In striking contrast to the
harmony with which the twelve
democratic candidates are work
ing, and the good word which
each speaks for the other, is the
'.go it alone" spirit that is crop
ing out in the opposition. As a
matter OF fact the republican
ranks are split clear up the mid
die. For all their brave words.
the other Candidates do not sup
port the outrageous lowering Of
corporation assessments by
Hartman and they cannot de-
fend him. Commissioner Gil
laspey is repudiated by not only
the balance OF the ticket. but by
republican leaders. Gladstone
was dragooned into running to
fill out the ticket. and is suspic-
ious OF the Others, aud they are
afraid of his &. F. X |. connec-

To the News Champion
Gunnison, Colorado.
Dear Editor:
l believe we ought to
elect sta te officers who are favorable to,
and who will support our Western
Slope interests, if we expect to come
into our own and receive the recogni-
tion we are entitled to.
] Leslie Hubbard the candidate for
Attorney General on the Democratic
ticket is Western Slope man and we
have every reason to believe from his
past official record in the state, he will
be loyal to all of our interests and in
stitutions. Senator VIM. C. Robinson
from Colorado Springs. Republican can
didats has proven by his vote in the
Senate that he is opposed to everything
that has been presented for the ad-
vsncement of our State Normal School
at Gunnison. After the bill for mill
age for our school passed the House
two years ago, and was sent to the
Senate, ! offered an amendment to the
bill raising the millage from 2-l00 of
mill to 500. Senator Robinson i'm
mediately offered an amendment to my
motion reducing it to 1-1O0 Of . mill,
which would have practically killed our
institution However. he failed to
secure support for his amendment and
! succeeded in raising the millage to
3-l00. When this bill came up for final
passage. Senator Robinson voted with
two other Republican senators against
tie bill. The three senators that voted
against this each had State institutions
within their district which were being
supported by . millage; while the three
schools on the western slope were de-
pending entirely upon appropriations at
each session of the legislature for their
maintenance.
] felt that it is my duty to let the peo-
pls Of my district know who has been
friendly to our interests and they can
govern themselves accordingly. l hope
and shall expect that the good people
Of Gunnison county and the western
slops will be - loyal to their own inter-
esss q have tried to be while repre-
ssnting them in both houses Of the legis-
latnrs.
Yours sincerely,
J.. F. PeaEson.

Adna Wright Leonard, San Francisco;

The conference adopted plans
which. 1t is believed, will lead to tho
unification OF Methodist churches
within four years. and perhaps by
1918.
When the conference adjourned 1t
was to meet at the call OF the bishops
thus giving opportunity for another
session of the conference two years
hence. II 1t is believed advisable. The
plans for unification then will be pre-
sented to the Southern church by rep
resentatives OF both churches. who
meantime are to arrange details.
Efforts are to be made to get a

Colorado Springs.-The case Of Mrs.
Sophia Gertrude Chellew, who several
years ago started suit for half Of the
estate of Winfield Scott Stratton, late
multimill.onaire mining king. was
thrown out of court by County Judge
w. P. Kinney at the conclusion Of
several days of evidence. He declared
his decision that the claimant was not
the widow Of Stratton, according to
the testimony given by witnesses.
His specific findings we're:
That from Dec. q, 1873, to Jan. 2.
1874, Stratton was in or near Colo
RADIO Springs, and not in Texas, where
Mrs. Chellew claims he was.
That A. N. Poor. first husband OF
Mrs. Chellew. died in 1875. and that
therefore the claimant was Mrs. Poor
at the time she claims to have mar
ried Stratton:
That the claimant was not married
to Stratton Jan. 1, 1874, in Texas, as
set forth in her complaint.
Judge Kinney's decision ends the
suit as far as his court is concerned
unless an appeal Is taken. which Is
not expected.
