the Republicans elected, even to
Judge Garrigues for the Supreme
Court, who, on the unoffi ial ount
has more than three thousand
plurality. Chairman Bradley of the
Democratic state central commit
tee has announced that contests
will probably be started against
the returns from FL Paso,, Huer-
fano, Rio Grande, and toStilla
counties. Contests for state posi-

eliminate the vote of any county.
Should such contests prevail from
all these counties, the Republican
vote would be reduced six thou

vote and all Republicans elected
would suffer defeat The main
fight is directed against Ben Grit

GOVERNMENT REPORT
THE SAN LUIS VALLEY

The United States Geological
Survey has just published a re-
port on the geology and water re-
sources of the San Luis valley, by
c. E. Siebenthal, geologist.
The demand for water is urgent
so that the quantity and quality
of the available water-the prin-
cipal subject discussed in the re-
port-are matters of pressing i'm
portance to the inhabitants of
the valley.
The report, which is published
as Water-Supply Paper 2i0, dis
cusses in detail the underground
water as it is exhibited in arte
sian wells and springs. The ar
tesian wells number between
5000 and 1000 and range in
depth from 100 feet to more than
LOCO feet. Over a large part of
the west side of the valley it is
possible to obtain a good flow of
pure cold water at a depth of less
than 200 feet and at "a cost of "a
bout $50.
Mr.. Siebenthal s sketch of the
geologic history of the valley,
though brief, Is interesting. The
center of the valley was once oc-
cupied by large lake from whose
waters were deposited a Loose ,bo-
dy of sands and clays that now
make up one of the geologic for
nations from which an artesian
flow is derived. The existence of
this lake was inferred nearly nine
ty years ago by Jacob Fowler, who
explored the valley in 1922. In
his journal Mr.. Fowler writes:
Monday 18th Feby. 1922.
We Sot out Early up the Riv
er and at about II miles Came to
the upper Eand of the High Rocks.
The River does not move in a
very gentle manner as 1t appears

The report contains an excel
lent map Of the valley and is also
illustrated by numerous diagrams
and half-tone views. 1t may be
obtainetd without charge by apply

at Washington.

For Investing

Salt Lakers returning from the va
rious mining camps and business CEN
ters of the State of Nevada agree
that there never has been a time in
the resurrection period of the past
ew years when the opportunity for
making money was more favorable
than right now. Opportunity they
say, knocks continually at your door,
and there is every argument for those
who are able so to do to round up
some of the bargains now reposing
on the counters of the state.
Mining properties especially are
held very reasonably by owners, and
many propositions once held at ex-
orbitant prices are to be had for al
most no more than the obligation to
get down to work and develop the
ground
1t is realized, however, that the
cause of this condition operates as
nard against the average man taking
advantage of these bargains, and that
is the difficulty of getting ready mon
ey. But the fact remains that now is
the opportune hour to investigate
Nevada mining propositions especial
ly in view of the renewed interest in
gold mining, and now and then one
hears OF Salt Laker slipping out in
to the Sagebrush state to take look
for himself-Salt Lake Tribune.

Robert Chanler Is Victim Ol
WileS of French Woman

The smooth way in which Nine

Robers Winthrope Chanler of New
York, from several millions, reads
like chapter of fiction
The woman in the case is the
queen of the Partisan demi monde
and edits the fashion page OF
Hearst's stable of newspapers.
Chanler became infatuated with hel
and offered her his hand in marriage
He knew her past as the lady in the
case had unfolded it to him. A com.
plete record of it would not &C
through the mails.
He was still determined to make
her his wife She is billed as the
most beautiful woman in the world
and possibly is.
Just before the ceremony she sug-
gested that as she was business
woman and he was careless in such
matters, it might be we'll for him to
make over all his fortune to her, rated
at several millions.
So the nfatua- d lobster ~ssiGnc.i

and the priest blessed the union.
She had another lover, several in
fact, and presently told Chanler she
was tired of him and dismissed him.
She was not wholly oblivious OF the
past friendship however, and in the
kindness Of her heart agreed to settle
twenty dollars a month on him to
live on, while he made some more
painting pictures.
People generally mention him as
the biggest sucker OF the century,
But possibly people should be more

ELY, Sept 12.-One man was fa-
tally injured and two seriously hurt
in a pitched battle with gang of four

persons, to hold up their hands. The
order was complied with. the men
lining up against the walls and the
robbers proceeded to throw the mon

bers were finally repulsed, but not
before several of the persons in the
place were wounded
George Miller was wounded in the
left lung, probably fatally. Clarence
McFadden was wounded in the leg by
spent bullet and Tilford had his
head cut open from the gun of one of
the desperadoes.
After being driven out of the place
and firing several shots through the
windows, the robbers fled into the
hills, taking about $1,000 with them.
Indians nave been rcquisitioned to
train the outlaws and fifty special of

back are in pursuit
Tex Hall, owner of the Southern
