rest from NJ. Goble q Co.
Her suit was being tried in the
District court yesterday before Spec.
ial Judge Charles Bagg The young
plaintiff alleges that about two years
ago while clerking in the store of
Goble n Co, she was accused of the
theft Of several lace handkcrchiefs
and that she was innocent. She claims
that the arerst was malicious.
According TO the testimony she was
searched by another clerk in the
store at the command OF MIR. GoDlc
and was then compelled to stand un-
der guard until the police arrived She
was again searched by Chief kimscy
and although nothing was found upon
her Mr.. Goble caused her arrest. At
her trial in police court another clerk
appeared and con- tsed that IL was
she who had taken the handkerchiefs.
After her confession the guilty
clerk was net placed under arrest.
That is one OF the features of the case
by which the plaintiff hopes to prove

gans Those papers claim that the
question OF emigration and naturaliza-
tion should have been settled by the
exchange Of notes. The view is voiced
by the Asahi which is an Independent

standing IS superfluous, then all of the
other ententes are likewise superflu-

highly gratifying. but the opposition

public accounts in Weld county has
been duplicated In his office as auditor
of state. While his manner is quiet
and unassuming, he has fully demon
strated his capacity and fitness for any
position of trust in the gift of the peo-
pie. He is progressive but possesses
the necessary conservatism for pub
lie official In charge of the funds and

excellent record he has already made

that the elections in that city should be

ally took cognizance, after long and re-
peated instances of contempt, of the
defiance Of its authority by Senator
Patterson, through his newspapers
for these reasons the Democratic party
now arraigns it before the people as
unworthy Of confidence.
The nominees for the Supreme
bench on the Democratic ticket at pres
ent, or at least a majority of them,
were placed there in obedience to the
dictates of Mr.. Patterson. If elected
they are expected, If any case should
arise involving the decisions already

and to place the state again. SO far as
that can be done by legal decision, in
the condition from which 1t was deliv-

The Republican party OF Colorado.

In William II. Taft, the Republican
party has presented to the American
people a candidate for President who
is a statesman, tried In the hard
school of experience, who has success
fully discharged the gravest respon-
sibilities in the high offices he has
honored under President Harrison.
Mckinley and Roosevelt. He is a man
of conservative and judicial tempera

his broad and farseeing craftsmanship
have contributed in a marked degree
to the progress and prestige OF our
common country. He has been the
trusted captain and adviser OF Presi-
dent Roosevelt in bringing forth and
putting into practice the party reforms
and policies. In his determination to
continue the good work Of the pres

confidence OF the President and OF the
vast majority OF his countrymen.

which rendered 1t possible thereafter
for the voters of Denver to express
their will at the polls and to have that
will publicity registered. and which
made 1t impossible for the Democratic
party, through its organized gang Of re-
peaters and ballot suffers to return as
many votes as were necessary to over
come any Republican majority outside
of the city, the Democratic party has
never forgiven the Supreme Court. BY
that action the Supreme Court truly
forfeited the confidence" OF the Dem
ocratic party; and that Is the main rea-
platform this year is arraigning the Su-
preme Court as unworthy of the conf
dence of the people of Colorado.
The Patterson Contempt Case.
The third instance in which the Su
preme Court has taken action which
displeased the Democratic party In gen
eral, and ex-senator Patterson in par
/
terson contempt case. For long time,
in fact for series of years, Mr.. Pat
terson's newspapers had been abusing
the Supreme Court. The court had TAX
en- no notice of this abuse, but finally
the outrage became so fragrant that the
court was constrained to cite Mr.. Pat
terson for contempt. Certain articles
had appeared In his newspapers chars-
ing the court with corrupt conduct and
certain cartoons had been published
which were of the most contemptuous
nature. In defense OF his action Mr..
Patterson impudently pleaded that the
charges Of corruption which he had
made were true, and declined to apollo
gize for either the articles or the car
toons. The court therefore adjudged
him guilty Of contempt and fined him
in the sum of one thousand dollars.
The opinion OF the court in this case
was written by Mr.. Justice Gunter,
Democrat, who joined with his Repub-
ncan associates in defense Of the honor
OF the court. For thus unfolding the
prerogatives Of the supreme legal trib-
una! of the state and for thus going
contrary to the will of the supreme die
tator Of the Democratic party OF Colo
RADIO, Justice Gunter was turned down
for the denomination by the Democratic
convention two years ago and In his
place was named friend and 'protese
of the Western Federation Of Miners.

treated by the Supreme Court within
