Colorado Statesman

GO EARLY NEXT TUESDAY AND VOTE YOUR PARTY TICKET THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RACE COUNTRY PARTY JOHN E. RAMER REPUBLICAN NOMINEE F0R SECRETARY OF STATE VOL. XIX. JOHN E. REPUBLICAN SECRETARY The Republican nominee for Secretary of State, John E. Ramer, is one of the best known young Republicans in the state. He has been active among the workers of the party and high in the councils for a number of years. He is a very successful farmer in Larimer county, and also is engaged in raising of fruit on an extensive scale on the Western Slope. Mr. Ramer was deputy secretary JOHN E. RAMER. of state under Timothy O'Conner during the Buchtel administration and became thoroughly familiar with the work of that office. His record during that term of office stamps him as eminently fitted for the place he now seeks. He is as well equipped for the place and work of secretary of state as any man in the state, and none stands higher than he in financial integrity and business responsibility. John Ramer's word stands ace high with all who know him. He is a careful business man who has made a success of his own affairs and this bespeaks an economical business administration of the affairs of the state should he be elected. He ranks among the foremost business men of Fort Collins. To show Mr. Ramer's strength with the voters of the state it is only necessary to point to the flattering vote he has received each time he has come before the popele for an office. In 1910, when the state went Democratic by large majorities, Mr. Ramer was only beaten by James B. Pearce for secretary of state by 1200, and in the recent primary for the nomination to the same office he has received a total of 35,013 votes. The colored voters can make no mistake in giving Mr. Ramer their hearty support. There is no question as to where he stands when it comes to dealing with our people. CLIFFORD C. PARKS REPUBLICAN NOMINEE FOR GOVERNOR. Clifford C. Parks, Republican nominee for Governor, came to Colorado in 1897, and his first work was that of trammer in the Little Chief mine at Leadville. He worked there for a year and a half, when he removed to Gunnison and became a lumber jack. He worked in a lumber yard there until 1885. From 1885 to 1887 he was assistant secretary of the Colorado State senate, and removed to Glenwood Springs in 1887, when he secured a position as clerk in the First National bank, of which he is now the cashier. In 1890 President Harrison ap pointed him receiver of the land office at Glenwood Springs, which place he held for four years. The T. H. knowledge and experience gained there gave Mr. Parks some advanced ideas on public land questions. In 1894 he was elected state auditor on the Republican ticket, and served two years. In 1897 he was elected mayor of Glenwood Springs and continued in that position for successive terms. He was elected president DENVER, COLORADO. SATURDAY. NOVEMBER 2 1912. T. W. G. Is What the Law Should Provide for All—The Proposal to Repeal the Fifteenth Amendment Dead Issue. I come at once to the present condition of things, stated from a constitutional and political standpoint. And that is this; That in all the Southern states it is possible, by election laws prescribing proper qualifications for the suffrage, which square with the Fifteenth Amendment and which shall be equally administered as between black and white races, to prevent entirely the possibility of a domination of Southern state, county or municipal governments by an ignorant electorate, white or black. It is further true that the sooner such laws, when adopted, are applied with exact equality and justice to the two races, the better for the moral tone of state and community concerned. Negroes should be given an opportunity equally with whites, by education and thrift, to meet the requirements of eligibility which the state legislatures in their wisdom shall lay down in order to secure the safe exercise of the electoral franchise. The proposal to repeal the Fifteenth Amendment is utterly impracticable and should be relegated to the limbo of forgotten issues. It is very certain that any party founded on the proposition would utterly fail in a national canvas. What we are considering is something practical, something that means attainable progress. All that the law or constitution attempt to secure is equality of opportunity before the law and in the pursuit of happiness, and in the enjoyment of life, liberty and property.—From speech of President-elect W. H. Taft, at dinner of the North Carolina Society of New York. State Hist & Nat Hist Society State House ESDAY AN ADO THE JOURNAL DENVER, COLORADO of Colorado Banker's Association in 1911, and is the vice-president for Colorado of the American Bankers Association. He is also president of the First National Bank of Meeker, president of the Newcastle State Bank, a director of the First National Bank of Eagle. He is vice-president of the Glenwood Hot Springs and Hotel company, which corporation owns the magnificent Hotel Colorado and the famous cave baths at Glenwood Springs. He is also president of the Glenwood Light and Water company, and vice-president of the Cardiff Light and Water company. Coming back to Mr. Park's view on public land questions, here is what he said in a recent interview about the conservation policy forced upon the west by Pinchot and Roosevelt: --- "Let me give you one concrete instance of the injury to the poorer people which the present conservation policy has wrought. There are practically no sales of coal land now because the policy of the government has forced the prices up to $150 and $200 an acre. No new coal fields are getting into the hands of the people who will develop them. The result is that those who now operate coal mines are in virtual monopoly of the coal business of this state and prices have gone up. "This conservation policy is the direct bequest of the Roosevelt-Pinchot regime and its bureaucratic methods; and yet the Bull Moose in Colorado has the front to defy Roosevelt in one breath and in the next to defame Roosevelt's conservation policy. Can you beat that?" and Mr. Parks smiled broadly. HON. CHAS. W. WATERMAN Republican Candidate For U. S. Senator (Short Term). Chas. W. Waterman was born in Waitsville, Vermont, in November, 1861. He received his early education in the district schools and a village school at Morrisville, Vt. After attending a twenty weeks' term at St. Johnsbury Academy, he tackled the big proposition of preparing himself for college, unaided. After a long struggle at home study, he entered the University of Vermont in 1880 and graduated therefrom in 1885, being compelled to lose one school year on account of the lack of funds. He taught school for one year at New London, Conn., and for the next two years was principal of the high school CHARLES W. WATERMAN at Fort Dodge, Iowa, reading law all the while in the office of Wright & Farrell. In the fall of 1888 he en- tered the law department of the Uni- versity of Michigan, and graduated in June, 1889. He removed to Denver in 1890 and entered the law offices of Rogers & Shafroth. His rapid rise in his chosen profession was due to a deep and profound preparation and a brilliant judicial mind. Mr. Waterman has heretofore steadfastly declined to turn his time and attention to politics, where his friends believed his great grasp of public questions and interests, his distinguished ability as an orator, and his unquestioned reputation for absolute probity and disinterested devotion to public welfare must of necessity win for him the recognition and success he has attained in the law. When his party offered him the highest office within the gift of the people of the state, he accepted and will make a splendid race, helping to carry the entire state ticket to success. BENJAMIN C. CATREN REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE FOR STATE AUDITOR The COLORADO STATESMAN takes pleasure in recommending to the colored voters, Mr. Benjamin C. Catren for State Auditor, as his record will show, he is a man well qualified for the office he aspires, and should receive the united support of our people. Mr. Catren was born on December 19, 1861 and came to Colorado in 1869 and located in Georgetown, where he has resided practically ever since. He received his education in the public and high school of Georgetown. In 1880 he was appointed deputy clerk of the District court In 1885 he was appointed recording clerk of the state senate. After the adjournment of the senate, he entered the state auditor's office as bookkeeper and continued there NO 8 until the fall of that year, 1885, when he was elected county clerk and recorder of Clear Creek Co. He was elected on the Republican ticket by a large majority; was re-elected in 1887 and in 1888 received two-thirds of all the votes cast in the county. He served four successive terms as mayor of Georgetown. Since retiring from the clerk and recorder's office in January 1892, Mr. Catren has devoted his entire time and his money to the upbuilding of the mining industry of his county. In 1902 he was appointed superintendent of the Terrible mine, one of the largest mining properties in this section, and is still