SILVER TIP BEss" ARRESTED

Chief of Police O'Neil this morn
ing arrested "Silver Tip Bess,
woman who is again becoming quite
notorious from her tendencies to get
drunk and create disturbances at in
tervals which are not far between
and which usually last several days
at a time.
She was notified several times late
ly to leave town, but refused to do
this, and instead started out on her
usual spree. She rides from town
to town in box cars and on the
bumpers like an ordinary hobo, and
succeeds in making her presence
known in a new town shortly after
her arrival; consequently she is kept
continually on the move and is Just
as much of an expert in beating her
way from one place to another as

AFTER THE
CRIMINALS

Today ]. ID. Drury was given a
deputy sheriff's commission and yes
terday a Mr.. Patterson was given a
commission in order that they may
be empowered to make arrests of the
vandals or criminals who for some
days have been running melon patch
es. destroying fences and breaking
up water pipe on ranches in the
northeastern part of the city and just
outside of the city limits in that sec
tion. The acts of these criminals are
proving most damaging to the ranch
men and Sheriff Schrader decided to
give two of the ranchmen commits
sions SO that arrests could be made
if some of the guilty ones are caught.
1t is reported that damage
amounting to several hundred dol
lars has already been done by the
criminals. Two or three young men
are suspected and arrests may soon
follow. The ranchmen are aroused
and determined to put stop to the
dirty work.

and business associate of the deceas-

afternoon as Mr.. Porter desired to go
DeBeuue where his home is and
where his family is at this time.

up the hospital to ask Mr.. Porter If
he had not better postpone his trip
on account of the weather. MIR.
Davis was told that his friend was
dead.
In June of 1906 Mr.. Porter and
family came to Grand Junction. AT
that time the deceased was appar-
emily in fine health. All his life he
had been strong and healthy and had
endured much hard work. Messrs.
Porter and Davis bought large
ranch near DeBeque and Mr.. Porter
took charge of the property.

Porter became ill and it was found
that he was suffering with tubercu-
losis. On the advice of physicians he

ANTI-RACE TRACK BILL
BEFORE SENATE DISTRICT COM
M1TTEE TOMORROW.

The most important measure that will
come before the Senate District commit
tee al it's regular meeting tomorrow morn
ing is the anti-race track gambling bill.
The Carter subcommittee was instructed
and it is understood that a majority of
the committee favors immediate favorable
action and report to the Senate.
The bill may be passed at once by the
Senate instead of going on the calendar
AMI waiting its turn. 1t will then have
to go to conference. as the Senate will
doubtless amend 1t as to the widening OF
Benning road.
Senator's Carter and Burkett constitut-
ing a majority of the subcommittee. met
late yesterday afternoon and decided upon
two minor amendments neither affecting
in any way the Sims anti-gamblng
amendment put on in the House. II is
understood that no legal objection to the
mes sure has been discovered Some such
obstacle was feared by Senator Carter.
but has disappea red upon investigation.
The legal obstacle which Senator Carter
feared would prove detriment to the
pa assage of the bill has been found not to
exist. The railroad company owns. a
strip of ground thirty feet wide in the
line of the proposed widening. and ii
was feared that as this strip is already
used for quasi-public purpose by the
railway company. the District was de-
barred from condemning 1t for road
widening purposes.
Ii developed upon investigation. how
ever that there was clause in the act
authorizing the company to extend its
tracks out to the Renning road which
requires the corporation to dedicate the
strip in question to the District for public
purposes when the road shall he widenad
by act OF Congress.

WANT CHANCE TO VOTE
FRIENDS OF FREE WOOD PULP
CLAIM A MAJORITY.

Ii looks just now as if the prediction
of John Sharp Williams minority leader
In the House. that a bill for free wood
pulp and free print paper would be passed
in the present session of Congress will
come true. A canvass of the House has
demonstrated that every democrat and
elghty-odd republicans, comprising a ma
jority of the House. are in favor of a
measure of this sort. and only wait a
chance to vote in order to pass such a
bill
Representative Serene Payne of New
York and Representative John DaIzell of
Pennsylvania are understood to be unal-
terably opposed to bringing in such a bill
One of the reasons they mention for their
attitude is that If bill to take the duty
off wood pulp and print paper were in
troduced it would open up tine whole
tariff question.
Friends of the measure say that this
reason given is silly, in view of the fact
that the majority could easily bring In
one of the special rules that are being
used so lavishly these days and have
the measure considered by the House
without being subject to amendment
An effort is now being made by friends
of the proposition to secure leader for
the fight from among the eight y-odd re
publicans. If this effort fails. il is prob
able that John Sharp Williams will take
command in person. At any rate, friends
of the free wood pulp and free print
paper movement are much encouraged by
reason of the present situation.
