Appeal Taken to
County Court

A lawsuit, which promises tc
be very interesting was begun in
Justice Gregg's court Monday
and on appeal taken to the coun-
ty court.
The case is Jno. Grattan VS.
J. +. Wick and grew out of a
defective division fence which
resulted in the interviewing of
their stock, Mr.. Grattan being a
breeder of Shorthorn registered
stock and claiming damages
from Mr.. Wick because of the
interviewing with inferior stock.
Mr.. Grattan also brought in a
bill for the feeding of Il couple
Of mules parts of two winters
and also for some time spent in
driving Mr.. Weeks stock out OF
his place and also charged Mr.,
Wick $500 per year for five
years as his half of the upkeeI
of a division fence, which, &C,
cording.to Mr.. Grattan was on
his, Grattan's land. He also
had Mr.. Wick charged witt
SIG. 90 for work done on rail
road dixie which he claimed the
latter had agreed to help remove,
but had according to Mr.. Graf
tan, only worked with his team
couple of hours.
Attorney Geo. Is. Campbell
represented Mr.. Grattan and At
torney J. W. Barnes Of Colder
appeared for Mr.. Wick.
An appeal was taken to judge
Jamcson's court when Justc,
Gregg sustained an objection
raised by Mr.. Campbell whcl
Attorney Barnes attempted t,
prove that the fence was not ;
division fence, being on Mr.
Grattan's land, and that Mr.
Grattan could not compel Mr.
Wick to help maintain Il fenc
on his own land. Justice Gregg
sustained the objection on tn
ground that the fence had beer
used as a division fence be
tween the two farms by com
mon consent, the fact of its be
ing a lawful fence was immater
ial.
The final outcome of the cas-
will be watched with much in
tercst as it involves scycra
knotty points Of law, and Mr.
Wick's counsel stated that Mr.
Wick had a counter claim agains
Mr.. Grattan.

Town Can't Buy
Land; Citizens Will

The town board met last thurs
day evening to hear Attorney
CampbelPs opinion with refer
ence to the town purchasing a
right of-way for the Tramway
Company to extend its tracks up
town. Everyone present includ-
ing the board, was very much
disappointed, howev when
they were told by Mr.. Campbell
that he had consulted some of
the most prominent attorneys in
Denver in an effort to devise
some way IN which it could be
legally done but none were able
to suggest plan. Mr.. Camp
bell submitted written report
which included citations of Su-
preme court decisions which held
that such a transaction could not
be legally made. Very promin-
ent among these decisions was
the recent one in which the City
Of Denver was estopped from
building the Motfat tunnel even
tho the proposition was voted on
and carried by large majority
of the taxpayers, which many
will remember,
Some suggested that the town
certainly would be justified in
buying a piece of ground for
park purposes and that then
they might grant the tramway a
ri & h to f. way across it. Mr..
Campbell pointed out that this
would merely be a subterfuge
and could be proved to be such
and that the law would be viola
ted just the same.
Another thing, too thaJ pre-
vents the board from any such
transaction is the lack Of any
appropriation that could be used
for such a purpose. Again the
members of the board would be
violating their oath of office to
uphold the constitution of the
state.
The only alternative left is to
raise The money by private sub
scriplion.
A meeting was called Friday
evening by the President of the
Community Club and a commit
tee with A. II. Barth as chair
man, to select his own assistants
was appointed. G. V. jackson,
who did effective work on the
fare reduction, was selected to
pass a paper and he has met
with complete success, having
secured the amount necessary.
A marjority of the Strawberry
Committee was present at the
meeting and the money in the
hands of Treasurer Burton was
voted to be applied to this pur-
pose.
Final negotiations are under
way, and work will begin soon,
we are told.

