opera house Tuesday night were intro
duced by Senator Ed. Taylor of this
city. A large audience was present
as both democrats and republicans
were anxious to see real live
martyr Most martyrs are dead
you know but n live martyred ex-gov-
ernor is novelty
DR.. Rowan was the first speaker.
He is from Ouray and is the candi.
date for congressman at large. DR..
Rowan wants Colorado to take her
place among the states of the nation
hut failed to say where he thought
the Old Centennial state had been for
the last several years Oe course
she's way ahead of the rest of the
states in the union, but we thought
that was where she belonged. So if
Colorado takes another place it will
naturally be backward movement.
He wants to be elected to congress.
Then that would surely be back
wand movement. Isn't that easy
logicY The doctor also wants to Ere
deem Colorado. Does he want re.
demption from prosperity, increased
wages, business stability ,eaceful con
ditions., etc3
Then he says we are in the midst
of war. Oh, yes he must mean the
war of the yellow journals. That is
bad, to be sure, and it would be
good scheme for him to get Patterson
to put down the yellow" insurrec-
tion.
The doctor says his opponent
doesn't talk enough. But, perhaps,
he thinks and acts, and that is just
as good II not little better. The
doctor "works his mouth - all right.
He is quite good talker, though
plainly not accustomed to making
political speeches. DR.. Rowan then,
after asking the citizens to vote to
keep corporate greed from politics.
and making sort of apology for the
state democratic convention, closed
saying. if he was elected to congress
he would vote for several Issues.
Miss Maloney, the candidate for
superintendent of public instruction.
whom Patterson forced off the Lind
sey ticket, makes a very pleasing ap-
pearance but seemed rather youthful.
She had small amount of stage
fright, as she hasn't run for pub
lie office before Bun she will doubt
less get over that by the time she is
candidate as often as Mr.. Adams
has been.
Judge Seeds also had talk about
Colorado being disgraced He was
laboring under a distressing hoarse'
ness when he began. but as he warm
ed up to his subject his voice became
clearer. The Judge said there was
disrest in the state. but he prob
ably meant in the democratic party.
That organization has all the disrest
that has been seen for some time, but
he needo't call one party the state. y
And in spite of Mr.. Adams being on
the platform so close by, Judge Seeds
talked dreadfully about corporations.
1t may be Alva didn't hear for he
was busy thinking up speech, and
possibly the others agreed not to tell
Milt Smith the way he talked.
The judge said the republicans had
plenty Of money in their campaign
fund and the democrats didn't have
any. So it must be that the demo-
Gratis have but little faith in their
election if they cannot see fit TO con-
tribute to their campaign fund
enough to defray their own expenses,
and the incidentals.
Judge Seeds talked some about po-
litical thieves, which we were glad
he mentioned as Ben Lindsey said
Saturday night that he knew where
to find political thieves and it wasn't
the republican party he cited, either
The Judge was worked up about the
people not wanting DR.. Buchtel for
candidate-there never was suspi-
cion that the democrats wanted him
to run against, though.
He said nothing ever occurred in
Cripple Creek tu warrant military
rule: that ne could have handled the
situation lots better without the SOL
diers. Do you think for minute
that one man, however great could
have preserved peace and saved prop
erty amidst a violent mobs
Judge seems in dead earnest about
everything he says and reminds one of
