tact fact we are realizing next sunday february eth 1932 will dawn the city second birth birthday dayt or of the park record it seems but yes yesterday t erday as it were that the writer arrived in park on his first trip up from salt lake tor for a weeks week rest and change from night work as compositor on the salt lake tribune to work with JIM 5 hupbach up bach the rounder founder of the record while cammy L E camomile the then regular compositor and handy man on the record took a week off to visit his bis girl in the metropolis tills this was in june 1880 tempus fugit and here it Is considerable over halt half a century since that time and continuously through all these years has the record consistently and energetically aided to the very best ot of its ability in the up building the betterment and advancement ot of park city and its one industry mining with what success the patrons ol of the paper must i be the judge I 1 in n our community during the fifty two I 1 years year s we have seen teeming prosperity as well viell as occasional periods of depression but never in our long experience have we seen such distressing and disheartening conditions as exist in our community today with its one industry hit harder than ever belore before with consequent unemployment and tree free soup house as heretofore unheard of and of possibility in our good old campana cam camp and all because became of selfish unjust forcing down don of the price of silver and the baser metals by the boarders hoar ders and manipulators pula tors of gold and sanctioned by those now in control of this the gi greatest eanest government under the sun and thus we start today on our fifty third year while naturally distressed with the rest of the world we have not lost faith in the future of park city we know that right will prevail and that the strenuous efforts now being put forth by the earnest advocates of the ot of silver will be vIctor victorious lous that Is all that Is necessary tor for a greater and moie prosperous park city than ever before in its long history for we still have unlimited resources of mineral in the confines of our mining district with progressive mining companies willing and anxious to expend millions in development thus giving employment to thousands and this in turn bringing back business prosperity in which the record will share and all will be well and with this well founded optimism we ve greet our readers and patrons with volume no 53 no 1 ot of the park record summit countes coun tys oldest and always reliable weekly newspaper fi