connected with this property. He was associated with Senator Stephen B. Elkins in the mining business from the year 1880 up to the time of the Senator's death, and is now associated with the sons of the late Senator. Fraternally he is a past officer in the Independent Order of Odd Fellows. EZRA T. ELLIOTT REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE FOR LIEUTENENT GOV- ERNOR Ezra T. Elliott, the Republican nominee for lieutenant governor, was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, in 1845, and obtained his education in Ohio City. He came to Colorado in 1872, lived in Denver about two years and then moved to Del Norte, where he has since made his home and built up a splendid law practice. He is probably one of the most widely known men in Colorado and has a state-wide law practice. Ever since taking up his residence in this state he has been an active and hard worker in the ranks of the Republican party and four years has been a member of the Republican State Central committee. He is an ex-President of the San Juan Pioneers' Association, a member of the Sons of Colorado, a member of the Ohio Society of Colorado, and of the National Republican League. The nomination for lieutenant governor was given him by unanimous vote of the Republican state assembly, and came entirely unsolicited. Ezra T. Elliott is peculiarly fitted for the position of lieutenant governor. With a strong, vigorous character, a trained judicial mind, of mature years, a reputation for fairness and square dealing without a single stain, he will make a strong race and is undoubtedly the right man for the place. He is a firm believer in the principles of his party, and that he can be depended upon in any emergency to do the best thing for the people of the United States at the right time. The COLORADO STATESMAN hopes that his election will be by a large majority. VICE-PRESIDENT SHERMAN DEAD Lay for Many Hours in Stupor Before End Came at Utica Home-- Family at Bedside JAMES S. SHERMAN Western Newspaper Union News Service. Utica, N. Y.—After a long illness, Vice President James Schoolcraft Sherman died at his home in this city at 9:42 o'clock October 30th of aremic poison caused by Bright's disease. He had been sinking since early morning and it was realized that death was a question only of a few hours. There was slight relief shortly after 7 o'clock, caused by an apparent improvement in the condition of the kidneys, but it did not prove real or lasting and at best gave only temporary hope. At 9 o'clock the patient's temperature rose to 106. From that time his condition rapidly passed from bad to worse until the end. Mr. Sherman was unconscious when the end came and had been in that condition over two hours. Soon after Mr. Sherman's death Dr. Fayette H. Peck, the attending physician, issued the following statement: "The vice president died at 9:42 p.m., without regaining consciousness for a moment. He was perfectly quiet. He died in the presence of his wife, her brother and sister, his two brothers and his three sons and their wives. He had been entirely unconscious since 7 o'clock, when he had a period of partial consciousness, lasting for about fifteen minutes. He died in an uremic coma as a result of JAMES S. SHE Bright's disease, heart disease and arterio-sclerosis." Mrs. Sherman bore up bravely under her husband's death, as did the other members of the family. Born and Died in Same Ward. James Schoolcraft, Sherman, vice president of the United States, was born October 25, 1885, in the same ward of Utica in which he died. When he was two years old his father moved, with his family, to a farm two miles south of the village of New Hartford, and here they lived until 1868. In the fall of 1868 Sherman's parents purchased a house in the village of New Hartford, where they continued to live until the death of Sherman's mother, in 1896, his father having died the year previous. Sherman lived with his parents until, 1881, when he was married at East Orange, N. J., to Carrie Babcock, taking up his residence in the Seventh ward of the city of Utica. While he lived on his father's farm he attended the district school, half a mile from home, and when old enough to do so, he assisted in such work on the farm as a boy of his years would be capable of doing. After removing to the village of New Hartford he attended the public school of that town, and later attended the Utica academy. Later he attended the Whitestown seminary, a preparatory school situated in the village of Whitesboro, four miles distant. From this school young Sherman entered Hamilton college in the fall of 1874, and was graduated in 1878. He gained a considerable reputation as a declaimer in both school and college, carrying off first honors in declamation at the end of his freshman year. He also enjoyed a reputation as a debater and was one of six chosen from his class at the conclusion of his senior year to contest for prizes. Began Study of Law. After leaving college Sherman began at once the study of law in the office of Beardsley, Cookinham & Burdick, at Utica, N. Y. He was admitted to practice two years later, and at once formed a partnership with H. J. Cookinham, his brother-in-law, and former Mayor John G. Gibson. He continued the practice of law in partnership with Cookinham, with various changes in the personnel of the firm, until January 1, 1907, when he withdrew as a member of the law firm. In 1899, with other Utica business men, he organized the Utica Trust and Deposit Company, now one of the leading banks in central New York, and was chosen as its president, which position he has since occupied. The New Hartford Canning Company was organized in 1881 by his father and another gentleman, and after his father's death he became president of the company. He also was interested, in various ways, in many other local enterprises. Sherman's first active work in politics was the year succeeding his graduation from college, when he spoke a few times in different parts of the country in advocacy of the election of Alonzo B. Cornell, Republican candidate for governor, making his first speech in the town of his residence. Mayor of Utica in 1884. During the last fifteen years Sherman campaigned in various parts of the state, having spoken in most of the important cities of the state and a great many minor places, as well as in half a dozen or more other states. During various campaigns he spoke in substantially every town in Oneida and Herkimer counties. He was chosen mayor of Utica in 1884. The city was then, as now, normally Democratic, but he was elected by a substantial majority. At the end of his term, which was for one year, he declined a unanimous renomination. He was first named for Congress in 1886, the contest being quite a spirited one, there being half a dozen candidates, his chief competitor being RMAN Henry J. Coggeshall, then state senator from that district. Sherman was renominated each succeeding two years by acclamation until 1896, when there was a contest for the nomination, his competitors being Seth G. Heacock of Herkimer, now state senator, and John L. Sayles of Rome, Oneida county. Since that time he was nominated by acclamation each succeeding two years until his election as vice president. He presided over the state convention of New York, and was secretary of the Oneida county Republican committee in 1882 and for the three following years was chairman of the committee. He was a delegate to the Republican national convention in 1892. On Appraisers' Board. On Appraisers' Board. In 1898 Wherman was appointed by President McKinley a member of the board of general appraisers of the city of New York and the nomination was confirmed by the Senate. It was his desire at the time to accept the appointment, but political and business friends at home, including the Chamber of Commerce and the Republican county committee, passed resolutions and appointed a committee to wait upon him and urge him not to retire as a member of Congress, and in conformity with the desires of his constituents he declined the appointment. Sherman, early in his congressional career, became a prominent member of the House, and during his last few terms in Congress was numbered among the leaders. His parliamentary ability was early recognized and perhaps no other member was so frequently called to the chair to preside over the committee of the whole. He was one of the closest friends of Speaker Reed, as he was of Speaker Henderson and Speaker Cannon. chairman of the Sherman was a candidate for the speakership with Thomas B. Reed retired. For twelve years he was chairman of the committee on Indian affairs, and his work as the head of that committee received unstinted praise from all concerned in the work of the committee, without regard to the party. He was also a member of the committee on rules and of interstate and foreign commerce. Sherman was a regular attendant at the Dutch Reformed church in Utica since his marriage, in 1881. Prior to that time he had been attending the Presbyterian church at New Hartford. For five years he was treasurer of his church, and for three years chairman of the board of trustees. ```markdown ``` AFRO-AMERICAN CULLINGS The negro commercial opportunity is