COLORADO DEMOCRAT P.ANkS
Reaffirm Pledges for Radical Legisla-
ture, Now Pending.

Denver, Colo, Sept. 15.-As result
of the narrow margin of only thirteen
votes by Wlich John F. Shaffroth was
renominated for governor over DR..
B. / Jeffel son by the Democrat
state convention last night it is eX-
pected that there will be some trading
between the Shaffroth and Jefferson
factions today ca the nominations
still pending. These include lieuten-
ant governor, secretary of state, attir-
ney general, treasurer, auditor, super
intendent of educs ton and one mem
Der of the state railway commission.
Pledges of radical legislation con-
tanned in the state platform of 1908,
for the redemption of which the legis-
lature was summoned into eXtraordi-
nary session by Governor Shaffroth
last month and the greater part of
which the Legislature is still consider
ing are reaffirmed in the platform to
be voted upon by the democratic state
convention here today
The platform approves the action Of
Governor Shaffroth in calling the extra
session of the legislature, commends
that body for having submitted to the
people a constitutional amendment for
initiative and referendum and calls
upon the legislators to enact at this
session the remaining platform
pledges" namely the direct primary,
the headless ballot, the bank guaranty
and railroad commission laws.
United States Senator Simon Gug-
genheim is denounced. After COM
mending the Colorado democratic dele
cation in both branches of congress,
the platform calls attention to "the
marked contrast between their rec
ords and that of the senior senator,
Simon Guggenheim, who voted to rob
the people to enrich the corporations
and trusts with which he is allied"
/ The Payne Aldrich tariff law is
denounced as a revision upward in the
interest of the trust in violation of
the official repeated promises of the
republican presidential candidate" and
a prompt and thorough revision of the
tariff as demanded by the last demo-
cratic national convention, is urged.
Conservation of natural resources,
state and national, in manner which
will protect the rights of future gene
rations is commended, but the plat
form declares I'VE are unalterably
opposed to the bureaucracy and arbi'
trary regulations which work hard
ship upon the homesteader and the
miner and retard the development OF
the state"
A law abolishing the smelter trust
and regulating smelter charges is de
manded in the interests of both mine
operators and miners

THAT WASHINGTON PRIMARY.
May Take Several Days to Figure Out
Who Has Won Nominations.

Seattle, Sept. 15.-Several days may
pass before it is known who is NOM
mated for congress on the republican
ticket in the First Washington district.
There were five candidates and the
primary law provides that in such
cases the voter shall mark on the bal
lot his first and the second choice. If
no candidate receives 40 percent of
the vote cast the first and the second
choice votes shall be added, the can
didates receiving the highest number
of votes in totals so obtained shall be
the nominees.
In King county Representative VIII
liam f. Humphreys, standpatter, ran
700 votes behind Thomas p. Revelle,
insurgent, and received only 80 per-
cent of the total vote of the county.
Humphreys carried all the other coun-
ties in the district, but it is believed
he fell below 40 percent of the first
votes and the second choice votes will
| therefore be counted.
Humphreys got few second choice
votes, but Revelle was a general sec
ond choice favorite.

ing quite fast enough said the gov
ernor, who seemed to have abandon
ed hope of getting the nomination
away from Mayor Dahlman.
THE recount will go on through the
rest of Douglas county" added the
governor
Mr.. Shallenberger denied that, as
rumor had 1t last evening, he had been
in conference during the afternoon

mayor

he land | understand that Mr.. Hitch
cock is out of the city"
The governor was asked If he in
tended to bring legal proceedings to
throw out the sixty votes against him
in the fifth precinct of the first ward,
where only one judge signed the bal.
lots.
so far" he replied, ut would not
change the result to throw out those
votes. and unless the further progress
of the recount proves me greater
gains, legal proceedings on the vote
in this precinct would be quite use
less"
The governor returned to Lincoln on
an evening train. Governor Shallen-
berger has gained three votes in the
recount in South Omaha and increas-
ed his total gain in Douglas county
so far to seventy-fve. Only sixteen
precincts remain to be counted, two
in South Omaha and fourteen in the
county.
The governors recount to date in
the entire state, Douglas county in
cluded, has given him a net gain of
16 votes At the close of the official
canvass in the state Mayor Dahlman's
majority was 29S.
Deducting the governors gain in
the recount, Dahlman still retains a
lead of 1872. If the governor succeeds
in having the fifth precinct of the first
ward thrown out, on the ground that
only one judge signed the ballots, he
will get in an additional sixty votes.

and enough drain on nerves and sym.
patty in faithful minister's life ~
wear him out were it not for the sus-
tanning grace of God and the love of
helping others, the Rev. Oliver Huckel
today at the Associate Congregational
church, strongly advised young men
not to take up the ministry as a pro-
fession or a career.
81 would advise no young man to
enter the ministry unless he feels that
he must" continued Doctor Huckel.
Even then, let his conviction be con-
firmed by his friends and the church.
Let no man take up this work as a
mere career or profession. He will be
sadly disappointed. Let him dare not
take up the work unless his motives
be the purest and his spirit ready for
the sacrifice. 1t is not an easy life"

DR.. COOKS FINANCIAL BACkEH
HUNTING FOR RECORDS.
COOK is SAID TO BE WITH HIM
The Hans Eeede, the Steamer That
Brought Cook Back to Civilization,
Brings News of Bradley's Trip to
Greenland-Eskimo Loyal to Cook.

