ALL TO UNITE
DEMOCRATS OF THE NORTH
START HOUSE CLEANING.
Will Make Effort to Relieve
Party From Corporation In
fluences - Banquet In
Fort Collins.

On the night of July "a banquet
of leading democrats from Boulder,
Larimer and Weld counties will be
given at Fort Collins, at (which
state wide movement will be inau-
gurated to redeem the democratic
party from the taint of corporation
influence.
Leaders of the party in the three
mentioned counties are arranging
plans for the gathering, which prom
ises to be one of the most notable
meetings of the state democracy
held in recent years. Senator w. L.
Clayton of Weld and Editor Fl. C.
Branch of Fort Collins, chairman of
the Larimer county central commit
tee, are among prime movers of the
affair.
For some months it has been ap-
parent to leading democrats Of the
state that the condition of the party
organization in Denver demanded
the most serious consideration. The
alliance of Speer and Dayoren, the
bosses of the Denver machine, with
Evans and the other utility corpora
tion heads of that city, had deyel-
oped situation that required dras-
tic measures to correct.
These northern members OF the
party, realizing the state of affairs
that exists, and not permitting
themselves to be blinded by speclou'
representations, are fully agreet
that Spere and Dayoren shall be dis
chared from their stewardship ant
that their acts shall be repudiated
They expect and are assured of the
hearty CO. operation of the democrats
lin the neighboring agriculture
counties.
1t was with the idea in view OF
accomplishing this end that an in
formal meeting of northern demo
Gratis was held several days ago.
Those present discussed the Denver
situation in all its phases, and at
the conclusion of the conference it
was decided to extend invitations
generally to the democrats OF the
three northern counties to attend
the banquet at Fort Collins July "a,
and the meeting preceding the ban
Quet.
The business to which the dele
gates to the Fort Collins meeting
and banquet will address themselves
will be the outlining Of program
for united action in the state con-
vention that will effectively rebuke
Speer and Davoren and cleanse the
party from the corporation taint.
1t is we'll known that the fatal mis-
take made by all elements which
seek to bring about a correction OF
evil conditions is the state OF unpre-
paredness in which they find them
selves at the crucial moment.
This error will not be permitted by
the Boulder. Larimer and Weld
county Democrats. They will con,
slider the situation earnestly, and
when the chairman of the state con-
vention pounds his gravel on the
table definite program will be
agreed upon, in which will be con-
so]idation of reform forces and
unity of action that will decisively
declare to the people of the state
that the Speers and Davorens have
no more right to place in Demo-
cratic organization than have their
masters, MotTat, Evans, and Cheese
man.