by far better than the Jew was at the beginning. In the first place, the negro has a mighty constituency. There are 10,000,000 persons of his own race to be fed, clothed, doctored, drugged, sheltered and buried. At the lowest estimate, it will take ten dollars per month to feed, shelter and clothe each person, or $120,000,000 annually for the race. Let us suppose there is a profit of five per cent. net on this volume of business; if so, that would yield $6,000,000 annually in the hands of the business men who controlled negro trade. This would give 3,000 negro merchants a living income of $2,000 per year. The Jew had to go outside of his race for business. He had to override racial barriers to succeed commercially. The negro can turn his racial disadvantages to advantages. The negro can succeed commercially among his own people—he has the numbers. But, more, the Jews never were an industrial factor in society. They were, and are, too few in number to figure in the labor market, the agricultural field and in the industries. The negro has a monopoly, to a large extent, on labor. He has physical strength and endurance. He has numbers to man large jobs. He can furnish labor for a Panama canal or a transcontinental railroad. He is a reliable, tractable laborer. This country needs the negro. He is the best common laborer that the world knows, free from strikes and lockout. This country is dependent upon negro labor. This makes the negro independent. With these points of advantages the negro can enter into the commercial world and succeed, provided, of course, there is racial co-operation. And this there should be. Not every negro will stand by negro enterprises, for this would be impracticable and inexpedient. Let the negro take advantage of race prejudice and complain not. When white clerks insult negro women and will not accord them courteous treatment, let the negro simply go ahead and build a store of his own. If a store, owned by a white person, will not treat negroes as other patrons are treated, then let a negro open a shoe store; and if all the negroes buy shoes of the negro merchant. Someone will miss the trade. We might carry the illustration into further detail, but the point sticks out: The negro has a most inviting commercial opportunity. Will he see it? If he does, will he seize it? -From the Southwestern Christian Advocate. Misery is so fond of company he'll walk two miles ter spend de day wid you, but when you can see him comin' des tell him it ain't yo' sociable day an' slam de door in his wrinkled old face—Atlanta Constitution. Crime antedates civilization and almost began with creation, and has grown in proportion to humanity. It seems like the Good Master in creating man created in him a weakness that he has never been able to overcome. It seems that our greatest men suffer from the same malady that has so long infested man—namely, crime. We don't believe that crime is always committed because of a malicious or malignant desire for same, but oftentimes because of inability to resist. Man's mind or conscience is very often invigled into the idea of might is right and under such pressure he is often led into temptation.—Memphis Bluff City News. Woman doesn't care to shy her hat into the ring. What she most wants is to get her finger into one. It has taken the women of Greece many centuries to win for themselves a place in affairs comparing in importance to that their ancient sisters held, but Catherine Panagiotaton shows they are succeeding. There never was a woman physician in modern Greece until Miss Panagiotaton gained permission to practice. Her road was not easy, for recognition of her ability came only after a long stay in Egyptian hospitals, where her success at last attracted the attention of the profession. The young woman's goal was a professorship in the University of Athens, where no woman before her time had been admitted to the faculty. The Grecian gray-beards shook their heads, but bowed in the end to her undeniable ability, and a petticoat now has a place on an Athens lecture platform. Ridicule is the weapon of a small mind, but, nevertheless, it is sufficient to hinder many men in a righteous career. A Chicago woman leaped into the water to save a man who she discovered was her husband. But she was game, even then, and brought him ashore. When a man's wife goes away for a week, he doesn't really call it a vacation for him. He calls it a parole, or a reprieve. Woman addicted to "high society" habits are undesirable life insurance risks in the eyes of leaders in the American Life convention. The negro in business has been making unusual progress. In 1911 the American negro, engaged in farming, merchandising, real estate, manufacturing, lumbering, insurance, printing and publishing, engineering and banking, contributed over $700,000,000 to the wealth of the nation. Through persistence, initiative and co-operation, thousands of negro men and women in all parts of the United States have developed small business ventures into substantial business enterprises. They have saved and invested money carefully; they have put into their everyday business life the suggestions given them by Dr. Washington and other men who are vitally interested in the race's welfare. Today the outlook for the negro in business is not only bright but actually inspiring, says the Survey. Negro men and women are quietly getting a firm hold on the essentials of success in business—the buying of homes, the extension of business, the opening of factories, the establishment of banks and the better appreciation of commercial pursuits. Dr. Washington has emphasized the importance of the ten million negroes in America becoming the owners and users of their share of the 270,000,000 acres of unused and unoccupied land in the south and west. He declares that if white men can establish and operate sawmills, coal mines, brick yards, lime kilns and other enterprises so as to secure wealth and happiness, he can see no reason why the negro should not engage in similar work and reap some of the benefits which come to those who own, develop, manufacture and trade in the natural resources of the country. He declares that in at least 25 places in the south and west negroes may build towns and cities similar to Mound Bayou in Mississippi and Bloey in Oklahoma. To carry on this constructive work negro men and women from the colleges and universities are needed. Negroes must organize. There are places in the south today, according to Dr. Washington, for 5,000 additional negro dry goods stores, 8,000 grocery stores, 3,500 drug stores, 2,000 shoe stores, 1,500 millinery stores and 2,000 negro banks. Whoseover is sensible of his own faults carps not at others' failings. Tuskegee institute has no more enthusiastic admirers than Dr. P. A. Johnson and Dr. E. P. Roberts of New York, who attended the recent session of the National Medical association, which was held at the institute. While at Tuskegee they had an opportunity to see what a great work the school is doing for the race, and they have returned home declaring that Tuskegee institute is one of the most interesting places in the United States. "No one could properly estimate the value of Tuskegee institute with its many and varied activities without first having seen it," Dr. Roberts stated to an Age representative. "The institute comprises an area of 3,000 acres of fertile soil, a vast number of costly building and a natural scenery that is strikingly picturesque and fascinating. The science of agriculture, chemistry, mathematics, geology, geometry, ay, zoology, hygiene and sanitation is taught and the results from such teachings are startling and exceedingly gratifying. Practical Christianity is taught, and the entire community is enveloped in a spirit of mutual helpfulness and friendly rivalry in their scientific and industrial pursuits." In a flirtation between a woman and a man she always thinks he is in earnest because she isn't. In his promotion to the rank of major, just announced at the war department, Charles Young of the Ninth cavalry, a negro, becomes the first man of his race to attain that grade in the regular army of the United States. Major Young is also the only negro officer of the army who was graduated from the military academy at West Point. He has served with the Ninth cavalry. Tenth cavalry and Twenty-fifth infantry, all negro regiments, during his entire service, with the exception of a year's service in the Seventh cavalry, a white regiment. He is now attached to the American legation at Monrovia, Liberia, and at the request of the Liberian government has been permitted to assist in the organization and instruction of the Liberian army. His record, it is said at the war department, is without blemish. Other women are nearly always suspicious of a beautiful blonde who has long, dark lashes. Sometimes a girl gets a fine reputation for propriety, when, in fact, it's because she has a complexion that will kiss off. The person who doesn't worry much about what folks think of him is usually pretty well thought of. The words of wisdom are not hard for the simple to understand, if received in simplicity. The man who's back from vacation has that much worry off his mind. H.