Fred 7. Newton 4
Killed in Mine


beyond expression Wednesday
morning when the news rapidly
spread that Fred T. Newton, one
of Arvada's respected citizens,
had been fatally injured ina tung
stem mine known as the Wheel
man Mine, eight miles north Of
Boulder at about seven O'Clock
that morning.
Full particulars were not forth
coming at that time. and as
nearly as could be learned he
had gone into the mine alone and
was afterward found unconscious
in the workings with his head
crushed. supposedly from the
result of an explosion.
Mrs. Newton was sent for and
in company with her daughter,
Mrs. c. M. Duncan left in an
automobile at about II o'clock.
Word was received later in the
day from Mrs. Duncan by her
husband that the physicians said
there was just a slight chance
for his recovery.
The circumstances under which
he was killed as nearly as can be
ascertained are these, that Mr..
Newton was working under a
stope loading ore onto a car. A.
bove him was a board roof which
is intended to protect the work.
men from falling rock, but owing
to big fall of rock Monday one
of the boards in the roof had
been broken, leaving a hole
which had not been repaired,
While Mr.. Newton was work
ing at the stope a man was work
ing above drilling for a charge
and a small rock was loosened
which fell thru the hole striking
Mr.. Newton in the center of his
forehead and crushing the skull
to the base of the brain.
He was found by fellow work
men about half an hour after
the accident happened and was
rushed to the hospital at Boulder,
where he died early this morn
ing without regaining conscious
ness.
Mr.. Newton leaves a widow
and eight children, all Of whom
survive him. The children are

their country, one at the Oar

of a recruiting camp. He leaves
also brother in Denver, Harry,

torney, who by the way, is a
candidate to succeed himself to
this office, which he has filled
efficiently as far as we have
heard, is the busiest man in the

parts of Sans district, which
comprises six counties. He lust

tons of the law were being re-
ported. When he arrived there
ne even found his chief prosecu-
ting witness in one case arrested
for fishing without a license and
it became his duty to get the
witness out of trouble on the
technicality that the man had a
license, but had left it in his
coat pocket in his boarding house
only a couple Of hundred yards
away from where he was fishing
when the game warden pounced
upon him. While the warden
was adhering to the strict letter
of the law that the fisherman
must have the license on his per
son, yet 1t was 50 plainly a case
OF thoughtlessness on the part of
the fisherman that Mr.. johnson
secured his release thru the At
torney Generals Office.
While Mr.. johnson was away
on this trip, his able and ever
alert deputy, Chas. E. Friend
took a posse of deputy sheriffs to
Petersburg Friday night and
raided a resort full of midnight
jewellers, capturing. thirty-three
OF the participants including the
proprietors who will answer to
the charge of bootlegging and
disorderly conduct.
Some Of Mr.. Johnson's friends
jokingly asked him if this was
politics. but he stoutly denied
it and it seems that these things
just happened to come all in a
bunch.
The principal thing is that
Mr.. johnson is not Sinking his
responsibilities and at the same
time he is not going out of his
way to find cases to prosecute
for political effect.
At a time like this it is quite
common for officials in authority
to be very lenient with trans
grcssors Of the law and where a
large family having a number of
votes gets into trouble, it has
been said that certain officials
high in authority in jefferson
county have given their personal
bond. Now, of course they have
a right to do SO. but it looks bad
to see them do these things, be.
cause they Immediately become
interested in the one accused and
are lending their influence to the
side which is directly opposed to
law and order. Our officers are
paid to see that violators of the
law are apprehcndcd and prose

district attorney or judge they
cannot afford to show an undue
interest in persons who are ac-
cused Of violating our laws,

School Board Will Build
Two Frame Buildings

The school board has decided
to build two frame buildings of
one room each to relieve the
congcstcd con ditions in the
school. They will be built either
on the high school grounds, or
the first grade school grounds,
with the idea of accommodating
the third and fourth grades.
The fire restrictions of the town
may prevent them from the first
grade grounds altho for temper
airy use it might be permissible.
The idea Of the two buildings is
that they could be easily remov-
ed, possibly to some other part
of the district, should a high
school building be decided upon.
Robert Dennis, Jr., has asso.
ciated himself with W. c. Car
negie in the fish business and
will take care of the country
trade of the Broomlield, Semper,
Ralston, Clear Creek, Wheat
ridge and Maple Grove districts.
The farmers appreciate having
fresh fish brought to their doors
once or twice Il week and Bob"
can be depended upon to be
there Johnny on the spot. "

that the warrant Indebtedness

means that uni ess a special levy
