OWNERSHIP
ELECTION is CERTAIN

That a special election will be
called to resubmit the municipal
ownership proposition there is no
longer any doubt. Two separate or
ganizations have pledged themselves
to support the movement and COM
mittees are now out gathering ma
terial for the campaign.
The work-of the committees is quiet
but as soon as the organization work
is completed announcements will be
made and the opening guns Of the
fight will be fired.
James w. Bucklin, who took a
leading part in the campaign last
fall, has expressed the desire to take
no active part in the initiation Of the
movement but says that he will lend
any help he can to it. The munich
pal ownership committee which was
formed shortly after the November
election last year is only one of the
organizations which will foster the
campaign.
When the petition for special
election is circulated and filed II Is
probable that the fair association will
take advantage of the opportunity to
re-submit their proposition and that
several other initiated bills will also
be filed
Formal announcements in connec-
tion with the campaign are expected
next week.

JOHN MARTIN POPULAR
WITH PEOPLE OF STATE
Sentinel Special Service.

OtiAllti flpttlul DtINltcs
Denver, May S.-John A. Martin,
formerly congressman for two terms
from Colorado, is spending the week
in Denver comforting with his close
political and personal friends regard
ing his candidacy for governor. He
was seen today and asked regarding
the chances OF his becoming a candi-
date. He replied that he had not
yet made up his mind fully as TO
what he will do, but did not attempt
to deny that he has aspirations in
that direction. He has told some of
his friends that he will soon decide
one way or the other as to whether
he will be candidate.
Mr.. Martin expressed the belief
that the special Legislature will
hardly enact all the laws asked Tor
by Governor Ammons. and that more
than likely the appropriation bills
will be all that will finally be pass
ed.
''It looks to me as though there is
little chance of passing any OF the
other measures with possibly the ex-
ception Of the one controlling the
sale of liquors during times of indus
trial strikes" said Mr.. Martin.
Former Mayor Speer. discussing
Martins chance for election should
he decide to make the race. today de-
clared that the Pueblo man could
easily be elected over any and all
opposition. He said that he serious
ly believed he could carry Pueblo
county by 5000. at least.
Senator Thomas NJ Patterson is
still being talked about in connec-
tion with the governors race, and his
friends here say that he possibly will
yet decide to become a candidate.
Pressure is being brought to bear to
compel him to run.
Within the past few days it has
been made public that Governor Am
mons will not ask reelection at
the hands of democracy. He has open
ly declared for months that he was
not a candidate and did not want to
be considered on by his friends.
The situation as 1t now appears on
the horizon is that Mr. Martin or Sen
ator Patterson are the only two per-
sons being seriously considered as
Governor Ammons' successor.

HUNDREDS

HOLOCAUST

IOiTlNA, May s.-tBy Associated
Press. Fifty are known to be
dead in the village OF Linera.
which was destroyed by an earth
quake.
Twenty bodies were found among
the ruins of Passopomo. Bongiardo
and Malati.
The vicinity OF Catania probably
suffered more than any other sec
tioh Tor the earthquake and volcanic
efupuons. The town was built on
bed OF Lava at the foot of the Ega
volcano. Its population was 10000
and was the largest city in Sicily.
Since it was founded b. c. 729. it has
had frequent earquakes and was
partially destroyed in A. d. 120, and
thrice since.
Official reports late today placed
the number of dead at 1875 and the
injured at 2S3 The figures Will
probably be increased when more
complete advices are received from
the wrecked villages
The earthquake eruption and fire
overwhelmed the villages OF the SLOPE
of Mount Etna and caused the death
OF more than two hundred Accord
ing TO latest estimates the property
loss was as great as the Messina dis
aster of 1908.
Tracks were torn up and buildings
razed for radius OF several miles
about Catania and terror-stricken
people rushed from the villages into
katapias before daybrea.t.ah hrineipg,

authorities received orders from

was started. Soldiers are aiding in
the endeayor to rescue those still
alive under the ruins and extricate
the dead All available nurses have
modified and are engaged in gath
ering the homeless children who have
lost their parents. Temporary shell
ter has been provided. Along the
highways groups OF refugees are nu-
merous, many of them burdened
with llfters carrying injured and dy-
ing relatives. In the neighborhood
of Santa Venoyna the number of in
iured is great All available autos
have been eommandered to assist
in the rescue work. The shocks We're
felt for the past several days at in
tervals ana were accompanied by
eruptions from Mt. Etna. The first
severe shock was at o'clock last
night, the center of the disturbances
being the village of Liners. where
the victims were mostly women and
children.
