Loan association does not charge as
much on given amount borrowed as
outside associations charge, and it also
pays larger dividend on account OF less
expensive management.
Experience has demonstrated to a
number Of our best citizens (whose names
we have) that the liberal promises made
by travelling agents, who talk TOR the
dollars there are in it, are not carried
out. This they have found out to their
sorrow.
The Mesa County Building & Loan
association will show to any of it's mem
bers or to those contemplating making
loans that it has been, and is doing bet

statements of outside associa tions show
that they can do.

Truated TaliAmans.

The superstition of talismans is one
that dies very hard, and crops up in
the most unexpected places. A writer
in the Gaulois gives some particulars
of the talismans worn by crowned
heads at the present day, which may
be true, and are certainly interesting.
The Shah of Persia wears as protec
tion against assassination q belt set
with a superb emerald and filled with
peelings Of onion, the latter being, as
he says, evidently intended to move
the tears of would-be assassits. The
emir of Afghanistan wears with the
same intention a silver ring, while
the king OF Greece has had the bullet
which lodged in the panel OF his car
riage the last time he was fired at
mounted as a charm for his watch
chain. Perhaps the most curious Of
royal or Quasi-royal talismans was the
Abraxas gem, showing the cock-head
ed deity OF the gnostic heretics, worn
by Charles Edward Stuart Although
1t may have preserved him from assas-
sination, 1T did not prevent him from
dying of drink and dissipation.-Pall

ing of the employment OF outside

from his conversation that, he had

1t was because council had mani>

The aldermanic ticket presented
by the Taxpayers convention is a
thoroughly clean one. Its candi-
dates are men with whom all are
acquainted and who enjoy the un-
bounded respect Of everybody.
The ticket stands w. T. Dowrey in
the First ward; G. A. Olsen in the
Second ward; David I. Clark in
the Third ward, and c. P. holland
in the Fourth ward. If any have
aught to say against these, many OF
their good friends OF years standing
would like to hear it. Every man
thereon is property owner, sue
cessful business man, gentleman
and one who only accepts the nom
ination as a duty he owes to his
citizenship and not because he
wants the office.

The Puerto Ricans are becom-
ing riotous. The residents of the
island, agitated over tariff measures
and suffering for the lack of food,
are getting decidedly restless. 1t
may be necessary for the Mckinley
administration to send soldiers to
that island again to "kill off a few
more natives" The sugar trusts
control Hawaii and Puerto Rice,
while Mark Hanna controls Me-
Kinley. Hanna stands in with the
trusts and whatever he says goes.
The Puerto Rico tariff measure is
bitterly condemned by leading men

Four better men could not have
been selected for aldermanic honors
than those gentlemen who consti-
tute the aldermanic portion Of the
taxpayers ticket. They are thor>
ough going business men, not ward
politicians. They have had busin>
ess careers and know how business
is conducted. What they are not,
is ward politicians. They are not
candidates of their own seeking,
but because, as representative a
convention as ever met to select
men for public Office, selected these
men to be the standard bearers
OF the tax payers ticket. They
have not been selected because
they are good fellows, or because
they have never opened their
mouths in praise or condemnation
of anyone or anything, but be-
cause they are men of minds of
their own, who cannot be pulled
and hauled around as if they were
puppets on the stage. Here is the

them.

call the conductors attention, but they

why didn't you stop when holered at