1 I 1 i dear dad looking back over some of the haid winters of the eighties I 1 am Inell inclined ned to believe that the detthof dep snow in the mountains about park city was far greater than in any years since my experience was largely at the head of hhaynes canyon near the high mountain tops of the big cottonwood canyon the danger of not only depended on the snow fall but on the kind of storm and especially as to how the vind bind blew and the drifts formed or combed over the high ridges dangerous slide conditions prevailed also beu there came a heavy snow that settled solidly and the surface froze on oil this other stoics came and the snow drifted or combed above steep places or mountain faces and became a source of danger clanger just juet what hat would start a slide was sometimes a mystery and has prompted much speculation and many stories such as aa a rifle shot in the air or even a loud shout tear lear the starting point the weight 0 of a man or cutting across a slide region gion to say nothing of certain superstitions ions as to signs bird calls etc settling oi of the snow Is perhaps the usual cause once started a soon gathers tremendous tr emen dous force and carries all before it breaking down and uprooting trees even carrying loose rock and earth as the large avalanche gains momentum pirk city Is so no situated as to be safe fr from OM Snow slides the mining camp town ot of alta in little cottonwood canyon was not so fortunate la its location it suffered several times and during the eighties a great slide swept over the town taking a number ol of mens lives and greatly damaging the town I 1 saw raw the place the next summer and the snow irom from the slide was still some forty teet feet deep in places and filled with wreckage ot of houses while mining at the jupiter property in hhaynes canyon in the eighties there was as one winter in particular that I 1 counted over a dozen slides all were not on the order ot of the avalanche many slides elides followed loll owed the beaten track ol of previous slides elides as great storms ot of snow and wind continued I 1 and two other men were extending a long tunnel into the base of the hill during that long winter As repeated storms and drifting deepened the snow n about the e mouth ol of the tunnel we added in all six sets of timber to cover the track beyond this the wind helped to keep the track clear to the edge ot of the big dump beside the tunnel mouth was a blacksmith shop so 80 burbled that candle light was required to see ee to w work 0 rk late one afternoon we fired a round of shots in the tunnel face ace and went out to sharpen tools near the outside tie paused bed to count the shots following which we heard a great roar that I 1 puzzled puzzle e Z 1 I s until we reached the tunnel mouth out T then i en we found that a gortat snow tilde elide had passed and cleaned kofl W ill all the ibbers timbers and blacksmith bhoj tools and all 1 I sweeping the ground bare baie below the dump was a huge pile ot of snow and a 0 wild contusion confusion ot of dead trees brou brought g letdown down from the mountain side had we V B been a little sooner getting out of the tunnel we too w would 0 uld have been some where in that vas vast t pile ot of snow and timber and no one the wiser perhaps tor for weeks from the same tunnel to the cabin we walked some fifteen hundred feet alons along the base ol of the hill bill we were compelled to pass over the broad track ol of a course over which four slides passed during that winter but the slides all happened at night there were times when I 1 felt like making a run of 0 it as I 1 crossed this dangerous way in the cabin we ve felt safe safer it had been built under and in line with a great out cropping ridge of sharp edged rock that ran up the hill face jn in a vertical direction at the top was a dangerous drift line As the starting there came down the ledge would split the slide parts going each side of the cabin one night a slide came down with enough overflow to take part of our cabin root roof away just over the bunk ol of a swede I 1 had bad employed As he roused up lip and shook off some snow he muttered by ails root roof leak like hell an on another occasion we were late in the fall trying to finish the surveying ot of a group ot of A mining claims in the near vicinity described when heavy storms of an eaily winter caught us mr robert gorlinski was the surveyor we were compelled to stay indoors for or some days and finally got out in deep snow in an effort to finish some lines and setting some stakes surveying about the tops of high peaks and ridges we on several occasions took some dangerous chances of going down with gleat giat snow drifts perhaps good luck made gorlinski less cautious we were nearly through our work when hen we ve undertook to run a line along the upper face of a steep mountain side while mr gor and were setting and marking a stake I 1 took ok the surveyors compass instrument on say shoulder Bh and made my way across a dangerous i slide area that I 1 well knew 1 I crossed high up and took long careful steps through the snow and reached a rock outcrop on oil the other side there I 1 sat eat down and waited As mr Cor borlinski linski I 1 and peterson started across I 1 called a I 1 warning to them to step in my tracks I 1 slid and come slowly one at a time and stop I 1 talking I 1 I 1 suppose this sounded very much like a joke to gorlinski and they came on oil together walking as they pleased and talking when they reached a point or one e third of the way across the snow cracked and suddenly started at this point the snow was not very deep a ew feet so they were simply tumbled oft off their teet feet and going over and over lilg to stand up they were canted can led as a in a snow stream the descent grew steeper steep r lary rapidly and whirled them faster and taster faster on their way down the mountain face the way had been cleaned by former slides in other winters there was no trees or brush or rock rocks s in ili the way ay but gorlinsky had beer been carried to the side aide there an inclined tree perhaps the wreck ot of a former slide hung out a etrone dead limb as he be passed under this limb in some almost miraculous way Gorli came head end up and he be grabbed that limb with both hands and hung on I 1 shall never forget that picture Pic tuie hair pompadour ed with ground in snow face scrubbed blood red by the grindl grinding grindling ng snow and ice there he hung while the flood of trailing snow beneath

together gorlinski and I 1 upon reaching the bottom where the snow was packed solid began to to search tor for peterson we had no shovels not even it a stick with which to dig in the hard snow in a

said that the present transition of agriculture irom from an unorganized basis constitutes the most hopeful tea ture of the present agricultural situation the operative cooperative co movement Is growing to a remarkable degree not only in scope but in strength there are now about operative cooperative co associations in the country with a total membership of about farmers they did a business totaling last year an increase of over 1930 thus in spite of present depressed conditions agil culture should be optimistic for the future the day the first operative cooperative co started was a red letter day in the history of farming and the day the last group of unorganized farmers loin join together tor for mutual benefit the farmer will have reached the goal for which the more progressive members of his industry are working the time when a man could stand alone in his business dealings Is past he must join with his fellows in the same endeavor so that all may prosper and find a sound
