Owing to the character of the land,
which is covered with marshes and
woods, the Germans cannot hope to
conduct Il formidable expedition
there until winter sets in and the
ground freezes. Accordingly they are

a force of Germans about seventy

WILSON GIVES UP
war LOAN TRIP
President Says Duties in Wash
ington Will Not Permit
Him to Leave.
COVETED CHANCE TO SPEAK
Hoped and Planned to Tour Country
So He Could Discuss Great Under
taking Which Has Made
Loans Necessary.

Washington. Sept. IL. = President
Wilson, in announcing that he had
abandoned definitely plans for trans
continental tour for the Fourth Lib
erty loan, said he was convinced that
it was not right for him to be absent
from Washington for more than a day
or two at Il time while the war con-
tinues.
The president said he keenly felt
the privation of being confined to the
capital, but that it was impossible for
him to deal with important war ques-
tions by telegraph or at distance
from sources Of information which ex-
ist only here.
II had hoped, and had even begun
to plan,' the president said, "a trip
to the western coast and back in con-
nection with the campaign" for the
Fourth Liberty loan, not because he
lieved that the country had any need
of being stimulated to subscribe to
that loan by anything that could say,
but because | coveted the opportunity
to discuss with my fellow citizens the
great undertaking which has made
such loans necessary and in which our
whole energy and purpose are enlisted.
SIT is the third or fourth time that
| have tried to persuade myself that
such trip was possible for me with
out serious neglect of my duties here
because have keenly felt again and
again the privation of being confined
to the capital and prevented from
having the sort of direct contact with
the people am serving which would
be Of so much benefit and stimulation
| to me.

HAS GOOD RECORD
cap" ANDREW SUPPORTED La
BOR IN THE LEGISLATURE.
Commended in Reports of State Fed
Grafton and Railroad Brotherhoods
for Work in General Assembly.

William H. (-Cap") Andrew. can
didate for district judge on the Demo
cratic ticket, has an exceptionally good
labor record. AS n member of the
house in the nineteenth general assem-
bly, he was one of the few representa-
tives from Denver county who voted
for labor measures straight down the
line. His record was especially COM
mented upon by the legislative COM
mittees of the State Federation of La
Dor and the joint Legislative commit
tee of the railroad brotherhoods, is
sued soon after the session of the leg
islature adjourned.
Quoting from the blue book of the
railroad brotherhoods, which had an
exhaustive report of labor measures
before the nineteenth general assem-
bly,, this statement is made: I'VE de-
sire to call your attention to certain
members of the house and senate who
never failed at any time to support
and champion the bills introduced by
organized labor. Among the foremost
of these in the house was William H.
Andrew of Denver county,"
During that session the following
important labor measures were
passed: Headlight law. miners eight
hour law, protection of employees in
the building of scaffolding, creating a
commission for establishing mini
mum wage for women and minors, to
prohibit the importation of deputies
from outside the county, minimum
wage for school teachers, coal mine
inspection, anti-loan shark law, repeal
of the anti-boycott or black list law
(this measure was vetoed by Governor
Ammons), and relieving. employees
from the assumption of rick.

TIMBERLAKE HAS
GOOD WAR RECORD
SUPPORTED LABOR MEAS
URES IN THE HOUSE.
Tho of Quaker Ancestry, He Has
Given Loyal Support to President in
Prosecuting the War; Under Fire
When Visiting Fighting Front.

Congressman Charles B. Timber
lake of the Second Colorado district
has given consistent support to every
necessary war measure, and sustained
the policy of President Wilson. He
is a candidate for reelection on the
Republican ticket.
Timberlake also has been a sup
porter of labor measures advocated
by the American Federation of Labor
in the House.
Congressman Timberlake has been
misrepresented as to his vote on what
is known as the McLemore resolution,
which sought to warn American citi-
zens not to travel on foreign ships.
The records show that he did not vote
for the resolution itself, and had no
intention of voting for it. He was op-
posed to it, but when the President
asked that the resolution be revived
and disposed of when it came up on
the floor of the House, a motion was
made to table it. The vote being
taken thereon, there were 275 yeas and
136 nays. He voted against the mo-
ton to table, because defeat of it
would offer the only means whereby
substitute could be offered.
When the insults of Germany to the
and objectionable for the nation to
any longer take the position that it
was too proud to fight, and when the
President asked Congress to act, Tim
berlake forgot his Quaker ancestry,
and resolutely voted to assist the ma
tons chief executive.
When Congressman Kahn, the rank
ing Republican member of the House
military affairs committee, led the
fight on the floor for the selective
draft bill desired by President Will
son, Timberlake in casting his vote for
the measure, said: Since our consti-
tuition makes the President command
er-in-chief of the army and navy in
time of war, l urge that the least he
can expect is that no effort which this
nation can make should be left un-
done. | have decided that my duty
lies in loyal support of the President" !"
On matters not so closely connected
with the war, Timberlake voted for
national prohibition, woman suffrage
and to permit the interstate commerce
committee to fix freight rates during
One of the most industrious and con-
scientious members of the House, and
daily proving himself one of the
ablest, Undertake is popular with his
colleagues of both parties, not only
because he is constantly in attendance
at the sessions and meetings of the
committees, but because of his de-
cidedly likable personality. Tall and
gaunt and aggressive, he expresses
the very spirit of the Rocky Mountain
states.
In the fall of 1917 he crossed the
ocean in defiance of the German sub
L.,
tigation of actual conditions on the
western front. Several times when
fraternizing with our boys in the
trenches he was under fire and in dan
ger of his life. Nine other members
accompanied him. They constituted
the first congressional party to visit
the fighting front, and served as an
example for many others which have
since gone across.

In wording the posters, Mr.. Babson

he swat the labor agitator or picture
