w. P. James, the republican candidate
for Commissioner of the 3rd District of
Prowers county, has been a resident of
this county over three years. He is a
level-headed farmer to whom the people
may safely entrust the affairs of the
county, and man who will be credit
to the office. He is the unanimous choice
of his party for that position and the
men who are best acquainted with him
regardless of party affiliations, give him
the very strongest endorsements. Mr..
James nomination was the result of the
determined efforts Of his neighbors and
friends, on the north side who rightly
consider that they should have represen-
ton on the board Of county commission
ers, and the county is to be congratulat-
ed on the fact that they have urged the
selection OF Mr.. James for that place.

Captain Billow is one Of the best known
men in the county. He drove his stakes
here in October, 1886, and since that time,
through good and evil report he has ever
been faithful to the interests of his town
and county. He was Prowers county's
first Sheriff, being appointed by Gov.
Cooper in 1888. At the close OF his term
he received the nomination for the office
from his party, and was beaten at the
polls, the county seat fight turning the
the scales against him. This defeat, how
ever, instead of weakening, only added
to his party zeal. He has always been a
tireless party worker, a true friend and a
public spirited citizen. No man among
us has given more freely of his time and
money for the good Of his party, his town
or his county. His disposition and pre-
vious training especially fits him for the
office. He will be elected, and will make

Morton ]. Underwood, the republican
nominee, for County Clerk and Recorder,
has been a resident of Lamar since 1886,
with the exception Of about eighteen
months, when he was called to Las Ami
mas, the then county seat OF this terrific
ry comprising part of old Bent county,
to act as clerk in the office of clerk and
recorder of Bent county. When Prowers
county was organized he was rendered
and accepted similar position as deputy
clerk here. When in 1880, democrat
took charge Of the office, recognizing the
ability and fitness OF Mr.. Underwood for
the place, he retained him in that posi-
tion which he now holds and SO satisfac
torily filled The office of county clerk
and recorder, is one requiring peculiar
adaptability and training. Besides a
thorough knowledge of bookkeeping
the man who fills that Office should be.
well posted on the laws OF conveyancing
and 'abstracting, the statues OF Colorado
and the county's affairs in general. Ev-
eryone, who is at all acquainted with NJ
]. Underwood, knows that he answers
this description in every particular. The
records of this county, wherever he has
traced pen, are perfect, and his know
ledge of our county affairs date back to
a time nearly two years before ProWers
county was organized and while it was
yet part of Bent. There is no uncer-
tainty about him, and his close attention
to the office in the past is positive as
surance that he will always be found on
duty whenever wanted.

The Pickcns High School.

This school has completed it's first
year under the management of Prof.
j. f. Dargan, and has proved q de-
cided success. There is no need for
any OF our young people going to a
distance to take n preparatory course
to fit themselves for college. The
promoters of this school have proven
b! their course in securing Prof.
Dargan as teacher, that it docs not
pay to get an adventurer or inexperi-
enced man to take charge of md
build up successful school. BY adj
vertising they secured capable
instructor, and guaranteeing him a
paving salary, they were enabled to
get the best and tho success Of the
school has been all that could be OK,
pccted of it, and the patronage has
paid all the expenses. Don't send
your children to a distance, but pat.
ronize your home school. It is as
good as any school III the State and
it will be cheaper to educate your
children here than elsewhere, as
board and other incidental expenses
will be less. Patronizc your home
institutions and build up your coun-
ty and community, especially do Sc
when you can secure as much OF
more than you get elsewhere for q
less outlay.

Christmas at I;asIoy..

The holiday was ushered in and
made grateful and happy, especially
to the children by, the Christmas tree
and Cnntata at the Academy on the
Oath. The triumphant success of
the Cantata is due to the consumate
skill and tact of Miss Ida Hartwell
the assistant teacher, and of Miss
Mary D. Riley, who kindly assisted.
The superb Christmas tree was thor
oughly enjoyed. The inimitable wit
and humor of Mr.. j. r. Haynes, who
personated Santa Claus, often con-
Vulsed the audience with laughter,
and he was applauded to the echo.
The children and young people will
long remember the festive occasion.
The recitations were oil we'll done and
thoroughly enjoyed. Prof. Baird GER
tainly has the gratitude of all for
having his school to contribute so
much to the holiday pleasures of the
community,
