CAPTURES BooTLEGGERS
Sheriff Downing cts Pair Doing a
Big Business

On Monday Sheriff l. c. Downing
landed a pair Of the smoothest boot
leggers that have ever operated IN
this section, and large amount Of
booze along with them. For some time
the Sheriff has noticed that the sign
ed receipts at the Lamar, Wiley and
McClave stations showed shipments
being made to Lee Wilson and Lee
Myers each for amounts far beyond
the needs Of any family, SO he watch
ed on Monday and discovered that a
woman driving an old prairie schoon-
err and having it loaded with all kinds
of cooking utensils, and even box
of poultry and leading an innocent
looking COW passed through Wiley.
Just afterwards a man entered the
Wiley station signed Lee Myers to a
receipt and obtained a shipment OF
whisky. The same man had that
morning signed Lee Wilson to re-
ceipt at the Lamar station. He left
and hired an auto and started for La
mar. Sheriff Downing was soon af-
ter him and captured him without the
booze in Lamar. He then went out
after the schooner and took posses
sion Of the whole outfit, getting both
the Lamar and Wiley shipments of
liquor besides another one obtained at
McClave. The pair now rest in Jail
and will have their trial before the
district court. The man is charged
with obtaining the booze under a
wrong name as well as unlawfully dis
posing of it. This good work on the
part Of Sheriff Downing breaks up a
bad gang and makes the biggest haul
of illegal whisky yet captured in this
county.

Explains How Coloradoans Nabbed
Convention for II

C. G. Nikirk, city passenger and
ticket agent of the Santa Fe railroad
who has been in New Orleans, La,
and Jackson, Miss, attending the ses-
sion of the Young Mems Business
Clubs Of America, which will hold the
1917 meetings in Lamar and Pueblo,
returned yesterday after fine trip.
Delighted with the reception given
the visitors in the south, Mr.. Nikirk
has returned to assist in preparations
for the royal welcome to the visitors
when they come to Colorado next
year. Colorado had hard fight to
land the convention for next year, he
stated, and also added the information
that the northern states do not pro-
duce politicians on the same scale as
do the southern states.
Cleveland and Akron, Ohio, James
town, N. Y, and Jersey City, N. j.,
were all after the convention and the
Coloradoans had to fight to get the
meetings.
Mr.. Nikirk explained that for con-
vention-getting bunch the Coloradoans
were well equipped. One member OF
the party was what he termed as an
"upto-date guy" who knew all the
latest songs and dances and who fitted
into almost any kind Of crowd. He
was good mixer. Another was q
hard headed young man who had 9
good business head while the third
was young man who had been raised
in the south and who had Travelled ex-
tensively through that section Of the
country and was gifted with the abil.
ity to make a stump speech. Col.

Too Far North

Lamar is situated too far north to
get public building from this con-
gress. The petitions sent from here
brought back the information that
owing to the deficit in the treasury
no small cities could expect public
buildings this year. In spite Of this
dope given out as consolation thirty
seven towns Of less than 1000 inhab-
itants situated in the solid south got
in appropriations ranging from $685.
900 to 100000 for public buildings

Charlie Gamble of the Wiley Journal
is the editorial joker of the county
press, but it was pretty rough on the
democratic candidate for county judge
for him to stick eff" on to the highly
laudatory write-up published last
week. No doubt the author Of the
article knows whereof he speaks but
it would have read better if Charlie
had not added that "tf" joker to it.

Union Church Services to Com
mence Sunday Evening.

Some of the Butler pastors were
accommodating about. the court
house lawn on Monday morning
as if they were locating suitable
places for heavy artillery. Such
was really their purpose as was
found out by inquiry. The bat
terry is to be put in action about
8 o'clock on Sunday evening. Just
who is to deliver the lombard
ment is held in secrecy. 1t will
be the opening of the summer
drive by the allied churches Of the
town. The weapons therefore
will not be carnal. Let it be said
in all seriousness that the local
pastors of our several city church.
es have at heart the welfare of
the public, and that they have
planned these union services to
that end. 1t is expected to lead.
up to q union revival. effort early
in the fall led by an able and con-
secrated evangelist.
