He is the best man because his brain
and Drawn have been used in develop
ing the natural resources Of this state,
thereby making the world better for his
having lived. He is the best man be-
cause his industry. thrift and stick to-lt-
1yeness have, IN great measure, brought
about the development of what is
known as Southern Colorado.
AS rough and readp rancher he has
made many blade of grass grow where
formerly flourished naught but the sage
brush and cactus. His bitterest enemies
are unable to unearth dishonorable act
committed by William 81. Meyer in all
the long years of his residence in this
state. His home is an ideal one, OF
happy children, devoted wife, and all
that can be taken to indicate the good
citizen and honorable man.
The people of his own immediate To-
cality are the ones best fitted to judge
of him as man and citizen; his neigh
bors and fellow townsmen, are his heart
lest supporters.
A personal acquaintance of several
years enables me to say that Williem d..
Meyer is man who will at least DO
what is fair with worklngmen's interests.
Sentiments expressed in times gone by
and before political possibilities had
opened for HIM, assure me that he
is the only candidate in the field who
can consistently say to workingmen, u
ask your support, believing that 1 am
entitled to it."
Let all workingmen examine the
records of fhe three candidates for gov
ernor-examine them well-and the
issue will not be unfavorable to Billy
Never.

THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY.

The public press of the country has
given nearly everything of general IN

it is not necessary for this paper to re-
hash it. After session of over two
weeks the General Assembly left undone
great MANY things which are needed
and dem snded by the order and, l am
sorry to say, did several things which
will hardly rebound to the benefit of the
cause of labor organization. The action
OF the assembly upon the relationship of
the order to trades unions was not in
the true spirit of an industrial brother.

BlLLE MEY ER.

Why is Billy Never worthy the vote
of every workingman in the state of Col
oIado?
The first if not the greatest reason is
because he is the best man nominated
for governor. Ofcourse it NAV be said
that that Is mere statement which any
one can makein regard to any candidate
But in making this statement in con-
nection with William II. Meyer, it does
not assume the status of a mere state
ment when good logical arguments are
brought forward to demonstrate the
truth Of the proposition.
He is the best man because he has,
since oming to this state, been in the
ranks of the producing class. He has
not, like his opponent, stood in the ranks

\ GREAT change in public opinion was
produced by the speeches of Spies,

to counteract this change by causing

to be Anarchists headquarters. What

God writes his word on flowery fields,

And chant its chorus DER and Ger.

And gorges never trod by man,

With "warp and woof' OF fGod'sgreat plan

While he, Gods last and noblest work,
His "birthright has for pottage sold"
Fallen from his grand estate,
Down into selfhoods dark abyss;

To eat the fruit of selfishness.

The opponents of Mr.. Never take
particular delight in prophecving that
the Third ward, of thls city, will give
Adamas a majority. Why? Because
Capital Hill is in that ward, and the
aristocrats are down on plain, every =

ten that the lower end of the Third
