ALLEGED FORGER is FREED
WOman's ExtraditiOn Is Refused as
Charge is Reported Dropped
(Denver Post)

Mrs 3. V. Groskins, arrested here
few days ago at the request of the
county attorney at Holbrook, Ariz,
will not be returned to Holbrook for
trial on a charge of forgery. She
walked out of the governors office
free woman, Friday, Governor
Shoup having denied the applica-
tion of Governor Campbell of Ari-
zona for extradition.
Three weeks ago Mrs. Groskins
was taken off an easthound Santa
F'e train at La Junta and arrested
upon the strength of a telegram
from the sheriff at Holbrook. She
was released later, when the sheriff
telegraphed that the case on which
the forgery charge had been based
had been settled and that the COM
planning witness had withdrawn the
charge.
Accompanied by her little son,
| Mrs. GOskins came to Denver. Here
she was arrested a second time up
on complaint of the county attorney.
| She refused to return voluntarily to
Arizona and Governor Shoup set
| the case down for hearing.
M. B. Waldron, attorney for Mrs.
GrOskins, submitted telegram
from the sheriff at Holbrook show
! ing the case had been settled and
that the complaint of the prosecut-
ing witness had been withdrawn.
Basing his decision upon this state
of affairs, Governor Shoup announc-
ed that the woman would not be
turned over to the Arizona officer
| who had come after her.
The above appeared in the Denver
Post of last Friday Constable Ed
Gardner, who had gone to Denver
after the prisoner armed with re-
QUESTION papers from Governor
Campbell, returned the first of the
week without the prisoner as is ex-
planned in the following letter
which County Attorney T. r. Greer
| Colorado:
Denver, Colo, Dec. 9, 1921.
Mr. Thomas R. Greer, County At
torney, Holbrbok, Arizona
Dear Sir:
After carefully considering the
application for the reQuisition OF
Mrs. B. V. Groskins, alias, Mrs d.
W. Groves, l have denied said appli-
J cation for the reason that it clearly
appears that she is not fugitive
from Justice, owing to the fact that
she had once been apprehended and
released in this State by the Ari-
zona authorities.
| Permit me to state further that
your agent, Mr.. Edmund Gardner,
has represented you here in most
faithful and efficient manner. / de
sire to commend him to you as
man who has done his duty in every
respect in the matter above referred
| to.
Very truly yours,

Governor of Colorado

| assure you that / will do my
utmost to guard and protect the
good morals and health and pro-

that end shall cause the entire
police force to actively cooper
ate, but only in an advisory way,

puties (the latter appointed by
the chief with the consent of the

charge of official duty, watching

WHAT CLAUDE DEVORE'S FRIENDS SAY

head of their public safety de-
partment and the people 81 Rich
mond should voice their apprecia-
alton Of him at Tie ballot box
with not only enough votes to
elect him but majority that will
give to him the co:nPi;ins mt
which he justly deserves.
We are somewhat unused that
some of his opponents are max
ing a great moral issue of the
race for this Office. There need
be but one answer to that camou-
hage and that can be answered
with a question. You caInot find
a minister of The gospel IN this
city who will not be glad to en-
dorse, Claude Devore as the best
Chief of Police that Richmond
ever had since it became a city.
Now, men and women OF Rlcll-
mond, we hope those of you who
really want good clean city and
who honestly want to see the
laws enforced, will go to the polls
Saturday and cast your ballot Tor
this big, brave and efficicrt officer
who deserves an endorsement al
your hands.
Respectfully submitted with
out the knowledge of Mr.. Devnre
bv a committee of voters with no
personal interest in the election.)

DAVE POWERS
FOR POLICE JUDGE
To the Voters of the City

To the Voters of the City
'of Richmond =
In asking your support for the
office of Police Judge of the city
OF Richmond, | do SO with a full
appreciation Of the responsibility
OF the office. My one impelling
motive is a desire to be of service
to the good people of this COM
nunity, and especially its youth
who are growing up among en-
Nironments which convict our
Christian citizenship of gross in
difference as to the enforcement
of the law
| do not think it necessary to
enumerate or point out the differ
ent forms of lawlessness which
exist in our midst. That crime
and vice flourish is a matter OF
common knowledge, but this fact
is not SO serious as the fact that
the inactive attitude of Our good
people condones or permits it.
Richmond needs an awakening
OF her public conscience. We
need to stop and take stock OF
ourselves, and while at such a
time many of us will review the
past with much regret. yet if we
believe in the Man of Galilee we
can turn our faces to the future
with the assurance that truth and
right will prevail.
To crush crime means a fight.
Are you willing to Stand in the
front lines? l am. My expert
ence, my association, and my
knowledge of the infested district
qualify me to lead this fight. If
elected as your Police Judge, |
will call together committee of
citizens including the ministers.
and in connection with the Chief
of Police and Mayor we will map
out a program the enforcement
of which will make Richmond a
! better and cleaner place in
which to live.
If you give me your support
Saturday, August 6, | will guar
antee that we will make Rich
Alond dangerous place for Grim
inals to attempt to apply their
trade or profession.
Most sincerely yours.

nice play in the fifth in catching

ten yards when he was retired

! play in the ninth inning. He
tried to make home on an out at
first. but instead. of sliding he
