II. A. HICKS BRINGS ANOTHER
SUIT AGAINST w. J. sTULI
FOR TWENTY THOUSAND.

Since removing to Denver H. A.
Hicks has developed into quite a
humorist. Last week he filed suit in
the district court against the editor
of the Observer for alleged defama-
tion of character in an article print
ed in the paper in the issue of the
7th inst. This week the writer was
served with another summons in
another suit that has been brought
by Mr.. Hicks for $4,000, making a
total in the two suits of $4,000.
The complaint in the suit filed this
week Is the same as that in the suit
filed last week,the only difference be-
ing, the complaint embodies the arti-
Gle appearing in the Observer of last
week. In the Observer last week pub.
lication Of the complaint was given,
with short Introductory.
Mr.. Hicks contends that the publ.
cation of the complaint last week "by
the said defendant Of and concerning
this plaintiff, was and is false, mali
cious and defamatory."
AAS AANSAocAc POI ~ Va luO WhOiS I'll
fair is that Mr.. Hicks wants sec, 900
damages for that which was publish
ed last week, and a verbatim COPY of
the complaint was sent by Mr.. Hicks
to the Weekly Register-CaL (be-
fore service was had on the defeu-
dant) SO that that paper could pub.
lish the entire cause of action. His
reason for doing this must have
been that he was of the impression
that the Observer would not publish
the complaint.
In his last suit Mr.. Hicks has add.
ed another to his array of counsel.
This is L. ]. Williams, and makes
| the number of attorneys Mr.. Hicks
has engaged, five. The defendant has
| retained John T. Bottom, of Denver,
and James NJ. Seright, of this city.
Others may be engaged, should not

thing they could hardly believe. Ike,
as he was familiarly known, was
always looked upon as being an easy
going, care-free individual and he was
the last one that anyone would think
would kill himself. Nothing seemed
to worry him and in financial matters
it seemed to be his policy to let
the other fellow worry. He always az
peared jovial and was a pleasant fel-
low to converse with. A more ac-
commodating individual was never in
the community. II necessary he would
put himself at much inconvenience to
favor friend. Poor Ike, like most
Of us. had his faults, but he had
many good qualities which in large
measure overshadowed these. We,
personally, are sorry that he is gone,
and shall ever feel a deep sympathy
for his wife and daughter, upon whom
the hardest blow is dealt.

for the Democratic state convention
to meet in the Denver auditorium on
Wednesday, September 14th. 1t was
originally intended that the conven-
ton Should be held September 1.-THE
earliest possible date under the law.
but it was later learned that the
Auditorium could not be secured FOR
that date. No other hall was avail
able large enough to accommodate
l, 100 people, hence the change.
Simultaneous with the convention
call came the proclamation of Gov
ernor Shafro.h summoning the lesis-
lature to meet in extraordinary ses-
sion on Tuesday, August 9thi The call
provides for consideration Of the ini-
tiative and referendum, headless bal
lot, primary bill, bank guaranty, pub
lie service commission and railway
commission. Accompanying the pro-
clamation was a message to the legis-
lators and the public, in which the
governor stated his reasons for call
ing an extra session and asked sup
port from the people in having the
proposed measures enacted.
Since the call was issued several
members of the legislature who had
opposed an extra session on general
principles have announced themselves
in favor Of at least a portion Of the
bills, and there now seems no doubt
that the more important will receive
the necessary support. While there
are few Democratic members who
have honestly and consistently oppos
ed many Of the popular direct legis'
lation measures, it is generally con
ceded that for the good Of their par
ty they will act with the majority
when the time comes. There seems
to be absolutely no foundationl for the
rumor that an attempt will be made
to adjourn Immediately after the ses
sion convenes, although this would
have possibly been the program had
