Public Building.

Congressman Herschel NJ. Hogg re-
marked in this city recently that he
stood ready to do all in his power to
secure for this city public building.
From the conversation which this
gentleman had with Mr.. Hogg he said
he believed it was Mr.. Hogg's i'm
preston that this city was the natural
point for a government building.
The good offices of Mr.. Hogg would
count for much in securing public
building for this city. Grand juno
tion is generally considered through
out this state as the capital city OF
the western slope and there is every
reason why government building
should be located here.
1t is to be hoped that Mr.. Hogg.
either from his own volition or as a
result of large petition of the citi-
zens of Mesa county and the Westren
slope generally, will move forward
along the line indicated and secure for
this city a federal building. in size
commensurate with the grow ing needs
of this entire section.

FLoATER FOUND.

A telephone message was received
this morning from Palisade stating
that the body of fioater had been
taken out of the river and asking
what should be done with it. The
message was received by DR.. Knude
Hanson. coroner, and he at once stat
ed that he would viist Palisade and
determine what TO do with the body.
Undertaken Bannister was notified
and he left ON delayed No. for Pali-
sade to care for the body, DR.. Hanson
driving there.
A later phone message was to the
effect that the body was that of the
Italian section hand who was drown
ed in the Grand river near Tunnel sta
tion about "A week ago, and has been
in the river ever since. Mention OF
the drowning was made at the time.
Two companions were trying to
cross the Grand river, it being much
swollen at the time, when the boat
upset, and one of the men lost his life.
The body will be brought to this
city by Undertaken Bannister. and

THE DAY Is SET.

The time has been chosen. the date
fixed. all the committees have been
appointed, the papers throughout the
state have been notified, and now no
thing remains but for the people to
make their arrangements to go to
Glenwood Springs on June 27th. and
enjoy the feast and festivities of that
city's annual celebration of Straw
berry Day. strawberry Day - The
very name brings up pleasant recollec-
tions, and every one who has ever Wis.,
tied that city on the date of its annu
al celebration, will make a strong pull
to be there again this year. Grand
Junction has always sent a large de-
legation to Glenwood to help her eel
citrate, and there is little doubt but
that this year will even outclass the
former ones so far as numbers are
concerned. The Sentinel is with the
little city, and hopes its festival of
strawberries may be bigger and better
than ever.

THEIR WORKS THEIR PROOF
Communicated.

Elder Leonard concluded his reply
to DIR. Wishard Tuesday evening. All
who attended the services were we'll
paid and satisfied with the explana-
tions made by the Elder. He show
ed conclusively and i'll a most plain
yet forceful manner that Dr.. Wishard
had misrepre sented the Mormon peo-
pie and their doctrine.
We feel that everyAmreican citizen
has right to his own views on such
matters. and any minister or religious
denomination makes a mistake when
they attack and abuse those who do
not believe as they do. The great
work accomplished by the Mormon
people in the last seventy years proves
that they have, at least, been sincere
in the promotion of their faith.
We would say, let them alone. If
their religion is founded on false
foundation it will surely come to
naught, and if it be true, let us not
be found fighting against God.
We might take as guide their
eleventh article of faith. 'We claim
the privilege of worshiping Almighty
God, according to the dictates of our
conscience, and allow all men the
same privilege, let them worship how,
where. or what they may

Trouble Brewing.

Road Overseer Frank Knox, at
Fruita is waging a war against farm
ers who permit the overflow from
their bitches to run on the road. Yes
terday he had twelve farmers arrested
and their trials took place at Fruita
this afternoon, before Judge Nugent.
Possibly there is some excuse for
some of the farmers, but others are
very negligent about the water and
seem to think that the travelling pub
lie has no rights in the matter.
The arrests doubtless will make
some of those who have been negli.
gent in the matter to have more care
of their premises and the water from

AFTER THE POLICY MEN
The Grand Jury Ind'cts T~wenty-six Of
the Policy Writers-There Are
Twelve Hundred shops In the Biz
City-Profits of the Trade.

Chicago special.)-An initial move
in a determined crusade against policy
playing in Chicago, the Citizens asso-
citation yesterday secured the indict-
ment by the grand jury of 26 policy
writer's.
After the indictments were voted the
association issued q statement, in
which 1t told of its determination to
rout out this kindergarten of the
gambling mania"
Both the chief of police and the
mayor, says the associations bulle-
tin, have been repeatedly quoted as
declaring that if a way can be shown
to prosecute policy cases the police
would do their utmost to stamp out
the evil. With a view of showing that
this class of criminals is not superior
to the law, and that they can be cor
victed in the courts when attacked in
good faith, we have obtained the evil
dence against them with care and
thoroughness."
Secretary Shelby NJ. Singleton Of the
association said hat the evidence Sc
cured is complete and covered the
points in which the previous p~rosecu-
tons had been weak. The defendants
are in charge Of shops" in almost ev-
cry part of the city and are about
equally divided in the matter of color.
The association had 40 cases pre-
pared, but in ii of these the detectives
were able only to secure either the
first or the last name of the writer,
and the grand jury declined to indict,
except where the identity Of the de
PENDANT was clearly shown.
In each case detectives of the associ-
alton bought tickets" in the morn
ing, and in the afternoon, after the
drawings had been made, went to the
places and coniscated the Sheets
thus showing the several features OF
the lottery with which the defendants
are charged with being connected.
The names of the defendants were
suppressed until after the indictments
have been drawn and the capiases is
sued. for fear that some of the persons
might leave to escape arrest.
The MAGNITUDE of the policy evil Is
shown by the following figures secured
and compiled by the association:
No. of policy shops in city. 1,20t
Daily receipts ............ $4,000
Daily net profits ........... 5000
Annual receipts ........... 5,5S0,00(
Annual net profits .......... 10000
