Aroused over the possibility of
the entire abolition of saloons

Gila country as the result of the
adoption of the Hamilton Owens
bill now before congress, protests
representing the Globe city coun-
ell, the county board of super
visors and officers of the Globe
.chamber of commerce have been
wired to Governor Richard E.
Sloan, urging him to use his in
fluence to secure the defeat of the
bill.
The Hamilton-OWens bill pro-
vides that no liquor shall be sold
within a distance of twenty five
miles of any Indian reservation.
The result of the adoption OF
this bill in its present form would
be to close every saloon IN Gila
county, with the exception OF
those located at Tayson. That
it would be detrimental to the
interests of Gila county is the
opinion of a majority of the bus
mess men of Globe, and as a re-
