The Democrat is willful IL nothing
else. For political effect it made two
glaring misstatements yesterday
morning. In the first place it said
the state did not give Republican
majority and that Buchtels plurality
was less than Lindsey's vote. This
Is why we often declare the Demo-
crat cannot tell the truth. In the first
place the real Republican test is on
national politics. BY comparison
Of the vote 1t will be seen that the
Republican congressman received a
clear majority over all competitors
of fully 1000. Next, the Republican
nominees for state positions from
lieutenant governor down, received
from $4,000 to $4,000 majority over
eombined opposition. Next. the vote
as canvassed by the legislature the
other day. showed clean majority
for Buchtel over both Lindsey and
Adams, showing that Buchtel ran
ahead of the combination endeavor-
ing to knock him out-beat both
men. For superintendent of public
instruction Miss Craig received a
majority of more than 10000 over
her Democratic opponent, and with
the exception of Buchtel the entire
state ticket came in far large ma
jorities-not pluralities-and while
Buchtel did not receive majority
over all the nominees for governor,
he received a majority over both
Adams and Lindsey, for money, mar
bles or chalk, Notwithstanding the
Democrat to the contrary.

The Times OF Friday publishes a
cartoon holding Chas. S. Thomas up
as giant in everything that per
tains to manhood and principle, while
portraying Guggenheim by his side
as a nonenuty. This is the Thomas
who prostituted his administration
as governor to aid his sen.
atorial ambitions, who cried
when Patterson walked away
with the baggage, and who no later
than last September before an audi.
ence Of several thousand In dramatic
tones, said he would never sit in
another Democratic convention nor
aid the election of the Democratic
ticket K Patterson prevailed-who,
upon his honr, cried vengeance and
called Patterson about everything un.
der the heavens, etc, and who, in
turn. received castigation at the
hands of Mr.. Patterson, the learned
senator declaring that Thomas had
proved a traitor to the cause OF sill
yer in national conventions. and the
lie was passed back and forth be-
tween Patterson and Thomas during
the heated controversy. And We all
know how Thomas swallowed his
words-made himself all kinds of
a double-crosser before the campaign
was two weeks old. And now for this
man Thomas to be held up as para
gon or Righteousness and Guggen-
helm belittled makes the average per
son sick at the stomach. But there
is no more consistency in the Patter-
son-Thomas bunch than there is In
the work of the devil. And Durango
has a publication that apes Patterson.
