SUPREME COURT CANDIDATES.

The Republican party in making
its nominations Tor the supreme
bench has chosen men OF experience,
ability and judicial temperament.
Members OF the Colorado State Bar
association. IL the selection had been
lett to them, would have chosen Just
such men to sit In the high tribunal.
Such men as Justices Helm, Goddard
aud Maxwell have done much to pro-
tect the dignity and sanctity of the
law In the past and may be depended
upon to do as much in the future II
reelected. Hon. A. h. King, the
fourth candidate, u q lawyer OF high
standing on the western slope and
will undoubtedly have that portion
Of the state solidly behind him as a
candidate to succeed the late Justice
Casweu.
The Democratic party has not been
SO fortunate in the selection of its
judicial candidates. Frankly speak
ing, they are not what is known to
members OF the Colorado bar as "su-
preme court size." Then, too, their
selection was largely at the dictation
OF ex-senator Thomas NJ. Patterson.
1t Ia certain that a majority of the
votres of this state will not care to
''Pattersonize" the supreme bench.

Lamar Is this week holding exam

at every business house and residea

The fact that Lamar Is doing this
Is rather humiliating. too. In view of
the fact that it Il not as large q
town as Garden City, does not claim
to be as important and progressive a
town, and the postal receipts are
$500 less.
In round numbers the postal ne
ceipts of Lamar, on which free
mail delivery was earned. were $780,
700. Those for Garden City were $13
$50.
It has been nearly two months sine
The Telegram obtained and printed

would have to 90 dn before free de-
livery could be installed. Since that
time. the matter has been repeatedly

THE GREAT POLITICAL TRIMMER

Through all his political career
Honest John" Shafroth has been
prepared to promise all things to all
men in order to get office and hold
to it Twenty years ago he secured
his election as city attorney of Den
yer on a water company" ticket and
from that hour until this he has
served the corporations in season
and out of season, always posing.
however, as the great corporation
hater, the Haskell OF Colorado. At
the Democratic state convention MT.
Shafroth gained hds nomination for
governor on the strength of his as
sertion that he could 'pacify" Patter-
son and Jolly Speer at one and
the same time. He was elected to
congress as Republican protection
list and became free trader at a
moments notice when he found that
by somersaulting he could hold to his
seat. AS q Democratic congressman
he became the associate and bene-
ficiary of the Big Mitt organization
in Denver, yet to save his own face
he turned tail on his former associ-
ates at Washington and hurried from
the house OF representatives with the
sobriQuet of Honest John" to re-
turn to Denver to assure his former
cronies that he meant no harm to
them.
During the years Mr.. Shafroth
served In congress as Democrat the
sugar question was TO the front, but
the former Republican protectionist.
now Democratic free trader, re
fused to vote and was recorded at
his request as present" His con-
duct at that particular moment was
Illustrative of his whole career.
This year the Democratic pro-
tectionist" candidate for governor is
telling his auditors that the only way
to save sugar" is to elect the Dem
ocratic ticket. In every other part
Of the nation Democratic speakers
are assuring the people that the only
way to kill the sugar trust" is to
elect Bryan. because Bryan and his
party are pledged to the free entry
of sugar from all lands. the PHILIPPINE
islands included. And they are cor
rect In their postulate. The national
platform OF the party reads:
"We favor immediate revision of
the tariff by the reduction of import
duties. Articles entering into compe-
tition with trust-contrOlled products
should be placed on the free list. and
material reductions should be made
In the tariff upon the necessaries OF
Life. especially upon articles compel
ing with such American manufac-
lures as are sold abroad more cheap
ly than at home; and graduate reduc-
tions should be made in such other
schedule, as may be necessary to
restore the tariff to q revenue. basis. ,
The Democratic party would catch
the sugar producer coming and going
and every separate sentence of the
plank is intended for that purpose;
and Mr.. Shafroth has sense enough
to know the truth He Is conducting
his whole campaign under false pre-
tenses.-Denver Republican.
