And now comes the Leadville press
and asst the dear people that it is
all mistake about Charles J. Hughes,
the democratic candidate for United
States senator, being corporation
lawyer. Well, how we are so.re,im
deceived by our eyes and our ears any
how. If the Press is correct, then il
will not be safe for US to trust our eyes
and ears in any case hereafter, No, OF
course Hughes is not corporation law
yer but if he is not one then we have
none in Colorado.

A couple o. months ago there appear
ID in the HERALD the following:
The democratic national convention
placed in the party platform declara-
ton in favor Of legislation to prevent
corporations from contributing to pnrty
campaign funds and the Bryan boosters
have tcen making much noise over this
plank since the conyei ton but all to no
purpose as they have discovered that
iii passed by a republican congress in
January 1907 fully covers all that this
party plank calls for. The laugh is
certainly on the democratic convention.
The democratic paper down the street
became ur6uly excited over this and
denounced the statement as false and
dared us TO give the chapter and sec
lion where such law could be found.
We not only gtve him the chapter
