Decker came here last Thursday

for the warden. II was discovered
that there was not suit of clothes
in the prison large enough to fit the
prisoner and that the cell doors were
too small to admit him. Decker tips
the scales at 500 pounds. and he is
by far the heaviest prisoner ever re-

YOU At
MEETING
TOMORROW NIGHT STEPS WILL
BE TAKEN TO ORGANIZE A
STRONG ATHLETIC ASSOCIA-
TION BY EAST ELY PEOPLE.

To reorganize East Ely Reading
Rooms association and make it over
into an Athletic association which
shall have as strong membership
and in little while as complete
equipment as there is in the entire
state is the object of meeting which
has been called for tomorrow even
ing at o'clock in the reading rooms
in the Gunn-Thompson building.
The movement is the result of de-
sire on the part of members of the
association and of others in East Ely
who are interested in athletics to
widen the scope of the present orga-
nization While the reading room
feature will be retained by the new
organization to be made on Wednes-
day evening. the principal future
features will be along the line of
athletics.
A hand ball court and pool tables
in the new quarters which will be
chosen. and a tennis court on con-
venient grounds. are to be had at
once. and in time fine gymnasium
in the quarters will be provided. Also
there will at once be baths put In
the new quarters of the association,
free for the use OF members. feat
ure that will unquestionably be high
ly appreciated. Aside from the above
athletic and gaming features, the
new organization will promote box
ing contests and wrestling matches
for the entertainment of its mem
bers. A strong baseball organization
will probably also be an outgrowth
a little later along in the season.
Those who have charge of the
movement have in the last several
days interviewed a large number of
the members of the present organiza-
tion as we'll as number who do not
belong TO it and have found a great
deal of favor for the plan or reor-
ganization. What is now wanted is a
large attendance of all who have
headquarters in East Ely at the
meeting tomorrow night. that mat
ters may be gone into with good
understanding and enthusiasm. Be
on hand and take part All can ben
eft from the movement and all are
wanted present.

Governor ShafrOth Puts
the Screws to OppOsi-
ton Faction in the
Present Legislature
SAYS PARTY PLEDGES MUST BE
REDEEMED-OPP DE-
CIAIsES THEY WON'T BIZ THE
GoATs--sPECIAL THREATENED

DENVER. Colo, March 22.-Gov-
ernor John F. Shafroth today sent a
message to the legislature declaring
that unless the Democratic majority
redeems party pledges made during
the campaign he will be compelled to
call a special session for that pur-
pose.
The particular pledges referred TO,
although none are specified in the
message include a direct primary
law. laws providing for railroad
commission. a bank guarantee and
good roads laws.
Thirteen executive days remain of
the present session The governor
scores the members of his party f r
failure % lire up to their pledges ard
promises heratoiore and expresses
the opinion that members who do not
see their way clear to vote for the
bills intended to carry out the party
pledges should resign at once from
the legislature and leave the way
open for the appointment of Demo-
Gratis who will be true to their party.
The message of the governor has
created a great deal OF favorable
comment. except among those mem
bers of the legislature who are di-
rectly attacked. These are bitter in
their denuneiation of the action of
the governor, asserting that il is his
endeavor to force them into the po-
sition of holding the bag for the
benefit of his favorites and support
ers.
Among the latter there is high sat
isfaction with the action of the gov
ernor and declaration that his mes
sage will be given practical support
by firm opposition to all measures
the element which he attacks may
present before the legislature. 1t is
the hope that by such tactics either
acquieseenee to support of the party
measures or designations may be
forced. 1t was said tonight that the
governor has fully determined that
il the time limit of the session ex-
pired without action of the character
he desires, he will call the threatened
special session.
