TROOPERS CHARGED
WITH ROBBERY,
TAKEN TO Denver

Pueblo. Jan. 1.-The six United
States soldiers who are under arrest
for the robbery OF the Walscnburc
postofficc OF $4,000 were removed
from the Pueblo county Jail to the
county Jail at Denver yesterday by
United States Deputy Marshall JEFF
ferds. accompanied by Deputy Sheriff
John DinSman. The soldiers were
taken to Denver without being man
acled and seemed well behaved and
cheerful in view of the fact that they
face trial on serious charges. 0. b.
Howard, Albert c. Page and S. f.
Mortimer are charged with breaking
into the Walsenburg postoffice and
stealing package containing $l5.-
600. which was sent from the First
National bank of Pueblo to the First
National bank of WaIsenburg. r. B.
Rudd, Knox Dorski and Theodore
Frank are charged with assisting in
concealing the money after the rob-
berry.
The men will be held in the Den
Yer jail until after the federal grand
jury meets at Pueblo in April, and
then if they are indicted they will
be tried Il! this city before the fed
erai court. The order for their re-
moval to the Denver Jail was issued
by Federal Judge Robert +. Lewis. 1t
is supposed that the reason for the
removal was on account of the fact
that the Pueblo jail is crowded with
prisoners. A rumor is being circu-
lated that a number of other ar
rests Of United States soldiers are
to be made in connection with the
Walsenburg postoffice robbery, and
that the additional soldiers to be ar
rested will be brought to the Jail in
Pueblo to be held pending the trial.
At the time the six soldiers were
brought to Pueblo it was reported
that Trinidad girl and other SOL
diers were under suspicion in con-
l,ection with the affair

COL, LOCKETT
SEES AMM0NS,
URGES TROOPS
BE WITHDRAWN

Denver, Jan. 1.-Both Col. James
Lockett. in command of the troops
in the southern strike zone, and Gov
ernor Ammons yesterday expressed
themselves as convinced that there
would be no trouble whatever upon
the withdrawal of the troops from
Colorado and that the troops could
be withdrawn very soon. Neither
could foresee any probable contin-
gency which would make 1t necessary
to send state troops into the strike
districts, although the governor said
he would not hesitate to do SO should
the necessity arise.
Colonel Lockett calico on Governor
to the withdrawal of the troops.
They conversed few minutes and
decided to wait until they could hear
from Lieut.. Col. John c. Waterman,
who has Independent command of the
troops in the northern zone. AS
>soon as Colonel Waterman can be
reached by telephone the governor
and Colonel Lockett will meet again.
Colonel Lockett. when asked for an
opinion of the situation in the south
ern zone said: II am convinced that
!, all parties are acting in absolute
faith. and that there is no possible
ity of further trouble between labor
and capital in the near future. The
operators are giving the men work as
<soon as they can. and believe the
men appreciate this. OF course. less
coal is being taken out than usual,
and this makes it hard for those
wanting work.
Il have as yet received no orders
not even to be ready to leave-but it
is the general understanding that the
ually, probably in the order indicated
by the governor, all the troops leaV-
ing the northern zone before the men
of my command start on their way
Il have been in correspondence
with the sheriffs of the counties con-
cerned," said Governor Ammons,
land I have received their assurance
that they will promptly cope with
any individual acts of violence that
might arise A careful Investigation
has shown that both sides are sin
cere in their wish for future peace,
and I have no fear of trouble. The
operators are anxious to put the men
to work as quickly as possible. and
the men will take their jobs as fast
as they can get them. The leaders
have promised to restrain them from
acts of violence
"Our men will be glad to leave the
field" said Colonel Lockett. IF they
are ordered to their home station that
means Fort Oglethorpe, Ga. They
have been under severe discipline
necessarily for the last eight months,
and they will be glad to get back
with their friends and families.
How soon can | get my men out of
the zone?" the colonel repeated In
answer to question They can
be ready quicker than the railroads
will have trains for them, I'm sure
of that And I'll guarantee that 7
can get trains and load my men and
all equipment on them in space of
four days.

Nantageously for us between La
Basse and Carency, between Albert

and in the neighborhood of Blanc
Sablonk, which is near Craonne. At
this mentioned point we also demol-
ished certain German earthworks.
In the region OF Perthes and of
Beausejour we have held the gains
made by us on December so. During
all the day of December 81. the aC-
tiyity of the opposing artillery fore
es was interrupted.
In the Arsonne the enemy at
tackled violently almost the entire
front in the forest of La Grurie At
certain points he advanced for a
distance of fifty yards, but counter
attacks were at once delivered.
In the region of Nerdun there
have been violent artillery engage
ments.
Between the Meusc and the Mos
sellc, to the northwest of F'hrey. the
Germans delivered during the night
of December 3O-31 and in the morn
ing of the 31st no less than six VIC
lent counter attacks for the purpose

us on December 80. Each of these
attacks was brilliantly reDulsed.

