State of Colorado. County of Mesa, IS.
In the District Court.
LII the Matter of the Petition for the
Calling OF a Grand Jury.
BY the Court.
In the matter of grand jury, the
court has been petitioned to call a
grand jury. There has been a grand
jury in this county within year
grand jury is exceedingly expensive.
The people of the county are already
heavily burdened with debt and tax
es. So far as the court is able to
learn, the matters as to which it is
alleged grand jury should investi-
gate are largely matters as to which
there is already much general infor-
Ination and concerning which there
should be no great difficulty without
the aid of grand jury in ascertain
ing the facts The charges as to vio-
lations of the law largely relate, as
it is understood, to alleged Illegal
charges of county Officers, which are
matters of record and to which any
citizen has free access and right of
inspection by express statutory pro-
vision.
For these reasons, no grand jury
will be called at this time.
Done in open court this 10th day
of March, 1913.

However, the newer political phases
o. the situation which surround the

more than 3 or 32 votes.
BY Speaker Skinner's own ruling,
a measure must have 46 votes before
it can be resuscitated. There is some
possibility of appealing from the de-

not affect the status of the bill.
