Grand junction w. c. T. U. Claims
Dry Towns Impossible Under
the Local Laws

Grand Junction, Sept. 9.--Pro-
testing that Uncle Sam is respon-
sible for bootlegigng and the evils of
intemperance, not only in Grand
junction, hut in every dry city in
the United States, the Women's
Christian Temperance union in this
city has started movement to Sc
cure the enactment of law prohib-
iting the issuance of federal liquor
licenses in prohibition territory.
The movement is to enlist every
W. C. I. L. chapter in the country
and direct influence will be brought
to bear upon congress at the next
session to prevent further wink
ing at the statutes of dry" cities.
Although Grand Junction has the
strictest anti-liquor statutes in the
state under its new charter, and the
sale of intoxicating drinks OF any
kind is absolutely prohibited, the
W. C. T. U. in the memorial to con-
gress declares that it has the names
of forty-four persons holding federal
liquor licenses in this city, all of
whom are thus given authority by
the United States government to
violate the laws of the state and
city.
The women contend that it is i'm
possible to enforce a prohibitory law
so long as the government sanctions
bootlegging.

badly. 1t is said that the Union
Pacific promised, year ago, to re-
place the old shack that now bears
the name, by July l of this year. 1t
has not been done.

wholly forget their promise the
mayor has written spicy letter to
X. s. Ruble, assistant general pass
enger agent OF the road at Denver.

the oversight.
The present depot was built forty

and no enlargements. 1t Is said
that when dozen people want to
take the same train out of there six
have to stand on the platform while
the other six go inside to purchase
tickets.

CLASSY SHOW
AT PROCTOR'S
"The Milk Local" is Head
liner This Week.

A first-class show Is to be seen at
Proctor's Theatre for the remainder
of this week. The headline act en-
titled THE Milk Local." with Harry
r. Hayward and Company, is with
out doubt one of the brightest
sketches seer at this house for some
time. The rapid fire talk and quick
repartee kept the audience in a laugh
from the start.
The finish of the act with its
mechanical and electrical effects is
decidedly original and novel. The
generous applause that followed
Ecaused the curtain to be raised again
and again. MI. Hayward deserves a
word of praise for the remarkable
dexterity he shows in playing every
part from the Conductor to tbs Wait
er in a Railroad Depot.
John Stone does a very clever
equilibristic act, also doing some
very difficult jumping feats which
could not help but astonish as well
as please.
Beatrice Ingram and Company in
Through the Skylight," is a very
bright little comedy and well acted.
The story deals of a notorious crook
caller "The Countess played by
Miss Ingram, who ushers into the
room of couple OF college students,
pretending her husband is after her
and that he Is insane. In reality it
is the detective who is pursuing her,
but the students gag and bind him,
while she escapes with money and
jewelry. There Is a lot Of good
comedy In the act.
Ray Meyers, a dainty little vocal
list, sang some of the latest songs,
and did a few pretty, graceful steps.
Vassar & Aiken made a big hit
with their comedy talk, and new
songs. Their p~arodies brought them
repeated encores, the audience being
loath to let them go.
