to prevent the matter coming to vote
BY talk of submitting the question TO
he people at the next election and
suggestion by Mayor Drach that the
whole thing should be threshed out in
a mass meeting of citizens, Olden-
burg insisted on vote, saying as he
lid so that he knew it was lost.
Just before the vote was taken,
Clint Marvin, passed box of cigars
to Marshal Weidenhammer requesting
that officer to place them on the table
foreseen the effect Of such action, he
surely would have waited until after
the vote had been taken, for there were
many unfavorable remarks concerning
this action and the invitation of the
marshall to "smoke on Marvin, wheth
err the license is raised or not" was
not sufficient to make the matter look
right to those present.
On vote Oldenburg and Cardnell
voted for the ordinance and Barlow,
Barnes, Lucas and Showalter cast their
Totes against it.
From Booze to Grizzley Water
Then Barnes presented the following
resolution, and moved it's adoption:

DEMOCRATS REPUDIATE

Evidently there are few Demo-
Gratis in the Colorado senate with inde-
pendence enough to repudiae the dis
graceful tactics of the big boss and,
instead of dancing when Speer fiddles
have manhood enough to rebel and re.
sent the lash which Big Bob

At least if there is truth in this, the
latest report from the scene of legi5-

some inquiry as to the whereabouts Of
the finance craftsmanship concerning
which the Denver Avalanche Edi-
torals have told us so much of late.
Denver, Jan. S. Today was day OF
tilibusting in the senate and from the
tap of the gravel this morning until
this evening the branch of the Demo-
cratic party in the senate, known as
the Speer or straight Democrats had
their work cut out for them and spared
for time every minute of the session
The trouble began when the eight
Democratic senators who had stood be-
hind Tully Scott for the position of
president pro TEN of the senate, form
ed a combination with the Republi
can senators and demanded that they
be given the more important commit
tees for themselves.
Senator Scott of Teller county, began
the fight and ho was forced up by
Senator Skinner Of FL Paso, who pre-
sented list of committees, which he
asked should be adopted by resolution.
Senator Adams, the leader of the
straight Democrats, was foored by
this move and began sparring for time.
He welcomed with relief the fact that
the house and senate were to meet in
joint session at l o'clock this after
noon to make the official canvass If the
