To the Voters Of Canon City.
The Taxpayers Party hereby formu-
latesand announce the platform on
which they stand, and pledge the full
fillment thereof:
Since all forms of government
should exist for the protection of the
governed, we shall oppose the expen-
diture of any public moneys not ne
cessary for the honest and economi-
cal administration of the city's affairs.
We propose the refunding of the
city's debt SO as to save 2 or 8 per
cent. We are in favor of appropri-
ating SO much of what is known as
the Water Fund as may be necessary
for the Improvement of our system of
water works, SO that our people may
enjoy the luxury of an abundance of
clear, pure soft water at all times.
We demand an improvement in sew
erage, sidewalks, street crossings and
bridges.
We promise to cooperate with the
Board of Health in the cleansing of
alleys and premises.
We agree that 8 hours shall con-
stitute a days work for all laborers,
workmen, mechanics, and other per-
SONS employed by and on behalf of the
city, to the end that the working man
shall be afforded the same opportunity
for educating his children and enjoy
ing the comforts of home with his
family as his more favored neighbor.
We declare in favor of a rigid en-
forcement Of high license laws, under
the strictest police surveillance.
We propose managing the most per-
picking questions affecting our moral
well being in such a conservative man
ner that the good order and name of
our city shall continue to attract
those seeking a most perfectly gov
erned community in which to build
homes and rear their families.
Our citizens are TO be congratulate
ed over an unusual dawn of progress,
and our action at the coming election
should be wisely considered, so as not
to check the upward turn of events,
and to continue this era of improve
ment is the special mission of the
Taxpayers Party.
We ask the cooperation of the
voters of Canon City who believe in
reducing the burdens of taxation and
guaranteeing equal rights to all and
special privileges to none. good gov
ernment and progress.

The play abounds in neat speeches,
its characters to those who have read
the book are familiar from the first;
its scenes carry with them the pretti-
ness Of the theme. leaving nothing
lacking In the telling. There are no
tears. SO essential it has been fancied
to produce heart interest," but the
merry laughter, and ROBUSTNESS of
Babbie' are SO winning, that if at
times consistency is strained, it is
forgiven.
J. NJ. Barrie who has made the
dramatization of The Little Minister
from his famous novel of that name.
has given US 1t is said. one of the
prettiest plays ever seen. Certainly
no play produced in many years has
achieved the wonderful success this
one has. We often hear of the re-
markable success of plays in New
York. and other large cities, and Of
the phenomenal engagements they
play. And no doubt but all that
has been said regarding The Little
Minister is true. Its run in New
York of 800 performances, and every
one with audiences that taxed the
theatres is feat that would be hard
to duplicate. Since it has been seen
out of that city it has done a remark
able business. Everywhere the same
story is told, every seat sold- before
the company arrives. 1t will be seen
at the opera house Monday evening.

An odd sort of contrivance and one

handles, somewhat like those of a
glove stretcher or a curling tongs. and
held in one hand in the same manner.
The fan is three-hladed and about six
inches in diameter. and IN appearance
Ike an electric fan II is protected By
a guard in the same way. and in ap-
peraHes like an electric fan. 1. is
protected by a guard in the same way.
and the guard and the fan itself are
collspsiole. SO that when not in use
the eontriyanee can be folded into a
comparatively small compass. In use
the fan turns on a spindle to which
Is attached a very simple gearing that
IS operated by pressure upon the two
handles. When the handles have been
pressed together a spring attached
opens them out again ready for anoth-
er pressure. The rotation of the fan
Is continuously in the same direction,
like that OF any rotary fan. and it
turns st a high speed. This fan is
used for the ordinary purposes OF

"The Little Minister"

When New York has placed the
stamp of approval upon play it does
not always mean that it will be sue
cessful elsewhere. The exception
which proves the rule, however, is
without doubt 1.-THE Little Minister" /"
and the hearty welcome that has been
accorded the wonderful play every
where, shows that its success has been
a solid one. Those who have read the
book may wonder how such material
could be thrashed into form for play.

was stolen were found locked and bolted on the inside No suspicious noises were heard There appeared to be no clue until 1886. Joseph Elliott, then under arrest for large forgery, asserted that the Gainsborough picture was still in exist ence and could be recovered provided his liberty was granted. Elliott said the picture had been stolen by professional porch climbers" Before the plan could be completed, however, the forger was given his liberty on a technicality.
 Negotiations were later made with the thieves to return the painting for large reward, but they fell through. Recently trace was found of the thieves and nego- tiations reopened A large reward was offered. which resulted in the return of the picture in Chicago. When returned the picture was dramatically sealed in a box, and after It's reception was pro- nounced in perfect condition.
 The picture was identified by MT. Az new.
 The forgers who were responsible tor the stealing of the picture are said to have operated under the leadership of Charles Becker, who is now serving c term in the California State prison for forgery.

meaning but od-fashoned and ignorant preparations-have been tried and found futile.
 Paine's celery compound was first pre- scribed by Prof Edward E. Phelps, M. D., ILL D., of Dartmouth College, in his private practice. It has been recommend ed by learned specialists in nervous dis eases. By its merit alone 1t has earned the highest commentators from physi- clans, the press and the public. It not only regulates the nervous system. but nourishes it; sends more and better blood to supply the wasted nerves and takes the killing strain off the kidneys.
 When pains appear in different parts of the body and one feels tired and de- pressed the use of Paine's celery com pound will drive away the rheumatism pain or the attack of indigestion and cor rect the failing appetite, which keeps pace so closely with the digestive pow CTS
 Paines celery compound has proved itself to be the most advanced remedy yet discovered for tired brains and worn out nerves.
 Nerve tension is disguised under a good many symptoms that lead thoughtless persons to apply some useless local rem edy when the only lasting relief will come from purified blood, kidneys aroused to work, stomach secreting abundance of di- gestive juices and toned-up state of the nerves.
 For all this there is no need of further proof as to the value of Paine's celery compound than can be furnished by the readers own neighbors If one will take the pains to make inquiries.
 The best test of the worth of Paine's celery compound is to use 1t yourself.
