Denver.-At the Democratic state
convention at the Auditorium on
Thursday night, Thomas NJ Patterson
was designated for governor.
Charles s. Thomas was given the
choice designation Of the assembly for
the Democratic candidacy for United
States senator. John A. Martin of
Pueblo also was made designated
candidate.
A fight was made upon the Colo
RADIO Bar Association candidate for
justice Of the Supreme Court. John
Campbell. The result was that James
r. Killian OF Denver, who did not par.
ticipate in the bar election, was given
the choice designation OF the assem-
bly,. James H. Teller of Denver was
given the second vote.
George w. Allen. who was charac-
terized as Republican. received just
few votes more than necessary to
entitle him to place upon the ticket.
Those who We're directing the as
sembly strove diligently to ignore the
state administration. But they were
unable to control fourteen members Of
the resolutions committee, which re-
turned to the assembly. after many
hours struggle in committee session,
a minority report sustaining the state
administration.
Instantly the contest was on. Pueblo
county led in the denunciation Of the
assembly's attitude Of what they called
"cowardly silence" and refusal ito
meet the real issue in Colorado"
Denver county did not want the mat
ter discussed at all. and finally.
through Julius Aichele, succeeded in
placating all factions by Offering a
motion to table both the majority re-
port, which did not mention the state
administration, and the minority re-
port, which commended 1t, and that
the assembly adopt Alva Adams ad-
dress as the sentiment Of the assem-
bly,. Adams speech contained no ref
erence to the congressional delegation
nor OF the state administration. The
Aichele motion prevailed.
Tht assembly was the first in the
history Of politics to have been called
to order by a woman. Mrs Gertrude
A. Lee, acting state chairman, called
the delegates to order with the very
gavel which, years ago, fell in the
state Senate to announce the passage
Of the right of suffrage for women.
The women delegates In the assem-
bly. presented Mrs. Lee with a hand
some bouquet Of roses.
The assembly paid tribute to tho
memory of Thomas J. McCue, national
committeeman. by standing with
bowed heads for one minute, and by
the adoption Of memorial resolutions.

A Word Regarding the Work Already Done

IS the season OF 1914 is drawing to n
close, it may be OF some interest to ne
public To know something Of the woi k
which the Cemetery Association has &C.

AT the time they II ceived their charte :,
which was III 1907, they only had eighly
lnemheis, willie today they number one
hundred and ffty-Cwo.
The humber of members paying for Il
different yards are as follows:-Rlverside
93. Mountain View (Corners) 26, Lake
View (Cadys Falls)19, Greenlawn (Plalos)
6 Wheeler 5, Laporre 3. Randolph has
No members as yet but by the interest
shown and the help SO freely given when
work was commenced there last spring,
no doubt that by another season there
Will be.
Riverside, Greenlawn and Lake View
are now in nearly perfect order; while
Randolph, Mountain View and Laporle
have been taken on the present year, and
as much work as possible has been done
The Wheeler yard will be taken next
season, and as the numbers increase
more work can be done.
The Permanent Fund now amounts to
$3.50.
Ire town voted the sum of 5000 at
their last town meeting.
TIE work of this Association has been
appreciated both by those whose triends
are there and by me public in general;
and many words of encouragement haye
been given to the little band OF ladies'
that has 50 coura4 eously taken this work
in hand.
The Association has expended $3.50 the
past year and there is still more to be
done before the season closes.

ing last May to hold Rummage Sale,

Home Dept. S. S. Work

To the members of the different Home
Department classes in this town:
1t does not seem as though all mem.
bers of these classes understand fully
what it means to belong to the Home De-
partment of the Sunday School.
When one joins the class he promises
to give just single half hour each week
or five minutes per day to the study of
the lesson unless prevented by illness or
some other good reason.
Your reports and promises should be
sent in at the close OF each quarter as the
town superintendent has to send her re-
port early in the month that the county
superintendent may send hers to the
state superintendent. They had to be
sent in by Oct this year and all from
this town were most incomplete as SO
few had been turned in.
The money report was good because
several sent in generous collection, but
one or two pennies each week by each
member of the classes is all that is asked
of anyone. If all will do this the De-
partment will be easily self-supporting,
but many send nothing. Five cents "a
quarter would be all right if one could do
no more. Only do help co build up the
cause by faitEfuness and interest in the
good work. 1t helps and encourages the
regular Sunday School to have flourish
ing Home Department.
AT the end of the quarter in December
you are requested to send your reports
as follOws:-Mrs. c. H. Slocum, UniveT-
salist; Mrs. W. B. Patch, Advent; Mrs.
Bugbee, Methodist; Mrs. Woodbury.,
