ATTENTION COLORADO
REPUBLICANS

The Republicans of the City of
Denver are making an earnest eff
fort to elect Dewey G. Bailey and
his associates on the Republican
ticket at this springs election.
They are trying to wrest the con-
troll of the city of Denver from the
hands of extravagant Democracy.
Pitted against them are two tickets.
One, the regular Democratic ticket
with machine of over twenty five
hundred city employees, The 9TH
er, the Citizens ticket, backed by
two newspapers whose valuations
were reduced by Henry j. Arnold,
when he was assessor, and who is
now their candidate for mayor.
Each of the two tickets are COM
posed in the main of Democrats.
The success of either means that
the election machinery of the city
and county of Denver will be in
the hands of Democrats next fall
when the time comes to elect state
and national officials, together
with members of the general as.
sembly. While the two tickets
are fighting each other this spring,
they will be united at the fall cleo
ton. Republican success in Dem
yer now means Republican success
in Colorado next November.
The fight that is being waged
against the Republican ticket is
an unfair one. The last demo-
cratic Legislature enacted a regis
tration law which reinstates the
"big-mitt" in all of its power in
that city. Under that law each
head OF a household can register
the members of his own household
together with his servants. In ad-
dition, every voter can register
three other voters in his precinct.
In addition, the registration lists
are not purged from the preced-
ing election. The result is a total

yer are making a fight that must
have direct bearing on the re-
suit in Colorado when we elect our
Governor and other state officials.
If you know someone who is

you know someone who is enthus-
iastic, encourage that enthusi asm
If every Republican in Colorado
will either write or telephone a
half dozen of his personal friends
in Denver, the effect will be the
success of that ticket in state and
national affairs, SO far as Colorado
is concerned, next fall. Do this
today. Get in the game. Its our
fight as well as the fight of the
Republicans of Denver. Inciden-
tally, if you believe in Republican
principles and can possibly spare
the time and exsense, get on the
train, go to Denver and do some
personal work.
Democracy in Denver must be
overthrown and the "big.mitt"
registration law repealed. This
can only be accomplished through
Republican success.
Help us to get it.

SHERWAN'S DEATH GIVES
GEORGIAN SENATE GAVEL

In it's political aspect, the death of
Vice President James S. Sherman
means, among other things, that Unit
ed States Senator Augustus O, Bacon
of Georgia, will preside over the de-
alterations of the senate as president
pro tempore for the remainder of the
present congress.
Since the death of Senator William
p. Frye of Maine the senate, because
of the strained relations between GER
tain regular and progressive Repub
lican senator's, has been unable to elect
a president pro tempore for more than
a day or so at a time.
Not enough progressives could be
rallied to the candidacy of Senator Gal
linger, of New Hampshire, to put him
in for the remainder of the session, nor
could sufficient progressive Republican
strength be added to Senator Bacon s
Democratic vote to put him in for the
life of the congress
In these circumstances. the senate.

one day and Gallinger the next, at such
times as the vice president could not
be in his place himself
Shortly before congress adjourned, a
sort of compromise was effected where
by the remainder Of the congress was
divided, and 1t was agreed that CAL
linger should serve continuously as
president pro tempore for half the re-
naming time, and Bacon for the othet
half.
The New Hampshire senator has
served his allotted half, and the senior
senator from Georgia will, therefore, be
the presiding officer of the United
States senate from the time the con-
gress meets in December until 1t ex-
pires by limitation on March 4, 1913.
The presidency pro tempore Of the
United States is rated an office Of great
distinction and honor and invariably
is conferred upon some senator of high
standing and long and acceptable serv-
ice
1t carries no extraordinary leglsla-
tive powers, however.

BURKE FARMERS ON
TRIAL AT MACON IN
WHITE SLAVE CASES

MACON, GA, Oct. 31.-Clarence A..
Rhodes and Walter E. Rhodes, brother
planters of Burke county, and married
men, and Walter Pound, their farm
overseer, are being given a preliminary
hearing here today before United States
Commissioner Erwin on the charge of
violating the Federal white slave" law.
1t is charged that they transported Su-
sic James, Lulu Addison and Ola Fra
zier from Bath S. c., through Augusta,
to their plantation.
The government contends and two
of the young women say, they were
kept on the Rhodes farm for four weeks
and not allowed to communicate with
their relatives. The girls say they met
the men in Bath, S. c., by appointment
and rode with them in an automobile
to Augusta, and later to Burke county
The evidence so far adduced shows
that Ola Frazier has lived with one of
the men as his wife, though not mar
ried to him, and that it was not her
first visit to the plantation

VALDOSTA, GA, Oct. S1.-Colonel
Charles S. Morgan. we'll known attor-
ney who was taken into custody a
week ago and confined in Jail awaiting
a hearing on a charge of lunacy. was
given his liberty on a writ of habeas
corpus before Judge J. G. Crawford, of
the city court He acted as his own
attorney and prepared the writ which
was heard by the Judge.
Colonel Morgan legged numerous
reasons as to why he was illegally de-
tanned. One of these was that three of
his relatives were not notified of the
action against him, as the law requires
another that w. A. Rudd who swore
out the warrant for his detention is
comparatively a stranger to him, and
mad no opportunity to know whether
or not the defendant is insane that he
believes Rudd's action was based on
hearsay, and that he was inspired by
parties prejudiced against the defend
ant, and that the swearing out of the
warrant for his arrest was not volun-
tary on Rudd's part. He also claimed
that the action against him was taken
without his knowledge, and that he was
arrested on the streets while going
about his business in a peaceable way
1t is understood that Colonel Nor
gan's release from custody on the ha-
beas corpus will not affect the hearing
in the Ordinary's court as to his mental
condition, which is scheduled for next
Monday. Ordinary Simms is disquali-
ned in the case and it is probable that
Judge Crawford will hear it.

that the law provides that the general

Declaring frankly that he had found
no evil conditions on his tour of every
club in the city yesterday, Chief of Po-
lice Beavers said today that he still
stands by his report against eight OF
the organizations. The ban on four OF
these was affirmed by the police COM
mittee of city council. The chiefs ban
on the other four was ignored and
charges of discrimination were aired in
city council.
Chief Beavers said that while he had
found no offensive conditions, such as
drunkenness or the selling of liquor to
women on his tour, he would say moth
ing as to the legal status of several of
the clubs. He said lie had reported
against the clubs in the first instance
because they had defed the city and
that condition still existed
