Borah tried mighty hard to be on the winning side. He guessed wrong for the simple reason tha. either side was the wrong side in the republican show. But Borah tried them both. He jumped from one to the other as fast as possible so as to be sure and land with the winners. It wasn't a question of principal with porah. It was just Borah.
 Now that sort of a man isn't very safe to have at the head of the new show. The republican party had bet ter just bill Cummins and Hughes and leave the grand and lofty tumbler out of the performance.

Official Paper
NOME, ALAskA, NOV. 1a 1918.

It is stated from Washington that certain statesmen of the republican party and the brilliantly advertised but defunct progressive party. gether- or with some sore headed democrats who evidently failed to get the plurns they were after. will unite under the leadership of Cummins of Iowa and Borah of Idaho and will. go forth un- der the title of republicans to do bat tie at the next election against the democrats.
 This would seem to eliminate the ever spectacular Teddy and 1t may or may not be a good thing to get him out of the political arena. He held the center of the stage for a long time and 1t may be just as we'll to bill some other attraction as the headliners at the new republicans n-progressive vaude- vile show.
 Cummins of Iowa Is n good man and a. solid man. So Is Hughes Of New York; another name mentioned In connection with the new turn. But why Boreh? Perhaps it is the intention of the party managers to put on an aero .batic stunt. If that Is the case Borah is the man to lead the new troupe. but that would eliminate Cummins and Hughes who up to the present time have not bene adept at turning flip. fops.
 The reorganizers of the republican party had better leave Borah off or the bill unless they lot him do little turn betweenl the acts of himself. One can never be sure of Borah. He might be one of the men in the pyra- mid for instance and just at the crit icai point In the performance Mir. T. wanderer Roosevelt might come stam- peding in through the door. throw his hot over the footlights and them We'll then as likely as not Borah would make grab for the hand that threw the hat and upset the whole blame show.
 About two months before the last republican national convention Borah was . strong administration man. That is he was for Taft. Then one day along come Roosevelt and threw his hat into the ring dnd Borah let so of Tafts coat tails and jumped right in on top of the hat from Oyster Bay and crow ed three times. Perhaps Mr. Bornh jumped and crowed without thinking what he was doing. Anyway 1t was not long until he began to get wise to the fact that he had let 90 of the Taft coat tails too soon. He had jump sd up and down on the Roosevelt hat uutjl hs had battered the thing up n good dsal more than did the nigger reginsnt when they marched over 1t soing to the front at San Juan Hfsl aad when he found that t was too much ost q shAps to- ever again bs

The verdict was returned at 10 o.
clock this morning.

of taking a case of such magnitude
from the jury said the judge, "but
examination of the evidence shows
the state has not supported the
charge made against the defendant
and has not shown that marriage
contract existed between Craig and
DR.. Knabe."
The verdict of the jury did not sur
prise the people here as it was gen

The judge admitted Mrs. Knabe
was victim of murder but said the
slayer remains mystery. Scores of
people in the court room crowded
about Craig, congratulating him and

PRESIDENT REFUSES MESSAGE
URGING EQUAL SUFFRAGE

WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. s.
Facing delegation of suffragettes
representing every state and terri
tory in the union, President Wilson
today refused to send a special mes
sage to congress urging equal SUI
frage, and declined to incorporate
such suggestion in regular message
until congress requests it.
The president said he could not
recommend that the house appoint
special committee to investigate tie
suffrage question, such as exists in
the states.
The president is so diplomatic, the
women are satisfied he will aid the
cause if he gets an opportunity. Mr..
Wilson said his private views could
not govern his action as president.

