The wealth of ourcounty is in its lands,
and the men who will develop this wealth
and make our section rich and prosper
Gus, are the farmers. 1t is not only right,
but good policy therefore, to protect and
foster their interests. There is no class
who at the present time are more justly
complaining of the burdens Of taxation,
than our ranchmen. Recognizing these
facts, the republican party promptly
nominated one of their representatives

Not word caa be said against the candidates
who constitute the democratic ticket. That
ticket is the intelligent choice Of the voters OF
Sparks.
Bless your soul, neighbor, we haven't
said anyth ing against them. The boys
are all good fellows, and to be candid, we
feel sorry for them. That is all right, it
is the last part of the item we can't un-
derstand, but suppose it was intended
for Joke
The Lamar register., 1891-10-24

Both parties are to be congratulated
upon the character of the men who rep
resent them as candidates this fall, and
on the marked contrast between the pres
ent campaign, and that OF one year ago.
1t is well enough for us'all to remember,
that because a man differs from us in pol
itics, he is not necessarily, either knave
or a fool. We are going to do the boys
on the other side up in great shape this
hitch, but while we are doing it, we will
treat them like gentlemen.

The Usual Roorback.

We were wondering if the Sparks was
going to let this campaign slip by with
out getting out its usual roorback, and
pursuing its usual course. In this in
stance it has attacked Assessor Stewart
who is candidate for reelection,
and cites the assessment OF the First
National Bank of Lamar, as an instance
when he made too low valuation.
Now, one Of the editors and proprietors
of the Sparks is an attorney, and be
knows that under the law, the pres
ident, cashier or principal accounting Of
ficer Of this institution is required to list
the property of the bank and return it
to the assessor under oath, who receives
the same and if in his judgment the
valuation is placed too low it is his duty
to call the attention of the board of coun-
ty commissioners, sitting as board Of
equalization, to it.
The First National Bank of this place
returned it's assessment as provided by
law. Mr. Stewart called the attention of
the board of equalization to it. The board
then acted on this matter and their votes
are a matter of record.
II the assessment is too low, as it
stands, it certainly cannot be charged to
Mr.. Stewart. He made no distinction
between the banks schedule and those Of
individuals All schedules were received
alike, and they were then passed upon
by the board Of equalization Those valu-
atoms that in their opinion were too low,
were raised, and if in this instance the
action of the board of equalization was
wrong, it cannot be charged to partisan
reasons by any means, for one Of the re-
publican commissioners voted to raise it,
while democrat and a republican com
missioner voted against it. Now for their
next roorback.

Those democratic candidates who are
publicly boasting that they have enough
republican votes pledged to them to in
sure their election, are showing it seems
to us, extremely poor political Judgment,
and worse taste. Let US see. The county
is republican by 100 majority. These
modest fellows are claiming Therefore to
control at last so republican votes in ad-
dition to all OF their own. Is there man
in the county of any political faith, who
credits such rot? But if there Is ten, or
even one who contemplates such course,
how does he relish the knowledge that
these men are publicly Boosting that
they control his ballot. These reports
are sent broadcast over the county, not
only to help the Individual candidate, but
for the purpose OF strengthing the whole
ticket. And such is the effect, 30 that a
republican who might feel like support
ing some one man on the other ticket,
finds that his kindness is being abused
and used to the injury OF his entire tick
ct and his party.
The Lamar register., 1891-10-24
eIunder of the Bosses.

The democratic party have but two or
three men to thank for the awkward and
ridiculous position in which they now
find themselves. Its convention instead
of nominating at first north side ranch
man for commissioner, as 1t should have
done, thereby recognizing those men who
are the bone and sinew, as well as the
future hope of the county, put in nomi-
nation a merchant of Lamar. Personally
the gentleman SO nominated is in every
way above reproach, but he did not want
the office and SO stated publicly, giving
as his reason, that his business would not
allow him if elected, to give the office
the attention its Importance demanded.
1t would seem as if this should have been
sufficient, and it would if the interests of
the county had been sought, and the
nomination placed elsewhere. But dis
regarding the wishes of the farmers, and
the interests of the county, the bosses
forced the nomination of Mr.. Acuf in his
absence. His pre-emptory refusal upon
his return to run, left the party in weak
and embarrassing position, to put it mild
ly. 1t comes now with poor grace, when
defeat is certain, to tender the empty
honor to Mr.. Thurston. The whole
transaction must be mortifying to the
party, for it is in effect, an affront to the
farmers at the county. 1t was manipu-
lated at first, not in the interest of the
democratic party, or of the county, but
for the personal aggrandizement of two or
three men.
We have nothing but kind words for
Mr.. Thurston. That he did not want the
nomination and was 10th to accept it in
the way it finally came to him, is to his
credit, but had he-refused it altogether,
his action would have been approved by
a majority Of his party. Had he been
nominated at first, he would have made q
very creditable showing, but as it now
is, his alleged friends are leading him like
lamb to the slaughter.
The Lamar register., 1891-10-24

