Ford man uieo iio

..st of Pueblo the night be-
sora From evidence so far
.,ooned this man and his
friend, on their way from
pueblo to their homes in Rocky
Ford, stopped at a road-house,
MAS Place" by name. and
hought some booze. No
matter how the man came to
his death, without doubt that
booze contributed to it. 1t was
the stopping at the road house
for the booze that brought
about a condition of affairs
that left a young wife a widow.
That road-house exists is a
fact. 1t has existed for a long
time, but why. There is no
reason on earth why a. road
house should be tolerated for
one day. Officers can. if they
will, put an end to them in
twenty-four hours if they
would but see fit.
Over in La Junta when the
strike started July l every man
in the Santa Fe shops walked
ont with the exceptions of one,
q man who was getting up in
years. That night a delegat-
ion from the strikers ranks
went to his home and told him
what he would have to do and
he was compelled to do it.
What he was told to do was to
quit work, go on strike. He
did not want to but threats
compelled him to act and act
quickly. Since then the ranks
Of the strike-breakers have
been very generally filled and
this old man decided to gol
back and seek his old job, but
found two things in the way.
One was that the job was filled
and the other was that he, be-
ing termed a new employe,
was too old. Now he must
seek other and unfamiliar
work.
Strikers are sometimes
strike-breakers. 1t is q known
fact that a lot of the shopmen
who went on strike at the |
Santa Fe shops in La Junta |
have gone to other railroad
renters and took up work and
striking shopmen from other

DOUBLE DRY LAW
TRIALS ARE SCORED
Brennan Says Supreme Court
Decision Violates Sense
OF Justice.
BY Univerrai Service.

The Supreme Courts decision last
Monday that a liquor law violator
could be tried and punished by both
State and Federal courts was sharp
ly criticised by Representative Vim.
cent M. Brennan tRep1 Of Michigan
yesterday.
In connection with a bill he intro
duced. designed to prevent double
prosecution. Brennan declared the
Supreme Court ruling was "a dis.
tinct shock to the average Amer.
leans sense Of fair play" The
statement continued:
/ do not believe in maudlin SYM
pathy for law violators. but it
seems a fundamental principle Of
criminal law in America that once
a man has been convicted Of crime
and he has paid society the pen
atty he should be permitted to go
his way.
II a man is acquitted in the
State courts, there is nothing to
prevent Federal officials from re-
arresting him and seeking a con-
viction for the same alleged crime
in the Federal courts. Such a
procedure Is abhorrent to the
American conception Of trial by
jury.
