Mesa County Politics.

Mesa county was the only county
in the state wnere the "machine'' at
tempted to foist unfair presidential
primaries upon the voters. In other
counties not only was each precinct
given delegate representation ac-
cording to the wishes of the voters,
but the state delegation was divided
in proportion to the number of votes
received by the various candidates.
Aand Furthermore, if we are not mis-
taken, that was the plan of division
when the "old gang" was in control
so that the minority as well as the
majority was always allowed repre-
sentation. Truly reform politics will
soon be in need of a new houseclean-
ing in Mesa county. unless the re-
form leaders are changed, or the
rank and file is able to enforce a
change in tactics.-The Clifton Sue

GRIFFITH MAY
BLIGHT HOPES
Of DOUKhObORS
Religious Fanatics, Intent on Coming
to Colorado to Colonize. May Be
Refused Because of the 0pin-
ions of Our Ben"

Attorney General Ben Griffith has
been busy this week between a con-
vention blighting the hopes of a re-
ligious sect which hoped TO migrate
from the chilly plains of Canada TO
the more equable climate of Colorado.
Moreover, they were suffering in
the dominion from lack of religious
freedom, which they hoped to find
in more liberal quantity IN this part
of the union
The people in question are the
DouknoDors, peculiar aggregation
of fanatics whose marital irregular
tiles and penchant for the public
view of the nude has made them in
creasingly unpopular in Canada.
They applied recently to Commits
sioner Paddock of the bureau of i'm
migration for Information about this
state and some of the questions were
of legal nature, and Our Ben" was
called on to answer them.
"Will we be allowed to marry ac-
cording to our own rites and be-
liefs?' is one of the questions which
the attorney general hesitated in an
swering.
81 would have to know more about
your. marriage ritual before answer
ing" was the reply.
Would we have to serve in the
army" was. another question which
seemed to bother the Doukhobors.
Every male person between the
ages OF is and 45 years is subject
to state militia service, excepting
ministers of the gospel. You will
have to inquire of the United States
attorney relative to federal service
and exemption from such service,
wrote the attorney general.
Can aliens hold title to land in
Colorado? Should we come to Colo
rado, would we have to become cit
liens of the United States?"
Those were the only questions that
were answered satisfactorily to the
Doukhobors. for they were told that
hey could hold title TO property, and
that they would not have to become
nGturaliZed.
is to their religious practices, the
attorney general refused to commit
himEelf, saying that he knew too lit
tie abou their beliefs to assure them
thai ey would be allowed the lib
er of practiclng whatever rites or
:; gina or ceremonials they chose.

Can THE GOVERNOR
VETO SUCH MEASURE?
-PEARCE SAYS NO

. May the governor of the state g
!, of Colorado veto a constitution =
= al amendment, initiated and {,
: passed by the legislature for 3
3 submission to the people? 3
!, :, = I.ss sGISSS
Most assuredly he may not, thinks
Secretary of State James B. Pearce.
But he did. And now the secre-
tary, whose duty it is TO submit pro-
posed constitutional amendments, de-
sires to know what effect, if any, the
veto had on house bill No. 10 of the
last legislature. The question has
been put up to the attorney general.
The constitutional amendment was
contained in house bill No. 10, which
provides that all fees be turned into
the county treasury by an amend
ment to section 10 of article IA of
the state constitution. In vetoing
the measure, Governor Shafroth SAID
the said legislation was authorized
to do practically the same thing by
section 5 OF article IA, ana added:
The only effect is to change the
constitution so as to require each Of
icer to pay all fees into the county
treasury, and get back his whole sal
AIRY if payable out of the general
fund, or, if payable out of the fees,
such part of the fees as may satisfy
the salary, instead OF as now provid-
eddy law, that he should pay over TO
the treasurer all fees in excess of his
salary. | do not believe that the
change, being so slight, would justi-
fy the expense of submitting such
constitutional amendment to the peo-
ple.'
While the secretary of state feels
certain that the proposed constitu-
tional amendment must be submitted
regardless of the governors attached
veto, he wants legal opinion.
The attorney generals office is au-
thority for the statement that the
governor does not possess the veto
power over proposed constitutional
amendments, but has not given out
an opinion as to what effect the at
tached veto may have had directly
or indirectly upon the proposed
amendment.

MOTORCYCLE BURNS UP.
Rural Mail Carrier Has Narrow
Escape-Mail is Destroyed.

Lawrence Campbell, mail carrier
on route No. met with a peculiar
circumstance on Tuesday morning
which resulted in his motorcycle be-
ing burned and with it his mail sack
containing about 100 pieces of mail.
Lawrence had gone only about two
miles on his route when his machine
encountered a bump in the road
which caused the gasoline tank to
slop over and the gas striking the
hot engine caused blaze to start
Immediately. The rider had no time
whatever to save his mail as the fire
was between him and the mail sack
and he had barely time to stop the
machine and get himself out of
danger. He says the mail sack was
the first thing to burn. The motor
cycle valued at $3.50 was completely
destroyed. An automobile was tele-
phoned for and took him the rest
of the way around his route. The
accident happened near the farm of
l.. Davenport Globe.

The Eighth District.

The nomination of Laughlin at Mt.
Ayr as the progressive candidate for
congress in this district means the
sure election of McGinnis, the demo-
cratic nominee. At the last election
Towner received 19,54S votes and
Stuart 1866. Towner's plurality
was 1888. Towner's record in con-
gress is not satisfactory to large
portion of the republicans and it
was very doubtful whether he could
be elected in any event this year. In
fact the democratic politicians have
predicted his defeat from the start.
Laughlin is popular man, and an
aggressive fighter and he will cut the
republican vote in about two equal
parts. McGinnis is a fine campaign
er, a clean man and he will hold
the solid democratic vote and will
also draw largely from the republi-
can vote.
Under these conditions it is i'm
possible for Towner to win.
The American predicts that Nc
Ginnis will get about 10000 votes
in the district and the other 10000
will be about equally divided be-
tween Towner and ghlin.-Cres-