This is a year when political sincerity and private integrity are to be placed on trial for the sake of a people's future assurance and welfare.

It is a part of the principles of the Republican party to nominate only good and capable candidates, and so strictly has this rule been followed this year that a personal comparison of our ticket with that of the opposite forces would be odious. President William Howard Taft, who heads the national Republican ticket, represents the highest type of manhood and will triumphantly get the endorsement of the voters on November 5th. Clifford C. Parks, candidate for governor, needs no introduction to the people, and we urge the lovers of good government to see to it next Tuesday that he will be elected chief executive of the state. Ezra T. Elliot, candidate for lieutenant governor, is a gentleman of the highest sterling qualities and deserves, which he will receive next Tuesday—the loyal suffrage of the voters of Colorado. Samuel H. Kinsley and Jesse J. Laton, candidates for congressmen-at-large, Rice W. Means, for congressman, First District, and Charles Q. Ballreich, congressman of Second District, are men whose ability, eloquence and personal influence are so well and generally known as to be unquestioned. John E. Ramer for secretary of state, James B. Dick for treasurer, Benjamin C. Catren for auditor, Wm. B. Gobin for attorney general, Mrs. Helen Wixson for superintendent of instructions, John Campbell for justice of Supreme Court, Charles R. Dudley, George D. Statler and O. J. Pfeiffer for regents of the University, Clyde C. Dawson for S. S. senator, long term, and Charles W. Waterman, U. S. senator, short term, complete a state ticket which stands as a model for all other parties and political organizations in any manner engaged in the campaign. The candidate for state senators and representatives and the entire county ticket are composed of men whose ability and character fit them for these honorable positions, and they will, without a doubt, poll the majority of voters on election day. Considering the individual worth of these several candidates and the aggregate responsibility for which they are qualified and prepared, no unbiased voter can-vote against them without stultifying his conscience, while their hearty support at the polls is a duty which every honest citizen can take a pleasure in performing.

The Dawson family moved to Cañon City, Colo., in 1876, where young Dawson attended the public schools and graduated with the first high school class in 1884. He attended Denver university in 1884-85, and then went to Ann Arbor, Mich., graduating from the law department in 1888. Returning to Cañon City, he commenced the practice of law as a member of the firm For weeks The Colorado Business Men's Home Rule League has pointed out the evils and harmful results of Blanket Prohibitory Laws in the states that have already tried them. A. H. We have shown that 17 American commonwealths have rejected State-Wide Prohibition after sad experiences. We have shown the deplorable conditions now existing in the eight remaining states. We have proven our contention that Colorado's present effective Local Option Law is far better than State-Wide Prohibition by quoting to you the actual opinions of the country's greatest leaders and thinkers—men of national prominence—whose observations are worthy of your serious consideration. of Waldo & Dawson, in 1889. He came to Denver in 1910 and became a member of the firm of Hayt, Dawson & Wright, and the firm has built up a fine practice. Mr. Dawson is largely interested in irrigation matters, and is considered one of the ablest and best posted attorneys in the state on irrigation law and water rights. His devotion to his adopted state of Colorado and the principles of the Republican party make him the ideal candidate and will make him a most valuable representative in the Senate. He is a man of the highest character and firm in his convictions. We have shown that State-Wide Prohibition would mean big economic loss to Colorado, would deprive every community of the right of self-government, would destroy our valuable tourist business and would NOT stop the sale of liquor.

Early in life the family moved to Nebraska, where he received his education in the schools of that state. In 1899, because of the failing health of his father, the family moved to Denver, and here he has lived ever since, being engaged in the newspaper and printing business. This is what he says about his candidacy: "I have been nominated for state representative, and am one of the eleven nominees of the Republican party for that office from this county, being the only race representative on any of the tickets contending at the coming election, I am especially anxious to receive the full voting strength, regardless of differences that may exist on other political matters. It matters little whether I am elected or not, so long as I receive the full support of my people, for that will be taken as proof of the loyalty we have the one for the other. If, on the other hand, political differences cause us to overlook the ties of race kinship, it will be taken as proof that our confidence is withheld from each other. Therefore, however you think the election may end, I ask your vote, and your influence with your friends in my behalf. I trust that you are assured that I will do my best for my race, for my party and my state."

