A Friend of Labor.

"Aman Moore, the Republican candidate will be bad

Mr.. Moore alw favored long hours for his
poyes and that he is little in sympathy with the man
who works for wages. This argument will have much
weight with the majority OF voters OF the county and r

the question of long hours for labor Mr.

The Democratic candidate conducts little store.
He employs three four at the minimum salary.

except Saturday when four five hours more are ad
What he done for labor for the county?
Aman Moore found barren tract of land in Free
county that had been unproductive and absolutely
worthless.
He interest ed eastern capital and built cement
plant which employees small army Of people He pays
good wages is paid in Colorado for such work He
pays much than is paid to such plants in Kan
that for months at time owing to
this competition with cheap labor his plant has
been run at a loss.
Aman Moore has paid more money into the hands OF
labor this county than Mcclure will pay in thousand
years and Mr. Moores cheapest paid men probably get
about much per day as McGuire's best paid help.
incidentally it might be mentioned that Mr.. Moore's
enterprise pays into the county treasury $35 taxes
Mr. Moore is the best kind of friend Of labor and

against Theodore Roosevelt for pres
ident, will at the same time insult their
own intelligence and do violence to
their own judgment and betray their
own int rests by voting against the
same principles and policies which
Roosevelt stands for in their own state
Of Colorado.
This is a paradsxical state of mind
and hard to understand. No doubt
prejudice and the misrepresentation
OF interruptions demagogues are re-
sponsible for this abnormal state Of
mind which so blinds some people to
their own interests and the interests
OF the state in which they live. For
tunately, however. this class of people
10 small, and they will do no harm
other than the outrage which they
commit upon their own intelligence
and Judgment. The great majority of
the people Of Colorado are blessed with
normal vision, and can easily see that
their interest, the interests Of Colora-
do, and Of the nation are one, and win
cast their ballots accordingly.

BATS MIGHT Be
A GOOD THING

The Planters Monthly says: We are
in receipt of communication from
Mr.. w. j. Lowrie of Central Agurre,
Porto Rico, in reference to the importa-
ton of bats into the islands for the
purpose of controlling certain of our in
sect pests, such as the mole cricket
Mr.. Lowrie is favorably remembered
as the former manager of our two larg-
est sugar plantations-Ewa and Hawai- d.
ian Commercial and Sugar Co.-and
knowing the conditions under which
sugar cane is grown here, is well able
to express an opinion upon the subject.
Mr.. Lowrie says:
In the Planters Monthly for June
| notice that you have quite an article
on the Changa, or Mole Cricket, taken
from Bulletin No. of the Porto Rico
Agricultural Experiment Station by o.
w. Barrett.
1T is true that here on the south
side of the Island of Porto Rico there
are Changes, but still l have noticed
and seen very little damage done by
them. Some of the old planters here,
Spaniards and Porto Ricans, tell me
that they We're brought here years ago
in cargoes of guano, but | have forgot
ten the name of the island they came
from.
In this connection. l notice in the
Hawaiian Star of June 81, an article
on the question of Bats for the Island,
and they say that Professor Perkins
thinks they viii not thrive in Hawaii.

there are millions OF them everywhere.
They have enormous caves of bat gu-
