with the Democrats. There is no
doubt considerable opposition to Mr..
Wolcott in some quarters. Some
have thought it best to send another
man in his place.
But all recognize his great ability
and high standing in the affairs Of
the country and if vote of Republi-
cans could be taken we dare say 90 per
cent would very much prefer him to
the best Democrat that ever lived in
Colorado.

considering the intense prejudice of

demu anybody. If Messrs Stewart.

electing Republican to the United

ing with the Democrats may be vindi-
Gated.
But if they fail. and let Demo-
crat succeed Senator Teller they will

lodge Campbell for Senator

It begins to look as II none of the
prominently mentioned senatorial
candidates could be elected even IL
the Republicans of the legislature
could be- gotten together.
Messrs. Goudy, Dixon and Howbert
have combined to make the election
of Senator wolcott impossible. And.
with this fact in view,it is not likely
that Senator Wolcott's friends will
even let either enjoy the honors. At
any rate such is the talk.
So people are looking for new ma
terial.
Chief Justice John Campbell has
been suggested as man on whom all
factions could unite.
We believe that better selection
could not be made.
For nearly nine years Mr.. Campbell
has served on the supreme bench of
the state. In all that time his hon
esty. ability and integrity has never
been questioned. He has made a
record as Judge enjoyed by but few.
As a man, as a statesman. and Re-
publican. he stands head and should
ers above others in the senatorial
class.
Judge Campbell is big mana
young IN An, with lots Of ability aud
energy. If selected he would be II
credit to the party and an honor to the
state.

working with the Democrats in the

was one of that few who found pleas
urc in voting the straight Republican
ticket in 1895 when most of those
who are inclined to criticise were
working actively for the Democratic
ticket. Mr.. Meserve has been con-
stant Republican and his Fremont

disappointed IL he had voted with the
Democrats ON organization or any

Question of Improvement

With the beginning Of each new
year many questions arise concerning
the public welfare Of community.
Many improvements are agitated and
many more are made. Canon City is
no exception TO this.
Already improvements are being
pushed in this beautiful city which
will materially assist in placing this
town in the forefront of Colorado
towns. Most of these improvements
call for the expenditure OF large sums
Of money. Much Outside capital will
find its way into this town because Of
these projected improvements.
There is one decided improvement
which will be as important to the
welfare of Canon City as any which
are under wav, and one which will be
Of more lasting benefit to the town
and its inhabitants than any which
CanÌƒon City record. [volume] (CanÌƒon City, Colo.) 1883-192?, 1903-01-15
have been promoted,


And
That Is
The spending OF money at home.
And this means
Trading with the home merchants
and throwing aside the big DEPART
ment store catalogues.
This is an improvement which can
be made by the town at large without
the expenditure OF single cent Of
money and without the floating Of
bonds.
If every man. woman and child in
Canon City would resolve to do this
one thing for twelve months there
would ever afterward be continuous
prosperity in this town.
Think this over.
Then try this plan.
Each and every one will be bene-
fitted.