William Pitt. It 1s repetitive history that many a person who has spent hours upon hours upon combining and recombin- Ing the factors of his problem, has had the solution thrust upon his attention by some casualty of daily life. Such occurrences are the spice of research and lead on many a weary investl- gator in hard and exacting labor. Here 4s the field where the trained observ: er has all the advantage. For how many fortunes may never haye been realized only because no one had eyes to behold the revelation. In our own time every beet-sugar factory was confronted with these two problems: How most cheaply to move the beets from the storage sheds to the slicers; and how to cleanse the beets from the dirt, small stones, and rubbish carried from the earth silos. A German factory hap- pened to have a considerable quantity of beets piled alongside an open drain. A very heavy rainstorm came on, and when It was over {t was found that the beets had not only been carried to the very door of the factory, but were cleaned as well. From that time on every factory has flushed its beets along a pipe from storage to plant and saved money by combining the two ‘operations of transportation and wash- ing. Thomas Kingsford discovered the Process of making starch from Indian corn by chance. Starch could be made from potatoes and from wheat, but It had always been found impossible to separate cornstarch from the accom: panying gluten. The wheat starch methods did not answer. Kingsford was a mechanie working long hours, and all his experiments were made in his own kitchen with his wife’s pans, tubs, and buckets as his laboratory utensils. The unsatisfactory result of one of his experiments—a mush of cornmeal und water—he disgustedly threw into a garbage tub. A little later his wife threw into the same tub some lye wastes (potash solutions). Upon emptying the tub the next day, Kings- ford was surprised to find a small xmount of fairly pure starch at the bottom. His wife fortunately remem- bered throwing in the lye, and thus the basic principle was discovered. Kingsford soon worked out a practical process for making cornstarch com- mercially, and made a great fortune. In 1742, Thomas Rolsover, a me- chanle, of Sheffield, discovered the art of silver-plating. He was repairing the handle of a knife In which both copper and silver were uséd. Accl- dentally the two metals were fused together. Based upon this observation he developed the new process. Upon a thick ingot of copper he bound by fron wire a thinner ingot of silver. ‘The whole was then heated in a re- verberatory furnace until the edges of the silver ingot were observed to be- xin to melt. The two ingots were then removed from the furnace, slowly cooled and pickled, cleaned and rolled to the desired thickness, The result was a plate of copper more or less thinly covered with silver on one side, ‘This was the first Shefleld plate. For fitty years following, the copper was plated on one side only, and the cut edges showed the copper. Later, the process was so perfected that no cop- per was left exposed. All the silver. plate of the world was made by this process, until electroplating was dis covered and made commercial. Words Multiply Fast. Figures have just been made public by Prof. A. 8. Cook of Yale university as to the number of different words in the authorized or King James ver ston of the Bible. Excluding inflected forms of nouns, pronouns and verbs, Professor Cook makes the total 6,568. Including these the total ts 9,884, ‘The working vocabulary of the average man falls far short of this number of words. On the other hand, not a few contemporary authors must far ex. ceed It, considering their realms of colloquial speech and technical termi- nology that the biblical narrative does not touch. Besides, there {s the tm. mense extension of both knowledge and of words in the physical sciences, about which the educated man of to- day must know something. Hence, as a matter of fact, during the past century dictionaries have waxed bulky, and words have multiplied at an astounding rate. Thus between the first and latest editions of Web: ster’s dictionary the word total mounted from 70,000 to 400,000. ‘Bifene( @Nebece cy chico A correspondent of the New York Evening Post has discovered that Shakespeare wrote the Psalms. We have long been of that opinion, but we lacked the proofs that are now forth- coming. Shakespeare's name appears in many spellings, either three, four, ‘or five vowels being admissable. By- ery one knows that in such cases the golden mean should be taken. In this case It 1s obviously four. Moreover, the number of consonants ts six. ‘The mystic number, then, {s forty-six. Turn now to the King James Bible, and to the Forty-Sixth Psalm. Count from the beginning and you will find the forty-sixth word to be shake; count from the end and you will find the forty-sixth word to be spear.—Q. E. D. Brilliant Boys Who Made Mark in English Parliament. Youngsters Who Had Not Attained Majority Made Laws for Britain— Fox's Comment on Speech of William Pitt. | It ts contended that the British house of commons is the most widely representative legislative body in the world, since it includes not only all social grades, from the miner and the artisan to the scions of ducal houses, but numbers among its members men of all ages, from the youth in his twenties to the veteran of 80 years. So long ago as the year 1613 there were forty legislators in the commons who had not attained their twentieth year, and, {neredible as {t may seem, certain of them were only 16 years of age. Edmund Waller, the poet ahd cour: ter of Stuart days, was a schoolboy of 16 when he qualified as a member of parliament. He was, as Clarendon says, “nursed in parliament,” and probably was the only man that ever lived who could look back ‘two-thirds of a century to his debut as a legis- lator. Charles James Fox was only 19, and still had a vivid and painful memory of his floggings at Eton, when he was “returned” to parliament for the “pocket borough” of Midhurst. He was not many weeks older when he made one of the finest “maiden speeches” ever heard at Westminster “I hear it spoken of by everybody as & most extraordinary thing,” his de- lighted father wrote to a friend, “and I am not a little pleased with tt.” Chesterfleld was a legislator at 20, at which age he entered commons as a member for St. Germans. His first speech fs said to have electrified the house. His triumph was vitiated, how- ever, by the fact that, inasmuch as he was not of age, he was liable to a heavy fine for speaking in the house. Still more precocious was Walliam Pitt.' Although he had passed his twenty-first birthday when Appleby sent him to Parliament, he, within a few weeks after taking his seat, estab- lished himself as the keenest debater and finest speaker in the commons. After his maiden speech a member of the opposition is reported to have said to Fox: “Pitt will be one of the first men in parliament.” “He {s so al- ready,” replied Fox. Pitt, as everybody knows, scarcely had completed his twenty-third year when he was made chancellor of the exchequer. At 24 he was prime min- ister. State Medical Aid. A writer in the Long Island Medical Journal makes a plea for the nation- alization of medical practice on a so- cialistic basis. Just as the schools and the mail service have been taken from the hands of competitive bust- ness, he holds that the public health should be organized as a public serv- ice; that now the criminal, the in- sane, etc. receive the attention of the state so why should not the sick man be likewise cared for at the ex- pense of the state and not left to the mercy of the business methods that prevail in medical practice? “Human life and happiness,” says this thinker, “should be the objects of solicitude ‘on the part of the state in whose em- ploy the medical profession should be enlisted as the great conserver of the most precious of the nation’s natural resources.” Rta dhdirka R@ATIID hice keniow: Lowell once met an acquaintance (ot dublous standing), whose cheerful face and happy demeanor led him to ask the cause of such exuberant felle- ity. “Why,” sald the genial smiler, “I've discovered a way to make my fortune. We all know that the reason for the fine flavor of the wild duck {s the wild celery on which It feeds. Now I propose to feed tt to the domestic duck, and supply the market.” Some weeks later, on meeting his acquaint- ance again, Lowell found him quite depressed, and inconsolable. “Why are you looking so unhappy? I thought, the last time I saw you, that you were on the point of making your fortune with ducks. Wouldn't it work?" “No,” was the reply, “the d—n things won't eat It.” Chair for the Editor. Although the source of this little anecdote about Mark Twain {s not definitely known, there {s no good rea- son, according tq Harper's Magazine, to doubt its genuineness: One morning soon after Mr. Clem- ens had purchased an interest in the Buffalo Express, he arrived at the of- fice to begin his duties as editor. There happened to be no one present who knew him. A young man rose very brusquely, and asked if there was any one he would like to see. It is reported that Mark Twain replied, with gentle deliberation: “Well, yes. I should like to see some young man offer the editor a chair.” Killing Off California Lions. Seventeen mountain lions were killed in eleven counties of the state in August, according to claims pre- fented to the state comptroller by the state board of fish and game comtaissioners. San Benito and Sierra counties lead the list, with four scalps each. For each scalp the fish and game commission gives a $20 bounty. —Sacramento correspondence Los Angeles Times. usa YUAN-BEN’S TREMENDOUS UNDERTAKING It is a hard task which confronts the commissioner of education in’ the first cabinet of the Chinese re public.

When he had! gone a few yards the Mon headed him off, and this was re- peated until the mouse stood still. ‘The lion then stood over him, study- ing him with interest, and presently he brought his paw down on the mouse, but so gently that it was not injured in the least’ Then the Hon played with the mouse, now letting him run a few inches and stopping him again. Suddenly the mouse changed “his tactics and instead of running when the lion lifted his paw, sprang straight at the big antmal’s head ‘The Mon, terrified, gave a great leap backward and roared in extreme fright, while the Ifttle mouse made his escape Of the two the lion was the more frightened.

