Celina o.. Oct. 19.-At Celina the recep-
said in part:
This Is one OF the states in which an
important campaign is being carried on
this fall, and this election is not only i'm
portant because you choose your state Of
ficers this year, but because the verdict at
the polls will be accepted as your opinion
upon the issues which are now before the
public. Some one has likened government
to a corporation in which every citizen is
a stockholder, which from time to time
elects its directors. Taking that idea Of
government, the stockholders can select a
new board Of directors when tney choose,
and the directors ought to protect the in
terests of the stockholders.

party have taken place since then. Abra-
ham Lincoln in 1859 wrote letter in which
he demonstrated that he believed in the
man first and The dollar afterwards. Since
those days the party has placed the dollar
first and the man afterward, and. IL you

has yividiy portrayed scenes about Mani

from Cripple Creek, aud somo OF the
mountain roadways described are typical
of the canons of the Crystal River coun

the dangerous quicksands Of mining
camps informal social life. PA isons and
impulse, coupled with fortuas and inAu
ence, moving in the free social atmos-
rhare, is vivid and faithful. 1t shows all
too well how the siren with the light
OF her wlnton eyes lures men thrown
into new surroundings. from paths of
honor. 1t paints scene which most OF
Us hsve witnessed: hos. a person Is lirst
shocked 81 lagrant violation, of social
ethics. then passiyely observe and finally

style OF the work is facts of local customs
