seizure here today of 125 gallons of
rye whiskey, valued mt "blindtiger"

Has a True Ring.

The address delivered by Chairman
Committee before large gathering of
Republicans from the intermountain
states last week ut Denver rings true.
Instead of abusing the opposition, in
stead of making wild, absurd charges
which cannot be sustained, he set forth
in terse, clear and understandable Ian
guage the things for which the Re
publican party stands-and they are
all constructive. His address was not
filled with criticism and fault-finding
He did not decry the successful or
seek by open statement or inuendo to
incite the minds of his hearers and
cause them to believe one class was
in control and had for its whole OBJ
ject and purpose the complete destruc-
ton of some other class. His Ian
gung,,~4s;ls pointed and plain. Itswas
the kind of an address that appeals
to safe, sane and sensible Americans.
1t was not partisan, just loyal. And
the position he takes that this country
must get back to it's ideals and prin-
ciples of fairness, equity and justice
to all will be approved by every loyal
citizen, be he Republican or be he
Democrat We believe the time has
come when the great bulk of the Amer
lean people will forget party affilia-
tions for national good. If the Repub-
lican party stands for things that are
constructional, all loyal citizens will
be found in that party if it stands
for things destructive, all loyal citi-
zens will be found stunning it.

BIG REPUBLICAN
GATHERING IN
DENVER LAST WEEK

HENvER, Jan. 1.-THE gathering
of Republicans at Denver last
week practically opened the cam
palgn of 1870. The marked character
istic of that meeting was the unbound
ed enthusiasm shown and the large
number attending, not only from Colo
RADIO, but from New Mexico, Wyoming
and other intermountain states.
The banquet ut the Brown Palace
the evening of the Sth, at which Chair
man VIII II. Hays of the Republican
National Committee, delivered the
keynote speech, was the crowning
event of the two days session. Mr..
Hays makes no pretentions of being
an orator, but he is forceful, ener-
getic talker and has Il way and man
ner that carries convictions. He did
not devote time to abuse of the Demo-
cratic party, merely pointing to the
fact that the return of this nation to
sanity depended ON the union of all
forces opposed to radicalism of all
kinds, and that hundreds of thousands
of loyal Democrats in this nation were
ready to join in this move for national
redemption.
Among the terse statements made
by Mr.. Hays were these:
'''rhe government must function for
all creeds and classes-for the rights
of labor, for the rights of capital, for
the rights of all.
"Republicans shall bring this coun-
try back to the limitations of the con-
stitution in times of peace.
with all our powers we shall strive
to prevent the further spread of So
cialism.
1--WE have promised forward step
ping as well ms Il forward looking pro
gram for labor.
"That criminal element called l. w.
w. or anything else is Il traitor to this
country and shall be treated as such.
Takes which kill initiative must
not be levied.
'In the great readiustment business
must have sympathetic help, not an
tagonistic curtailment.
1--WE are against that form of preda-
tory paternalism that has developed
lately in this country.
"The Republican party will never
forget the debt we owe to the soldiers
who have won the war.
"There never will be again in this
country any tolerance for divided
loyalty.
"The Republican party from its in
ception has stood against undue fed
eralization of industries and activities