II any special incentive was needed to
induce republicans to vote their ticket
straight this fall, it would be found in the
fact that next year the presidential cleo
criminality for republicans to assist in
putting democrats into Office that they
would hole. through presidential cam
paign. The advantages thus given by
republicans, would be returned: against
them with disastrous effect.

The Sparks in closing its compliment
ary notices of its candidates remarks in
every case that their election is assured,

The republicans are all pulling together
in this campaign. Difference are being
forgotten, jealousies and personal likes
and dislikes are being thrust aside, and
the ticket will receive cordial support the
county over. From every precinct comes
the cheerful assurance. that tho ticket
will poll substantially the full party
strength. This is as it should be. =.

our Denver Friends.

Two weeks ago an article on "FaI
Wheat" was printed in the REGISTER
that was written by a gentleman who
lives in Prowers county. The article was
marked: written for the REGISTER. !"
Last week the Denver Field and Farm
copied the article entire and gave cor
respondent from Bent county to the LA
NAB REeIsrER credit for it. Another
place in the same issue it locates Grana-
da in Baca county. Almost every week
the Field and Farm has some notice Of
Prowers county facts or farmers, and it
invariably credits them to Bent or some
other county besides Prowera. Tho
name of Prowers county has never or
rarely ever appeared in it.
Now this same Field and Farm is as it
claims, devoted to the agricultural in
terests of the great west" and is desig-
mated as "the legal journal in Colorado
for the publication Of estray notices, etc" !"
And it claims to be the representative
agricultural paper of Colorado.
If it will look the matter up it will find
that Prowers county, although organized
but two years ago, is not the smallest
county in the State as regards wealth, and
advancement by some twenty odd, and
when agricultural interest alone are con-
sidered it ranges very near the top OF
the list.
Ihls great agricultural 1ournal GER
tainly does not ignore Prowers county on
account of ill-will, or determination not
to aid this section in its agricultural ad-
vancement, for that would be malicious,
and it will hardly plead guilty to that
charge.
Nor would we want to accuse it OF be-
ing of revengeful disposition on ac-
count Of some real or fancied grievance
it may have against some OF our citizens
for that would be spiteful, and this great
agricultural representative journal GER
tainly will not admit spite.
1t is neither spite Or malice SO it must
be ignorance. That paper has been run
for ten or twelve year and the editor
must still go by the old MAP of the State.
He hasn't heard Of the new counties OF
Colorado, and probably does not know
that this territory became State about
Is years ago.
The Arizond Kicker once announced
that 1t had employed Sailor Bob" as its
agricultural editor, and that it had sent
him out to a ranch SO that he could learn
the difference between jack rabbit and
head of cabbage. Now if this g. A. L.
will send its editor out and by some ac-
cident he would learn to distinguish be-
tween a map of Colorado and plow
handle he would loose the last and only
excuse he may have for ignoring the
magic name of Prowers.
The Lamar register., 1891-10-24

The claim is being made, the wish being
father to the thought, that the republi-
cans of Granada will not stand Loyalty by
their ticket. Don't let such stories dis
turb any republican in this end of the
county. The republicans Of Granada are
republicans, and they will vote their
ticket-they are built that way. The
story is only weak invention of the
enemy.

Some OF our democratic friends are

Morton J. Underwood, the republican

1t may be true that certain democrats
carry the votes of fifty republicans in
their vest pocket as they claim, but We
don't think there are ten republicans in
the county who believe it.
