POLITICAL PEDIGREE OF MR..
HUGHES.

Mr.. Charles j. Hughes is a genial
gentleman. and has no doubt given
full vaue received for those corpor-
ate services which he has rendered
to the Denver water, light and tram
way companies In the past. At any
rate he has grown wealthy at the
business. And as a result of BIDS ef-
forts those same corporations are
now trying to reward him with the
senatorship and are spending money
without limit.
But his selection does not seem to
be approved by large majority Of
members of his party. Their senti-
ments are voiced by Tully Scott of
Teller, who declared that Hughes is
owned body. soul and breaches by
those elements of the party that mus

THE HUGHES sLusH FUND.

The reckless and audacious use Of
slush funds by the Democratic par
ty in this state is fast becoming a
public scandal.
Already 1t is being limited that tn,
Standard Oil barrel has been tapped
and that the railways and other Den
yer public utility corporations are
contributing large amounts for the
election of Charles ]. Hughes as the
corporation senator.
Mr.. Hughes himself has already
shown signs of great liberality. He
has given $1,000 to the Bryan fund;
and 1t is very certain that he would
contribute many times that amount
to his own personal campaign at
home.
The Standard Oil special train to
cover the state is but one of the ex-
amples of the prodigal way In which
money is being flung into the cam
paign in behalf of the nominee of
the Denver public utility corpora
tons.
In Denver, and other counties Of
Colorado, legislative nominees are be
ing kept in the field for the purpose
of defeating the regular Republican
ticket and thereby enabling the
Democratic nominees for the legisla.
ture to be elected.
The Republican state central COM
mittee declares:
Mr.. Charles ]. Hughes, Democratic
candidate for United States senator
is. and has been for years. chief coun
Sc, for the Denver public utility cor
porat.ons, which are all monopolies.
Those corporations have tried to dis
lupt the Republican party for his
benefit and their own. They are now
running fake county and Legislative
ticket In the hope Of electing a
Democratic legislature.
The Republican party does not pre-
tend or desire to destroy corpora
lions. It believes In regulation, not
|destruc. ion.
But the Democrats pretend to be
Mortified at Guffey or a Haskell,
but name a Hughes for their highest
office, another corporation attorney
for governor, and tap an oil tank for
their headquarters.

NOT NECESSARY TO WORRY.

How about the American farmer!

for his crops now than he ever did

Roosevelt, posing as the Roosevelt

He is the first Republican presi-

He will be the first Republican

His reception has been a typical
one Of proverbial Southern hospital
Wy. Large crowds greeted him at
the dozen places where he spoke to-
day. The attention he received
while expounding Republican doctrin
was such as to indicate more than
passing interest.
The candidate made many refer
ences to his reception during the
day. At Lexington, where he ad-
dressed an audience which filled the
largest theatre in the city. he said:

TAFT AND THE LABOR ISSUE

The Democratic national commit
tee is making desperate efforts to
turn the tide of the labor vote away
from Taft and the Republican ticket,
by the issuance of malicious and mis-
leading circulars. The committee has
flooded the country with circulars to
the effect that Taft Is IAN enemy of
union labor Then they hire men
to distribute these circulars at lab
or meetings, and at shops and fact
cries all over the country.
AS a matter of fact, william H..
Taft has shown himself a more earn
est and consistent friend of the man
who works for living than Bryan
or any of his followers. Bryan
TALKS about his friendship for lab
oring men, while Taft SHOWS it.
Despite all the talk about Taft as
the father of the Injunction. it has
been shown that the Cleveland ad-
ministration was the first to use the
injunctive process against labor. At.
torney-General Bonaparte shows that
in the national administration five
out of nine proceedings under Dem
ocratic rule were directed against
labor organizations and their lead
ers. and that under Republican rule
there have been three such proceed
ings out of Sc cases.
Along practical lines Taft has prov
ed himself a real friend of labor.
rather than a mere talker of the
Bryan type. On Panama canal worl
Taft secured increased pay for the
steam shovel men, and as a result
they elected him an honorary mem
Der Of their union.
In this connection another Demo
cratic campaign lie has Just been ex-
ploded. 1t was charged by the cam
paign committee that d. ]. Keefe,
president of the international Long
shoremen's union. had been bribed
by President Roosevelt. by the pro-
mise of a federal job, to oppose Com
pers. who was boosting Bryan. Keefe
comes back promptly and declares
that he came out openly for Taft, be-
fore he saw the president at all;
that he only saw him for fiveminutes
and that in the presence of half a
dozen other labor leaders. and that
he has been promised no job, either
directly or indirectly. Gompers and
his crowd are trying to find some ex-
cuse for abusing Keefe because

THROWING MONEY IN DEMocRA.
TIC FIGHT.
Thousands Spent To Bring Bryan
Passes Sent Over State.

Denver, Oct, 14.-With each sue
ceeding day comes new evidences to
show tia. never in the history of
Colorado las such an array of cost
ly programs been prepared to result
in the election of a Democratic gov
ernor and a Democratic senate as
are being executed through the Dem.
ocratic state central committee in
this city at the present time.
The first evidences of this was the
preparation for the bryan special. ;
which is the bringing OF train all
the way from Lincoln to Denver and
returning it on special time for the
purpose of having Bryan three hours
in this city.
The next was the renting of an
auditorium from a local opera COM
pany for those three hours and pay
ing $500 az hour for its use, a total
of $500.
The next was the chartering of
Standard Oil special, which train
will make three weeks campaign
tour of the state. having on board all
OF the state candidates and; and
now comes further evidences of their
lavish expenditure of money In the
fact that wherever there are any Del
oerats in the state who desire to
hear Bryan Friday night. or. rather.
who desire to come to Denver and
join the crowd in their efforts to
beat the Taft demonstration. trans
