his experience in the legislature in
Denver the past winter in which ne
said he had felt compelled at times to
oppose some of his Republican members
and ally himself temporarily with the
Democrats, not because they were
Democrats, but because his conscience
told him that on those particular ques-
tiOns under consideration they were on
the right track. He said At other times
he was in the the greatest harmony
with his own party and he guaged his
conduct by what he thought was for
the greatest benefit to the people whom
he had been called to represent. He
referred to the present disposition Of
the people to pay less attention than
ever before to party lines, but to honor
sincere and honest men and women
without much regard to party lines and
affiliations. He noted the fact that
the spirit which was prevalent in the
meeting was in pleasing contrast with
that Of many similar meetings Of our
citizens he had attended in past years,
and hoped that the spirit Of harmony
and good fellowship would continue.

who are his coworkers in the city gov.

his hearers to the fact that it is no
easy matter to serve the people of
municipality as mayor or alderman; but
thanked the people for the support they
had given him, and urged greater 10y

council.

the needs of the city along many lines
and praising the ladies for the success
of the evening making it very plain
that in his estimation the men without
the ladies were mighty small potatoes
and few in the hill. He said If the
Business Mems League was desired il
would be necessary to enlist the sup
mort of the ladies, and then he reciteC
the efforts of our people with straw

many things which he hoped would sOo'
cease to be visions and become realities
