The girls have been pestered to death
by the advances of a crowd of Ham

been in town. After the show there
always was a crowd of these fellows
standing at the theater door waiting
to make dates with them.
Every where they go they are fob
lowed and annoyed and according to
their story they have been insulted un-
TIL they are tired of it., Last evening
after leaving the show there was a
score of these fellows waiting for them
They went over to the Maine restau

number of these young men wa1ted
outside for them.
They claim the young man in oues-

him and asked him what he meant by
circulating stories about them. He re-

Elsie at once fought back and the
young man ard the girl then grappled
with each other. Clara, Elsies sister
saw she was getting the worst Of the
fight and according to her own story
she struck him in the face, knocking
him down. When he got up. his
clothes were disheaveled and his hat
battered, all three of the girls went af-
ter him and made things interesting
for him.
Just then he grabbed one of the girls

SAYS CRITICISM OF
DELEGATION UNJUST
Judge Gillett's Defeat Laid
Entirely to the For
tunes of Politics.
JURIST TALKS IN INTERVIEW
Would Not Have Done Any Good If
Lake County Had Got in Wat
sons Bandwagon.

Members of the Lake county dele
cation to the state republican conven-
ton feel that a good deal of unjust
criticism has been heaped on their
shoulders because they did not get into
;he Watson band-wagon. 1t is Ge-
clared by those in a position to know
that If the Lake county delegation had
hopped to Watson it would not have done
Judge Gillett any good. It is declared
that Mr.. Watson was barely able to
push over the line himself and that he
would have been in no better position
to help Judge Giilett had the Lake
county delegation swung to him. His
force was not organized to nominate
Mr.. Gillett and with 9-I0 of the dele
gates gone, it is doubtful whether he
could have helped Mr. Gillett nine
hours after he was nominated himself.
Even Taylor and Miller men would
have supported Mr.. Gillett and Watson
wouldn't have given Lake county anv
credit for getting into the band-wag-
on when he could forsee the result as
well as Gillett could.
Judge Gillett himself made the state
ment to THE TIMES this morning that
he had no criticism of any member
Of the Lake county delegation or any-
one outside of 1T.
The program was outlined in ad-
vance" declared Mr.. Gillett "and it was
followed out to the letter by Judge Nc
Mahon. chairman of the Lake county
delegation. My Instructions were fol-
lowed minutely and 1t is unjust TO
hold the Lake county delegation in
any way responsible for the defeat"
Indeed Judge GilIett's personal friends
say that his defeat was merely the
fortunes sof war and that above all
others the Lake county republicans are
blameless.

LOOK FOR INCREASE
AFTER THE ELECTION

Traffic men of the lines running
into Denver are confidently looking
for a marked betterment in freight
business within the next few months.
especially after the presidential cleo
tion in the fall. Crops are so good
that freight of that nature will have
to be moved in spite of any lingering
financial stringency which may still
affect other lines of trade, and witt
the harvest of the good crops it is
expected that money will get easier
and confidence more universal. a
great many enterprises which will
mean increased freight rates are be-
ing held in allegiance. it is under
stood, until the result of the election
is learned and all the railroads are
looking for brisk picking up il
their traffic after the first of the
year.
Our freight traffic is only about
/ 0 per cent below normal" said Cen
eral Agent j. f. Vallery of the Bur-
lngton yesterday. ''and | look for
better business within few months.

every one of our cars will be in use

year; wheat is good, too, and the
beet crop is fairly good. | understand.
1t looks as if there would be heavy
cattle movement this fall, and all
these things are going to count in
bringing freight business back to
normal again. If the mining men
could only get a decent price for
the lower metals, that would be all
we need to keep our freight depart
