Evening Post Attempts Imposs.
ible Task of Influencing
Local Vote.
Denver Mans Opinion of That
City's Commission Form
of Government.
O'CONNOR A POPULAR SELECTION

Early in the spring and before it
was contended IN these columns that
there would be a light vote cast in
the contest for the Democratic nom
ination for United States Senator,
especially in the country districts,
principally on account of the
primary date, August /, being a
busy time for the farmers and that
the bulk of the vote would be cast
in the cities, the developments of
the last few weeks proving this
without a doubt, the three candi-
dates, Gov. McCreary, ex-Gov. Beck
ham and Congressman Stanley, all
opening headquarters in Louisville
and each making a bid for the vote
here. Another point made at the
time was that there was little in
terest in the race by the Louisville
Democracy, and the exact words in
the opinion of a leading Democrat
at that time were that no one would
lose sleep over the race" Repeat
edly the Evening Post has attempted
to prove this assertion wrong, con-
tending that the Democrats of Louis
Vile were falling all over themselves
