HAS ANOTHER PLAN
Capitol Commission Finds Something
Else It Might Do.

The capitol commission has a plan
in view, to have Wabasha street pass
the capitol parallel with the building
line. This would permit of making a
straight path from the street to the
capitol, instead of diagonal one across
the grounds, and would also give oppor-
tunity to construct a much more e1ab-
execution of this plan would necessitate
carrying the commission over to the
next legislative session with request
for more money.

Mob threaten. Brighton Judge.

Denyer.-There was plenty Of excite
meut IN Brighton Monday following
the issuance Of an order TO SheriH
James =. Higgins OF Adams county and
Marshal Edward Denny OF the town OF
Brighton by County Judge A. IL. Gut
hiei to remove all gambling devices
from saloons and other resorts In
Brighton and elsewhere In the county.
Later. believing that the officers
were no. obeying the order OF the
court, Judge Guthiel appointed Martin
Bromley and ID. V. Miller eltsors 10 ex-
ecute the order of the court. Although
the sheriff and marshal had reported
their inability to find more than two or
three gambling devices, the elisors
found enough to load one wagon.
When Judge Guthiel learned this he
decided that the sheriff and marshal
were lax In obeying his orders and ne
threatened them with imprisonment
for contempt, but did not order their
commitment to jail. However, the im-
pression that they had been sent to
iail spread throughout the town. ana
when Judge Guthiel left the court
room after the adjournment OF court
10 20 to Denver he was followed to the
depot BY a small crowd OF friends OF
the sheriff and marshal.
: At the depot the crowd increased
until between seventy-five and one
hundred men and boys had gathered.
some OF those in the crowd were In
toxicated and threats were shouted at
the Judge, but no effort was made to
seixe him or to do him violence.
Judge Guthiel entered the coach ut
the rear end Of the mixed train which
was about to leave the station and
went to Denver.

publican says: Taxpayers OF Chaffee

Ing In Saiida Saturday afternoon to dis
cuss the attempt OF the Otero irriga-
ton district to transfer ninety cubic
feet OF water from Chaffee and Lake
counties to Otero county. about 200,
miles down the river. There was a
good representation OF ditch owners
and business men and the subject was
discussed at length. A resolution was
adopted condemning the action Of the
Otero irrigation district and urging
the county commissioners to fight the
attempt when the case is called at the
January term Of court.

transfer and II was decided at the
meeting that each ditch owner should
file protest. as well as the commits
sioners. It was the sense of the meet
Ing that the cost OF the suit be paid
by the county. IL the court should
grant the request OF the Otero irriga-
tion district 1t would mean the closing
of almost every headgate In Chanee
county and thus make thousands OF
acres OF land valueless.
Tho resolution also condemned the
decision OF Judge Dixon In the Pueblo
District Court In refusing to recognize
representatives from interested parties
of Chaffee county in the recent petition
OF the c. F. & I. Company for trans
fer OF water rights.
