FEDERAL COURT
CONvENES HERE
Grand Jury Called to Trans
act Huge Volume Of
Business

nebaker, Pueblo; Daniel b. Castillo,
Gardner: Ira ]. FARES, Canon City;
F. F. Holvert, Alamosa: E. j. Rosen-
aur, Pueblo; John Mcdonald, Pueblo.
These men comprise a federal grand
jury yesterday empanelled by United
States Judge Robert E. Lewis, in the
federal court here to act as such for
the October, 1921 term.
Indications are that this jury will
transact more business than any
similar body in the history of the
state; there are more prisoners in the
Pueblo and Denver county jails rest
ing under federal charges, and more
charged with offences against the gov
ernment but out on bail, than ever
before.
This condition obtains largely on
account of the new laws relating to
the Importation of narcotics. and that
with regard to transporting stolen
motor vehicles from one state to an
other. But there are many prohibi-
llOn law VOCATION cases, some DaSeO
on improper use of the United States
mails, and offenses to which Uncle
Sam pays particular attention.
How long the jury will require to
investigate the many charges which
will be presented by United States
District Attorney ]. Foster Symes, is
problematical, but court officials state
that ther is on hand the heaviest grist
in the states history.
After the twenty men selected from
the 35 veniremen had been chosen and
sworn as a federal grand jury. Judge
Lewis issued his instructions and an
nounced that he had appointed
Senator S. w. De Busk as foreman of
the jury.
Among the cases outside of those
which may grow out of the grand
jury's Investigations. which 1t is un-
derstood will be tried at this term of
court here, is one against the Colorado
Near Beer company of Pueblo,
charged with making beer of the
higher than statutory formula per-
centage of alcohol. Another is with
relation to Chevrolet car claimed by
local motor company. and which
was seized in the hands of an alleged
bootlegger. the motor company claim
ing the car for the balance due them
on the purchase of the same. Another
acse is that of Earl Haynes. charged
with the manufacture of 2,400 pints
of liquor.
1t is not expected that any OF the
cases growing out of the grand jury's
deliberations will come up for trial
before next month.

SCHOOL ELECTORS
IN DISAGREEMENT

There is a tempestuous tempest In
the tea pot of the Grow school dis
trict the school of which is five miles
toward Pueblo from Rye.
Last Saturday there was n vote
taken in both the Rye and the Crow
districts on the proposition of con-
solidating these two districts and the
Abbey district for the purpose of all
three enjoying the privileges of high
school at Rye.
Rye voted almost unanimously In
favor OF the proposition as did Abbey
n week or so earlier, but on Saturday
the vote of the Crow district was tie
on the vote of 22 to 20.
And in consequence thereof there is
to be a contest which in all probability
will go into the courts.
Among the charges made by those
who favor the consolidation. is that
three of those who voted against the
consolidation proposition were not en-
titled to vote. and therefore their votes
should not be counted at all.
Also 1t Is claimed that of those who
voted against the proposition. but ono
has any children to send to the school.
Further. II is claimed that the whole
fight against the proposition In tho
Crow district. grew out OF personal
grudgc which one OF the opposition
leaders has against one of the direct
ors who favors the consolidation.
