There is said to be an oasis in every

This may or may not be true as a gen.
eral proposition, but it certainly came
to pass in Lamar Monday-or else a
wonderful mirage was produced. For
the first time in long dry spell a
Lamar jury acquitted a man charged
with bootlegging. The officers found
liquor of more or less alcoholic con-
tent in a car belonging to Volo Creaje
standing on the streets Of Lamar and
he was arrested and tried before n jury
in Judge Kirkpatrick's court. Attor-
ney w. E. Fisher offered testimony
showing that the liquor was there
without the knowledge or consent of
his client and the jury declared him
not guilty.

adoption of resolution regarding the
proposed special session of the State

The resolution prepared by Attorney

it being as follows:
Resolution.
Whereas, it has been brought to the
attention of the Rotary Club of La
mar, Colorado, that certain residents
of Pueblo, Colorado, are requesting the
Governor of Colorado to call a special
session of the Legislature of said State
for the purpose of considering and
passing an act which has been pre-
pared by said residents, said act be-
ing called "The Conservancy Act of
Colorado" and,
Whereas, it appears from an ex-
animation of said Act that it vitality
thtSNs bnt Wtlldfe VI tne Nisy VI iSa-
mar, the County of Prowers, and all
of southeast Colorado, depriving the
citizens thereof of many cherished
rights, privileges and immunities, and
if the said Act were passed would i'm
pose upon them government and tax
alton without representation;
Now, Therefore, Be 1t Resolved, by
the Rotary Club of Lamar, Colorado.
that it is opposed to the calling of a
special session by the Governor of
the State of Colorado; that if spec
ial session of the Legislature be called
that it is opposed to the passage of
the Act entitled, "The Conservancy
Act of Colorado;" that Governor o.
II. Shoup. also our representative and
senator from this District be handed
copies of this resolution, and that n
copy of this said resolution be sent to
all of the Rotary Clubs in this District
urging similar action by the other Ro-
tary Clubs of said District, and that
further, a copy of this resolution be
presented to the newspapers of this
locality for publication.

There are ten night watchmen in

not deter burglars from taking apart
II 3.foot by 4.foot safe in the Office Of
Joseph Riskin, a diamond merchant,
on the fourth floor, Monday night and
stealing the contents, worth many
thousands of dollars. The burglary
was made public to-day by Lloyds,
which carries the insurance.
Riskin closed his place at o'clock
Monday evening and, accompanied by
an armed guard, took the most valu-
;,ble Items of his stock to the safe
fdeposit vaults Of the Hartman
National Bank. He cannot tell what
he left in the safe until his in
ventories are checked up.
six watchmen are on duty in the
bank OF the Guaranty Trust Co. on
the ground floor every night and four
watchmen patrol the upper floors and
check themselves up on time clocks
Tenants have felt reasonably safe
under the circumstances in spite OF
the fact that the Guaranty Trust re-
Gently warned all of them to put their
valuable possessions in a safe deposit
box over night.
When Riskin got to his place OF
business on Tuesday morning the door
was locked. He opened it and went in.
His safe was lying around the floor in
several pieces and mingled with them
were tools used by the burglars
These were the only clues found.
Entrance to the office was gained
by the use of key. 1t is assumed
that the burglars concealed them
selves somewhere in the upper part
of the building Monday afternoon be-
cause the lower door is locked in the
evening and no one is admitted OF
allowed to leave who is not known tC

ST. PAUL, Mimi, March 8 Copy,
right, 1921).--"Never would allow
Mrs. Preus to go through such an
ordeal"
This statement by Gov. ]. A. o.
Preus of Minnesota has given such
added velocity to the storm which has
arisen here over the confinement of
seven women and five men jurors for
two days aud two nights that it was
predicted to-day there would be no
more mixed juries" in this county.
To this extent. therefore, the fight
Of women's organizations for an abso.
Lutte equality Of rights with men has
received decided setback.
The jury OF seven women and i've
men, selected IN the case of George
Thoemke, charged with stealing an
automobile was "hung up" for t-7o
days and two nights before n verdict
of guilty was returned. No sooner
had the jury been discharged by
Judge F. NJ. Catlin than a great hue
and cry went up.
Husbands of the women say the
end of good citizenship was reached
when, at night, their wives were
locked with the men in one jail room,
where there were no screens or cur
tains to shield them.
One OF the irate husbands so
vehemently outlined to Judge Catlin
his position as an American taxpayer
that he narrowly escaped citation for
contempt.
"Never have been thus spoken to
in my official capacity" said Judge
Catlin tO-day.
The shocking" details are just
coming to light. Said Mrs. Josephine
Brown;
1.-THE first night we Just sat around
on the edges of the beds and talked
about the case until we were nearly
dead. Then some one mentioned go
ing to bed am sure it was man.
1T really was rather funny. The
men withdrew to a corner where they

sheets off the beds and tried in vain
- make screens of them. Then We
crawled in and pretended to sleep.
But we didn't sleep much. l can

all night
I'm he morning. long before day
light and TO the accompaniment OF
loud snores by the men, we were rlp
and dressed.
The second night was a repetition
II the first.
Men not personally affected by the
, case have joined in the argument and
are willing to lend a hand ins dis
putting the right of the State to COM
pel their wives, or any wife, TO en-
dure two nights of confinement with
strange men.
And what Of the wives OF the hus-
bands on the jury? Nothing much
has been heard from them, although
one has brought trouble on her head
