HEARST IN DILEMMA.
Iregulaity Troublesome --Mack
Says League Isn't Party.

Fearing that the issue OF irregulaT1ty will prove
troublesome to William Il. Hearst at the Buffalo
convention September Is the Hearst men are
beginning TO trim their sails. Norman E. Mack
yesterday gave out copies OF aletter which he sent
20 State Committeeman Arthur A Mclean. OF New
burg. in which he says that the Independence
League is not a party, in fact. nothing but Just
harmless little league made up OF Democrats, Re-
pubicans and Independents and that It's nomination
Of Mr.. Hearst on Wednesday next ought 20 be
sort OF stimulus the regulars To take on Mr.
Hearst. The fact is. that Mr.. Hearst Is finding II
difficult 10 work both ends at once. and, at the
time that he personally is shouting for the
destruction Of the political bosses. the bosses who
happen 10 be his friends saying that the In
dependence League is an inoffensive thing. Mr..
Mack expresses the hope that the Independents
League will refrain from doing anything which
would be offensive TO the regular Democracy.
II looks more and more like deal between
Hearst. Murphy and the Conners-Mack cOmolna-
tion. Mr.. Maek's letter says in part:
The fact that a large number OF citizens, Repub-
rCans. Democrats and Independents. meet and ex-

AS Democrat, and the New York memeer OF

are seeking the good OF the state and the triumph
OF the great cause of popular government through
the election Of Mr.. Hearst Governor oS our
commonwealth. His election will be a great vic
tory for the people and singing defeat for every
form Of political corruption and intrenched wrong.

i U. o. Hess. of this city. will be q
candidate for judge in the tenth
judicial district when the republi.
can judicial convention meets next
September. His candidacy is evok-
ing much favorable comment from
the press, not only in Pueblo, but
throughout the Valley. Pueblo has
claimed everything in sight at ju-
dicial conventions hitherto, and
Otero county, with big republican
majority. has never had gumption
enough to dispute the claim. 1t is
about time that this county was de-
manding some recognition.
Mr.. Hess is not only an able
lawyer, but a man who believes in a
square deal in politics as well as
ese-y other phase of life for the
reason that it is the only policy that
wins out in the long run. The last
issue of the Pueblo Sunday Opinion
contained complimentary notice
regarding the candidacy of Mr..
Hess which read as follows:
Hon. o. G. Hess, of La Junta,
was in town Wednesday, and has,
after persistent urging by his
friends, decided to be a candidate
for district judge before the repub-
lican convention. Otero county is
good for l 600 republican majority,
and casts about 10, 600 votes, so MIR.
Hess. as resident of that county,
has right to demand recognition
at the hands of the republicans of
Pueblo. He is an able lawyer and
will make a most capable judge. He
is a broad-minded gentleman and
believes in exact justice to all. He
is a veteran of the war of the rebel
lion and therefore a republican of
the old school before graft" be-
came sucha dominant factor in the
make upof the tickets. He has
every attribute to make one of the
best district judges this district has
ever had. and with him on the re-
publican ticket he will pull the
other candidates along to victory,
providing he is the right sort. 1t
seems to us that Mr.. Hess is en-
titled to the nomination at the
hands of the republican judicial
convention.

today, grazed in Kansas. against
$3.50 paid last Thursday, bulk of the
grass steers fat enough for killers,
sell at S4.OO to S4.S5. Few range
stockers and feeders are coming, as
grass is pretty good in all localities,
ann producers are making them
good this year. Fall pastures will
also be good in native territory, and
a lively trade in stockers and feed
ers is looked for beginning with the
advent of stuff from the big range
