Special to the Herald.
Denver Colo, Oct. 1.-THE most
spectacular political campaign ever
waged in Colorado is now at its
height Ring rule and the domination
of corporation in politics are the chief
issues. though there are other ques-
tons figuring in to add spice to the
campaign.
The fireworks of the campaign and
the thing which has tended most to
raise it above the ordinary level of
political contests in popular interest
! is the candidacy of Judge Ben B.
Lindsey for the governorship on an
independent ticket Judge Lindsey is
pretty well known throughout the
+ country as the author of the Juvenile
Court law in Colorado. which has
/ formed the model for similar legisla-
/ ton in twenty-four states He is
/ foe OF ring rule and talks as freely
Of corruption in his own Democratic
I party as in the opposition party.
! Judge Lindsey desired the Democratic
nomination for governor if he could
! secure it without giving any pledges
OF promises. When it became appar-
ent that Senator Patterson and his
! followers were to control the state
convention Judge Lindsey refused to
allow his name to 80 before that body.
I As the campaign has progressed it
| has become evident that the indie
pendent voters are rallying to the
I Lindsey standard In great number.
/ Lindsey is making his campaign prac-
I tically without money. He has no
organization and has refused to ac-
cept a single dollar of corruption
money. II elected Judge Lindsey will
90 before the legislature with a de-
mand for the enactment OF q primary
election law. which will take party
machinery out Of the hands OF cor
/ pOratiOn bosses. and r,u Colorado Of
/ corporation control He will also
ask for other important legislation af-
fccting The judiciary Of the state.
The Republicans experienced much
difficulty in making up their state
ticket The names of half a dozen
party leaders We're mentioned in con
nection with the gubernatorial nomi-
nation before the convention met but
no one Of them was desiriOus OF en-
tcring the contest under existing con
ditions. Finally, when the convention

met. the nomination went to Philip B.
Stewart, a Colorado Springs lawyer.
But Mr.. Stewart declined to make the
race unless William II. Gabbert, Chief
Justice of the Supreme Court, who
is running for reelection, withdrew
from the ticket The objection to
Judge Gabbert was based on the allie
CATION that he favors corporations.
After Mr. Stewards declination the
Republicans finally induced Dr. Henry
a Buchtel. chancellor of the Univer-
sity OF Denver, to accept the nominal
ton.
Alya Adams. the Democratic can
didate, is one of the most widely
known men in Colorado politics
After having filed two terms in the
governors chair he was a candidate
again two years ago. On that occa-
sion he claimed to have defeated Jas.
II. Peabody. Republican. In the con-
test that ensued the Supreme Court
unseated 4 sufficient number of Dem
Ocrats in the senate to give the Re
publicans control of that bodxs The
senate then declared Peabody reflect
ed. It is as a result Of this turn of
affairs that Adams seeks a vindica-
ton this year. As a matter of fact,
however, Adams was desiriOus of hav-
ing a try for the senatorship. but
Senator Thomas VI. Patterson, OWNER
Of two Denver newspapers and yir-
tually the Democratic state boss.
could not see it that way He prac-
tically forced Adams to accept the
gubernatorial nomination and then
had a plank inserted in the party plat
form that eTectually puts Adams out
OF the running in the senatorial con
test
The effect Of the Socialistic cam
paigu. with William d. Haywood at
the head OF the ticket, is problemati-
cal. The Socialists do not expect to
elect their candidates, but they will
draw votes from both the old parties.
They will have the strong backing of
the Western Federation Of Miners and
Of the labor organizations in general.

JOHN D WITH
HIS OWN OIL

Rev. David N. McInturff, head of
the Peoples United church and
impressario of the Alamo colony in
Idaho, has locked horns with John
d. Rockefeller and declares the lat
ter to be a menace to the country.
The bishop" has turned Socialist
and one of the first things he de-
sires to see done is the RELOCATION
to the inferno regions of the
Standard oil kings and his malig-
nant methods.
John d. Rockefeller does not
own the oil wells and the coal
mines; and if he can take them
with him when he dies they should
be used in burning him." is the de-
livery Of the bishop"
Bishop McInturff came into Spo.

in the work of establishing a new
church in this city, the split in the
old organization which was housed
in the Albion block having made il
desirable to establish a new con
gregation which will be in har

One of the few top notch evan
gelists in the United States today
is the Rev. VIM. A. Sunday, who
was once the hard drinking Billy
Sunday, star fielder of Anson's IA
NOUS White Stockings, of the day
of Pfeffer, Burns, Williamson and
Flint.
Sunday was on spree in Chica-
Ego years ago when he wasn't any
more such-a-much ball player. He
heard a street preacher talk Jesus
Christ, and there and then Billy
Sunday gave up drink, gave up bad
company, gave up ball playing and
became a revivalist himself.
1t is nothing now for the Rev.
Sunday of the Presbyterian faith,
ITO sway an audience of 5000 VIII
gospel truths straight from the bat.
And his home runs often consist of
500 conversions in a week.
But he hasn't forgotten the great
American game, as the accompany

Ever since | have taken up wrest.

perience, will tell you how | train
for a big match.
First, | eat and drink what most
tempts my appetite. And ! may
tell you have a thoroughly sound
appetite; | am in no way fastid-
ious.

death for would-be stronk man.
Every day of my life indulge in
a fixed course of exercise: but, at
the same time, | rarely confine my
self to any single branch of athlet-
ic training.
Thus, | do bout of skipping one

heavy weights, and wrestling, OF

With sufficient practice, assidu.
Gus study and training on the lines
lhave laid down, any man who is
physically healthy can improve
his physique out Of all recognition
But training is very hard work and
must be persevered in when once
begun, to get the best results.
Many men start to train. but at
ter few days or weeks give it up
because they lack perseverance, or
expect too quick results. Nature

than did the building laborers last

regard baseball as the most
manly, honest, upright game in the
United States, absolutely free from
dishonesty or trickery-clean as a
hounds tooth.
Every game is won or lost on its
merits.
There is only one thing regret
about baseball, and that is that
they had to drag the big leagues
down to the Sabbath breaking
level. That has alienated many
who were defenders Of the game.
My hope and wish is that the
game may always be kept as free
from gambling and dishonesty as
it has been and is and that Chicago
may win the flag.
