So long as the south produces cot
ton each year to the value of $780,

segregating or exporting the colored
man, for the south would go to the
dogs in ten years if Sambo and his
tribe should leave.

One brave step makes the next one

exactly easy, it becomes more interest
ing-one feels less inclined to grumble.

PROFIT

The matter of feed is of
tremendous Importance to the
farmer. Wrong feeding is
loss. Right feeding is profit.
The up-to-date farmer knows
what to feed his COWS to get
the most milk, his pigs to get
the most pork, his hens to
get the most eggs. Science.
But how about the children !?
Are they fed according to
science, a bone food if bones
are soft and undeveloped, a
flesh and muscle food if they
are thin and weakanda blood
food if there is anemia9
SCOTS Emulsion is a mixed
food; the Cod Liver Oil in it
makes flesh, blood and muscle,
the Lime and Soda make bone
and brain. 1t is the standard
scientific food for delicate
children.

LIETENANT GOVERNOR
HAGGOTT RIGHT MAN

The daily papers of Denver give
us to understand that Lieutenant
Governor Haggott has lost no time
in making stand. The people of
Clear Creek county did not doubt
for a moment that this would be
the case. He is not a man who is
hysterical or liable to make move
until he believes he is making it in
the direction of good government
and in the rendering of duty that
he owes to the general public and
to his party.
Goebel rules will not effect him
nor will they serve to deter him
from the line of action mapped out.
Siftings predicted that Clear Creek
county would furnish the proper
man for the position of presiding
officer of the senate, and it begins
to look as if the prediction would
be verified.
We are opposed to revolutionary
tactics, but if it is necessary to meet
them with force in order that the
right shall triumph, the man is
cowardly who turns back and fails
to do his whole duty. Mr.. Haggott
will not turn back. He will be in
the front, standing up for the right
and for the people, the rights of
good government and the rights of
his party as long as there is "any-
thing doin' to use a slang express
sion.
He has not hesitated to express
himself SO that his stand in the
matter cannot be mistaken. Tied
to no element of the party, swad-
died by no political ambitions and
free lance in every respect, there
is no reason why he should not
make splendid record for himself
and for the party during the pres
ent session.
