TALK OF A MUNICIPAL ICE PLANT

Ice dealers, wholesalers and retail
srs, no doubt understand that they
are responsible for the present talk
Of municipal Ice plant. Holyoke does
not want 70 go into the ice busintss.
Of that we are convinced. unless ice
prices are put UP and kept up 80 high
as 10 keep this necessity from the
homes Of the less wealthy. The New
England ice crop this year was much
smaller than normal, but the local
crop from nearby places probably to-
tailed as much, or nearly as much, as
last year. Yet prices are boosted.
This Is what makes Holyoke talk Of
municipal ice.-Holyoke Transcript.
Holyoke is noe alone in talk OF this
kind. The ice proposition is being
made q hot proposition by those who
know they can squeeze the people and
proceed to DO It, Ice dealers laugh at
ouch talk as this and consider it to be
evidence Of impotence because ice
plants have not yet been made gem
orally profitable north Of Washington.
The printers used to laugh at the idea
OF profitable typesetting machines but
they laugh no longer. Necessity is the
mother Of invention. When the people
feel that they are being bled they are
not contented. Unreasonableness has
spoiled many a we'll established bust
ness.

DENVER WIRE TAPPERS
MAKE A BIG HAUL
(By Associated Press. }

DENVER, Nov, 11.-Probably be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000 was Sc
cured in this city and suburbs and
in Salt Lake yesterday as the result
of what is believed to have been a
cleverly executed job of wire-tap-
pers near the Latonia race track
and in which the odds on Howard
Pearson, the winner of, the sixth
race at that track, were boosted
from to 1 to 20 and even as high
as 40 to 1.
Handbook makers here and at the
suburbs of Englewood and Littleton
reluctantly admit that they lost
heavily on the race, and many OF
the local bookmakers today are re-
fusing to pay bets on the race.
According to one local bookmak-
er, the odds were apparently al
tered before post time and the
"boost" from Z to l up to 20 to l.
does not seem to have caused sus-
pieion. If the wire was tapped the
odds were held back and the false
odds sent. Then the plunge was
made and as the tip on the horse
apparently was genuine, nearly every
bookmaker around Denver lost. II
is also stated that the operations ex-
tended to Chicago.
