INDUSTRIAL BOARD
FINALLY APPOINTED

Gov. Gunter couldn't get by with
his Industrial Board appointed early
in the session of the legislature. 1t
was composed of Joel Grantham.
ex-saloon keeper; John F. Pearson.
farmer and d. c. Burns. politician.
1t was generally considered around
the Capitol that if the governor had
shut his eyes and drawn three names
out of the whole state as they draw
for a jury he could have hardly done
worse.
Anyway the Democratic Senate
wouldn't confirm those men. After
three weeks a new list was not in.
The new appointees are Hiram E.
Hits of Denver. Geo. W. Densmore
of Alamosa, Democrats. and A. New
ton Parrish of Lamar. Republican.
This bunch was confirmed at once.
The new board doesn't contain an
ex-saloon keeper but it isn't much to
brag about for suitability, consider
ing that this is really a very impor-
tant commission.
Those interested in seeing that la
Dor gets fair deal are not at all
enthusiastic over the appointments.
