REPUBLICAN CONVENTION
WILL ELECT DELEGATES
AT COLORADO SPRINGS

The events of Feb. IL will always
stand out as completing one of the
greatest days for Republicanism in
the history of the party in this state.
Over $500 Republicans, representing
every county, every belief and every
principle in the party were in Dem
yer and together enjoyed the day.
To be sure, there were contests, and
at times personal feelings engendered
but when the day was over and the
individuals had time to consider the
| things accomplished, the personalities
| were forgotten and the Republicans
| returned to their homes feeling kind
lier one toward the other than they
did when they arrived. Some of them
| went back determined to do their best
for the denomination and election of
President Taft. Others returned fully
as determined to work increasingly for
former President Roosevelt for re-
election, but all returned home de-
termined that Republicanism, no mat
ter who shall be the standard-bearer,
shall win this fall.
The state central committee select
ed Colorado Springs and March 27 as
the date for the convention to select
delegates to the national convention.
1t also selected Denver and Aug. l as
the place and date for the assembly
which is to be held under the new
primary law. Both convention and
assembly will have nine hundred and
two delegates selected on a basis of
two at large for each county and one
for each one hundred and twenty-five
votes or major portion thereof cast for
John B. Stephen for governor, one
year ago last fall.

ANTI-DINCFOD

The Ministerial association of the
city, disgusted with the outlawry
which has been so frequent in the
past, under the name of dingfodism,
and being touched by the sight of the
annoyance caused good and respecta-
BILE people by the hazing practices of
a lot of smart Alecks who take ad-
vantage of every opportunity to ex-
hibit their asinine characteristics,
have passed the following resolution
and presented copy of the same to
the mayor, the chairman of the po-
lice committee of the city council, and
the city marshal.
"The Durango Ministerial associa-
ton desires to present to you this re-
quest which is resolution passed at
our last meeting, in the hope that ii
will meet with your hearty support.
"Since we, as ministers, perform
most of the marriage ceremonies, We
have consequently a special interest
in their observance. We therefore
feel justified in calling your atten
ton to the ruffianism and the vic
lation to the rights of persons which
are so often an accompaniment Il
our weddings. Feeling as we do tina
these occasions should be the time TO
the expression of the most tende
and friendly sentiments, and also tina
the rights of a citizen to the protec
ton Of the law against personal mo
lestation are the same at such tim
as at any other, we desire to call upol
you to give the fullest possible protec
ton, to such as request it, agains
trespass upon either property or per
sonal rights.
We would be pleased to hear from
you as to what you will be willing u
do for those who request protection
SO that we may inform parties wait
ing upon us as to just what their priv
ileges would be.
Awaiting your reply, we remain
Respectfully yours,
"THE DURANGO MINISTERIAL
ASSN, per G. +. Rassweiler."

The harmony banquet in the even

The harmony banquet in the even
ing was success from every view
point. Every chair had been sold and
at least three hundred more could
have been sold had the committee on
arrangements had any place to put
the banqueters. The galleries were
filed with those who could not se-
cure seats at the banquet table. Mu-
sic was furnished by local orchestra,
male quartet from Fort Collins and
a band of twenty pieces from Pue-
bio.
Toastmaster Devine devoted his ad-
dress to review of the state ad-
ministration under present conditions
as compared to it under Republican
rule. He denounced in vigorous Ian
guage the Democratic executive and
legislative officials for incompetency,
graft, corruption and failure to re-
deem their promises. Also held them
directly accountable for the present
financial situation in the state.
Senator Beveridge devoted his ad-
dress to discussion Of the Sherman
antitrust law, the tariff and child
labor. His was masterful presenta-
ton of the subject and he maintained
that the reforms which are needed in
these matters must in the end come
through the Republican party.
Not the least of the days events
was the meeting of the Republican
editors in the Palm room Of the Brown
hotel. One hundred and nineteen from
outside the city of Denver and pue-
bio gathered as the guests of the
Pueblo Chieftain, and after partaking
of five-course luncheon, were en-
tertained with addresses by Mr.. T. II.
Devine, owner of the Chieftain, and
host at the occasion, and by Senator
Beveridge who spoke at some length
on Abraham Lincoln and American
Motherhood. He paid glowing trib-
ute to the Mothers of America, who,
during the war, stayed at home, at
tended to the farms, and buried the
dead returned for burial. Following
his address, occurred the annual cleo
tion of officers. 1t resulted as follows:
President, Guy U. Hardy, Canon City
Record; first vice president, Cliff
Wilder, Alamosa Courier; second vice
president, Robert B. Spencer, Fort
Morgan Times; secretary and treas
urer, Alva A. Swain, Pueblo Chief
tain.

COUNTING UP THEIR NoTcHEs

They are now counting the notches
on the stick-those managers Of
presidential booms who have any
notches to count. The Taft managers
are all in class by themselves in
that regard thus far. Champ Clark Is
counting two district delegates out or
the prairies of western Kansas, but

outbursts promise to stand forth as a
monument to the wild talk that has
characterized the presidential cam
