Denver, Colo. July 21.-That the

chief consideration OF the people OF
Colorado when they select men for
positions of trust and honor in the
State government this fall. is grow
ing more and more apparent each
day No candidate who has behind
him record of agitation, strife and
turmoil will be seriously considered
see Colorado grow. The day of the
m1lckraker. the politician and their
ilk has passed.
The men who Will receive the
support of the people in the coming
campaign are the men who stand for
the enforcement of law at all times
and under all circumstances as 1t is
only through the strict, impartial en-
forcement of the law that Colorado
can again take her rightful place
among the states of the Union. Such
law enforcement can be guaranteed
to all alike by placing the executive
authority of the state in the hands
OF strong men, who at no time have
been associated with the lawless or
the wreckers.
This is the slogan of the campaign
of the Mems Law and Order Lea que.
and the support being received from
all sections Of Colorado is most en-
couraging. The spirit indicates that
the day OF the agitator and the
muckraker is passed in this state for
ever. The League in its campaign
knows no party but is fostering and

EUROPEAN SITUATION
AFFECTS STOCK MARKET

we" 10TH, jury SI.-TnG local
stock market opened amid scenes OF
great excitement. Conditions in
continental Europe growing out o.
the Seryian crisis and the Irish sit
nation, caused severe losses on for
eign exchanges. The gravity OF the
situation may be judged from the
fact that the Vienna exchange is to
remain closed for several days, while
the Austro-Hungarian bank rate has
advanced without warning. Prices
held far better than in London,
where quotations OF Americans were
4 down from . to almost loints.
Canadian Pacific, which yielded o; er
~ points in London opened here with
loss Of 3 Is points. Declines OF
to IL points were recorded In the
initial trading by Denver L, Rio
Grande pfd. and many other active
stocks The market continued fev-
erish throughout the first hour, with
further weakness in Canadian Paci-
tic which extended its loss to four
points.
Leading bankers were in active
communication with their European
correspondents and the tenor of ad-
vices received from them offered lit
tie ground for encouragement. 1t
was the general opinion, however
that means would be found to To-
calize any conflict between Austria

hands in the first hour and of that
amount fully one-tifth was credited

Progressive Strength Source Of Worry
to Leaders in Coming Election.

Boise-With n total OF 81 candi.
dates in the field, representing five
different political parties. the general
election campaign for this state open.
cd last week.
The election gives promise OF being
one OF intense interest, with the proba.
bility OF mixed result when the final
canvass OF the vote In made. There
is reason TO believe that there viii ~"
new surprises as the result OF the
election this year as compared to
other elections. principally because
there are five instead OF four parties
In the field and because one OF them.
the progressive, has taken some
strength from the two dominant ones,
the republican and democratic.
The republican and democratic
state central committees have opened
their headquarters In Boise. The pro.
gresslve party opened headquarters at
Caldwell.
Among leaders OF all parties the real
question In as TO the strength OF tho
progressive party. Because this party
cast but approximately 2OO0 votes at
the recent primary election, Il is
claimed by republicans and democrats
the Bull Moosors are losing their
strength. The progressiyes answer
that. having no contests at the pri.
mary election. their strength was not
shown and that at the coming election
they will east n heavier vote than two
years ago.
