l..ins n...e.on 10, President.

Levina c. Matteson, he OF es-
sence OF ant sting notoriety, filed
the following announcement"
with the county clerk last Monday
morning. II is dated "Iia6, 1900,
8 a. M" The date OF fling is a
little previous, but II IS probably
owing TO the fact that Levina
does not wish TO take any undue
advantage OF his fellow citizens,
and is willing 10 give them all a
fair show and an equal footing by
posting the date OF his announce
ment for a fcw days The an
nouncement reads as follows;
ASouScEMENT.
hearewith announce my self for
a candidate for the Office of Presi-
dent of the United States, on the
Republican ticket, in the year
1904. trusting to the people Tor
the nomination.
l.. C. MAIrssoN,
La unta Colo.
II 40. 1900, 8 a m.
The document is endorsed on
the back as follows:
Il leave the following space for
the other candidate. ! hope IT
will be some person that IS not
bound down by secret societies.
From the endorsement Levina
evidently believes that he will
have but one opponent, as he
leaves fling space only "for the
other candidate" He displays
rare good judgment in selecting
the republican party as the hacker
of his candidacy, as recent history
has demonstrated the fact that that
party is the only sure winner. The
The campaign for 1904 is on, with
Levina in The lead.

Question Answered.

Yes. August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine IN the
civilized world. Your mothers and
grandmothers never thought OF
using anything else for indigestion
or biliousness. Doctors were very
scarce and seldom heard OF appsn-
dicitis, nervous prostrat,on or heart
failure, etc. They used August
Flower TO clean out the system and
stop fermentation OF undigested
food, regulate the action OF the
liver, stimulate the nervous and or
ganic action oi the system, and
that is all they took when feeling
dull aud bad with headaches and
other aches. You only need few
doses of Green's August Flower,
in liquid form, to make you salts
fed there is nothing serious the
matter with you. For sale at
Finney's pharmacy.

LAsr week we received copy fro,

LAST week we received copy from
a big house in Pueblo to run an
advertisement for them for which
they offered TO pay us about double
the rates paid us by our home
merchants. They also asked for
figures on half page advertise
ment. This advertisement was OF
the same business as local firms
who patronizc us and in justice to
them we refused the foreign adv,
although the rates were much
larger. We have had numerous
opportunities, but we will not ad
vertise foreign houses that COM
pete with local firms who are lib
eral advertisers in the TRIBuNe.
Advertising fakirs, however, find
some of our local merchants the
easiest kind OF graft. They seem
to bite at every fake that is sprung
upon them with such eagerness
that we are seriously contemplate
ing going out of the newspaper
business, and engaging in fake ad-
vertising schemes exclusively.
There is money in it in La Junta.
Last week a bill OF fare fakir
struck the town. He secured a
franchise from one of our leading
merchants to supply his restaur-
ant with celluloid covers for bills

covered with advertisements OF our
leading merchants, the spaces
being sold at prices ranging from

The returns from the various
counties OF the Twenty third sena
tonal district show that Fred A.
Sabin ran over 800 votes behind
the head OF his ticket in Otero
county, where a number OF demo-
Gratis and populists opposed him
1t is gratifying to know that he re-
ceived the full party vote in Prov
ers county, running even with
Bryan. In kiowa and Baca
counties he ran slightly ahead
OF his ticket. - Lamar Sparks
