Of the benefits derived from regulating
corporations referred to. The Republic
cans are now asking when In the his
tory of the Democratic party, they have
presented such list Of progressive
and useful legislation In SO short q
time as was given to the people of this
state by the Republican party at the
last session of the legislature?
The Republican leaders also point
with much amusement to the attitude
OF the Democratic press. which during
tho lastcampaign ridiculedthe promises
In the Republican platform that 1t
would provide local option law; but
the promise was carried out notwith-
standing the opposition of the brewer
les and the liquor interests, and their
friends of the Democratic press and
party.
1t will be remembered that the
Democrats passed an eight-hour law
which was unconstitutional and
brought on a labor strike. 1t will also
be remembered that the Republicans
had to correct this mistake and enact
a constitutional eight-hour law. which
is now on the statute books. That this
law Is satisfactory is evidenced by the
fact that the Democrats have entirely
abandoned the eight-hour law as an
issue.
Surely the Republican party in Colo
RADIO has made good" and II there is
any virtue in overcoming obstacles and
difficulties. performing duties effect
lively and efficiently, the Republican
party In this state Is entitled to the
full confidence of the voters.

promises of reform and carries them
out. as the Republican party has done.

Bryan had been defeated the second
time. he sent the following telegram to
Mr.. j. F. Merrill Of Kansas City:
Than you for your telegram Of con-
dolence. The defeat was a severe one.
You all did nobly. I cannot consci-
entiously ask the party to consider me
again for the presidency. I led them
to defeat four years ago and that
ought to be enough for any one man."
And yet he set out deliberately to
secure the nomination for 1908 and
succeeded. Roosevelt kept his word.
Mr.. Bryan did not. The temptation
