STOKES MAKES STATEMENT
ON EDWARDS LIQUOR MOVE
In Special correspondent.

By Special Correspondent.
TRENTON, Dec. Accommodating
today in a statement to h press on
the announcement Of Governor-elect
Edwards of his intention to direct
the Attorney General to start no
ceedings testing the validity Of the
National Prohibition Amendment,
Republican State Chairman Stokes
declared that in the last campaign
in this state his party faced a situa-
ton unparalleled not only in New
Jersey, but in the history of the
country. His statement seeks neither
to detract from the Edwards victory
nor to criticise, but rather to show
that Edwards fight for Governor vas
made with the wholehearted support
=. of the "wets," the avowed purpose
being to elect a Governor of a state
who would take the position that laws
of the United States Government
could not infringe upon States rights
and powers without the consent of the
state itself.
among the powers this reserved
10 the state,' says Mr.. Stokes today,
"were the police powers and some of
ihe able lawyers of the country held
that the United States Government
could not interfere upon those powers
through the Eighteenth Amendment,
without the consent of the state itself,
IN NAtaI IL ~ wv NV ga W 49,
ed who would take this view and use
the of the state, within his
power, to bring action in the name of
the state, against the United States
Government, questioning the right
90 take from any state SO ~consenting,
its police powers, the Eighteenth
Amendment might be nullifed or over
thrown.
Acting under this advice, he lid
uor interests of the state, guided per-
haps by the LIQUOR interests of the
country, too the stand they did
against the Republican candidate.
This explains why the vote was con-
centrated we'll nigh, solidly on the
Governor and the Legislative candl-
dates not made a party of the effort.
1 make this statement, is no criticism
whatever of their action. They had
a perfect right as citizens. to defend
their business and their property
against what they deemed to be con-
fscation. l make the statement only
in explanation of the utter inability
of the Republicans to secure the
slightest detection from this vote, act
ing as it was, practically under the
advice of counsel.
The statement of the former gov
ernor is believed to have been issued
as an answer to some of the critics
within the Republican ranks as to the
way the last campaign was conducted
n the disastrous outcome.

JUVENILE BURCLARIE

Saturday night. o. F.. Erick-
son who clerks in the Carter
clothing store. went to play
pool with some friends after
closing hours and about LAS
wcarying of the sport. they all
went back to the store. where
they had n watermelon cached.
On their arrival. they noticed
that lower panel had been
taken from the door of the
ware room and set out to in
yestigate. They found a
young lad about fifteen years
of age. who had in his posses
sion a search light and had
been looking through the mer-
chandise. He had two pair of
trousers laid aside and had
been hunting through the
shoes but hid upon their ap-
proach.
The young men took the boy
into the store and held him un-
I'll the sheriR's arrival. He
gave a ficticious name and i'm
plicated another youth four
teen years Of age. The officer
brought in the other boy. who
gave the first boys real name
and denied having any con-
nection whatever with the af-
fair. The boys father was
notified by phone and he stat
cd that his son had not been
at home for three week 8 and
that he had been unable to To-
cate him. He requested the
marshal to lock him up.
The boy caught in the ware
room was very defiant and
swore at his captors in all Ian
guaees. He gave his ago
as twelve and declared they
had nothing on him as he had
taken nothing.
The case came up for hear
ing at Del Norte Friday NOR
ming and the boys were found
guilty and paroled.

NEW COAL DEALERS

A change in business circles
in Monte Vista occurred this
week when Faus Bros. pur-
chased the coal business from
the San Luis Valley Produce
Co. This is known as the w.
]. Clark coal business and E.
B. Faus, the manager, will
move his Office to the Clark
Office.
The San Luis Valley Pro-
duce Company, will move their
office to the location formerly
had by the Faus Transfer Co.
These men have been in
Monte Vista for the past thirty
two years, starting on a small
scale and growing steadily
with the town. The Journal
predicts that they will be sue
cessful in their new venture
even as they have in past busi-
ness deals.

