Engineer Cairns's Opinion.

New Britain, July 30.-Mayor George M. Landers read message at a special meeting of the common council last night in which he took the former sewer board to task, and its engineer, William H. Caldwell, to task for designing the east trunk sewer too small and for failing to re- port the matter to the common coun- ell in 1906. when this fact became ap- parent. The sewage disposal system cost the city half a million dollars and the startling revelation which the mayor made after consulting the expert advice of Engineer R. A.. Cairns of Waterbury. produced a sensation in the council chamber.

And just think, even foreigners are taking a hand in it (they should mind their own business). Just think, "Dick" Croker, who lives over in Ireland, says Gov Hughes ought to be in the Salvation Army! We'll, this ad writer doesn't think the above army would accept Dick as a member, so Dick" better keep still. But when he says Roosevelt is all right writing books, that's only one of 'sTeddy's" millions of achieve ments. Say, if Teddy would write a book about Dicks" career in the United States it would sell almost as fast as we are selling our nice tasting butter at 2S cents per pound, and II 1t did it would keep one printing ma chine going day and night; that IS because the quality of our butter IS the good kind. Well, we hear if Lil- lev gets the nomination for governor from the republicans and Gum is named by the democrats, 1t will be a hot affair; the Gum will explode or the Lilley win fade, and after election the ward ''heelers" will go take a back seat for year.

STATE TICKET
A WINNER

In these days when we are treated
to the spectacle of regulations assail-
ed and tumbling on all sides, the Re
publican administration of the past
two years, and. that OF two years ago,
are .ree from even the suspicion OF
blame. With the single exception that
Governor Mcdonald is assailed be
cause OF the conditions that made him
governor. not even democracy finds
fault with him or any OF his admin
isiration. Consider what Colorado was
under Governor Thomas and under
Soyernor Orman. recall the almost con-
slant need OF the militia TO maintain
order, and the reason Is apparent why
the Republican party has the confid-
ence of capital and labor alike and
has beer given the control OF the
state. Government is nearest ideal.
when its control OF citizens is least
lrksome. and when there is the wild
est personal liberty. Such has been
the record of the Republican party in
this state respecting all It's citizens,
and upon this showing alone. fits can
didates deserve TO win. For Colored
voters II is OF added interest that we
have achieved our best under the Re
publican administration. Governor
Mcdonald, who seeks reelection after
two years OF private life. has made
splendid record as an official. The
clean. economical administration OF
the states business, was OF the same
character that has made him n sue
cess as a business man at his home in
Leadville. He is plain man. no
fiamboyant orator. all wind and no
work He is a good party man. and n
man who has conducted himself with
respect TO Colored Coloradoans with
the same impartiality and friendlness
that has characterized his relations
with the whites. In our contact with
him, there has been none OF that at.
titude that says, 81 am better than
thou"
There is one man upon the Republi-
can ticket who should insure to the
Republican party the votes of every
Negro In the state. regardless of who
are his running mates. That man is
Tim O'Connor. of Boulder. candidate
Tor secretary Of state. How well we
remember the clear cut acceptance
OF the Negroes right to representa-.
ton In his office two years ago, when
he was first inducted into office.
Changes of many clerks were made in
his Office. but early In the game. he
made 1t known that Colored Republi,
cans had found in him, one who recog-
nized their loyalty and worth to the
party. and one who meant to repay II
himself. no matter what other depart
ments OF the state might do. Tim

O'Connor should be name to conjure
with in this state for Colored voters.
In the midst of political agitation.
whatever may be the opinions of in
diyiduals on measures and policies,
Negroes all should pick out such men
as nave shown themselves our friends
and bind themselves TO them with
hoops OF steel The race that loses
sight of its friends deserves none.
Vote for O'Connor. and the safest way
TO do SO is to write Republican" on
tue top OF your ballot Nov. 3.
Both In its national platform and
in its state platform. Democracy has
struck at the courts. BY jury trial
1t seeks to strip the courts of their
power TO enforce their mandates. As
ersions, unsupported by proof OF
wrong doing. are hurled al Colorado
courts, that put to shame the widest
rawlings of anarchists Democracy's
idea of letting the people rule, is 10
throw away the accumulated expert
eIce OF the ages and try the mob. II
some such motive does not inspire II,
how comes 1t then that judicial emas-
culation is so strenuously sought? The
Republican party is happy this year
in its choice OF supreme judges.
Judges Helm. Goddard. King and Max
T-ell. and their standing at the bar
and their records on the bench are
the best answer TO Democracys
shameless criticism. The maiorities
which they will receive at election,
will be the best answer TO the vacuous
plea for cutting down the power of
the courts.
Other candidates upon the state
tickets have served well in the past
and deserve election. but these above
named most vitally effect the Colored
people, and TO the doubling ones, We
simply suggest the fairness of COM
pairing their records with that of the
opposition, both as to their personal
ity and the platforms upon which they
stand.
It Is pleasure TO say that the state
ticket which is offered to the people
by the Republican party in this cam.
paign. does not have to depend upon
the wit of the press agent for atten-
ton. Rarely has any party made a
more courageous stand for public de-
cency and progress than has the party
in Its platform. nor offered the voters
a set of candidates whose record gave
stronger assurance OF carrying out the
provisions of the platform, and whose
qualifications for Office were better
attested. 80.

Bates, the veteran preacher from Los

He preached a splendid sermon to a
well filled house. 1t was enjoyed by
all present. AT night Chaplain T. G.
Stewart spoke TO crowded house and
people standing in every part OF the

Gospel truth, logical, persuasive, like
Paul ON Mars hill. and before Felix,
