ELLIOTT FOR SENATOR

In another column In this issue may
be found the announcement of w, G..
Elliott as a candidate for the Office of
State Senator, subject to the decision
of The republican voters in this dis
trict, composed of the counties Of Au-
dubon, Dallas and Guthrie. ut the pri
mary election June 2, 1908.
Mr.. Elliott is native of Ohio, but
was raised and educated ia Iowa, he
being son of the late Benjamin #.
Elliott, veteran OF the civil war and
prominent farmer and citizen of
Union county. He is we'll fitted aud
equipped for the position he is asking
at the hands of the voters of his dis
trict, in both natural and acquired
ability, bieng graduate of Cornell
College, at Mount Vernon, Iowa; and
also graduate in the law from Drake
University where he completed his
course after studying for some time at
the State University. He has never
held any Office, but has always been
identified with the best interests of this
community and county in every move
ment for its betterment. He has always
been a loyal republican giving all the
nominees his earnest support, speak
ing many times in this county and
others in behalf of the ticket and re-
publican principles. In private life
he is clean, straight and honorable,
always taking aposition and standing
for what he believes to be right. Mr..
Elliott is not only we'll known in this
county but has a wide acquaintance
throughout the state. He is strong,
pleasing and forceful speaker, and
will make an active campaign for the
nomination. If he shall be chosen
senator, this district will be strictly
on the map in the coming general
assembly. Republicans in this county
believe that since each of the other two
counties has had the senator for eight
years, in all fairness and justice it
should now come to this county. We
are pleased to present the name of Mr..
Elliott to the republican voters of the
| district as a candidate worthy of their
confidence and support.

Believes In The Bows

The Cedar Rapids Republican gives
o lengthy report OF a banquet given by
The Mems Club OF Doctor Cony beare's
church, In that city, TO celebrate the
first anniversary OF It's organization.
Among other matters of much interest
the report says: Reverend Doctor
Cony beare believes in the boys. The
boys OF the Central Park church look
upon him as q second father. He en-
Joys their confidence and their good
will, No greater tribute could be paid
to minister. And Doctor Conybeare,
pleased with the great work that his
Mems club has been and is doing,
thought 10 himself, Why not do some
thing for the boysY Then he studied
what was best to do and what was the
best method in which to do it. Last
week he organized the Boys club. And
last night he told the members of the
Mems club what he had done and
asked for their assistance"

THE COUNTY CONVENTION
Allison Delegates Have Large Majority
And Run Things To Suit Themselves

The Republican County Convention
held last Saturday was we'll attended,
nearly all the delegates being present
The Allison men numbered about two
to one and run the convention to suit
themselves; but the Cummins men came
up smiling and made but little opposi-
ton to anything proposed by the
majority. From an experience gained
in attending many conventions we
could discern that every man who
appeared on the program had his part
well in mind and needed no prompting.
Though no attack was anticipated
Chairman Farquhar was on hand in
on the big clock pointed to one thirty.
he called the convention to order, read
the call and then stated that the county
committee had selected John Weighton
for temporary Chairman, with Charles
f. Waits and G. w. Marlin as Secre-
taries of the convention. The action
of the committee having been ratified
by vote of the convention, the officers
took their places and proceeded to
business. What was done, together
with list of the delegates is given in
another place in this issue. AS the
control of the convention had been
secured by making fight for Senator
Allison, the majority considered it a
fitting thing to pass resolution to
that effect, just as the Cummins men
would have done for their candidate
had they been in control. So resolu-
lions were presented and adopted
indorsing the administration of Presi-
dent Roosevelt, complimenting the
distinguished services of Senator Ali
son and declaring in favor of his
denomination and election for anoth-
err term. The business done, the con-
vention adjourned The Allison dele
gates gathered in little groups to exult
over the outcome, while the Cummins
men dispersed to dream of the former
days that were better than these; and
to FURNISH their weapons for another
engagement the Second Tuesday in
June.

From A Cummins Paper

There is no getting round the fact
that this congressional district is for
Allison. Audubon and Shelby coun-
ties are the only ones that are likely
to be for Cummins. This being the case
the district will not elect a Cummins
man. 1t might have done so if the
Cummins men had not drawn the lines.
But whatever might have been, it is too
Potter will be satisfactory TO the rest
OF the republicans Of the district Since
he is ardently for Secretary Taft, and
would not under any circumstances be
for Shaw or an nti-administration
man, he is satisfactory to Shelby coun.
ty republicans-Harlan American.

BRILLIANT
WAS THE END

The parade, the initiatory cere-
monies and the big banquet were the
closing features of the WOOdmcn of
the World log rolling held in Grand
Junction yesterday. All three of
these big features were pulled off
last night.
Hundreds and hundreds of people
lined the sidewalks on Main street
and watched the parade headed by
Head Consul |. /. Boak and other
general and state and local officials
of the great order pass from Margery
hall to the Auditorium, where the
initiatory work was done. The Of
ficers rode in automobiles and were
followed by several hundred Wood
men on foot. The Teller Indian band
and the Fruita concert band took
part in the big parade. 1t was a
most interesting pageant and the
choppers were enthus. .astically
cheered as they marched along.
During the early hours of the ev-
ening concerts which were hugely
enjoyed We're given on Main street
by the two bands.
The initiatory ceremonies began at
the Auditorium about s pm. and
were witnessed by some 800 mem
bers of the order. A class of over

ceremonies were impressively rem
dered.
Shortly after . O'Clock the Wood
men repaired to Margery hall, which
had been converted into a blaze of
light and beauty for the occasion, and
there the banquet was served.
The menu was temptingly pre-
pared and delightful served.
The program of toasts carried out
late in the evening was most enjoya-
BILE. E. A. Sherman acted as the
toastmaster The responses by the
head officers and others were very
happy and interesting.
The banquet was one of the big
gest and most successful ever held in
the city. 1t was late hour when
the festivities were brought to an
end, and the log rolling, one of the
best ever held in western Colorado,
was over.
Several of the head officers re-
mained over in the city today

HOWARD AND POWERS
PARDONS ARE DELAYED

Dispatches received by The Senti-
ment made by dispatches sent out
yesterday from Frankfort, Ky, to
the effect that Governor Wilson had
issued unconditional pardOns to Ca
leb Powers and Jim Howard, two of
the men charged with the murder of
Governor Goebel, were based upon
a false report.
A message was sent from Frank
fort to the republican state conven-
ton at Louisville on Wednesday
night to the effect that Governor
Wilson had pardoned Powers and
Howard, and an announcement to
that effect was made before the con-
vention by the Nchairman, and there
was much cheering and enthusiasm
over the report and some of the del
egates took up a collection gather
ing up several hundred dollars for
the men. The announcement that
pardons had been issued was circu-
lated throughout the country. but
yesterday Governor Wilson denied
that he had issued pardons to the
two men.
According to today's reports there
was well founded belief that the
pardons would be issued on Wednes-
day, and in this manner the report
was started. Governor Wilson will
not say whether or not he expects to
pardon the two men, but some of his
political advisers insist that he will
do so.
