as a drink, and of renting property for
such purposes, when owned by us indi-

Should the Republicans in the house
unseat the Democrats from Arapahoe

they could unseat every Republican
senator and make the senate unani-

in q deadlock and prevent the election
OF any senator.

Accompanying the return Of the in

setting forth the grounds upon which
the jurors based their action, The
shortage they declare, they found due
primarily and principally to the recent
great strike in the anthracite coal
fields"
Bitumnous coal could not be mined
and stored In sufficient quantities to
supply the deficiency caused by the re-
stricted output from the anthracite
mines, first because the capacity of
the mines could not be increased so
materially on short notice, and, sec