Copenhagen, Sept. 15.-The Danish
day with the news that John r. Brad.
ley, the financial hacker of DR.. Fred
erick A. Cooks north pole expedition,
was on his way to Etah to secure the
much talked of records and instru-
ments which Cook has said he left at
that eskimo settlement northeast of
Greenland. The captain of the steam
err thinks that Cook is with Bradley,
but gives no particular reason for his
belief.
The Hans Egede, which is the vessel
on which the explorer travelled to civ
ilization, fell in with a yacht at God
haven, a Danish settlement on the
south coast of Disco island, Greenland,
and in the conversations between the
masters learned that Bradley was
aboard the craft.
Eskimos Say Cook Got There.
The polar hunt promoter admitted
his identity and explained that he was
bound for Etah to recover whatever
had been left there by DR.. Cook lie
refused, however, either to deny u
confirm the report that he was accom-
panied by the explorer.
The government vessel also brings
the information that two missionaries
who were working among the eskinos
who accompanied Cook on his eXpedi
ton say that the eskimos insist thai
the doctor reached the north pole, as
he claims, prior to its discovery by
Commander Feary.

SOME FANCY AtRUPLANING
tombstone and Curtiss Cut Such Ca.
pers Wright Fears for Them.

Boston, Sept. 15.-Fancy aeroplan-
ing was on the program and Walter
Brookins as the star performers. They
demonstrated their skill with the BIZ
planes until WILDER Wright feared for
their safety and ordered them to de-
sist. Johnstone's favorite act was to
indulge in steep glideS, shutting his
engine almost completely off, then sud
denly shooting down until he almost
touched the ground. Then would FOL
low a series of ditch rolls.
Brookins performed the most daring
feat of the afternoon in making a IA
nous short turn, standing his biplane
almost on end as he made complete
circle in scarcely more than six sec
onds. His machine reached an angle
of more than 50 degrees at times.
Glenn II. Curtiss, with high power
motor In his Albany flier, and Charles
f. Willard in a Curtiss machine COM
pleted several circuits of the course in
speed race and Curtiss won, made
the best time he has shown at this
meeting, covering five and quarter
miles in minutes 1875 seconds.
Grahame-White, the Englishman,
was out in the Bleriot monoplane and
sailed out we'll over the city and har'
Dor.
The meet will close today with a
number of contests. Glenn H. Curtiss
will race White five and a quarter
miles for $4,000 cup offered by the
Harvard Aeronautic society.

A POLAR BEAR WHIPPED 20 MEN
After Ten Hours of Fighting the New

York Zoo Keepers Used Chloroform.
New York, Sept. 15.-Silver King,
the giant polar bear that Paul j. Raj
ney and Harry Whitney lassoed in
the Arctic and presented to the city,
Is in his new home in the Bronx zoo.
But it took ten hours of fighting, the
work of twenty men and four pounds
of chloroform to get him there.
Take it from William T. Hornaday,
director, the white tiger put up hard
er fight than mad elephant, and the
executive staff of the zoo, not to speak
of the laborers who had been uncom-
fortably close to Silver Kings great
purple mouth and his wicked fangs,
felt much better when they had him
safely a prisoner behind iron bars and
two-inch planks.
1t was the toughest days work Mr..
Hornaday and his men have tackled
in many a year of handling wild ami
mails. There were moments in the ten
hours when they fancied they would
have to take the great bear dead, not
alive. Until Ray Dittmars, the cur
ator, came back to the city island
wharf after burning the roads in his
hunt for chloroform, the bear battied
every trick of strength and stratagem
Dittmars came tearing back in his
motor car just in time to prevent a
City Island policeman from turning a
magazine rifle on the captive.

A fReNzlEO FIN Angler
Hop Dealer Juggled Loans and Kept
Banks Coin in the Air.

New York, Sept. 15.-Adolph Roth
barth, of the firm of Martin Rothbarth
and company, hop dealers, with Offices
in London, Frankfort and st. Peters
burg, pleaded guilty to the larceny of
$4,000 from the Mercantile National
bank and was held for trial in an equal
amount of bail.
Although the specific sum named in
this complaint is only $4,000, the &C.
tual amount this bank alone has lost
will come to more than 100000, ac-
cording to the district attorney. The
small bail was asked because the pris-
oner admitted his guilt. The money
went into speculation, according to
Rothbarth.
II was squeezed in the panic of
1907" he said, land began to get loans
from the banks. 1t was so easy that l
kept on"
F.. S. Chenk, president of the Lib
erty National bank, said: I'VE have
not thought it necessary to prosecute
in view of the action taken by the
Mercantile National bank, but none
the less we also are out $4,000. We
shall take action to get back as much
of it as we can from the firm"
Three other banks are said to be in
volved. 1t is said by juggling loans
among them Rothbarth was able to
keep as much as 100000 in the air at
once. He could not give the bail de-
manded and had to spend the night in
the TOmbs.

Lorimer, Cannonism and Insurgency"
Are Issues at Stake.

Chicago, Sept. 15.-Alleged corrup-
ton in the Illinois legislature revealed
in the trial of Lee ONeil Browne,
charged with bribery in the election
of William Lorimer to the United
States senate; Jackpot politics, and
a plea for "vindcation' on the part
of men whose names were brought in
to the trial are the chief interests in
the primary election here today. In
most of the congressional districts in
surgency is an issue. The primary is
the first under Illinois third primary
law.
Congressman Mann, chairman of the
committee on interstate and foreign
commerce, a stauncn supporter OF
Speaker Cannon, has two adversaries,
both running on insurgent platforms.
So has Henry S. Boutelle in the Ninth
district. Congressman Foss, also
aligned with the regulars, has a con-
test on again an insurgent candidate.
Leaders of all parties predict that
the vote will be less than 60 percent
