A BIG TIME ON
JUNE FIFTEENTH
Hawaii viii JOyousIy CeIe brate Her
Admission to the
Union Then.

The fifteenth of June is to be so inn
partant day TO Hawaii that it must
unquestionably be celebrated in some
fitting way; but the form of the cele-
bration should be carefully arranged
so as TO make the day altogether diff
ferent from the other holidays which
will come at about the same time every
year. June II is day by itself. So is
the Fourth. So is August y. Each
has its appropriate recognition. and so
should the Territorial Day It CORES
ponds in a measure with Dominion
Day in Canada, and the manner of
keeping the day should accord with its
meaning and serve to remind us afresh
every year of our position as a terri
tory and of the advantages to us from
the fact, and to recall the brave fight
our representatives made in Washing
ton for liberal scheme of government
in Hawaii, and one which would CON
serve and forward our prosperity.
This year the eleventh of June and
the fifteenth will come during the same
week, and though this will not always
happen, the two will come close to-
gether The meaning of the two is in
no respect analogous, and they could
not possibly be combined Kameha
meha Day is jollification, which is en-
tlrely suitable; Territorial Day should
be joyous too, but in a different wav
1t should be commemorated in some
manner which will bring out and
strengthen its meaning. Let us not
entirely lose what makes the day mem
oraole, as the purport of the Fourth
mas been lost sight of in the United
states so that not one child in ter
whom you find setting off firecrackers
in the streets can tell you what If is
all about

FAILURE.

John II. Shumate is q candid ate for
District Judge: he resided for sever al
years at Glenwood Springs where as a
lawyer he proved to be failure. He
schemed and plotted for denomination
of county Judge and made the race for
that position against John L. Noonan,
but the people of Garfield county
knowing his uniitness for judicial
position defeated him. In that effort
he was failure.
He then imagined he was q statesman
and secured the election as Represen-
tative of Garfield county to the 11th
General Assembly, and drew his per
diem for one term. Whether by rea-
son of incompetency or some other
cause. Garfield county was not bene-
fitted by any effort on his part, but he
did succeed in giving himself some no.
toriety by being black-listed by the Ia
Dor organizations in the state for in
competency and failure as statesman.
The democrats of Garfield believing
that he might possibly be capable of
holding the office of District Attorney
had him nominated and elected in 1891:
his efforts to secure convictions has
been criticised and condemned by his
friends as prosecutions.
Realizing that as district attorney
he was a failure. he began to scheme
and plan for the office of District
Judge, knowing that he could not sup
plant Judge Rucker in the esteem of
the people by fair means, he moved
from Glenwood Springs to Aspen and
entered into a conspiracy with certain
individuals (who had either failed to
get an unjust judgment or had been
tried for larceny, to secure the demo-
cratic nomination.
BY protesting friendship and 10y atty
to Judge Rucker he advised the Judi
ciary Committee to elect the delegates
that he himself had selected, then caus-
ed the report to be circulated that
Judge Rucker was responsible for the
way the delegates had been elected.
His Co-conspirator then announced
to the public that they wanted demo-
crat iudge-one who would, if elected,
would decide as the democratic party
directed. After much sham pretense
of reluctance John T. Shumate an
nounced himself the candid ate, making
it clearer than ever to those who
thought they knew him, that as a man
of honor and integrity, of loyalty and
fidelity, he was all that could be rep
resented by the word failure.
This sketch is not over drawn. 1t is
written to warn the voters to be care
full with their ballots. We do not
want for Judge of the Ninth District of
Colorado A FAILURE.
The Marble times and Crystal silver lance., 1900-10-26

The frequency with which Judge T.
A. Rucker is called to other districts
to try difficult cases and decide knotty
law problems is evidence of the high
esteem in which he is held by both bar
and bench. His reputation as fair
and impartial judge is second to none
in the state. His advice is sought by
attorneys and jurists from all parts of
the state and his opinions are respect
ed and advise followed by all who
know him. This district is fortunate
in having a man of his ability upon
the bench. The reputation he has ac-
quired during the II years he has pre-
sided in this district is a guarantee
of his reelection. The people of this
district cannot afford to replace d

SUCCESS.

Thomas A. Rucker, candidate for
District Judge, is personally known to
almost every citizen of the Ninth Judi
cial District, having served the people
for so long a time. His eminent fit
ness and ability to deal with the com
plicated questions which come up in
the trial OF cases in the district court
is recognized by every one. He is
genial and kind to every one: treats
the rich and poor alike. He is always
ready and willing to accommodate the
public. On account of his uniform
courteous treatment the jurors, the
witnesses and officers of the court all
testify to his kindness and they all
feel under obligations to him for fav-
ors extended to them in the conduct of
the business of the court.
His decisions of questions of law are
respected and quoted as authority in
all parts of the state: no litigant has
ever questioned his honesty and integ-
rlty except in cases. perhaps. where
they have attempted to cheat and de-
fraud some unfortunate creditor. He
has stood fearlessly on the side of
equity and justice for the poor when
but for him they would have had to
give up all they possessed to the Shy
locks scheming by fraud for their
destruction. He has been true and
loyal to his friends. They place i'm
plicit confidence in him and know that
he can be trusted and will not betray
them.
In his association with the members
of the bar he is courteous and digni-
fed, while the young and inexperienc-
ed lawyer always receives from Judge
Rucker that considerate help so en-
couraging to the beginner in practice.
Gentle and kind to everybody, loyal
to friendship, honest and faithful in
the discharge of his official duties, it is
no wonder that he has been successful
in the past.
We know the people confide in him
and by their votes on the sixth day of
November next they will make his race
for reelection success.

