IT'S NO JOKE WITH THEM.

Glenwood, Col., People Want Summer
Home for President There.

The people of Glenwood Springs, Col., were in earnest when they instructed their senator to introduce a bill in congress appropriating several hundred thousands of dollars for a presidential mansion at that resort, according to R. C. Leinbach of Glenwood Springs, who was at the Coates house last night.

"We have the finest resort in the world, bar none," said Mr. Leinbach, "and we think it would be the place for a summer home for the president. A White House No. 2 could be built there that would prove a very popular place not only for the president, but those people who have business with the chief executive during the torrid months. People in the East seemed to take the bill introduced by our senator as a joke, but the citizens of Glenwood Springs and Colorado mean it and intend to agitate the proposal.
