BOOTLEGGERS
Arrested and Suffer Penalty for Their
Nefarious Crime

The first arrest and conviction under
the new prohibition act took place in
this city on Wednesday, when John
Barker and his sou Jess were convicted
of the crime of bootlegging.
Early this week our police picked up
an itinerant junkman who was packing
a jag that he could scarcely stand up
under and after a little quizzihg suf-
ficient evidence was obtained to justify
a visit to the Barker home on the west
side, where considerable quantity OF
booze was secured and used as evidence
against the Barkers, who were found
guilty of bootlegging and John Barker
was sentenced to six months hard labor
upon the county roads, while his son
Jess drew penalty of three months at
the same job.

NEW VOTING PRECINCTS
County Commissioners Create Two
More Last Week

Instead of having only % places to
vote in Otero county there will here
after be 80, according to the action of
the county commissioners who, is ses-
sion last week, acted on the demand
which has been made on them for some
time with regard to changing the
boundary lines of number of the vot-
ing precincts in the county.
1t was necessary to create another
precinct in the vicinity of Bloom be-
cause of the fact that no less than GO
families have settled in that vicinity
within the last year. Quite change
was made in the two precincts at
Swink. There were no changes made
in any of the city precincts, except a
portion of the south end of precinct
No. Ia in La Junta being placed in No.
90.
The new precincts and those where
changes have been made are as follows:
Precinct No. Is takes in portion of
Swink and west to Timpas creek, south
to the Otero canal and north to the
Arkansas river.
Precinct No. l6 takes in the country
south of Hauck and east to Benton in
the Fairmount country.
Precinct No. 90 is created out of a
portion of precincts 2, Ia, l5 and 16,
south of La Junta.
Precinct No. 80 is about IL miles
square of the extreme southwestern
corner of Otero county.

ROCKY FORD COLORADO FRIDAY, APRIL T. 1916
MORE BLAzES
Stockyards Burned-Wine Has Plenty
Fried Chicken-Cover Wash
House Goes Up in Smoke


Hungry hobos who had prepar-
ed their morning meal over a
wood fire beneath the loading
platform, and had not taken the
precaution to extinguish the fire
before they moved on, is alleged
to have been the cause of the al.
most complete demolition of the
Rocky Ford stockyards shortly
before noon on Friday last.
An alarm of fire called the de-
partment to the scene about II 80,
but it was found to be too far
from the nearest Waterman to at
tach a line of hose, SO the steamer
was taken out and began pump
ing water from the Rocky Ford
ditch to such good purpose that
the fencing along the eastern side
of the yards was saved.
The fire damage was estimated
at $1,000, part of which was upon
box car that had been spotted at
the yards about an hour before
and it was badly burned before it
could be moved.
Barn Burned
On Monday forenoon the fire
department was called to the home
of Henry ID. Wine, COG North
Thirteenth street. A speedy run
was made to the place and the
blaze was quickly extinguished,
but not until it had badly burned
the chicken house and barn be-
cause of the fact that the fire had
gotten big start before it was
discovered.
The fire was caused by an incu-
bator that had become overheated
in some way, and H portion of Mr..
Wines loss was 80 fine spring
chickens.
Fire at Covers
The handsome suburban home
of G. j. Cover narrowly escaped
destruction by fire on Wednesday
morning.
At about i a. m. the family was
awakened by bright glare and
tumbled out to find flames burst
ing from the wash house about 20
feet away.
When discovered the entire in
terror WAS all ablaze and the
Cover boys turned their attention
to keeping the house from catch
ing fire. In this they we're aided
by the soaking rain of Tuesday,
and the result was that the home
was saved tho the window and
door castings, roof, ETC., upon the
side next to the fire were badly
charred and blistered by the heat