IN SAME SPOT TWICE Forest Rangers Say Lightning Does Repeat Stroke. A Tree Once Struck Is Thereby Rendered More Liable to a Second Bolt—Person Is Safer Standing Under a Tree. Washington.—Lighting does strike twice in the same place, despite the old saying. Rangers in the national forests report that single trees are often struck many times. Indeed, they say that a tree that has been deadened by a former stroke is more liable to a second attack; the dry, dead branches appear to be better conductors. In a report Fred G. Plummer, geographer in the forest service, explodes also the theory that in a thunderstorm a person is safer in the open than under a tree. "It has often been stated," he says, "that the majority of persons killed by lightning sought refuge under trees, but this is not a fact. More than one-half of such deaths occur in the open and less than one-quarter under trees." The tree under which the person stands catches and absorbs the force of the stroke. The greatest danger is from secondary shocks or from flying splinters from the shattered tree. A person standing out in the open, being the most prominent object, attracts and receives the direct stroke of any electric current that may come near him. Mr. Plummer says that lightning strikes more frequently in New Mexico and Arizona than in any other section of the country, though there are more thunderstorms in Florida and Illinois. He reviews some of the curious early and present beliefs and theories about the immunity of some trees from lightning stroke. Late experiments and observations seem to bear out such a theory. While it has not been practically established, it is considered certain that some trees are more liable to stroke than others. Fiber, structure, shape and degree of moisture probably account for the immunity or liability. On this subject he says: "From early times there has been a belief that certain trees more than others are likely to be struck by lightning. The elder Pliny said: 'Lightning never strikes the laurel.' This tree was also called bay, and wreaths of its leaves were worn by ancient rulers, both as a symbol of victory and as a protection from the lightning of the gods. Seneca and Plutarch held similar beliefs, which may be traced down even to modern times; but the theory as now held includes a number of trees, differing in various countries. This belief was so firmly established that such trees as the beech and locust, supposed to be effective in warding off lightning, were planted near dwellings. "To this day there are many who still insist that the beech is never struck, while in parts of the United States the aspen is considered immune from lightning. On the other hand, it was believed that such trees as the oak, particularly cork oak, had a very bad reputation for attracting lightning, and this belief prevails even now. There is a proverb: 'Avoid the oak, flee from the spruce, but seek the beech.' And also: "Beware the oak, it draws the stroke: Avoid the ash, it courts the flash; Creep under the thorn, 'twill save from harm." Mr. Plummer reports that incomplete forest records show that 76,301 trees have been struck in the national forests of the west during the past four years. The records have not been kept for the whole of that period in all the territory affected and under the supervision of the bureau. Lightning causes many of the destructive forest fires. GUARDS FOR McLEAN TOMB. On duty in Rock Creek cemetery at the tomb of Mrs. John R. McLean, who died at Bar Harbor September 9, is an armed guard to insure protection against maudrauders. A rumor that Mr. McLean insisted on having the night guard stationed and locked inside the tomb is denied. however. He is simply hired to keep guard at the tomb entrance. Employes at Rock Creek cemetery recount the fact that Mr. McLean kept guards at the tomb of his father and mother for several years after their death, although there has never been any attempt to despoil or rob any of the tombs in the cemetery for many years. One Possible Explanation. An Australian correspondent sends Electrical Engineering the following: "Not long ago, somewhere in New Zealand, a firm ordered a number of house service alternating-current meters. It happened that the inside of one of these contained a loose piece of cast iron, which caused a fairly loud humming noise when the current was passed through the meter. The firm who had received it returned it to the wholesale house from whence it came, accompanied by a letter, which was dictated and evidently signed in a hurry, as it read thus: 'We return you herewith one of the six meters recently supplied, as this meter makes a dreadful noise and hums considerably. We think this must be due to the lamentations of the iron core.'" ARTIFICIAL HAY DRYING. That it is commercially profitable to dry hay by artificial means, thus eliminating the large waste due to damage by rain in the fields after cutting, is the belief of officials of the department of agriculture. For two or three years past experts of the office of farm management have been conducting experiments in southeastern Missouri with alfalfa hay, putting it through a kiln-drying process. For a time doubt existed as to whether hay could be dried in this manner on a commercially profitable basis. While the work of experimentation has not been concluded, officials are satisfied that kiln-dried hay would save the farmers of the country an enormous amount of money annually. The department has not formally announced the exact location of the government's plant. It is in the alfalfa belt of southeast Missouri and was under water for a considerable period of time during the recent flood. Since that time, however, it has been put into commission once more. It is expected that a formal bulletin dealing with the experiments will be published by the department in the near future. Hay artificially dried is subjected to great heat for a short time and comes through the process retaining a rich green color. The juice is forced out and the larger part of it preserved. ORDNANCE FOR PANAMA. The ordnance department of the army is busily at work in the manufacture of ordnance for the Panama Canal fortifications. This ordnance includes a number of 14-inch guns and guns of smaller calibers, mortars and their carriages. There also is under way a disappearing carriage for the 16-inch gun built by the ordnance department some years ago, which has never been used, it having been kept at the Sandy Hook proving ground since its successful test. The law under which this gun was built specifies that it shall be mounted in the United States. However, a carriage is being built for it, with the expectation that congress will authorize it to be mounted in the Canal Zone. Owing to the delay of congress in providing funds for the canal fortifications, these works will not be ready by the time the canal is opened. It is expected that some of the guns and their carriages will be sent to the Canal Zone and mounted in about six months, but it will be impossible to have all the ordnance ready by the time the canal is ready for traffic. The 16-inch gun carriage will not be finished for about two years. PROFIT IN PAPER MONEY. There are millions of dollars of currency outstanding, lost, destroyed or being preserved as souvenirs which the federal government never will be called upon to redeem, according to a compilation of figures by the register of the treasury. This indicates that the government makes a big profit on its issue of paper money. At the present time $15,232,093 is outstanding of the issue of fractional currency notes during the Civil war, familiarly known as "shinplasters." The total issue of these notes was nearly $369,000,000. It is known that many people are saving samples of them as relics, and it is probable that very few of the outstanding $15,000,000 ever will be presented for redemption. Of the nearly $1,000,000,000 worth of gold certificates issued during the Civil war about $50,000 is still outstanding. There is also outstanding $1,095,000 of the $189,000,000 issue of gold certificates of the series of 1888. EXPENSE ACCOUNT TRIMMED. Uncle Sam announced the other day that he would not reimburse government employees for mosquito nets, whisky, shoes, clothing and medicines incident to traveling. Controller of the Treasury Tracewell rendered a decision to that effect in passing upon the expense account of Claude A. Thompson, special assistant attorney general, who made a trip into Canada for the department of justice last summer. Tobacco is allowed. Mr. Thompson's expense account carried the following items: One pair shoes, $9; field glasses and fly nets, $5; whisky for use on trip, $3; toacco for men, $1. Darwin as Girls Read Him. Miss Elizabeth Marbury, the dramatic agent of New York, said at the Colony club the other day: "It is an error to think that the intellectual girl is dowdy. Look at the girl graduates about you. Those with the highest marks wear usually the nicest frocks. "I said one day to a Bryn Mawr girl: "How beautifully your pannier gown fits, dear. I thought you grave and reverend seniors were above such trifles?" "Oh, no,' said she. 'We all believe here in the survival of the best fitted.'"—New York Tribune. Chance to Show His Skill.

