REGISTRATION BILL VICIOUS.
Patterson Says Measure Passed b!
Extra Will Increase Election
Frauds

Senator Patterson's opinion OF the
extra session registration bill.
The Big Mitt bill has passed the
legislature. In the name of every de-
cent voter Of the city of Denver and
the state of Colorado, The News calls
on Governor Shafroth to refuse his
signature, and to veto this bill which
would legalize election thievery.
There is no need to 60 into detail
in pointing out the viciousness of the
so-called registration bill to man like
Governor Shafroth. He has had ex-
perience with practical politics. He
knows how the registration lists were
padded in the old days, before Mayor
Speer's claws we're clipped. He knows,
for he was elected to congress by
those fraudulent votes, and rightly
won his nickname Of Honest John
by refusing to hold office to which he
was not entitled. The bill now before
him asks him to authorize and protect
the frauds which he repudiated then.
The News is well aware that with
out q registration bill Of some sort,
the primary law viii be imperative.
But the primary law will not be ef-
fective until 1912 and there will be
plenty Of opportunity to enact a reg
istration law at the regular session OF
the next legislature

STEPHEN AND SQUARE DEAL"
Republican Candidate for Governor
Promises Business Administration.

Adherence to the policy OF square
deal" to all, support of the Roosevelt
and Taft ideals of government. guar
I antee of business methods in conduct
| ing affairs Of state and rigid economy
in handling its finances, is. in brief,
| the platform upon which Senator John
b. Stephen of Colorado City asks cleo
ton as governor on the Republican
ticket. Mr.. Stephen has made his po-
sition plain in statement given out
Just before the Republican state con
,ention. This declaration appealed TO
the peoples convention at Colorado
Springs so forcibly that delegates al
most unanimously demanded his nom
ination. 1t is a statement that will ap-
peal to every Coloradoan, who SIN
cerely desires business administra-
ton.
Mr.. Stephens statement follows:
III elected governor of Colorado,
shall as far as comes within my
power support the Taft and Roosevelt
policies OF national progression and
shall work for the enactment OF those
local measures, which will enlarge the
powers of the people of Colorado to
act for themselves in matters pertain
ing to state government.
The Republican party has been the
party of advancement for the past so
years. All beneficial measures that
have been enacted nationally have
come through our party and its record
in the several states shows that 1t
has been the organization through
which the individual states have made
their greatest advancement, therefore
| believe 1t to be for the best interests
of Colorado that our party shall be
entrusted with the administration OF
state affairs.
81 believe with former President
Roosevelt that every interest is en-
titled to the same protection which is
accorded to every Individual SO long
as 1t conforms to the law"
The man who has the power to act
is to be judged. not by his words, but
by his acts, and by his words insofar
as they agree with his acts.
This principle uttered by former
President Roosevelt early this year,
expresses my view and 1t can be ap-
piled to the administration OF Presi-
dent Taft. His acts can certainly be
compared favorably with. not only his
promises, but the promises Of his
party in the platform upon which he
was elected. The results President
Taft has actually achieved justify all
rro-election pledges. II l am chosen
chief executive OF this state, l shall
endeayor to secure the enactment OF
laws that will advance Colorados in
terests. commercially, politically and
morally. l believe state government
should progress the same as any 9TH
er institution, but that progression
must be along the right lines always
