EXIT POLITICAL PARTIES
From the Denver Times. j
The Progressive party In this state, following the example of the
party in the nation, has resolved to maintain the middle of the road
and enter into no alliances with either the Itepuhlican or the Demo
cratic parties. This is carrying forward the spirit of the ••crusader"
tiiat animated certain of the national leaders in the recent campaign.
It will stand forth as a third party.
We do not know' how long n third party may continue; we do not
know how long any party without patronage may continue in these
transitory times. It would not be surprising If party gave way to Indi
vidual. The Itepuhlican party may he swallowed by the Progressive
jtaity. while the Democratic party for for years will continue the party
iif patronage. If the Itepuhlican party fails of a leader It is going to hnve
"hard sledding." 4
Take the situation In this state: We have the "headless ballot**
nnd "direct legislation." In the future tho Intelligent votern —and a
premium is placed uj»on literacy nt last—must vote for Individual randl
slates. And tho voter may Initiate any piece of legislature he desires,
provided he can spare the time to secure a comparatively small number
of names to bis paper or has the funds to employ the professional petition
Better. The cltlsen may undo any piece of legislation passed by state
legislature or municipal body. All these things and others not named can
he xrought about without party and In defiance of party.
The day of party supremacy in gone—for some tune to come. In
the nation there may remain the then of a parly, other than the party
|n power; and In time the dissolution of parties will extend to the nu
giou. A party can be formed for an election and win a most decisive
victory and disappear the next day, ns witness the Citizen’* party of
Vcnver. *
The Progressive party In the nation and at home will succeed, pro
elded It has leadership. Without a leader like Koosev«-!t In the nation
Che party platform In thla last campaign would hnve been scuttled full
af holes as a near approach to Autocracy. It* humanitarian doctrine*
Were state Issues evolved by a party whose leader is the high priest of
federalism!
Which means that Instead of being a worshiper of party—the "G.
O. P." or any other "Grand New Party"—we are a nation of hero wor
shipers, hence the heedless ballot and the Initiative and referendum.
Printer's Ink has taken the place or parly and party organization. Some
May la a bum of patriotism party worhsip may be restored.
GETTING DOWN TO BUSINESS.
from the Colorado Springs Gasette.
Those Republicans who have all along complacently assumed that
after the election the Progreealves would be gradually reabsorbed Into the
old party, and that, with perhaps a few changes, the old organisation
would go along as before, ought by thla time to have seen a light. At the
Progressive conference In Denver Mouday night it was mndo very plain
that the new party will remain separate; any faint suggestion of fusion,
•ves, met with vigorous disapproval.

CORONER PROBES
DEATH OF RHODES,
KILLED AT TOLLER
That llarry I*. Rhode* came to
his death on November 27 from ron
tect with a live electrlr wire in the
Tollerhurg mine of the Cedar HIU
Coal nnd Coke company and that
from the evMencu the cause of the
accident was not determined, but
that it appeared to have been the re
sult of negligence of the deceased,
waa the text of the verdict of the cor
oner's Jury at* the Inquest held thin
afternoon.
An inquest to fix the cause and
responsibility of the death of Harry
L. Rhodes, stable boss of the Cedar
Hill Coal nnrl Coke company mine nt
Tollcrburg. who was killed by fall
ing upon a live wire In the mine last
Wednesday, la being held this aft
ernoon nt tho coroner’s office. The
Inquest is being conducted by Dep
uty Coroner I). 11. 81 pc and Deputy
District Attorney Chacon. Attorney
H. A. Schmidt was present In bchulf
of the family of the deceased.
The first witnesses were Dr. 8. C.
Clark, company surgeon nt Toller
hurg. Chief Electrician V. V. Patton
*nd Tlmhcrmnn Leo Os. The phy
sician testified to attending the dead
man and to finding a -discoloration
over the left temple, caused in his
opinion by contact with an electric
wire.
Patton declared under examina
tion that the wire* were insulated
and that only the "buckles’* were ex
posed. Patton did not see Rhodes
tn contact with the wire but viewed
the dead mail after he had been hrot
out. He observed the discoloration
over the eve. He said that the wires
carried 500 volts, sufficient under
circumstances of contact, to kill a
man.
l«eo os. the timberman, was the
first to discover the body of Rhodes,
who was on his knees with his head
touching the wires which wore up
against the side ribs. He did not
see Rhodes fall.
While there wore no witnesses to
Hie accident the belief is that Rhodes
on hi* way from tho stable tripped
over something and fell against the
exixwcd portion of the wire. The wit
nesses were questioned close, !y with
n view of bringing out in what man
ner tho wires wore and whether or
not such ties or timbers ns wera
known to hnve been lying beside
the track could have caused Rhodes
to fall to his death.
Some people con believe whal they
want to, which has advantages aud
disadvantages.