Substitution of Modern Means of Execution for Gallows Is Urged in the District—Present Capital Punishment Is Condemned as Barbarous. Substitution of electrocution for hanging as the means of inflicting capital punishment in the District is to be so strongly urged upon congress next session that legislation to establish the modern and less sensational method will be enacted is expected by people in the District who believe that capital punishment in the District is to be so strongly urged upon congress next session that legislation to establish the modern and less sensational method will be enacted is expected by people in the District who believe that hanging is a barbarism that should be done away with. Recent commutations of sentences of death by the president have served to bring strongly before the public the brutishness of a penalty which the statutes of the District and of many of the states require for certain crimes. The sentiment against hanging is very strong in the District. Despite the fact that a question of capital punishment in the District is replete with peculiar problems with which some of the states have not to contend, there are many people at the capital who would abolish the death penalty altogether. To those people, of course, the elimination of hanging, whether to be replaced by a less harsh punishment like imprisonment for life, or to give way to electrocution, seems a consummation worth the best efforts of the community. An overwhelming majority of those opposed to capital punishment would supplant hanging with electrocution, only a few taking the position of no compromise in abolition of the death penalty. Besides those people, there are thousands who believe that the death penalty should be retained as the inevitable reward of certain crimes, yet realize that the revolting scene of a hanging, no matter how conducted, is distinctively detrimental to the people, painful to their sense of decency and propriety, creative of disorderly imaginings and often incalculably hurtful through the unhealthful notoriety it confers upon both the crime and the criminal whose fault is explained in this manner. Henry E. Davis, former district attorney and one of the leading criminal lawyers of the District, said the other day that he thought electrocution ought by all means to be substituted for hanging. "Electrocution would be less sensational and more humane," Mr. Davis stated. A. Leftwich Sinclair, a prominent attorney and chairman of the law and legislation committee of the chamber of commerce, stated he is opposed to hanging, which he characterized as barbarous. "I am in favor of substituting electrocution for hanging." Mr. Sinclair said. "It is less revolting, it is more humane and it would be a greater deterrent to crime." Many other attorneys of the District have expressed similar opinions. HOUSE ENTIRELY TOO SMALL Found There Is Not Desk Room for the Forty-Two New Members. Superintendent Elliott Woods of the United States Capitol building, after an examination of the floor of the house of representatives, has found it practically impossible to make desk room for the forty-two new members to be added to the house by the approaching general elections. It is probable some new members will occupy extra chairs or stools. Provision has been made for the rearrangement of the house chamber, but Mr. Woods will be unable to make the permanent changes before the December session. The new congress will come into office on March 4, with the prospect of an extra session next summer. If no extra session is held the house chamber will be rebuilt before the fall session. Peruvian President Is English. Senor Guillermo Billinghurst, ex mayor of Lima, just elected president of Peru, was born of English parents, who settled in Peru over six tity years ago. He is native of Arica, and received his education in Valparaiso and Buenos Ayres. In 1868, when his family was practically ruined by the earthquake, he went to Iquique and devoted himself with much success to scientific research work. His political debate dates back to 1874, when he was elected secretary of Iquique province. In that year he published his book on "Municipal Legislation in Peru," which has become the standard book on the subject in that country. Too Late The host was nervous and inexperienced, and he rose hurriedly at the conclusion of the song. "Ladies and—er, gentlemen," he began, "before Mr. M. started to—er—sing, he asked me to apologize for his—er—voice, but I omitted to do so—er—so—l—er—apologize now." —London Opinion. THAT STATUE FOR GEN. LEE No Other Southern General Has Received Statuary Recognition at the Nation's Capital. Southern congressmen are kept at their wits' end explaining to their constituents the preponderance of monuments to Union soldiers in Washington. Except for the statue of Robert E. Lee, placed in Statuary hall by the state of Virginia, no southern general has received statuary recognition in Washington. The other day Congressman W. S. Howard of Atlanta, Ga., was taking a resident of that city to the Capitol in the street car. As the car rounded the curve at the Peace monument near the foot of the Capitol Representative Howard pointed out to his friend the great statue to Gen. U. S. Grant being erected in the Botanic Gardens. His friend looked at the monument, which covers a large ground space, and observed: "They ought to put up a statue to General Lee near by." "Well, Lee has a statue here and it covers more ground space than any other statue to a human being in the whole world," replied Representative Howard. "I would like to see it. Where is it?" exclaimed his friend, excitedly. "Oh, it's over here at 5th and F streets," replied Mr. Howard, dryly. "They call it the pension office." WHITE HOUSE TREE PASSES Silver Maple, 75 Years Old, Is Removed to Save Others on Lawn. Old age and decay have spelled the passage of one of the stateliest and most dignified trees on the White House grounds. To the left of the Pennsylvania avenue entrance to the White House and not far from the executive offices has stood for the last 75 years a fine old silver maple tree. As far as could be learned it had no distinguished pedigree, like some of the trees on the grounds that have been planted by presidents, but has stood through many presidential administrations as a distinct ornament to the grounds. Lately it became so feeble that the superintendent of the grounds feared it would fall over, and ordered it cut down. Right next to it is a young oak tree which was planted by President McKinley and nearby are some Japanese trees. All of these were in daily danger from the old maple, so it had to go. A younger tree may be planted in its place and President Taft may be invited, if he cares to do so, to preside at the planting. SNEEZE BREAKS A RIB Washington Man After Ordinary Sneeze Has to Call Physician to Stop the Pain. Joseph E. Flynn, assistant station master at Union station, is suffering from a broken rib caused by a sneeze. While on duty a few nights ago Mr. Flynn felt an inclination to sneeze, and, as he had done many times before, gave way to it, promptly sneezing. There followed at once a pain in his side. The pain grew worse, so much so that an injection of morphine was necessary to ease it. Physicians examined Flynn and found a broken rib. Flynn is thirty-nine years old, stands about 6 feet 2, and tips the scales at 200. From his couch in a hospital he said he had sneezed all of his life, but never had any bad results from it until the rib broke. "Well," said he to his doctor, "I am glad I haven't hay fever." Money for Wedding Presents. Money for Wedding Presents. The wedding present of money has received the stamp of approval and hereafter it will be perfectly proper for any one desiring to get rid of the burden of buying a wedding present to send a check, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer. A few years ago no one would have thought of giving a sum of money to a bride, but its convenience and practicability was at once manifest and it was permitted when coming from a near relative. But it was not until a couple of years ago that it received the necessary hallmark of royal approval to make it generally acceptable to society. The approval came from no less a person than Queen Alexandra, who sent a friend a check for $100. Her majesty probably did it because she was in deep mourning and could not do any personal shopping, and so, to avoid sending a gift that might be duplicated, she forwarded a check. Since then brides and bridegrooms have had reason to rejoice, and at every big wedding nowadays the item "check" figures frequently in lists of wedding presents. None Too Honest. Chauncey Depew was discussing in Washington the methods of a certain corporation. "Such methods," said Senator Depew, "may not be considered dishonest by some people, but they remind me of the reply of a debutante ot 1900. "Does your flance know your age?" a girl friend rather cruelly asked this debutante, as they sat on the beach mending their bathing suits. "‘Well,—partly.’ was the reply." Indispensable Mrs. Glgthorn—Do you mean to say you smoke the nasty little things in your own house? Mrs. Leeder—Only when we are doing amateur theatricals.

