STATE HARD PUT 1O
| PROVE SECOND CASE
METHOD OF sHERlFF's. SEIZURE
PROVES STUMBLING BLOCK
IN COURT.
COUNTY ATTORNEY FINDS
1T HARD TO PROVE CASE
Lack Of Personal knowledge on Part
of Sheriff and Deputy Makes it APP
pear as Tho State Might Not Be Able
to Prove That Liquor Seized Was
Liquor in Court.

Judging from the states evidence
that had been introduced in Justice
Peek's court up to noon today, in the
case of the liquor seized from the
/ Schulz & WetZstein saloon, % North
Center street, il looks as tho the state
would have difficulty in proving its
contentious. The manner and method
in which the seizure was made by the
sheriff's officers. and the lack of per-
sonal knowledge on the part of Sheriff
A. A. Nicholson and his deputy c. B.
I Mason, proved the chief stumbling
block which stood in the path of the
county attorney in the early hours of
the trial. The motion for a change of
venue was overruled.
! 1t is possible that these difficulties
and handicaps will be overcome later
4 in the case. but from the evidence in
troduced this morning it would ap-
pear that the state had made slight
progress.
Identity of Liquor Questioned.
Sheriff Nicholson ordered his deputy
c. B. Mason, TO make the seizure

saloon and demanding the keys. which
turned the keys over TO his superior
later made by Sheriff Nicholson. The
return on the invoice was made by mis-
other deputy. c. c. Bratt.
On the witness stand Sheriff Mich
olson was unable to say positively,
from personal knowledge, that the lia-
uor involved in the case. the liquor
upon which returns were made by
Deputy Brat, and the liquor seized by
Deputy Mason, were one of the same
stock. His best information was what
had been told him by his deputy.
Mason Makes Seizure.
Deputy Mason testified on the wit
ness stand that in proceeding 10 serve
the search warrant he went 10 the sa-
loon and demanded the keys, which
were turned over to him. bur That ne
took no no5ice of the stock in the
building. any further than he saw
there was lleg beer in the place. He did
not remain in charge. bat locked up
the saloon and turned the key over TO
Sheriff Nicholson. He said he had made
similar seizure once before
1 Later the stock was removed from
the building and tnvoiced by Sheriff
Nicholson. He was positive that the
liquor he had in his possession was the
same as that covered BY the invoice
but he did not know. excepting by what
his deputies had told him. that it vas
the Schulz & Wetzstein stock. With
I the finishing OF his testimony the
morning session ended.

Colorado's 5 Corn Crop.

In passing through Colorado this
year the observer is struck with the
large area of corn being grown. Here
tofore Colorado has had rather an un-
enviable reputation as corn growing
state as the opinion has been more or
less general that the nights are too CO
here for this crop to mature. This year
however, large acreages were planted
and it is doing finely. The crop is
now being cut and it promises to be
one cf the most profitable the ranch
men will raise. The corn is said to be
of'excellent quality and if it can all be
gathered before frost hurts it, the fod-
der will make most excellent winter
rough feed. Colorado will in the future
raise much more of this crop than in
the past and will probably in few
years produce enough of it to supply
her own wants for feeding purposes,
using it with the other grains and feeds
raised within her borders.

Horse dealers report a remarkably
good demand for registered breeds at

for the future horse population of the

condition is rapidly changing and at the

very short time until Colorado and the
