RAMSAY 0. K. TO
GO ON PAY ROLL
Cones to Sign as Controller;
Tests NegIey Rule.

A test of Claude E. Negley's power
as mayor besides that which he Will
undergo Saturday, when hearing
upon the petition to make the re-
straining order against his rival, Ira
L. Holmes, appeared imminent to-
day, through acts of Negley's con-
troller, Frank Cones.
Cones declared that he would send
through to City Treasurer Edward
A. Ramsay 2 number of city vouch-
ers with Cones signature as con-
troller.
Ramsay has refused to approve
vouchers signed by Mrs. Maude
Duvall, wife of former Mayor John
L. Duvall, on the ground that she
legally was not appointed controller.
This prevented the city adminiStra-
ton from expending a single penny,
since the treasurer's signature must
be on the checks with the control
ler's.
Ramsay said he would honor the
checks signed by Cones, on advice Of
County Attorney Clinton H. Givan,
who is advising the Negley admins
tration upon every step.
1t was regarded as possible that
the Holmes supporters would start
some legal action.

a wet" Senator by Colorado prohi-
bition leaders.
He voted against the anti-beer
law in Congress, and some months
ago sensation was created in the
State by stories that a shipment of
twelve cases of liquor, consigned to
Phipps, had been seized in Mary
land. The story was printed by
almost ali Colorado newspapers and
never denied by Phipps.
In his last campaign for re-elec-
ton, Phipps was denounced by A.
j. Finch, superintendent of the
Colorado Anti-Saloon League, as a
wet, and dry pamphlets were circu-
lated throughout the State attack
ing him.
Local ministers have dwelt at
length on the fact that the Demo-
cratic convention which adopted the
anti-Volstead plank contained a
majority of women. Only As per
cent of the delegates were men. The
modification plank passed by vote
of 805 to 262.
Each side is accusing the other
of building up a big campaign fund
to use in the prohibition battle.
Denver is normally Republican,
but Democratic hopes are high, be-
cause both the State and city adj
administrations are at present Demo-
