Leading Places for Them in
Colorado Democratic Campaig

IBy Telegraph to The Tribunel
Denver March S.-Alany men will be
supplanted by women in tho organization
OF the fall campaign by Mrs. Gertrude
Lee, OF Denver. chairman OF the Demo-
cratic State Central Committee, the only
woman 10 hold such post In the country.

10 give the Democratic party an increased
majority and let Colorado be placed in
the list OF states that approves the adj
miniStrative policies OF President Wilson,
for We all know that the elections this
year will be more a test of Wilson's ad-
ministration than tho choice OF indiyid-

tributed committee positions with a lib
eral hand. There is 10 reason why a
woman should not be as good cam
pa'gner as a man. Did you ever hear OF
woman losing an argument with "A

Boston. March S--"When a poor
