Another proof has been added to the
already long list that this city is the
dumping ground for other cities, includ.
ing Leadville and Grand Junction. Deny
the charge as some will, the most con.
vincing proof was uncovered last Tues
day night, when government officers
placed under ARE Nellie Ward, and
landed her in the county Jail for safe
keeping un.il they could convey her to
Grand Junction.
Deputy United States Marshal Clark
of Denver and DR.. A. f. Swan, deputy
collector of United States internal rev.
enue, of Leadville, arrived in this city
Tuesday. They We're in search of Mel.
lie Ward, who, until "A week ago, claim
ed LeadviIle as her home. According
to the story of the officers, Nellie was
a member of the Lcadville underworld,
and early lasi summer started to sell
booze in the Cloud City. She ignored
the United States government, and fail.
ed to take out the necessary license for
dispensing the juice that is called whis-
key. After running her joint for at
least month she took out a license
and, il is said, laughed at how she had
run her business without paying Uncle
Sam his fees. But her laugh has been
cut short, and her arrest in this city last
Tuesday night followed. Nellie, as she
is called, arrived in this city about
week ago. She was accompanied by an
other girl but the second one left town
it is claimed. Mr.. Clark and Collector
Swan learned that she was in this city,
and came here. They visited the vari
Gus resorts and had the inmates lined up
and finally found the one they were in
search of. She was taken to the county
jail and left in the care of Sheriff vii
moth until Midland No. 8 came along
Wednesday morning, when she was
placed aboard and taken to Grand June.
tion, where a hearing was scheduled
before the United tSates commissioner
in the peach city. In case the proof is
sufficient and Nellie refuses TO pay her
bills, including all expenses of the two
government officers, she will be taken
to Denver and haled before the federal
grand jury.
1t may be these people can get the
better of Glenwood, but when it comes
to monkeying with our Uncle Samuel,
they will get caught sooner or later.
The government is lenient with tbs peo.
pie, but it does not pay to go too far.
OF course there are some who will
still contend that Glenwood is not tho
dumping ground for Leadville, Aspen
and Grand Junction, but these people
are either not aware of real conditions
or are willing that such should be the
case. A few weeks ago a business man
of Grand Junction was in this city. He
told friends here that the tenderloin il
closed in the peach city and that he
suspected that the inmates would seek

That the gymnasium has been of
school cannot be denied by the most
ardent enemy that the gym ever had in
this city. During the past winter
months the boys have engaged in basket
ball, hand ball and various other sports
that develop the muscles and for this
reason they will soon open the baseball
season with better material and which
at the beginning will show the usual
mid-season form.
Our boys were the 1908 western slope
champions of the high school teams,
and that they will carry off the palm
this year is certain, and in addition we
doubt very much if there is high
school baseball team on the eastern
slope that can take their measure, not
withstanding the fact that certain of
the eastern slope schools have far more
students to pick from.

P. H. OIDENBERG.
Tho above message was received this
week from Paul Gutenberg, who with
hn family is sojourning in California.
Mr.. Oldenberg has already gone on rec
ori as being in favor of higher sa
Ion license, and for a cleaning up of the
city. He recensly caused vote to bs
taken on the question of raising the
license but was overpowered and his
motion was lost. That he will entertain
a motion for higher license is assured
and that he will do all in his power
to rid the city of some of the undesir
able things is positive. Paul goes be-
fore the people on the platform adopted
by the republicansand if elected will
do all he can to carry out every pro-

PICK ExploDEs GIANT CAP NOTICE TO THE VOTERS

We, the undersigned, have been told
that certain parties are giving out the
word that in case we are elected Off
cials of the city of Glcnwood Springs, We
will either make the saloon license so
high that it will be impossible for the
saloon men to pay it, or that we will
refuse to grant anyone license, and
thus make the city dry.
We wish it understood that such
statements are without foundation, and
that it is our intention to be guided
wholly and solely by the platform upon
which We are making the race. 1t is
not our intention to work hordship on
anyone, but we feel that the saloon
men of this city should pay higher fee
for the privilege they enjoy and unless
the people of Glenwood At some later
date vote to remove the saloons, we
shall ts<e no step in that direction.

which it was intended to allow all who
desired to do so to question Mr.. Pinchot
concerning the workings of the depart
mcnt and to give an opportunity for
criticisms and suggestions, but on ac.
count of delayed Midland No. 3, Mr..
Pinchot did not reach the Junction until
late in the afternoon, thus making it
impractical to carry out the original
program.
AT the evening meeting this featur,
was given considerable attention, and
Mr.. Pinchot was bombarded with many
questions, all of which he answered 10
| the apparent satisfaction of the parties
interested. 1t was particularly notice,
able that these questions and sugges-
tions were entirely free from the venom
which characterized most of the re-
marks in such meetings of few years
ago. All who participated seemed per.
fectly good natured, and the chief for.
ester must surely have gone away with
splendid opinion of the western slope
stockmen.
Mr.. Pinchot was accompanied by Mr..
A. F. Potter, chief of the grazing de,
partmcnt and Smith Riley, district for.
ester for Colorado. After he had been
introduced in an eloquent speech by for
mer Attorney General Miller. he said in
