anxious to get any prestige for their
candidates that might attach to Assem-.
bly, nominations.

Pueblo.-The issue placed before the
Democratic state assembly at Pueblo
by both speakers and candidates was
the reputation OF corporate influence.
1t arose in connection with the seat
ing of the regular Denver delegation
over the protest Of the Arnold-Pattcr-
son faction and was perpetuated as
nn issue in the primaries by the with.
drawal of Thomas lyman. warden OF
tho ctate pcn:tentiary. from the race
for the assembly nomination for gov
crnor on the ground that the body had
contravened national progressive prtn-
cplcs.
All day the question was impressed
upon the gathering until. at nearly 6
O'Clock. row came when the reg
ular Denver machine delegation was
seated by a sweeping vote. Again the
subject was foremost ut night with
Tynan's actions and as result. at
quarter of an hour after midnight the
body had not finished its business, and
was forced to adjourn until morning.
O'Donnell's name was not placed be-
fore the assembly, but in the evening
he induced the body to take an action
which many believe to be rcpudia-
ton Of its stand during the day.
He presented a resolution binding
all candidates nominated by the as
sembly to vote for an amendment Of
its primary law, which would do away
with the assembly feature. This was
passed, and it is felt by many to be
acquiescence by the body itself to the
charge that the assembly action does
not represent party sentiment.
