room Of the Auditorium hotel So dis
gusted were the real opponents of the
Denver Union Water company who at
tended these meetings that they have
repudiated the ticket framed up and
Hurlbut and Walker now look like dead
cocks in the pit. Those who would have
given them first, second or third choice
viii pass up their names on the ballot
like plate of cold. potatoes. The com
mittee to recommend candidates brought
forth a list of those whose records were
beyond cavil on the water and other
questions for which the league has been
supposed to stand. Both Hurlbut and
Walker saw to il that the meetings Were
packed by a mob of job hunters and
relegated politicians, so that the names
OF other candidates were hooted down.
Under these circumstances the indorse-
ments given Hurlbut and Walker will
prove boomerang and lose them many
, votes. In fact, the two water league.
candidates have placed themselves out
side the running and will not have
look-in when the votes are counted. Den
yer has passed the stage of machine

At the meeting in the Auditorium
hotel last Saturday night the question
was asked as to what constituted mem

TOM SHEEHAN CHOICE
FOR TODAY'S HURLER
Mitchell or James Will Perform
for Lee Foil Against the
Athletics.

Tom sheehAn. the young rght-handed
pitcher from Peoria. who made such a
good impression on the fans in his local
debut against the Browns, viii be on the
mound for the Athletics in the second
game OF the series with Cleveland this
afternoon. sheehan is improving rapidly
under the tutelage OF Ira Thomas and
Mack expects to have a finished twirler
before the close OF the season.
sheehan appears 10 have everything
that a youngster needs TO make good but
experience and he seems TO know more
about pitching than the average recruit.
He has won both Of his games, defeating
Detroit and ST. Louis in games that re-
auired plenty OF nerve, as each contest
was close all the way,
MANAGER Fohl will send either Willie
Mitchell or Sam Jones against the Maeks,
and with the Indians playing as well as
any team in the league at the present
time, Fohl believes that either can defeat
the Maeknen.
The victory in the hrst game OF the
series makes six victories for Cleveland
over the Athletics In 10 days and the In
dians appear 10 have something on the
Mackmen. Guy Morton was invineiole Ia
aii but one inning yesterday and Man
ager Fohl says that he may come back
with his star IN the last game OF the
series
