.:fhe Thursday night meeting was one
Of perfect harmony. Taft, LaFollette
and Roosevelt republicans met on an
equal basis and, forgetting all differ
81. dat rH
platform principles, went to work with
will to arrange a Lincoln Day pro.
gram that will please all Colorado re-
pubicans. The Union Republican club
had arranged with Senator Beveredge
to address a banquet which they were
preparing but they volunteered to
abandon their banquet and allow Sen
ator Beveredge to address the general
republican banquet. This was salts
factory to all in attendance and it was
agreed to have the Indiana senator rs
the principal. speaker. ,,,
81 see no reason, said Chairman
McDonsld, why there should be the
bhkubSot fulACAOAS0 dLhohe ASPeO>-'
over any question that cannot be ad-
justed through friendly rivalry at the
primaries. Thursday nights meeting
showed that they were all willing to
get together ON friendly basis ana
to come more than halfway. In the
appointment of, the various committees
/ have tried and believe haze recog-
nized all beliefs. If there is anyone
who is not satisfied, if he or she will
call my attention to any faction or b.
lief that is overlooked, I will rectify
the mistake.
IA condition exists in the city OF
Denver which merits the close attel-
ton of every republican in the state.
The election commission is composed
of two Patterson democrats, commonly
called "Citizens' party members and
one Speer democrat. The charter OF
the city of Denver gives each member
of the elections commission the right
to appoint one election judge for each
precinct in. the, city. The registration
law provides that the commission shall
select the election judges from lists
furnished by the. chairmen Of the two
political parties casting the highest
vote at the last state election. The
elections commission has announced
thAt 1t intends to follow, the charter.
