A SMALL POLITICAL TRICK.

Mrs. Minerva c. Welch was Re
publican.
She was in the employ of the Re-
publican state committee.
She lost her job.
She Immediately turned Democrat.
She was also president of the Colo
RADIO Equal Suffrage Association.
When she turned Den ocrat she re-
solved to take the equal suffrage as
sociation with her.
In order to do this It was necessary
to turn a neat political trick.
She issued call for a meeting of
the executive committee, without spe-
cifying in the call what the business
before the meeting would be.
A "side tip" was given to the Demo
cratic members of the committee.
When the meeting was held there
we're fourteen Democrats present and
four Republicans.
A motion was made that the asso-
citation endorse those champions of
equH sLffrage," Alva Adams and Elias
NJ. Ammons and John F. Shafroth.
An outside member of the associa-
tion, Mrs. Wright, was admitted to the
meeting, in order to speak for the mo-
ton. Other members of the associa-
ton, who were Republicans, were ey-
cluded from the meeting, because they
were mot for mamma" The motion
was carried and the result was sent
far and wide, as an endorsement Of
the Democratic ticket by the associa-
ton.
In order to send out this circular,
letterheads were printed, with the
names of all the officers. some of
whom were Republicans. and not at
all in sympathy with the action. who
were thereby falsely represented, and
the impression was sought to be given
that the entire association endorsed
the Democratic ticket
The charter of the equal suffrage as
sociation provides that it shall be en-
tirely non-partisan. The charter has
been violated by sending out this cir

OPEN LETTER No. Il.

To the Hon. Alva Adams-Dear Sir:
You have had much to say about what
you regard as the usurpation of au-
thority by the military forces of the
state in Teller county.
You seem to imbibe much satisfac.
ton from a constant reiteration of the
phrase:
"The military must be subseryient
to the civil power"
And then you act in such manner
as to give your hearers the impress
sion that something dreadful hap
pened to this wise provision of the
constitution during the recent conflict
with Western federation lawlessness
in Colorado.
viii you not please give the pub
lie the benefit of your judgment upon
the following question:
Does not the law that makes the
military subordinate to the civil power
imply in itself that there must be n
civil power capable. effective and will
ing to act?
In other words, in the event that
the civil powers of county got into
the hands of insurrectionists or their
synpathizers. would you then contend
that the military sent to suppress the
insurrection should be held subordi-
nate to the civil power in such
county?

The government asked the jury not

the civil offices and the juries and
paralyzed the hand of justice.
Would you, Mr.. Adams, turn the
military forces of the state over to
the insurrectionists if the insurrec.
tionists happened to be the civil au-
thorities?
Or, would you, under such condi-
tions, conclude that the governor

civil power, and, therefore, possessed
the right to use the militia to subdue
the insurrection.
