penver's "Paddsd" vots.

Denver. Dec 4.-The Republican this
morning says: Startling evidence has
already been secured by the Republi'
can organization to make request from
the proper court for q complete and in
dependent re-canyass and count OF the
Denver vote, which would reveal a
state OF affairs that would surprise the
callous. The work has been under
taken In most systematic manner and
thanks to Judge Lindsey Of the County
Court and the Supreme Court bench,
the evidence will be complete and
there will be no opportunity of getting
rid of the tell-tale evidence in the bal,
lot boxes and the books.
This canvass, made by reputable
citizens betrays a sad condition. In the
eighteen precincts that had been can
vassed UP to last evening 1.516 names
were down on the books as having
voted that could not be traced by the
canvassers The persons in charge
of the, buildings these people were reg
istered from, stated. and when desired
made affidavit. that the persons named
did not live there now and were not
there on election day. 1t is case of
a gigantic pad" that will be better re-
vealed when the next grand jury under
the new district attorney gets hold of
the basic evidence for all the frauds
that have. been committed in Denver,

NEEDS OF NAVY
SECRETARY moRToN's REPORT

Naval Estimates Cut Down, Although
. Full Amount Was Needed.-Reeord
! IA1ish.s. -
= Washington, DEC. 5-The annual re-
port OF Secretary Of the Navy Morton,
made public to-day is in part as fol
lows: -
"The naval estimates for the next
fiscal year are large. the largest ever
submitted, Notwithstanding the fact
that they have been cut down from
those sent In by the bureaus more than
SIT 100000. We have asked for less
than the money actually required to
continue the naval program as laid
down by the general board. of which
Admiral Dewey is the head. notwith.
standing all who have studied the
question carefully agree that this pro-
gramms should be carried out.
THE past year was an important one
In the history OF our naval construc-
ton. Never before were SO many war
ships launched by this or any other ma
tion in one year. Vessel for vessel and
type for type believe our new ships
will compare favorably with those of
any navy afoat, and every American
should be proud of the progress and
character of work now being accom-
plished not only in construction. but
in all branches of the service.
New ships necessarily require more
officers, more marines and more en-
listed men. and the appropriations are
quite likely to increase steadily for
some years to come. The more ships
we have the greater our fixed charges
WIFI be and the greater our facilities
necessarily must be In the way Of
yards and docks and the ability to
make repairs and take proper care of
the feet. =
Attention is earnestly invited to the
recommendations made to the chief OF
the Bureau of Navigation respecting
the need for more officers and men in
order to carry on the work of the navy.

vision is made to man, care for and

HAPPY CHILDHOOD.
Right Food Makes Happy Children
Because They are Healthy.


Sometimes milk does not agree with
children or adults. The same thing Is
true of other articles Of food. What
agrees with one sometimes does not
agree with others.
But food can be so prepared that It
will agree with the weakest stomach.
AS an illustration-anyone, no matter
how weak the stomach. can eat, relish
and digest nice hot cup OF Postum
coffee with spoonful or two Oh
Grape Nuts poured in. and such a COM
bination contains nourishment to car
ry one a number of hours. for almost
every particle of it will be digested
and taken up by the system. and be
made use of.
A lady writes from the land Of the
Magnolia and the mocking bird way
down in Alabama and says: Il was
led to drink Postum because coffee
gave me sour stomach and made me
nervous. Again Postum was recon-
mended by two well known physicians
for my children, and | feel especially
grateful for the benefit derived.
MIX does not agree with either
child, SO to the eldest. aged four and
one-half years, give Postum with
plenty of sweet cream. 1t agrees with
her splendidly. regulating her bowels
perfectly although she is Of consd-
pated habit.
For the youngest, aged two and
one-half years. l use one-half Postum
and one-half SKINNED milk. l have
not given any medicine since the
children began using Postum. and
they enjoy every drop of it.
"A neighbor If mine is giving Pos
tum to her baby lately weaned. with
splendid results. The little fellow Is
thriving famously" Name given by
Fpstum Co, Battle Creek, Mich.
Postum agrees perfectly with CHILD
rem and supplies adults with the hot
invigorating beverage in place of cof-
fee. Literally thousands of Americans
have been helped out of stomach and
nervous diseases by leaving off cof-
fee and using Postum Food Coffee.