MONTE VISTA MEN
ENTER MINING GAME

One of the biggest mining
deals that has been attempted
IN this section for many years
became n reality this week
when A. NJ. Collins and Hor-
ace Wheeler disposed of their
lease on the Monon mine mt
Sunnyside to u group of Monte
Vista men for, we understand.
a consideration around 800,
900.
This property has been a
steady producer for the past
two years, shipping on an
average Of twelve cars per
month. some of it being a very
high grade silver ore. At the
present time there is enough
ground opened up to keep the
new operators shipping inde-
'finitely.
The new company will be
represented in Creede BY
Michael Brady, who has been
conected with several very
successful financial deals in
the San Luis Valley. and r. I.
Fisher. who has been success
ful leaser in this camp for the
past twenty years. J. w.
Shaft, president of the First
National Bank of Monte Vista
and other business men of
that city are back of the COM
pany and this assures it ample
financial support.
Work is being prosecuted at
the present time with the
same force of men employed
by the old leasers, but more
will be put to work as soon as
preparations are being made
to install a new plant of mach
inery. Mining men claim that
most Of the ores in he Sunny
side district can be profitably
treated by proper milling
methods, and this new COM
pany, if they find the PROPOSE
tion feasible will undoubtedly
build mill sooner or later for
the treatment of the immense
bodies of low grade sulphide
ores found there.-Creede

FROM U. =. SENATOR THOMAS

FROM U. =. SENATOR THOMAS
To the Commercial Club.
Monte Vista. Colorado.
Gentlemen:
have Just sent you n wire in ans
wer to yours OF yesterday. asking
for four hundred refrigerator cars
with good daily average for tho
Eext two weeks. had previously
received . telegram from the Jour
nal to the same effect. The au-
thorities here have also been com
municated with. as matter OF
course. and they inform me that
they had already begun to move
cars In your direction although un-
able to supply the number which
you demand.
They tell me that the People OF
the San Luis Valley have unvitting-
iy contributed to the present crisis
by forcing the potato crop to an
unusual maturity by shutting OF
the water supply. thus bringing
them Into market fully month
earlier than usual. doubtless be-
cause OF the consequent profit such
policy promised.
Unfortunately the demand comes
at the precise time when the peri
shable fruit crop demands every
refrigerator car II can secure,
condition which doubtless did not
occur to the San Luis farmers when
determining to force the crop.
feel sure that the Traffic Divi-
sion here appreciates the situation.
for they have almost gone out OF
their way to assure me that It
would not be their fault II you did
not get every car that could be di-
verted to your use.
They feel. however, that you will
b. disappointed since similar de-
mands from other sections are
equally insiatent and equally i'm
possible to fully comply with.
Very truly yours,

FIRE IN LOCAL HOSPITAL

Excitement ran high In
Monte Vista Tuesday night
about ten o'clock when fire
broke out in the Monte Vista
hospital. The matron was
using a gasoline stcrilizer
when 1t became unmanage-
able and exploded both roof
and floor seeming to break in
to blaze simultaneously.
Help was summoned from
nearby residences and the
patients were carried to the
Fuller home across the street.
The building was damaged
to the extent Of about $500.
and the owners held only
$250O. worth of insurance.
Drs. Trueblood and Smith say
that they will Immediately
take steps to rebuild so that
they may give their patients
care without taking them out
of Monte Vista.
A lamentable condition con-
nected with the burning is the
fact that owing to delay the
fire department did not reach
the scene of disaster sooner. II
is said by those who were there
at the first that if they had
arrived within fifteen minutes
after the blaze started the
damage would NOT nave en-
ceeded ten dollars. II is re-
ported that seven calls were
put in for central before the
operator could be aroused and
that when she finally did give
the alarm that no one could be
located for some tine who had
a key to the city hall so that
the siren could be turned on.
and then to make matters
worse. there was no one pres
ent who could get the engine
started Immediately.
1t is to be hoped that this
will be the last occurance of
this kind. Fire-f9hting eff
cheney LAYS a great deal in the
arrival at once Of the fire de-
partmcnt. Cities which have
their alarm so attached that it
may be turned on from central
find it a good method and
others which have the alarm
easily within access of every
one, with a heavy fine for
turning in n false alarm have
found the method a success.
In fact almost anyway differ
ent from the system now in
use here would be a change
for the better.
