TO HOLD A
ROUSING RALLY

Denver, Jan. 30.-Preparations
are fast nearing completion for a
Republican rally day on Lincoln S
birthday next month. Invitations
have gone out from the state
chairman to the state central com
mittee, the county chairmen, and
the Republican editors together
with all other Republicans to
come to Denver and enjoy good,
old-fashioned lovefeast. 1t is the
time when the plans for winning
this fall s campaign will be in
augurated.
The day will end with ban
quet at the Albany hotel, where
covers will be laid for every per-
son that will be present. The
speakers will be selected from
among the ranks of the working
men in the Republican party.
Perhaps two of them will come
from the state central committee,
two from the county chairmen
md two from Republican editors.
Chairman Vivian is planning for
the greatest reunion of Republi-
cans ever held in the state. There
are no factions now in the party
and there are no reasons why a
large attendance will not be pres
ent.
Concerning the gathering, The
Coloradoan, Sam Woods paper,
says:
Colorado Republicans are to
have sort of Harvest Home"
or Husking Bee" on the ami
versary Of Abraham Lincoln's
birthday, the 18th of February.
Lincoln was born in 1909, which
is some years back. There are
but a few Of us who remember the
day with any great amount of
clearness. But keeping green the
memory of Lincoln is one of the
assets of the Republican party, to
which have belonged many illus
trious men, including those who
will gather in Denver on that oc-
casion to attend one of the several
conferences which will be held, or
the banquet. The members of the
state committee will be on hand
and will renew their expressions
of confidence in the state chair
man, Hon. John F. Vivian. The
chairmen of various county COM
mittees will have a meeting OF
their own, and Republican editors
from all parts of the common
wealth will rally round the flag.
Both parties are commencing to
figure on the fall campaign al
ready, even before the city cleo
ton in Denver. This shows that
both are anxious to affect the
best possible organization, and
that neither is as yet any too GER
tain of victory. Much will de-
pend upon the manner in which
the candidates and issues line up
before the people in the national
campaign. The Republican par
ty,. from an organization point of
view, has the advantage of being
in power.
