DISTRICT EDITORS

Last Friday evening at the Hotel
Williams the members of the editorial
profession, together with their ladies
to the number Of eleven, partook of q
six O'Clock dinner, after which the Mt.
Sopris Editorial association was organ.
lied.
The meeting had been called by Ed
win A. Bemis, editor of the Littleton
Independent, past president and pres
ent field secretary Of the Colorado
Editorial association
In addressing the meeting, Mr..
Bemis explained the benefits which
have been derived by the publishers
Of the Eastern Slope and of other
states through organization, much Of
this benefit coming from the protec-
tion afforded from space sponges who
seek by tricks that are foul and
ways that are dark to work the easy
newspaper for much free publicity.
In addition to affording protection
against the free space CRATER, the as
sociations have assisted their members
in looking up the financial rating of
many would-be advertisers, whose bus
mess was refused except on q cash
basis, and in these and many other
ways have the associations proved Of
| great financial benefit to their mem
bers.
At the close of Mr.. Bemis' remarks
there was some question as to the od-
visibility of perfecting an organiza-
tion, owing to the small representa-
tion, and it was decided to elect tenn
porary president, leaving the matter
Of more complete organization to
some future meeting.
Frank E. Peirce was then chosen as
president, "The Mt. Sopris Editorial
Association" adopted as the name of
the new organization and July fixed
as the time of holding the next meet.
ing, at which time Mr.. Bemis expects
to be present again, it being the hope
of all present that more representa-
tive gathering can be had at the later

Instructs Grand Jury to Inves.
tigate LeadviIIe's Alleged
Official Protection :;
DEFENDANT sQuEALs

Pueblo, May 29.-The question Of
liquor violations in Leadville, with
special reference to the alleged accept
ance Of money by the city for protec-
tion Of bootleggers, will be the subject
of investigation by the federal grand
jury as q result Of the special charge
made by Federal Judge j. Foster
symes to that body today.
The charge was the outgrowth Of the
hearing Of the case against Frank Ger
mon, Leadville saloonkeeper, and one
of thise arrested in the McClenahan
raid last February. Germon was fined
$3.50 and given 80 days in Jail, but
during his examination, his attorney
James Stewart, stated that Leadville
had been in the habit Of collecting
amounts of 800 every three months
from proprietors of soft drink parlors.
Germon exhibited a number of receipts
signed by city officials which he said
were not for fines, but for the privilege
of selling liquor. t.-. l- ,..Ie
In charging the jury, Judge Symes
said:
"It appears that there has grown up
recently method of conn:ving to per-
init violation Of the law; that officers
of the law, by system Of fines, have
allowed bootlegging to continue in
consequence Of requiring payments in
the guise of fines. Some complaints
against such conditions in a western
Colorado town were reported to the
district attorney, and today one Of the
defendants has stated such conditions
exist in Leadville. 49, --
"This is far more serious violation
than bootlegging on the part Of indi-
viduals, inasmuch as it is violation
on the part Of men sworn to enforce
the laws.
"Do not hesitate to indict such per-
sons as you believe to be guilty of
the practice"
The federal court has adjourned un-
til June 4. On June the cases Of
a number Of Leadville defendants who
pleaded not guilty will be heard.
