ADAIR WILSON NOMINATED
FOR SUPREME COURT JUSTICE

Denver. Sept. s.-The Democratic
state judicial convention in the city
yesterday nominated Judge Adair Will
son, formerly of La Plata. now of Den
yer. for the Supreme Court bench to
succeed Justice John Campbell, whose
term expires the coming year. Ills
principal opponent was John l. Null
Inns Of the Denver District Court The
contest was close and spirited.
The following platform was adopted:
THE Democracy OF Colorado, in con-
vention assembled. reatfirms its allie
glance to the principles enunclated by
the last national Democratic conven-
ton, held in Kansas City.
THE Democratic party is a party OF
law and order. 1t believes in the su-
premacy of the law. and in It's strict
and impartial enforcement. that the
rights of all be equally respected and
that justice be melted out alike to all
offenders, whether they be individuals
or corporations. the friendless poor
man or the financial magnate. There
should be no compromise with lawless-
ness, come from what source 1t may.
Upon this depends the good order and
well being OF society. the safety Of our
homes, the security Of person and prop
erty. business prosperity and the full
enjoyment by the people Of the privi-
leges guarant ed by federal and state
constitutions.
Entertaining these views. we hold
that the judiciary is the most import
ant of all departments Of the govern
ment. and that the Office Of supreme
Judge is the highest within the gift OF
the people of the state.
I'VE deplore, the existence in sew
eral counties of the state. Of differences
between employees and employers,
bringing about state Of AFFAIRS which
is demoralizing to business and de-
structive of progress and prosperity.
We urge upon all good citizens to
counsel. as we'll as practice, modera-
ton. and do nothing to add fuel to the
flames Of excitement. Occasions such
