SEEKS ADVICE; is ARRESTED
Charles Peterson Makes a Friendly
Visit to the Police Station and
Finds He Is Wanted

When Charles Peterson, 1907 South
Main street, walked into the police sta
ton yesterday afternoon he was the
most surprised man in the city. Peter
son wanted some one to tell him how
he became unconscious in his room
the day before, but when he told his
name he was arrested on the charge of
passing a worthless check on A. G..
Linck.
Peterson claims that he drew the
check thinking that his wife would pay
it. Though he has been married but
two weeks there was domestic trouble
and Peterson says his wife refused to
pay the check. He was released on his
own recognizance

the new city hall site is bounded by
Sonoratown, Dogtown, Chinatown and
hillsides, which shows his monumental
ignorance. I used to have some respect
for the Examiner and read it once in

"This isn't the only time that the Ex-
aminer has got off on the wrong foot
and this isn't the only time that Lowen-

to show him tomorrow night that we
don't approve of him and his actions
at all and will ask Hearst, through res

some man in his place that understands
something of the conditions in Los Al. .

The new Santa Fe shops were ded-
icated last Wednesday night in a
blaze of glory. the occasion being
utilized by Spanish Peaks Lodge No.
32s, Brotherhood Of Locomotive
Firemen, for their fourteenth an
nual ball. Fully two thousand peo-
pie were present. the number includ-
ing employees and their families from
all along the line from Topeka. Kan.
to Albuquerque. n. NJ. Over two
hundred from Topeka alone were in
attendance, and there were large
delegations present from Newton.
Emporia. Dodge City, Pueblo. Ration.
Las Vegas and Albuquerque. Dur
ing the day the streets Of La Junta
presented a very busy appearance,
many Of the Kansans being particu-
larry industrious in cultivating an
acquaintance with local conditions to
which they had been for a long time
a stranger in the sunflower prohibit
tion state. In the afternoon most of
the available livery rigs were in use.

shops presented a very animated APP
pearance. such as they will probably
never experience again. People of
all sorts and conditions abounded
everywhere. and all seemed eager
and willing to enter with zest into
the spirit Of the occasion. Those
who remember the dark pail of
gloom that settled down upon this
community when the "old shops
burned little over a year ago do
not have to make much effort to be-

bolted and riveted. are Of such a
substantial. enduring and perma-
nent character that even the most
persistent knocker will have to ad-
nit that they are here to stay for
ever and day. Some Of our citi-
zens could never be convinced that
that the Santa Fe shops would not

some time. be removed elsewhere.
and this has always proved a detri-
ment TO La Junta. Now that the
shops have been finally and definite

such a permanent character that the
knocker finds his occupation gone,
it is up to him to look for new

Santa Fe in La Junta during the
past year include a machine. boiler
and tank shop. the dimensions of
which are l52 feet by 402 feet. The

Financial Statement Of the First Ma
tionaI Bank of This City.
From Fridays Daily.

FROM fCludS ) DdIly.
The statement of the First National
bank will be found elsewhere in this is
sue. This strong financial institution
presents a very hattering statement of
its condition, and it shows how the bust
ness of the bank has been increased dur
ing the past few years. The bank is
carefully and conservatively managed by
some of the strongest men financially
in Mankato There has been a notable
increase in the loans and discounts, the
deposits in all departments continue to
grow, the surplus and undivided profits
are added to and the balance of the
figures are creditable standard of the
progress that is being made by the
bank. The officers and directors have
reason to feel proud of the stable con-
diton of their institution.

their customers suffer -correspondingly,
owing to the necessary increase in price
of the finished product, but the farmer,
paid nothing for hides that bring mill
ions upon millions to the packers, is the
chief loser and would be the gamer in
fight with the trust
another important fact that should
cause the farmer to revolt from the
chatting of this yoke to revolt from the
the price paid for cattle. In indisput-
able control of the buying prices, the
packers have frightened the screws on
the producer, and until a short time
ago when a slight increase was offer
ed, the price of beef on the hoof was
constantly being forced lower. During
the same period, and it was only a few
years, the price of hides was advanced
80 per cent. [ know this from actual

the leather trust. With this act re-
moved, we would 90 to South American