ON LOBBY FINDINGS

WASHINGTON, d. c., Dec. o.
The house lobby committee prevented
final report to the house sustaining
the presidents "insidious lobby
charge. Democrats and Republicans
joined in the report, denouncing lob
bying and lobbyists and largely sus-
tanning the charges of Colonel Null
hall. Congressman Mcdonald, a Pro-
gressive, and secretary of the COM
mittee reported his disapproval of
lobbying even more drastically than
others.
The committeeman unanimously re-
ported that the National Association
of Manufacturers was guilty of i'm
properly preventing and risking to
prevent legislation" The commit
tee unanimously exonerated the Am
erican Federation of Labor from
corrupt and illegal lobbying" and ex-
onerated Congressman Bartholde,
Burke, Calder, Shirley, Webb and
Fairchild who were named by Mul-
hall in connection with the lobby in
setigation. Regarding Congressman
McDomot, of Illinois, the majority
said: "We cannot say he has been
corrupt in his votes, but we are driv-
en- to the conclusion that he has been
guilty of acts of grave impropriety
and unbecoming dignity to the dis
tinguished position he occupies
McDonald's report demanded the
punishment of McDermot. Probably
the house will take action regarding
the Manufacturers association and
kindred organizations.
1--WE think it offensive and out
rageous that the association should
have paid hireings here to button
hole members, and we thing the as
sociation went beyond the limits Of
legitimate effort" said the report
"and deserves the severest censure.'
The report of the committee also
denounced Mulhall for "exaggera-
ion," and using money for lobbying

and ex-Speaker Cannon came in fol

er Wilson said it was absolutely i'm
possible for him to do the work given
him. He said he believed he was
able to do as much work as any man
in Durango. He mentioned the work
that was required. Commissioner Red
man told of the work Of the water
department and he expressed pleasure
at the interest shown by many inter-
ested citizens. There is no denying
that the pipe line is in bad shape
and Mr.. Redman is anxious to talk
the matter over with those who have
to foot the bills-taxpayers. Com
missioner Scouton went all over the
appropriation and where the money
would go.
Now will any one attempt to tell
US that each one of the commissioners
will not be benefited by the meet
ing. They received the views of the
delegation and if one of them is above
meeting with their constituents and
talking over the best methods of con-
Quoting the city and saving as much
money as possible, then he is too big
for the job. We have known many
men to apparently ignore the advice
of interested people and then later
adopt the policy recommended. Keep
up the good work If possible attend
the semi-monthly meetings of the
commissioners. Pay no attention r.
the slurs-unless you increase your
patronage to the slurring agency and
enable it to keep up the fight on Du-
range business interests, but in dong
this bear in mind that Durango will
never become the city it should as
long as the agency in question is with
us. Go to neighboring town ar;
people will tell you that no town in
the state outside of Durango would
stand for the treatment it has re-
ceived through this debilitatinp
agency.
Honest criticism of public officials
is expected. 1t is right to tell the
public just what officials are dong
To this end it is the duty of news
papers and we intend to do this as
time will permit-our people woult
no doubt like to know just what each
one of the commissioners are doing
the time given to the work, and .hs
benefits derived by the city. TIE
people of La Plata county would lils'
to know just what the county corr
missioners and county officials ar,
doing and how they are spending thu
taxpayers money. They would like t.
know more about the schools, the eff
cheney and benefits derived from TIL,
money spent. y
We would like to handle all thes'
subjects and keep them before thu
public every week, but it takes time
special work which costs none.
which is not always at the command
of paper, but maybe we can work il

Fair association has been given much
thought, of late, by the directorate.
Last night the board met and voted
as means to this end, to decrease
the number of directors from thir-
teen to seven, thereby fixing the re-
sponsibility on the individual chosen.
The directors elected were the
Messrs. John Olbert, James Gallery,
w. l. Clifford, j. w. Jarvis and Har-
ry Jackson, A. f. Reese and Rowe
Pingrey. Harry Jackson was elected
president; w. /. Clifford, vice presi-
dent, and John Gilbert, treasurer.
Walter Weightman will serve as sec
retary until some one is chosen to
fill the position. The question of
dates for the next annual fair was
discussed. 1t was the consensus Of
opinion that it should be held early
enough in September to avoid the
storm period. The board also favor
ably considered the recommendation
that exhibitors tickets be issued to
exhibitors of live stock only and
these be made transferable.
