,426.7i
and for the subsequent years a
slight reduction until the year 1925
the cost amounted to $1,6O7, 1881.
In other words, what the tax
payers OF the county are faced with
is the fact that while the assessed
value of all properties has decreased
by about $7O,0O0,000.00, the cost OF
county government has increased by
some S70O,O00.0O in the last ten years
