The rare judicial ability which
James e. Garrigues has displayed
during his eighteen years contIn.
nous service on the bench in Colorado
eight years as district Judge and ten
as a member of the Stute Supreme
COurt-have caused his friends and
admirers throughout the state to in
sist that he be candidate this year
for the Republican nomination for JUS
lice Of the State Supreme Court for
he ten-year term. Judge Garrieues'
aame will be presented to the Repub-
lean State Assembly on Aug. 8 and to
Republican voters In the primary,
Sept. II. His friends are confident
that his long experience In judicial af-
fairs and his proved ability will result
In his nomination and election.
Before reaching the bench. Judge
9arrigues served two terms Of three
years each as district attorney Of the
Eighth Judicial District, which at that
time comprised the counties Of Weld,
Jackson, Larimer, Boulder, Morgan,
Washington, Yuma, Phillips. SedgwicI
md Logan.
At the expiration Of Judge Carr
CUES second term as district attorney,
the Thirteenth Judicial District was
formed out Of part Of the Eighth. leav-
ing the counties Of Boulder, Lartmer,
Weld and Jackson This was the pc
,iod of the development OF the great
agricultural district Of northern Colo
rado. railway, reservoir and ditch con
structlon greatly increasing litigation.
To relieve the press Of business be-
fore the courts, Governor Peabody ap
pointed Judge Garrigues az an add
tiOnal Judge for the Eighth district. He
served until the next election. and
then was elected for the unexpired
term Of four years. At Its expiration.
he was nominated and elected for
third term OF six years.
In 1910. while serving as district
Judge, Judge Garrigues was nominated
by the Republican party for justice OF
the State Supreme Court In the fa'a
Of Democratic landslide. he was OIL
of two Republican candidates for state
,fflces to be elected.
While district Judge, Judge Garrl-
CUES had won wide reputation for
the rapldIty with which he had cleared
the docket and had put the court In
position to decide cases soon after fl
ing. When Judge Garrigues became
chief justice Of the State Supreme
Court, a similar condition confronted
him. The court was two years behind
on Its docket; the number of undeter
mined cases before 1t were popularity
referred to as 'the mountain" As
lief justice, Judge Garrigues quickly
remedied this situation. In less thuN
two years, as result Of the most IN
firing labor. the members Of the court
under the direction Of Chief 1ustis'e
Garrigues had cleared the docket. For
the first time In years the court WIS

ture. according to Jesse L. Lasky.
who has just arrived from Europe

centers in England, France, Ger
many, Spain. Austria. Hungary and

Miss Negri is undoubtedly the
foremost screen artist of Europe" !"
said Mr.. Lasky. although her pic
lures up to this time have been of
a historical nature, or have been
modern stories made with the lin
tied resources of European pro-
ducers. her strong personality and
magnetism have been apparent to
all observers OF motion picture act
ing. Because of this genius she has
built up a worldwide following.
and when American audiences see
her in a powerful story. produced
by a capable director. and gowned
in the latest Paris creations, they
will acclaim her one of the biggest
stars of the American screen.
Through arrangements with the
Hamilton Theatrical Corporation, to
which she Is under contract, we
plan to have Miss Negri come to
New York next month and make a
special picture at our Long Island
studio. As soon as ! arrived in
New York started arrangements
for one of our best known directors
to produce the picture. and the en-
tire resources of the production de-
partment will be put at his COM
mand to give this story the settings
and costuming which 1t deserves.
Miss Negri is the first of a num-
Der OF well known European play
ers whom we plan to bring over
here in the near future"

Builders Reflect
McCloskay Head
Exchange Makes Plans to
Take Active Part in
Civic Affairs.

With the election OF officers and
directors, the Builders and Manu-
facturers' Exchange is making plans
to take part actively in the civic af-
fairs OF Washington.
Following the unanimous re-elec-
ton of Arthur L. Smith as presr-
dent. other officers have been cho-
sen to serve for the ensuing year,
including B. K. McCloskay, FIRST vice
president: Henry B. Davis, second
vice president; W. v. Boyle, third
vice president; r. B. Cummings,
treasurer, and James B. Wheeler,
secretary.
Directors elected were: F. L.
Wagner. Paul Grove. Leroy Reeves,
]. NJ. Winnemoore, ]. L. Mcdonald,
w. E. Mooney, A. C. Murray, H. r.
Eastwood, w. F. Andrews and Ed
win H. RoseLgarten.
In an address recently to the
large number of general contractors
and supply men who attended the
meeting Mr.. Smith outlined the work
for the coming year and urged that
the organization cooperate with
trade bodies of the District to re-
duce the cost of construction and
to refrain from paying bonuses to
NoA ANNS II ouCS- ne SdlQ lndI IneTn-
bers of the Builders and MaIufac-
turers' Exchange were doing every
thing possible to lower building
costs, and then read the letter which
follows. In part, which he said had
been sent to all builders, contrac-
tors ard speculative builders.
THE exchange has had brought to
its attention from time to time the
matter of payment Of wages by some
Of the builders in this city, wages
in excess of the wage scale and bid
ding for and paying of wages In some
of the trades far in excess of the
amount generally paid. The consen-
sus Of opinion Is opposed to such
practices. 1t being pointed out that
| such policy not only increases the
cost to purchasers. but in addition
frequently places the majority of
builders in an embarrassing position;
that 1t makes it more dificult for
them to obtain the services of such
trades and gives a decided prefer
ence to those who are willing to pay
these excessive wages.
''The subject has been frequently
urged before the exchange, and at
a recent meeting of the board -
directors a resolution was adopted,
after a thorough discussion and con-
sideration of the matter, whereby
the exchange voted its disapproval
Of such practices and resolved TO
bring the matter to the attention of
all builders in the city, with a view
Of impressing the fact that such
practices are hardly fair and that
the effect upon the trades is de-
moralizing.
I'VE therefore write you to re-
quest that you consider this matter
seriously and endeavor to agree that
the conclusion reached by the ex-
change is one which should be en-
couraged and promoted"

In keeping with the growth and
development of the organization
and it's work, the board of direc-
tors authorized a special committee
to seek larger and more suitable
quarters for the Offices of the Ma

bureau to serve as clearing house
