humor running through him that is
/ irrestible.
In presenting Hon. Sprlgg Shackle-
/ ford, Toastmaster Wheeler made a
most pleasing reference TO him. The
response of the Hon. Mr.. Shackleford
was one of the responsive gems of the
evening. His toast was Before and
] After" but not confining himself to
| those conditions. he gave a most
touching and beautiful sentiment in
reference to the exalted position TO
which the distinguished guest of hon
or was about to assume. He then re-
| ferred to his coming assumption of the
duties of presiding judge of this ju-
dicfal district and his peroration up
on this and other matters upon which
he had spoken, was highly appreclat-
ed by all.
1t had been assigned to Hon.
Straud NJ. Logan. perhaps one of the
closest frieds of Judge CasweH. to
respond to the toast "Our Guest OF
/ Honor" Most creditably indeed did
he perform this service. II was not
maudulin sentiment expressed by Mr..
/ Logan but fair and square praise and
a Judgment of the worth of his friend
that had come through the years of
! association with him in their pro-
| fession and in the social ties that he
came incident to their friendship. 1t
was well timed. not over charged, but
well measured estimate of the many
! lovable qualities of the guest of honor
Mr.. Logan well fulfilled the demands
Of the toast and upon being seated
was overwhelmed by applause from
the entire assembly.
Toastmaster Wheeler then raped
| all the guests to their feet to hear the
concluding response of Judge Caswell.
! II would be impossible to even nearly
well represent the language and ten
wer words of Judge Caswell. in bid
ding farewell to his friends and fell
| low attorneys at the bar of Mesa
county and the other counties of the
Seventh judicial district. He most
| feelingly referred to his treatment by
all in his career in this city and he
repeatedly stated that he wanted II
distinctly understood that he was not
abandoning his citizenship in Mesa
| Courty nor never would. 1t was a
| splendid response most feeling and
in the delivery of it he was visibly af-
| fected. He sat down amidst regu-
lar storm of applause and was sur
rounded at once by all the guests in
words of congratulation.

The politicians who ride on passes
and who want to keep them, are try
ing to brighten the tax payers with a
story about an appropriation of 500,
900 which will be necessary for trav-
cling expences of public officials in
case of the suppression of the pass
evil. The story is great fake.
The state pays the travelling expenses
of most of the officers now, although
the officers ride on passes, This is
one of the perquisites of the present
system. The enactment of an
anti-pass law wont cost the state any
thing, but it will cost the officers
what they term their velvet.

Notwithstanding the "Square
Deal" pledges made by Republican
candidates on the state tickets, not
one of them has sent his railroad
pass back, All are accepting the
"courtesies" of the railroad compan-
les for their campaign work. How
are these candidates going to re-
ciporocate? They surely don't ex-
pect to use passes and not pay for
them in some way. We all know
how severe these candidates will be
on the railroads if they get elected.

The special questions prepared by
B. p. Waggoner in the trial of the
libel suit against the Topeka State
Journal are in great demand. In
this case Attorney Coleman, Sc
rotary of State Burrow rnd Superin
tendent Dayhoff, claimed to be
damaged by the publican of the facts
in the disreputable Comanche coun
ty bond deal, but the jury said
there was no libel, and the jury's
answer to Mr.. Waggoner's special
questions makes Interesting reading.
The Democratic state comittec
already has printed three big editions
of the queitions for distribution.
The Republican politicians are
not educating" the voters this year
regarding the new election law.
The amendment enacted in 1905
removed the cause of the voters fear
about marking in the circle. Under
the old law, if voter marked in the
circle of ticket, and then marked
in the square opposite candidates
name on another ticket, his vote
was thrown out. Under the new
law the mark in the circle simply
indicates the party. with which the
voter afiliates, and if he desires to
to give his vote to candidates on
other tickets, he may mark in the
squares opposite their namas with
perfect safety. However, if he
desires to vote straight ticket, a
mark in the circle is sufficient. The
Republicans managers heretofore
"educated" their people to mark in
the circle and thus avoid danger of
having their scratched" ticket
thrown out. Now that the danger
has been eliminated, the Republicans
are careful to say nothing about the
election law.

The Republican managers are
