THE GAMBLING ORDINANCE.

The gambling ordinance is to be
amended. The present ordinances
are very strong on this subject and
would seem to reach almost any case
that would come under the state law
but possibly there will be consider
able strength added by the proposed
amendment which provides a penal
ty for keeping, gaming houses, for
acting as doorkeeper or watch for
such house, and for gambling or
lettering in gaming house. The
present ordinance makes It an Of
Tense to run gaming tables, or to per-
nit them to be run on any premises,
and makes 1t an offense to gamble or
permit gambling in any hotel or pub
lfcsplace. and provides forethe con-
fiscation of gambling paraphernalia,
aandalikegthe state law makes 1T an
offensc to; gamble even in private
place If over twenty dollars is won
or lost at the game. If the enforce
ment of law as amended proves to
be as strong as its provisions there
seems to be little hope Of continue
ance of gambling in the city.

If reports from the high line camp

and made frequent trips between
Grand Junction and the workings. be-
tween whiles, those not familiar with
the situation thought nothing OF it,.
while those. on the inside knew that
the suitcase carried booze.
Matters came to a elimination last
pay day when the card sharper who
was under suspicion, was watched
closely and caught redhanded cheat
ing in a poker game. That settled
it. He was waited on by committee
and unceremoniously rushed out of
camp with the warning that if he
valued his hide not to return.

AMM0NS ANSWERS
ATTACK BY RYAN

In a letter to Secretary Antics of

Ammons follows the lead OF Congress-
man Taylor and puts himself firm
ly on record in favor of reclamation
work in Colorado.
May 19. 1914.
Mr.. L. Antics, President Chamber Of
Commerce.
Grand Junction. Colo.
Dear Mr.. Antics: For some unex-
planned reason, unless it is a part of
the campaign upon the part of the
strike, my attitude towards the
Grand Valley and Gunnison projects
has been entirely misrepresented by
misquoting a part of the statements
made. / have always and vet am
most earnestly in favor of the COM
pletion of those two plants and of
the fullest cooperation by the govern
ment in our state / stand squarely
on the western governors platform
unanimously adopted year ago and
reaffirmed at this years meeting.
You are doubtless aware that many
OF the old members OF the bureaus.
few of whom even know me, have
seemingly been opposed to every sug-
gestiOn | have ever made / know of
no harm | have done them and cannot
understand the object of what they
are doing. The governors program
recommended a little different plan
from that advocated by these gentle
men but that should be no reason
why they should start such opposition
as that which they seem to be sup
porting. Indeed. | might say that
had some of these same men not as
sisted in Withdrawing so much of
our public lands from entry, there
would have been sufficient money to
complete these enterprises years ago.
That has been done. however, and the
thing we now want to do is to make
the most OF 1t and secure the money
as best we can.
assure you that any report to the
effect that ! am not in favor of COM
pleting these projects and OF the full
est cooperation upon any reasonable
basis for future work is entirely err
roneous.
Very truly yours,

COURT SAVES MRS.
 LONGSTREET'S HOME

Athens, Ga November 2-The Uni ted States district court here today is sued an order restraining a life insur- ance company and E. A. Spencer, sher- If of Hall county, Georgia, from sell ing the home in Gainesville, Ga, of Mrs. Helen D. Bongstreet wife of Gen. James Longstreet, the famous Confed- crate soldier. General Longstreet died in Gainesville
 Mrs. Longstreet recently filed a pe- tition in bankruptcy and creditors have asserted that the Confederate general $ property should be handled by trus- tees. A hearing on the granting of a permanent injunction preventing the sale of the property, which is valued at S10,000, will be held on November 21.
 The Confederate generals widow, who applied for today's order, was active in behalf of the late Gen. Daniel F. Sickles, the northern general in the war between the states. when he was involved in financial difficulties some time prior to his death. General Sickles opposed General Longstreet in the bat tie of Gettysburg.