TALKS ON THRIFT.
 HARRY LAUDER ON THRIFT

Harry Lauder, the famous Scotch comedian. who has made millions laugh, and who commands afabulous salary for his vaudeville sketches, believes in thrift. He wouldn't be Scotchman if he did not. Easy come, easy gc" Is the rule in profes- sions where big money is made for little effort The theatrical profess sion is noted for it's spending pro- pensities, but Harry believes in sav- ing. Out of his earnings he accumu- lated enough to subscribe $50,000 to the British War Lcan-patriotism at four per cent.
 Harry has few homely maxims on thrift that have been widely cir culated during the war period, in the hope that his followers would profit thereby. "MAher wadna waste" says Harry, "and l would be disgracins her memory if I wasted" Here are oOIHC Ol HID uISo.
 1. Behave toward your purse as you would to your best friend.
 2. View the reckless spending of money as criminal and shun the com pany of the reckless spender.
 g. Dress neatly, but not lavishly. A bank pays a higher rate Of interest than your bank.
 4. Take your amusements judici-i ously. You will enjoy them better.
 D. Don't throw away the crusts- sat them. They are as nourishing as beef.
 G. It is more exhilarating to feel money in your pocket than beer ill your stomach.
 7. Remember, it only takes twenty shillings to make pound, and twelve pennies make a shilling. 8. You can sleep better aft r ,a hard days wo.k than after hard days idleness.
 9. Get good value from your tradesmen. They watch out that they get good money from you. 10. A bank book makes good read ing-better than some novels. A. B. A. fi

. The merchant who puts his propo- .sition before you in an advertisement is proving that he vants-is anxious to obtain your patronage and to do so, puts his wares and prices on dis play open and above board. He has nothing to hide. He's not making a low price to one person and doubl- ir.g the profit when he sells, perhaps, to you. The merchant who solicits your patronage in this clean business
 way is entitled to your consideration. Your own interests demand that you consider him before the "just-as-
 good" fellow who is afraid to com pete in the open.

HELPING THE HOBO.

In the past years, during the cold est weather of winter, the big cities Of the country have sheltered and fed the hobo without asking any ques- tions or exacting any return therefor, but change has recently come over their way of coing things. Now, when the hobo applies for lodging and food he is given a chance to earn it by working. The new method has caused marked falling off in the number of applications for food and lodging and it is said that large percentage of those who do apply go elsewhere when informed that it is a question of no work, no eat.
 This is a system that should have been adopted long ago, for the indis- criminate aid of the hobo by indi- viduals and municipalities has re- suited in the making of more hobos.
 The new method of. handling the hobo element in the big cities prom ises to simplify this task immensely.

rN INE BLUFF ROGRESS
 ROSPERITY
AN UNWIsE DECISION.

The Democratic state central com mittee appears to have b en as un- wiislA as it was injudicious in the ruling that d citizen of Garland county was not entitled to vote in the recent Deme primary nor~to' have his name on the ballot as a candidate, because of the fact that he was the candidate of the Repub- lican party three years ago. The Garland county committee ruled that ht is eligible.
 According to this ruling, it will be necessary to raise all the Democrats pleted by death-or deserticn.
 Judge E. J. Kerwin of Pine Bluff opposed action by the state central committee, declaring the Garland county Democrats should be permit ted to handle their own affairs, and that if the former Republican was not what he should be Garland Demo- crats could be counted upon to do the proper thing.
 This was reasonable and sensible.
 According to the s,ate committees rrling, Democrats virtually close the gates of the party to converts.
 The ruling was foolish and uncalled for. The Democratic party should welcome the voters who come to req liza that they have been mistaken, and now desire to align themselves with the party that stands for the interests of all the people all of the time. Another thing, the state cen tral committee should not interfere with county committee in deciding such a question as whether a mSn who pledges himself to support the nominees of the party is entitled to vote.
 We are moving forward, and the people will not long tolerate such high-handed proceedings.
 The state central committee may have thought it was acting for the best interests of the party, but, as a matter of fact, it was acting solely for the candidate against the former Republican-the candidate who was evidently afraid to submit his claims to the people; the candidate who was able to get help from the state com miitee when the members of his own county committee, refused to close the doors to converts to Democracy, or to prohibit the Democrats Of Gar- land from deciding which of the men they desired to represent them.
 The state central committee de- clares it will not certify the accused man as the Democratic nominee, even if he receives majority of the votes in tA Democratic primary.
 Is this sdenocraey?
 It is not. @ < & |
