LET THE PEOPLE VOTE ON 1T.

The county commissioners are in
session today. Their chief business
has been to consider the ordinary
claims against the county and other
routine business.
Outside of the regular business of
the commissioners they took up the
matter of putting in new Jail for
the county. They are working on the
matter and are thinking seriously of
submitting the matter to a vote of
the people in November. The question
will be on the voting of bonds not to
exceed $4,000.
W. w. Yale, a representative of
the Pauly Jail Building company, is
in the city and has been exhibiting
his steel cages to the commissioners
The plan suggested is to put in 20
cages and in such a manner that more
may be put in at any time
The suggestion of the commission-
ers to put the matter up to the peo-
pie is god one. Let the people de-
eide this important matter and thus
relieve the commissioners Of the re-
sponsibility.

HENRY ARNOLD COMING

1t is reported around town that
Henry j, Arnold, Denvers mayor,
will arrive in the city to spend the
Fourth of July holiday season and
visit his Durango friends, hundreds
of whom will be pleased to see him
and exchange greetings.
In this connection Mayor Aronld's
star seems to be in the ascendancy
all around. In the first place Mr..
Arnold is practically the original
Woodrow Wilson man, having started
the Wilson club in Denver and elect
ed president early in the campaign.
He wrote to Durango friends and ask
ed them to organize a Wilson club,
saying they would have to come to
Wilson later on if not in the begin
ming. Under these conditions and as
mayor of Denver Mr.. Arnold will
come as near being on the inside as
any one in the state should Wilson be
elected.
Henry is sure to be congratulated
for the friends he has made and the
enemies that have been barking at
him.

Place and time-Las Vegas, N. M,
Thursday at 200 p. m.
Title at stake-World's heavy
weight championship.
Length of Forty-five rounds
or more.
Marquis of Queensbury.
Referee-Ed w. Smith Of Chicago.
Special to The Herald.
LAS VEGAS, July 3.-Visitors
from many parts of the country have
been coming throughout the day to
see the battle for the worlds heavy
weight championship between Jack
johnson and jim Flynn and interest
extends to all classes. From the
training quarters of the rivals the an
nouncement has been made that both
men are in perfect physical condition
and ready for the struggle tomorrow
afternoon.
The promoters of the mill expect a
large attendance. They disposed of
many tickets in advance and count
upon the late arrivals from a distance
and the eleventh hour rush from Las
Vegas and vicinity to swell the crowd
at the ringside to proportions that
will leave them something after all
expenses are paid and the fighters
given their share Among the old
timers, however, it is the belief that
the crowd will fall far from short of
that at the Jeffries-Johnson battle
at Reno two years ago, both numeri-
cally and financially.
AS betting proposition the fight
does not promise much. To date very
few dollars have been placed on the
result. There are many persons who
think well of Flynn's prowess as a
fighter and vastly larger number
who wish him all the good luck and
success possible when he faces the
champion in the squared circle, but
there are comparatively few who
think well enough of his chances to
back him with cold cash. At the same
time there are some who are willing
to bet on the Pueblo man at the liber-
al odds offered. They remember the
odds offered on Jeffries two years
ago and also the result of the fight
when the sports who had had the nerve
to back Johnson pulled down some
big money. They figure out that il
the big smoke champion has gone
back during his two years absence
from the ring, the contest tomorrow
may be repitition of the affair al
Reno.
But with all things considered, Jacl
Johnson looks the winner, and as hi
himself says, he ought to score clear
knockout long before the limit of thu
flight is reached.