Outrageous Attempt of Democratic Board of
County Commissioners to DsfranchiSe
Legal Voters.
Legal Voters.

| the disfranchisement of legally quail
| fed electors throughout the district
comprising Placita. Redstone and Coal
Basin. Their action was taken upon
the theory that they could thus elimin-
ate a possible Republican majority
| from these sections of Pitkin county.
| American citizens or those who have
declared their intention to become such
| are, without reference to their place of
residence. entitled to the full exercise
of the elective franchise, and it is
hoped that no device of the Democratic
| Board of County Commissioners of
Pitl1in county will be able to prevent
the expression of the will of some 400
or 500 of the citizens of the county at
the polls on the 9Th of November.
No patriotic citizen would seek in
anyway to influence these voters for
any political party, but the right to a
full and fair expression of the opinion
of these voters ought not and cannot
be denied.
Every qualified voter in the district
mentioned should make it a point to
be registered and to vote against
party which, through its officers, has
sought to disfranchise a whole com
munity and arrogate to the narrow
| section OF the county the right TO name
it's officers, disregarding the enterprise,
development and monetary investments
which are being made in our county.
The Democratic party has sought to
prejudice the people of this state on
account of the fact that a considerable
number of foreign-born voters reside
in this district. More than 125 native
born citizens, in addition to large
number of naturalized citizens of the
United States, have been disfranchised
or their disfranchisement has been at
tempted by the action of the Demo-
cratic Board of County Commissioners
of Pitkin county.
| The citizens, both native and natur-
allied, are engaged in building up one
of the greatest industries in the county
in which vast sums of money have been
and will be expended, and will add
very largely to the taxable property of
the county and materially assist in the
payment of the county's taxes and in
debtedness. Such investors and their
employees, being taxpayers, are en-
titled to representation, and the people
of this county will see to it that their
votes are cast and counted lawfully on
the 9th day of November next.
The Marble times and Crystal silver lance., 1900-10-26

The most hagrant attempt to prevent
the exercise of the right of franchise
ever made in the state of Colorado
was brought about by the action of the
Board of County Commissioners of
Pitkin county through their refusal TO
act in the matter OF organizing election
precincts, for the purpose of allowing
properly qualified electors to cast their
ballots in the coming state and nation
al election.
The statutes of the state plainly pro-
vide that the County Commissioners
shall, on petition of the electors of a
precinct, organize new precincts for
the convenience of voters, and that in
no case shall there be more than $50
voters in one election precinct.
1t is a we'll known fact that there are
at least 400 qualified electors in the
precinct formerly known as Hot
Springs Precinct No. p J, and the
Commissioners of Pitkin county for
more than two months past have been
requested personally and by petition
to organize new precincts at Plaeita,
Redstone and Coal Basin in order tn at
the electors in these districts might
have an opportunity to exercise their
lfdlCulSe.
The regular monthly meeting of the
Board of County Commissioners of
Pitkjn county was called for the first
Monday in October and at that time
petitions were filed and presented for
the organization of new precincts at
Redstone, Placita and Coal Basin.
The majority of the Board being
Democratic and consisting of Vincent
Johnson and Benedict Bourg, by pre-
arrangement and under the advise of
Gov. Thomas, r. M. Patterson and T.
y. O'Donnell, surreptitiously left the
county for parts unknown and failed
to be present either at the regula ar
meeting or any subsequent meeting
called by the Chairman of the Board
until the 30 day limit had expired,
within which they were allowed to
create new precincts under the law.
Both of the men above mentioned re-
fused to respond to kilograms or notice
of any sort, their declared intention
being to prevent as far as possible the
registration or the casting of any votes
by the residents of Placita, Redstone
or Coal Basin. These men carried out
the instructions of their superiors and
have thus endeavored to encompass

'tHonest Jim" Orman has been sued

fuses to pay. He pleads the baby act
and attempts to shift the responsibility

he succeed in escaping the payment of
the bill, however, he will hardly turn
the whole of the proceeds over to Mr.
Crook. Undoubtedly at least one-h alf
of the amount will go into his capaci-
GUS pocket to keep company with a
good many other dollars belonging to

Gov. Thomas has openly boasted
papers that the citizens of Redstone,
Placita and Coal Basin would not be
allowed to register or cast their votes
at the coming election. Every effort
is being used to prevent their registra-
tion and to disfranchise every man in
Pitkin county who declines to support
the Democratic ticket. The men who
are interfering with registration in
Precinct No. 21-Hot Springs-include
some of the rottenest politicians that
ever disgraced a Populist or Demo-
cratic administration in this state.
The agent sent by Gov. Thomas and
Tom O'Donnell to Hot Springs to pre-
vent registration was the odorous and
naseaus w. r. Callicotte, who will be
remembered as the Fish and Game
Warden under Gov. w ate, who found
it necessary, having one horse at the
fish hatchery, to charge the state with
about six tons of alfalfa per week, and
the horse had less flesh at the end of
the week than he had at the beginning.
1t is said that Callicotte is the original
discoverer and patentee of the process
by which alfalfa can be converted into
food for food fish. His efforts to pre-
vent registration were partially sue
cessful at the last meeting of the regis
tering board, but we are assured that
his former action will not again be
countenanced by the citizens of that
precinct, who will insist that they be
registered, that their votes be cast and
counted as cast on election day.
