so THAT THE PEOPLE MAY
KNOW.

In answer TO the question why The
Statesman. which publishes personal
and social news without cost. makes
a charge for the publication of the
guests at parties, wedding presents
and the like. the editor wishes to eS
plain that the paper cannot discrim-
mate between those with short lists
and those with long lists without
making enemies. Yet it is evident
that lists embracing fifty and hun
dred names are an imposition upon
our good intentions. Therefore a
charge is made for publishing lists,
ranging from mere nothing for small
lists to considerable for large ones.

Twenty-Third Year


The maneuvers during the week
ending Sunday were very interesting

listed men and officers. There were

something new to even the oid-timer

of the main column, guiding 1t with
the aid of a map. Heretofore only
officers carried maps and the enlisted
men had to constantly look back ana
listen for signals from the advance
guard commander. Time has changed
everything.
Non-commissioned officers are now
required TO do many things that only
officers did before and during the
Spanish. American war. Five years

knew how to use any kind of range

There are some men in Colorado
who are worth while for themselves
apart from any prestige they have as
members and leaders OF organiza-
tions. II this year it shall come to
pass-and it seems likely to do so
that the two old uarties will be
thrown into confusion by the birth of
new party, the man rather than the
party will be the nope of the state
more so than before. In such event
The Statesman points out Senator
Thomas j. McCue, as one worth
watching. Being man of approved
worth. whose private business and
public career alike have shown him
a rare combination of good sense and
executive ability, he will be in strik-
ing contrast to the mere politician
who depends upon the promises and
deals made possible by coherent po-
litical organization. The one can
stand when the strife of battle has
thrown into disorder the aignments
of party machinery because he de-
perds upon himself. his own charac-
ter, lis own foresight, his own

party and should he get the plum. he
viii be one of the substantial things
to which that party can point with

He will be remembered as one OF
the men whose name was prominent
ly mentioned in the last legislature
e. l. T.
man who sprang into the public eye
in the Seventeenth General Assembly
by trying to get the Democratic ma
jority to temper its new legislation
with common sense. He is the man
that Speer Democracy besought to
accept the nomination for mayor. In
short he 10 a great big man and
whether aided or Kindred by his
party. he is force to be reckoned
with in Colorado.
While not attempting to say what
the outcome of his candidacy for the
nomination will be, or what party
may win in the election. the fellow
that beats Tom McCue will have to
hustle and will know that he had a
race A man whose word is always
kept. man whose Judgment is al
WAYS exercised before he acts. man
who is Willing to earn the good will
of the public by loyal service in its
behalf, is rare. This man is of that
type. and whether his political views
please or displease. he is worth
knowing. With Tom McCue in the
governors chair we can rest assured
of sound government. consistent. con-
structive and progressive within the
bounds of common sense. He is an
asset of the Democratic party in
Colorado.

SPEAKER CHAMP CLARK
Is STEADILY GAINING

In many of the press accounts
giving the number of delegates that
have already been instructed for
the different candidates, it has ap-
peared that Speaker Clark has only
five delegates from Oklahoma. This
erroneous impression Is probably
due to the misunderstanding that
Oklahoma under the reappOrtion-
ment bill enacted by the last ses.
sion of Congress, gives OklahomG
three additional members Of Con
gress. Oklahoma will have 20
votes in the national convention, OF
which 10 will be for Clark. This
number, with the SO from Missouri
instructed, and the 90 Kan
sas delegates now assured, will
make the Speakers strength &C in
stead of 81 as stated.
