PLATFORM OF
COLORADO REPUBLICANS

The following is the platform adopt
ed by the republican assembly in Den
yer last Wednesday,:
We, the republicans of Colorado, in
assembly convened, reafirm our allie
glance to the republican party, its prin-
eiples, policies and candidates.
We heartily approve and adopt the
platform of party principles announced
by the republican national convention
at Chicago and indorse the action of
the Colorado delegation at that con
vcntion.
We applaud the patriotism and in
dorse and approve the craftsmanship
and progressive accomplishments If
William Howard Taft as president of
the United States, and we hereby in
struct the electors chosen at this con
vention to cast their votes for him
for president of the United States.
The republican party has the integ
rity, wisdom and courage to meet all
issues and problems in our government
al affairs and to settle them properly
and wisely in the interest of the whole
people.
The republican party of Colorado is
now, as it always has been, a constit-
uent part of the republican party of
the United States as now defined and
recognized by the national platform Of
the republican party. The party has
always welcomed within its ranks the
fullest and freest discussion of all pub
lie questions and by such freedom of
discussion has developed a spirit of
progress enabling it to meet and solve
safely for the people every question at
the proper time. In this spirit this
assembly extends an invitation to all
loyal citizens to join in promoting the
welfare and advancement of the peo.
pie through the republican party.
We admonish the voters of Colorado
that the proper protection of the in.
drstries of this state can only be hoped
for through the efforts of senators and
representatives in congress who believe
in protective tariff as an economic
principle adapted to the needs of the
whole nation, and We condemn the dem.
ocrntic representatives of Colorado in
congress for sacrificing the industrial
interests of this state for political an |
partisan purposes.
We heartily commend the Hon. Sim
on Guggenheim for his efficient ana
admirable discharge of his duties as
United States senator from Colorado
His careful and intelligent supervision
of national legislation affecting all the
industries of this state has marked
nun as statesman of sincere loyalty
TO the people and wisdom of high char
acter
We condemn the extravaganza, in
efficiency and incompetency of tn,
past two democratic state administra-
tious. Democratic officials assumed
charge of the affairs of this state with
luu treasury ana are now leaving :
the treasury in depleted condition
We pledge the republican party to m
economical, honest and business like
administration of public affairs
lnasnluch as the laws of Colorado
now provide that the platform of the
party shall be announced by its nomi-
nees at the general primary election,
this assembly does hereby pledge those
charged with this duty to the adoption
of a declaration of principles which
Will without equivocation or evasion
meet and state the position of the re
publican party upon every vital issue
now confronting the people of Colo

Portland. Oct. 25.-During the w.
c. T. L. convention here yesterday,
copies of brochure purporting to
have been written by DR.. Clarence
True Wilson of Kansas City, superin-
tendent of the temperance depart
ment of the Methodist Episcopal
church, and declaring that in states
where equal suffrage exists "the cause
of temperance has been set back 20
years" We're literally circulated am
ong the delegates. Informal indigna-
ton meetings have been frequent but
it was not until yesterday that for
NAL action was taken by the con-
vention. Practically ever speaker al
luded to the brochure. some of them
in caustic terms.
DR.. Wilson'S right as an official of
the Methodist Episcopal church to
argue the subject of equal suffrage
was questioned and the convention
voted to file a protest with the blsh-
ops of that church, protesting against
DR.. Wilson's brochure and to send a
letter to Dr. Wilson which, it is stat
ed, declares that his pamphlet had
been seized "by the breweries' wher-
ever equal suffrage is an issue, to en-
compass its defeat"
Two addresses stood out promi-
nently yesterday for their pointed
ness. one was by Mrs, Emma l.

WAYS DEVISED TO
MAKE LOCAL, BAND
A PERMANENT ONE

In an effort to make the Roundup
Cowboy band a permanent institu-
ton, one that will remain organized
and ready to play upon demand
throughout the twelve months of the
year, the Commercial association and
the Roundup board of directors,
through a joint committee, are map
ping out a campaign for the raising
of the funds necessary to retain Di-
rector Chauncey Haines and to place
the band on a sound financial basis.
Their plan includes a solicitation
of monthly contributions from the
business men to pay the salary Of the
director and a series of winter con-
certs which will provide working
fund for the band.
In return for the support of these
two organizations and the business
men, the band will be expected to
show it's appreciation in such way as
it can and all of the members are
expressing a willingness to do so. Di-
rector Haines makes assurance that
during the summer months, weekly
street concerts will be given and
that the band will be ready on all
occasions. such as a Memorial day
parade or when a visiting delegation
of commercial men come to the city,
to play without charge.
The members of the committee take
the attitude that the band, as it now
exists. is a valuable asset TO the city
both as an advertisement and as a
factor in local occasions which de-
mand music. They appreciate the sit
uation which confronts the band and
they are coming to the rescue with
their moral support.

wholly inadequate for the occasion.
You are not merely respected and val

YOU are also our friends and broth
ers."
Lauding the private and public rec
ords of the two guests, the colonel
paid high compliment to the work
done by both men and said both
would leave monuments bearing tes-
timony to their good work here. He
praised the business capacity and in
tegrity of Mr. Taylor and the long,
good service rendered the community
by DR.. Smith. He attributed the the
tabllshment of the eastern oregon
hospital TO the legislative measure of
which DR.. Smith as state senator was
the author In behalf of the Com
mercial club the colonel presented
the card cases and closed his re-
marks with expressions of regret that
visibly affected the men who were
honored and brought moisture to the
eyes of most of those within the
room.
]. p. Winter added further praises
and appreciation of the work by DR.
Smith and L. c. Taylor and a story
was told by Herbert Witter, a travel
ing man, who said the two men would
find a cordial welcome in Portland
which he heralded as the finest city in
the world.

stood amidst much cheering.

turned his gaze. tense silence pre-
vailed. At 1857 o'clock Justice Goff

swallowed hard. That was all.
When the last juror had answered,

low, firm voice. A court official
grought the questions to him written
on a slip of paper and as the prisoner
read them to himself. he replied:

Portland, Ore, Oct. 25.-(Special)
Thomas r. Marshall, in an address
before an audience of twenty-five
hundred, defended the democratic
doctrine of tariff for revenue only"
and made a sharp attack on Senator
Bourne whose contention that, if re-
elected, he would retain his present
important committee places, was
pronounced spurious, last night.
There are so many candidates for
United States senator from your state
that l have not been able to learn all
their Names said Mr.. Marshall
Marshall strongly endorsed the can
didacy of DR. Harry Lane and NJ. G..
Munley for United States senator and
representative, respectively, on the
ground that the democratic president
should be supported by a democratic
congress
Discussing the charge that the cleo
ton of a democratic president would
occasion a panic. Marshall said he
had lived through two panics, the
latter occurring during a republican
administration.
The only difference between the
soup houses during the Cleveland ad-
ministration and the Roosevelt ad-
ministration was that when Cleveland
was president the soup bones had
some meat on them. while in Roose-
velt's administration they yielded the
bones only.
They call us free traders, but this

tariff for revenue only. That is their
position. We have been 80 years in
building up a false system, and if
you would knock it down i'm a day
