ENDORSE PAROLE
OF oRSoN ADAMS

Denver, June 12.-The parole board
of the department of justice in WASH
ington today recommended that a pa
role be granted Orson Adams, the for.
mer Grand Junction banker who Is
serving a six-year sentence in the fed
eral penitentiary at Leavenworth for
for the wrecking of the Mesa County
National bank, of which he was head.
Adams has served just half his sen
tence.
Following this action by the board,
Senator John +. Shafroth and A. NJ.
Stevenson of Denver, called upon Pres.
ident Wilson and made strong plea
in Adams behalf. Before going to the
White House they called upon ATTORNEY
General Gregory.
The chief obstacle, apparently, to the
granting of the parole is the inclina-
tion of the attorney general to oppose
clemency. Senator Shafroth is laborng
diligently to win over this member of
the cabinet, however.
A year ago strenuous effort was
made by many prominent Colorado cl'-
iZens to obtain either a pardon or a
parole for Banker Adams. but the op
position of the attorney general at tina.
time prevented President Wilson from
granting the request. Petitions signe
by 5000 of Colorado's citizens, incud-
ing the federal district attorney who
prosecuted him, district and county
judges of most of the Colorado judicial
districts, ministers, lawyers and even
most of the citizens of Grand Junction
who suffered through Adams schemes,
were sent to Washington.
Adams has insisted ever since he was
sent to prison that he intended to start
work as soon as he was released to
"making good' and repaying every
dollar Of the money that was lost
through his failure. The persons who
lost through his financial collapse main
tained that he meant what he said and
would fully make good.
Orson Adams was president of the
Mesa County National bank at Grand
Junction. He was a pioneer settler in
the Grand valley and was one Of the
builders Of that section of the state, as
well As power in politics. He was
implicitly trusted by thousands of de-
positors. But his bank collapsed and
the federal grand jury indicted him on
charges Of misapplication and misap-
preparation of funds, embezzlement,
making false entries on the books, and
conversion Of the funds Of depositoi..
Adams maintained that he had tried
to save the leading industries Of the
Grand velley from ruin by supporting
them with the funds of the bank in
technical violation of the federal bank-
ing laws. His plans failed. He was
sentenced to Leavenworth June g. 1919.

The cattlemen held meeting at
Rifle last Monday, at the close of which
two or three auto loads of cowmen
Went to several sheep camps and ad-
vised the owners to move their flocks
The most of the sheep were ON leased
land and besides they will be moved
anyway within few days to the high
grazing grounds in the forest reserves.
There was no loud or boisterous talk,
apparently the object of the cattlemen
being to sound warning against the
encroachment of sheep upon what they
consider cattle territory. Nothing fur
ther has been heard Of the matter and
no trouble is expected.

THOSE ACTOR BOYS IN VACATION

II is a long time since the patrons
of the H n. G. c. were given such a
surprise as they were given Saturday
evening. 1t was a long time coming,
for in real amateur style the boys had
to be late and the audience was begin
ming to get nervous especially as the
orchestra that had been sworn in on
a pile of Bibles the height of the club
house, failed to appear, and therefore
could not sooths the nervousness that
by S:45 had completely invaded the
audience. However, when the less pa
tient were turning their heads toward
the door, the numbering noise of the
rising curtain was heard, and the au-
dience heaved sigh of relief and ap-
prevail as they were transported into
a beautiful mountain camp, and from
the time that Bill Bonner dropped the
Murphys until Pemberton pardoned
Dunbar, the audience was kept laugh.
ing or quasi weeping. There was
just enough of the dramatic to keep
up the interest and yet not enough to
interfere with the comedy. The boys
deserve a great deal of credit for their
fine showing 1t was the cOncensus
of opinion that il was a remarkable
performance for the first attempt. 1t
would be unjust to all to pick out
individual stars for all acquitted them
selves well, each one in his own
sphere. A. Mckinney was a real Ir-
ish comedian and brought about
rounds of applause in his work with
Mervin Umbach as TOOts. The songs
led by Bill Bonner were well received
and applauded. H. Quinn was unbeat.
