Tucumcari's Gambling Or.
dinance Gets First Test
and Holds Good.
ONLY ONE WITNESS

Tucumcari's new gambling ordinance
was put to the test for the ftst time
Wednesday morning when Joe Reed
proprietor Of the Lobby Saloon, was ar.
raigned before Justice Patterson on
the charge Of allowing gambling in
his place Of business.
The prosecuting witness In the ease
was Chas. Lewis who swore that h. had
played poker in the Lobby and had
borrowed money from Reed ON two OF
three occasions with which to open thu
game. The games he said were played
in u back room leading f.om the bar
room and further stated that the pro
prietor was IA tue room several times
during the course of the games.
Lewis was the only witness aud af
ter his testimony had been concluded
the attorneys let the case rest. Judge
Patterson lined the defendant twenty
hve dollars aud the costs, amounting
to forty dollars. Reed was represent
ed by Attorney Lange, who gave notice
VI appeal to the district court aud II
was only few minutes until defendant
gave the required bond.
The validity of the ordinance wa,
not questioned and there was NO techni
calities for defendants council to turn
on. Reed lIolloman represented the
city and Lewis was granted immunity
Tor his testimony aud evidence. Th,
case will come up in the next term Vi
district court.
