Mr.. Leckenby served as mayor Of
Steamboat Springs when he was the
youngest executive In the state. He
has served for six years as clerk OF
the District Court and has filled many
other positions with credit. He has
served two terms as President OF the
Democratic Editorial Association. Two
years ago he was candidate in. the
primary for the same position to
which he now aspfres, but failing OF
nomination he was called into the
campaign as secretary Of the Demo
cratic State Central Committee and
rendered faithful and efficient aid
to his party. He still holds this re-
sponslble position in the party coun
ellis. In the assembly held In Denver
last month he received GA votes for
Auditor Of State. as against 1913 FOR
M. A. Leddy and 1913 for T. d. Foster.
Mr.. Leckenby is himself working
