by controlling the government In the
interest of public service corpora
lions, such as railroads, surface and
trolly lines, water companies, gas con-
panies, telephone companies, bridge
building companies, contractors on
public works and the furnishing of
supplies to public institutions. In
such cases the tax payers are ffeeced
on all sides through the corruption of
the government in which those who
serve the public practice extortion and
give a rake off to the political boss
while the Offices and sinecures are di-
vided among his faithful henchmen.
Of course, the people have the power
to rule under the caucus and conven-
tons system. But in order to do so
they must all turn out and attend the
caucuses, having a clear idea of what
is to be done and of the proper per-
sons to whom to entrust the work.
This involves not only an interest in
public affairs, but constant and close
surveillance of the conduct of public
officials. Not only this but without
a special interest and activity ON the
part of the public, and such an ex-
change of opinion among the voters
as will cause them to see and under
stand things alike, will they be able
to act unitedly and overcome the
organized and active beneficiaries of
corrupt government.
In the effort to overthrow boss gov
eminent and make political conven-
tions reflect the will of the people the
practice of instructing delegates all
the way from the caucuSeS to the state
and national conventions have been
employed successfully from time to
time. The bosses always fight against
instructions. q Instructions from the
people to delegates to conventions is
the bane of the political boss, the
thing he detests most because it de-
prives him of power and threatens his
vocation.
The movement that is rapidly
spreading over the entire country, in
vading both parties alike in favor of
a direct primary for making nomina
lions is a healthy movement and sig
nalizes the doom of the boss, and the
advent of purer and better politics.
If the direct primary for making NOM
nations was in vogue in this state,
the same as in the states of the south,
SO that democratic voters of the state
could Individually have vote in nam
ing the candidate for governor, there
is no doubt but that George w. Berge
would receive eight out of ten of all
the votes cast But not having such,
and the railroads of the state resort
ing to every available subterfuge SO
to compass his defeat, the caucus con-
vention system affords them opportu-
mites to work that they would not
have under the primary system. The
caucus convention system affords an
opportunity for the trained politicians
to work their way into conventions
where their knowledge and skill in the
arts and tricks of the trade confer

WEDDING BELLS.
Wheeler.AlIen.

A pretty June wedding was that
by which Mss Ruth Gustavia
Allen was joined in marriage last
"Wednesday evening at $50
o'clock, to Mr. Herbert NJ.
Wheeler, at the residence of the
brides mother in this place. Rev.
c. +. Lewis spoke the words that
Joined them in wedlock.
Mr.. Wheeler is a prominent
young fruit grower of Palisades,
Mesa county, and enjoys the re-
spect of all who know him. Miss
Allen is one of Paonia's most
popular girls and has in her cir
Gle of acquaintance practically all
of our people.
The bride was arraycd in rich
mauve silk, made princess sty lie
and partially made from her
great grandmother's wedding
dress. Besides this family heir
loom she wore her great grand
mothers wedding gloves. She
was attended by Miss Olive Clark
who ohiciatcd as maid of honor
and Miss Jetta Anderson acted as
bridesmaid. Master John Head
a cousin of the bride, was ring
bearer
The residence was most bcauti-
fully decorated for the occasion
and IN the presence of about
thirty invited guests, most of
whom were relatives or very close
friends OF the families of the con-
tracing parties, they plighted
their vows that joins two lives in
one. After the ceremony the

NEWSPAPERS AND RAILROAD PASSES.

There is wide spread idea
that the anti pass legislation now
being agitated, in some way works
a discomfort on the members OF
the press. This is an error OF the
first magnitude. The publisher
of a paper pays literally tor every
mile he travels. 1T you were to
compute the actual space used by
the roads for giving publicity to
their rates, special trains. etc,
and compare 1t with the transPor-
tation bills of the publisher, the
balance in practically every case
would be in favor of the printer.
The railroads will always use
advertising space because they
are, of all men, the best posted on
the value OF printers ink. They
pay for the service at present IN
transportation because at pre-
vailing rates it is cheaper. If
passes we're prohibited they
would pay cash and the news
paper man would in majority of
cases profit thereby.
A pass issued tor valuable
consideration is quite different
thing from one issued to secure a
pull over the recipient.
The newspaper., 1906-06-29

DENVER democrats through the
organization controlled by Mayor
Speer, are disclaiming any de-
sire to secure places on the state
ticket. This action on their part
NAV be on account of their intent
to help Mr.. Evans elect his men
on the other ticket. For our part
we think Denver is entitled to
have representation on the ticket.
But the representation must be
in the person of democrats un-
tainted with the election crimes
that have recently been com
mitted there by the regular or
ganization. If they want to
knife the ticket we'll and good.
With a good decent ticket we can
get along without the Denver
machine. The Denver Democrat
and Republican may print as
many harmony editorials as they
like, assault Senator Patterson,
Sam Belford, John Rush and
others of those who stand for
clean politics, and still the result
will be the same. The outside
counties are not going to nestle at
Bob Speer's feet and follow his
orders in the next state conven-
ton. We recognize the symP-
toms in what is being said through
these papers and their associ-
ates. The gangis not sure OF its
ground and they are very anxious
for assurance that they are not to
be shut out. Personally we favor
being very discreet in making
any more promises.
