A statement of the political
situation relative to the renomi-
nation of President Taft. from our
two committeeman, for Clear
Creek county of the Republican
State Committee was published
in the Denver Republican on Tues
day morning. The mem bers of
the State committee, from this
county are Messrs Ben Catron of
Georgetown and Royal r. Graham
of Idaho Springs. They speak
out candidly and without any
suffering or impediment in their
words. Mr.. Catron says. "The
Taft administration is notable
for is clean, efficient and upright
conduct and l believe I voice the
sentime ent of Clear Creek county
when say it is in favor of his re-
n ,mination. Colorado's interests
are we'll cared for by Taft I'd
there has been nothing in his ad-
ministration to be condemned.
Clear Creek county wants a con-
tinuation OF such good govern
ment and feel certain when l say
it is strongly in favor of Taft's
renomination.'.
Mr.. Graham is candidate as
one the delegates at large to the
National Republican Convention.
His statement has no uncertain
sound as to where he stands
nd on this statement he
will make his campaign. 1t is
unequivocating. He should
have: the cordial and en-.
thusiastie support of the re-
publicans of county. He says
aside from a strong objection
to the third term proposition.
Clear Greek county as a whole
has had enough of an aduinistra-
tion that sanctions "Pinchotism
and if on no other score, would
support Taft in his forest reserve
attitude, There is much to COM
mend in Taft's administration and
nothing to condemn and I believe
I am conservative when I say two
thirds of Clear Greek county
stands for Taft"

der the sun may happen. 1t is prac-
ticaliy certain that Hoffman has been
eliminated, but no one can tell what
else may take place. Although the
Taggart fellows are still claiming the
election for Korbly, there is in the air
a spirit of compromise between the
two warning elements, and there is a
good possibility that such a plan may
be followed. and some other man than
either Korbly or Hoffman be chosen.
Just how this will come about how
ever. if its comes at all, cannot be told
at this time. but there are some moves
on the checker board of the game tina.
indicate that II may happen.
No one can tell who may be the COM
promise candidate. He may be an IN
dianapolis man. or he may come from
some other part of the state. But the
fight has reached the point where the
Taggart men would give direct
affront to Governor Marshall by elect
ing Korbly, and the antis would give
direct affront to the Taggart CROWD IL
it should happen to elect Hoffman or
any other man equally as prominent in
, the anti movement as Hoffman. The
Taggart people are objecting to Hoff-
man because they say he is too close
. to Steve Fleming. They say IL he was
+ l.
ed by Fleming on the other hand
! the ants say that KorbIy would be
completely under the domination of
Taggart and Crawford Fairbanks, the
Terre Haute brewer. who. according to
a statement made not long ago by W.
H. O'Brien, state auditor is not a
Democrat but is in politics simply for
business reasons. Fairbanks poses as
a Democrat. and is generally accepted
as the real power behind the Taggart
throne.
+ So. in view of this situation. and in
view of the strained relations existing
between the two factions. the idea of a
compromise has taken some root
among the politicians. Some of tha
conservative Democrats. who are look :
ing for a Moses to lead them out OF
their wilderness. believe that such a
plan would AFFORD the means or their
salvation.
another objection to the candidacy OF
both Hoffman and Korbly on another
ground, and that is that both are re-
garded as brewery candidates. They
say that Korbly would be the repre-
sentative OF the Terre Haute brewing
company. which stands opposed to
legal regulation of the liquor tram
and is therefore Objectionable. And
they say that Hoffman would represent
Fleming. another brewer. but one who
does favor legal regulation of saloons
and whose organization. the Brewers
Association of Indiana is backing 9
movement to arrest and prosecute law
violating saloon keepers. They say
that If one side is willing to withdra y
it's brewery candidate. and thus simpii-
fy the situation.
