DENVER DRYS PUT TO TEST IN CAMPAIGN Democratic Candidate to Make Race for Congress on Wet Plank. Bu United Press DENVER, Oct. 28.—Definite test of the strength of prohibition in one of the dryest States in the Union, together with some indication of A1 Smith’s following in a western State, are factors in whjs?- tsraaiises to be on eof the hottest election campaigns Denver has seen for many years. What began as a purely local question—the election of a Congressman to succeed the late William N. Vaile—has' taken on national significance because of the action of the Democratic district convention in denouncing the Volstead act and demanding its modification. Republican Quits Race Following adoption of their modification plank, the Democrats nominated Judge S. Harrison White, former chief justice of the Colorado Supreme Court, as their candidate. White accepted the issue squarely and is attacking operation of the Volstead act. Republicans nominated Finlay L. McFarland, auto dealer and capitalist, in a convention dominated by United States Senator Lawrence Phipps, but after six days as a candidate McFarland withdrew. He gave ill health as the reason. State Senator Francis J. Knauss was then selected as Republican standard bearer. Knauss, a strong Phipps supporter and formerly one of the leaders in the Ku-Klux Klan faction in the State Legislature, has announced himself as a dry. While thus raising the dry banner, Republicans here are in a peculiar position because Phipps, the

party leader, has been branded as a “wet” Senator by Colorado prohibition leaders. ( He voted against the anti-beer law in Congress, and some months ago a sensation was created in the State by stories that a shipment of twelve cases of liquor, consigned to Phipps, had been seized in Maryland. The story was printed by almost all Colorado newspapers and never denied by Phipps. In his last campaign for re-elec-tion, Phipps was denounced by A. J. Finch, superintendent of the Colorado Anti-Saloon League, as a wet, and dry pamphlets were circulated throughout the State attacking him. Local ministers have dwelt at length on the fact that the Democratic convention which adopted the anti-Volstead plank contained a majority of women. Only 45 per cent of the delegates were men. The modification plank passed by a vote of 805 to 262. Each side is accusing the other of building up a big campiagn fund to use in the prohibition battle. Denver is normally Republican, but Democratic hopes are high, because both the State and city addiminstrations are at present Democratic. 4 Governor William Adams, elected last fall on local Issues, immediately jumped into the fight, declaring that the Volstead act is a failure and does not promote real temperance. It was his first declaration for modification and strengthened White’s candidacy greatly. The special election will be held Nov. 15.

RAMSAY 0. K. TO GO ON PAY ROLL Cones to Sign as Controller; Tests Negley Rule. A test of Claude E. Negley’s power as mayor besides that which he wfll undergo Saturday, when hearing upon the petition to make the restraining order against his rival, Ira L. Holmes, appeared imminent today, through acts of Negley’s controller, Frank Cones. Cones declared that he would send through to City Treasurer Edward A. Ramsay ? number of city vouchers with Cones’ signature as controller. 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 administration from expending a single penny, since the treasurer’s signature must be on the checks with the controller’s. Ramsay said he would honor the checks signed by Cones, on advice of County Attorney Clinton H. Givan. who is advising the Negley administration upon every step. It was regarded as possible that the Holmes supporters would start some legal action.
