IT would seem that even senator
BILLY" Adams is tired of the un-
just treatment he and other politi-
cal aspirants receive at the hands
of the dear people, during cleo
ton campaigns. To do away with
at least part of such expense the
senator has introduced the fellow
ing bill amending the election law
so as ito make it a punishable Of
fense for candidates to promise any
office or employment to voters or
to use carriages for hauling voters
to and from the polls" The carry
ing out of the first provision, that
of promising Office or employment,
is not possible; the intent and let
ter Of the law would not EN- mbarass
the politician. The latter clause
is, however, one that should be-
come part of the law, and strict
ly enforced. Under the present in
iquitous system the expense en-
tailed in the work of canvassing
for the registration of voters is, if
possible, even greater than that in

Unless the present system is done
away with, the inevitable result
will be little better than the policy
of selling the Office to the highest
bidder, and then efficiency will not

He hurried to the case of drawers,
where he knew clean cloths were kept,
but this drawer also stuck. yet with one
tremendous pull he succeeded in open

found, which afterwards proved to be
one of the best towels-he had opened
the wrong drawer.

in going after more wood he became
aware of the paucity of the woodpile.
The hasty pudding "sputtered" and
burnt the back of his hand; il tasted
raw. too, and the coffee somehow did
not seem much like Polly's, so he did
not enjoy his bachelor breakfast ms
much os he had anticipated. After
clearing away the table he looked fixed

He attacked IT with great energy, and
succeeded in removing the last vestige
of the polish, but in drying the spot he
run a splinter under his thumb, a splin-

growled. as he jabbed away at the re-

last installment. he clasred his bands

"IN UNION is STRENGTH"

The value of unanimity of pur-
pose and concerted action was
forcefully demonstrated by the re-
suits of the united efforts of the
people to prevent an epidemic of
smallpox. The disease was precip-
itated into our midst without warn
ing, and the worst possible conse-
quences were feared. Prompt
action was, however, taken by the
authorities to prevent the spread
of the disease and a possible panic
and in this they had the unani-
nous support of the citizens OF
Florence. The people were unit
on every measure inaugurated, and
the result was an almost phenome-
nal escape from the threatened
plague. Had there been strife and
contention, and had portion OF
the citizens refused to comply with
the requirements, the results could
hardly have been any but the mosi
disastrous
The rule applies to matters
other than the case referred to-
The old adage, In Union is
Strength" is n truth as eternal as
the universe, and may be aptly APP
piled equally in matters small and
great. Let there be united effort
among business men of Florence
to place our city in the foremost
rank of possibilities, and success
cannot but reward the endeavor.
There have been many dissen-
tions in the past. Personal i'll
feeling has engendered strife which
was baneful to business interests,
and from such instances the public
has always suffered
That a more harmonious .senti-
ment now prevails must be patent
to everyone. That there is an
earnest desire in the mind of every
one to see Florence hustling,
bustling, prosperous city also goes
without question. Now, just as
united effort brought about the
most gratifying results in the
smallpox matter, just SO will it
prove the shiboleth of our success
in bringing Florence up to the full
limit of our hopes. Let there be
perfect harmony, answering con-
fdence, concentration of purpose,
concerted action, intense energy,
aud it will be seen in due time
that the strength of union will
prevail.

THE Colorado Fuel and Iron
company has recently closed .
contract with iron interests of Wy
oming for the delivery of not less
than 10000 tons of iron ore for
one year, and the option gives the
Wyoming people the right to ship
100000 if they can produce that
much. The contract is made for
a twenty years term. The most
of the iron will be treated at the
Pueblo works.

IT is interesting to note the diff
ferent expressions of opinion in
regard to the proposed electric
road. The prevailing sentiment
however seems to be that it is not
all talk, but that a survey would
hardly be made at an expense of
several hundred dollars if the pro-
moters of the scheme did not
mean business.
There are some men who are of
the opinion that the road would
afford the most benefits to our sis
ter city up the valley. Upon what
such a calculation is founded is
not known. Florence will never
suffer from Canon competition,
nor from any special attractions
which that city can produce.
