TALK OF THROWING
DENVER OUT OF PARTIES

There is some discussion among
both Democrats and Republicans
ousside of the city of Denver. along
the line that; It would be well for the
outside people, to unite and elect
set of state officials this fall ana
leave Denver entirely off the political
map says Sunday dispatch from
Denver. OF course such a propos.-
tion seems almost preposterous.
Denver always has been and per-
haps always. will be the greatest fac
tor in Colorado politics. Neverthe-
less the outside people are disgusted
with the factions and the feuds and
the corporation control of both par
ties here.
At the Pueblo convention a num-
'ber of the delegates from the Arkan-
sas valley together with Weld ano
Iar'mer county boys and the San
Juan and also the Ouray and Gar
field county people were discussing
the proposition of throwing over
Denver They were simply sick
when w. G. Evans told the party
leaders to place Crawford Hill, "a
Democrat. on the Chicago delegation.
1t simply indicated to the RepuD,:-
cans outside what terrible hold the
corporations have on the party.
The, fight between Patterson and
Speer has long since taught the Dem
ocrats that the corporations controll-
el to a large degree both the men in
Denver and they too are talking of
ousting the Denver Democracy from
the, state, councils The discussions
of those in both. parties outside of
Denver toward throwing out their
msmbers in Denver has led to a ger-
eral discussion of unanimity OF ac-
ton by the outsiders against this
city.
or course such an action will never
be taken, but a general discussion of
it may lead to a compromise plan TO
take the control of both the organiz-
atoms from the hands of the corpor-
ations here.

PRAYING NIGHT RIDERS

These men were engaged in law

destroying private property of cit
izen who had violated no law and
whose only offense even in their
eyes, was his refusal to cooperate
with them. Nevertheless there SEEM
ed to them nothing incongruous in
the act of joining their leader in
prayer and in subsequently in sing
ing a hymn.
To conclude that in doing this they
a 1ded hypocrisy to their violation of
the law would be to mfsjudge their
motives and to misunderstood their
character.
There is no doubt that they felt
that they could with perfect propriety
invoke the Divine blessing upon

Having convinced themselves that
they are justified in destroying the
barns of men who do not cooperate
with them, they do not hesitate to
sesk Divine approval.
This sentiment is common among

akin to the spirit which animated
the Puritans of New England in the

New England but in those parts of
West Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee

lation is of Scotch or Scotch-Irish in
ancestry To a large extent the
Puritans of New England were dis