WEEK AFTER ELECTION WEEK AFTER ELECTION BODY WAS GIVEN RIGHT TO ACT AT CONVENTION HELD IN CHICAGO. Western Newspaper Union News Service. New York.—Chairman Hilles of the Republican National Committee on October 31st announced that he had called a meeting of the national committee for November 12th in Chicago to select a successor to the late James S. Sherman as the Republican candidate for vice president. Mr. Hilles made the following statement: "The national convention which met in Chicago in Pune delegated to the national committee power to fill vacancies on the national ticket. The death of Mr. Sherman, candidate for vice president at the coming election, makes it incumbent upon the national committee to nominate a candidate in his place. "The nomination cannot possibly be made prior to the election next Tuesday. Such a nomination can properly be made only after due and reasonable notice to all the members of the committee. Such notice cannot be given in less than six days. It is therefore manifestly impossible to hold such a meeting prior to the election. "Meantime no difficulty or inconelection next Tuesday because the votes to be cast then are for electors, and not for candidates for either President or vice president, and the death of Mr. Sherman therefore does not affect the validity of the election of senators. "I have called a meeting of the national committee to meet upon the 12th day of November in the city of Chicago, at the Auditorium, at 12 o'clock noon, to select a successor to the late James S. Sherman as candidate of the Republican party for vice president of the United States." Hadley May Be Taft's Running Mate. Denver.—Governor Herbert S. Hadley of Missouri, without doubt will be the running mate of President William H. Taft on the Republican ticket as a result of the death of Vice President Sherman, candidate for re-election, in the opinion of Jesse F. McDonald, chairman of the Colorado State Republican central committee. The death of Sherman is the first instance of a vice president dying on the eve of election, and results in peculiar complications. Secretary Knox becomes vice president and may become President if there be no election and the Congress names a President. The name of Governor Hadley of Missouri has been mentioned for the place, but John Wanamaker is considered as a likely choice. Washington, D. C.—News of Vice President Sherman's death, though it had been expected, was received with profound sorrow in official Washington. Ex-President Speaks in New York.

COBBEY For District Judge On Progressive Ticket His strength is increasing every hour Hundreds of his old bank clients are flocking to his office and meeting him on the street, all swearing strong al- legiance and that they are working for him every minute. They Know That He Is HONEST ABLE FEARLESS Join the throng. Push the "People's Judge" upon the district bench. If you elect him you will have a judge that has not given out a single political promise, either to a corporation or to an individual. He will have no debts to pay and will assume office under a condition that will enable him to render decision without fear or favor. He believes in the recall (judges included). WORK FOR HIM VOTE FOR HIM TELL ALL YOUR FRIENDS ABOUT HIM. CANDIDATE FOR STATE TREASURER ON THE PROGRESSIVE TICKET W. H. Mr. J. S. Temple, candidate on the Progressive ticket for State Treasurer, was born in Galena, Ill., and has lived in Denver for thirty years. For nearly twenty-seven years of that time he was connected with the Western Newspaper Union, for over twenty years as local manager. He has been president of the State Editorial Association and member of the Executive Committee of National Association. He has been president of the Denver Chamber of Commerce and of the Associated Charities. He was for many years on the State Board of Child and Animal Protection, and has been on the Board of Management of the Denver Convention League, the Festival of Mountain and Plain Association, the League for Honest Elections, and the Y. M. C. A., both State and local, and many other civic, religious and charitable organizations. He was a member of the Arbitration Committee that settled the most serious strike which ever threatened the prosperity of Denver and received a formal vote of thanks from the Typographical Union for his services on that occasion. He has never before been a candidate for public office. --- HENRY V. JOHNSON Democratic Nominee for District Judge. Mr. Johnson was United States attorney from 1893 to 1897; was elected mayor in 1899 for two years. He got the Lacombe plant built, and under the contract the city would have owned the plant in ten years, but Mayor Speer succeeded in having the contract cancelled in 1906. Under that contract the electric light in homes was cut from 18 cents per kilowat to 9 cents, and lights on the streets were cut from $105 per year to $75. The cable car system was changed to electric, which cost $105,000 cash. Children between 6 and 12 years, half fare, and universal transfers were secured. Judge Johnson has a host of friends among our people, as he has always been a staunch friend of them. There are many who, in appreciation of his worth as a man, "not as a Democrat," are rallying to his support. If you vote any other ticket and wish to vote for him, make an X opposite his name and draw a line through the name of one candidate for district judge on the ticket you vote. Some of the things for which he stands: A public officer is a trustee and servant of all the people. It is the duty of the court to justly administer the law—not to make law. The rights of the people are clearly defined and must be upheld. (Advertisement.) Mr. James B. Pearce is perhaps one of the best known men in Colorado and that he is generally liked and that his services to his state is appreciated, is best attested from the fact that he has been twice elected to the office of secretary of state. When the primary law became operative, he announced again as a candidate to succeed himself. This afforded a fair test in an unrestricted contest, participated in by some of the most prominent Democrats in this state. As a result, at the Democratic Assembly held in Pueblo, Mr. Pearce received a substantial majority over all aspirants for the office of secretary of state. Again at the primary elections, September 10th, Mr. Pearce received 13,000 plurality over his nearest competitor. The people of this state realize what is wanted in the office of the secretary of state is a straightforward business administration of the people's J. B. H. business. A straight business administration is what James B. Pearce has given and it is upon the record made that he appeals, to the voters of this state for an opportunity to complete the reforms already inaugurated in the office. To the people, the office of secretary of state is the most important office in the state within their gift. It is through this office nine-tenths of the people transact their business with the state. Is it not a pretty good record for any public official who, having filled an important office for four years, when his avowed enemies can find no irregular official conduct upon which to assail him, but must resort to basest slander to besmirch and besmear him. American manhood and womanhood is too lofty, too courageous to believe such dastardly and infamous slanders as those now being injected into this campaign, when once they are known to be utterly groundless. This article is especially addressed to the industrious, sober and right-thinking colored voters, and it is to these that Mr. Pearce appeals as American citizens and expects their support, just as from other citizens who have benefited directly and indirectly because of his faithful service as secretary of state. JAMES B. PEARCE Girl to Work With Lepers. Centralilla, Wash.—Miss Frances F. Gardner, a wealthy girl, has announced her intention to devote the rest of her life to missionary work. She expresses willingness to take up the work with the lepers of Culion island, Philippines, or the island of Molokai, in the Hawaiian group, when her course is completed at the divinity school in Portland, where she will be prepared for her work. Miss Gardner's announcement astonished her friends, especially as it was understood that she was engaged to be married. PHONE MAIN 6123—Day or Night RESIDENCE PHONE YORK 1669.
