The Delta independent., 1906-06-08

Hank" Hammond is one of the best
squealers you ever heard. When he
was reposing within the confines of the
jail last Wednesday his cries were
heard by workmen at the brickyard.
And its a safe bet that hereafter the
dinner bucket will be of less temptation
to Hank than it has been in times gone
past. "Let me out! Let me out! He's
gone! He's gone!" And that's about
all Hank could say while Assessor
Cockreham vainly endeavored to unlock
the door that placed Hank in the felon's
cell. Oh, it was certainly rich.
Conductor Vanderburg is still blush

lady came tripping down the steps and
exclaimed, 80, how kind of you to meet
me-" and planted kiss square on his
averted cheek. Some of her friends
called out, "Why, that's the conduct

was considerable confusion around the

Mr.. Rawalt assumes that we are find

The fact is we have more downright
respect for Mr.. Roosevelt than the
editor of the Paonia Newspaper ever
dreamed Of entertaining on behalf of
anybody outside the pale of his own
family. Never has occasion arisen
when it occurred to us that President
Roosevelt had done nought but what
was right, equitable and judicious.
However no man IS perfect. All of US
make error. In regard to the treatment
of the rate bill Mr.. Roosevelt was leav-
ing no stone unturned to get it passed
by both houses and into law. In this
attempt he ''flirted with the enemy" as
it were and, it seems to US, got caught.
Because he did and because he was
caught, causes no. one whit less regard
for him in our estimation, but did not

Had there not been a contest be-
tween the machine and the indepen-
dent element OF the Democratic
party al the primary yesterday, II is
doubtful II there would have been
any votes at all cast in some pre-
clncts. As Il was less than so per
cent OF the party registration partIc-
lpated In the election, and aside
from the city judges race. not more
than $50 votes were cast.
The result is triumph for the
machine. but some OF the conditions
surrounding the result when analyz-
ed. look ominous for rhe party IL
the municipal election. Ever since
Judge e. II. Puryear was appointed
10 the bench TO succeed the late
Judge Sanders against the protest OF
the city hall ring. that element has
been busy furthering the candidacy
OF ID. A. Cross, and his election was
freely predicted yesterday. Judge
Puryear did not even know the cleo
ton officers had been chosen until
late last Saturday night, when some
body dipped on the fact TO him.
lie met with a solid organization
in every precinct. and many. who ia
vored him for the Office, stayed away
from the poles, because they reallz-
ed he would be beaten. ana they did
not wish to bind themselves In any
way TO the support OF the Democratic
ticket.
How far this sort OF disaffection
permeates the party following. II is.
OF course impossible to determine.
but along broadway the expression
OF this feeling was heard frequently.
Some men consider themselves
bound TO support a ticket. when they
participate in a primary and declin-
ed to thus be held.
The small vote for candidates for
councllmen. aldermen and school
trustees Is accepted as an expression
Of satisfaction With the personnel OF
the present boards. and II Is believed
the present members VIII be re-
turned.
There seems TO be no doubt that
the Republicans will place a candi-
date for city Judge in the field. and
II Is predicted that the whole ticket
will be elected.
Judge Puryear had no complaint
to make this morning. lie said he
had tried to do his duty on the
bench and left It to the people to
decide.
d. A. Cross. OF course. was elated
but he said he had expected such a
result He was congratulated by his
friends.
w. A. Perry. chairman of the
committee said:
IL expected about LOO votes out
The result seems to be satisfactory
In as much as the Democrats were
given a chance to express their wish
es and everything passed of without
discord."
