Denver "War" Just Democracy The appointment of Hiram B il.lt* u> suoeed Henry J. Arnold »-u confirmed by the Supervisor* -at her late uu Thursday night and on that same Thursday night, Im mediately following the confirma tion of his sipolntment, Mr. Hilt#* went Incontinently to the court house to take possession of the assessor's office and he found that Mr. Arnold had anticipated his visit Mr. Arnold was inside his office with the door locked and Mr. Ar nold refused to open the door and hold converse with Mr. HUU. There upon. Mr. Hilts, or some on* sit ing for him, took a crowbar, or a steel oolumu, or some other instru ment. and smashed the glass in the door, or window, of the asses sor’s office. The brokeni glass fell harmlessly, the implement was tak en away, nobody was Injured, no body was threatened with injury Then, w hen the pane of glam was broken, Mr. Arnold opened the door ad admitted Mr. Hilts. For our part we think that Mr. Hilts was wrong in being In such a hurry to acquire possession ol. his new office, aud we think that Mr. Arnold was wrong in refusing to adtnit Mr. Hilts when Mr. Hilt* appeared with thn document contain ing hia appointment as successor t«# Mr. Arnold. But Mr. Hilts ami Mr. Arnold are both democrats, ami the kind of things they did Thurs day evening are very familiar and very common to the history of de mocracy In Colorado. Then on Friday morning. fol lowing ithe Hilts-Arnold discussion, came the deluge. Mr. Patterson'* newspaper declared that there ha l been a riot; that the life of Mr. Arnold had been menaced; that i was only du e to the alertness of Governor Shafroth in preparing t * swing the state militia Into Den ver that bloodshed had been avert - ed. None of those statements were true,but that is beside the paint— they were made Denver Times. W "“ F„ IMy OU Ou. *"* f “ C’“ 0. D,.„ we told .1 25 c cell let Sxturdxv ?
