Tenure of Office.

Much inquiry has been made as to
the number of county commissioners
to be elected this fall. Concerning
the matter the new amendment to
the constitution says:
1.-TWO Of the said commissioners
are to be elected at the general cleo
ton in the year 1904, and at the gem
eral election every four years there
after; and the other one of said
commissioners shall be elected at the
general election in the year 1905, and
at the general election every four
years thereafter"
The commissioner to hold over is
Mr.. Rector and his is the only cleo
tive Office in the county that is not
filled at the election this fall. The
county judge hereafter will be elected
for four years, other county officers
are elected every two years. at the

Senator Taylor Approved and
Indorsed.

That the Democrats Of Garfield
county recognize true merit in pub
lie official and are not ashamed to
say so, was conclusively shown by
their action in the county convention
held at New Castle last Saturday.
The convention passed and adopted
the best set of resolutions that has
come to our notice. They handled
the Republican administration in
just about the way that it ought to
be done; their delegation to Pueblo
goes entirely uninstructed, and is left
to join its forces with those that are
best calculated to promote the inter
est and welfare of the party in the
state and nation.
The most notable and interesting Of
the resolutions, however, was the one
relating to tie services of Senator
Edward II. Taylor. In this the DEM
ocrats of Garfield county commend
the course pursued by the senator for
the past eight years, and urge upon
the senatorial convention the re-nom-
inatian of Mr.. Taylor. =
Such an Endorsement ought not
only to make Senator Taylor feel
proud of his people, but. in view of the
fact that there are no other candidates
mentioned in his party for this posi-
ton, we think it ought to settle the
matter and secure to him the nomi-
nation
In any event, it was an action as
rare as 1t was beautiful and, let us
hope, the action of Garfield county
has established a precedent which
the other counties of this state will
not hesitate to follow whenever merit
demands that it should be followed.

Triumphs of Modern Surgery.

Wonderful things are done for the
human body by surgery. Organs are
taken out and scraped and polished
and put back, or they may be removed
entirely; bones are spliced; pipes
take the place of diseased sections Of
veins; antiseptic dressings are APP
piled to wounds, bruises, burns and
like injuries before Inflammation sets
in, which causes them to heal with
out matruation and in one-third the
time required by the old treatment.
Chambsrlain's Pain Balm acts on
this same principle. 1t is an antisep-
tic and when applied to such injuries,
causes them to heal quickly. 1t also
allays the pain and soreness. Keep
q bottle of Pain Balm in your home
and it will save you time and money,
not to mention the inconvience and
suffering which such injuries entail.
For sale by all druggists.

When one considers the recent
Denver election the wonder is, not
that John w. Springer was defeated,
but that considering his terrible
handicap he received such splendid
vote. Springer's campaign was
managed by bulldozing politicians
whose support is always disastrous.
And as though this were not enough
the entire press of Denver engaged in
a campaign of billingsgate and vitup-
Grafton leveled at Bob Speer and his
associates and then as If to add insult
to injury Tom Patterson broke into
the Republican ranks and that did
settle it. Either of these three evils
would of itself have been sufficient to
insure Springer's defeat but how
could he escape when loaded down
with all of them. The Post remarked
some time ago that to lead a horse to
water was easy but to force him to
drink was quite another proposition.
Is there any surprise that the Demo-
Gratis observing the disgraceful tactics
rallied the closer to their ticket?
That the business men who Mt first
favored Springer forsook his cause
and that the Republicans disguised
with the coarse work of their bosses
either became indifferent and refused
to vote or else voted for the opposi
Post.

Susan Clegg and Her Friend Mrs.
Latbrop. By Anne Warner. Bos-
ton: Little, Brown & Co. Cloth;
price, 81.
BY all the signs that point to fame,
Susan Clegg ought to become a ma
tional celebrity this winter. She
should, indeed, make her debut on the
stage, and be a subject of general con-
versation. She is "a character" In
deed, it may be said that she is
type, since we all know her, more or
less intimately as she is to be found
in nearly every community. While
not in the least like Mrs. Wigs of
the Cabbage Patch" Susan somehow
suggests that lady. Nor is she less
original and interesting. The charac-
ter drawing of Susan and her friend
is delightful; the quaint wit and hu-
NOR of the narrative is health giving,
and the drollery of the conclusions is
irresistible.
Susan Clegg and Her Friend Mrs.

Defending the Island. BY James Otis
Boston Dana Estes & Co. Cloth;
illustrated. Price, rs cents.
This story tells how the children of
two families living on Mount Desert
in the year 1853 defended the island,
during the absence of their fathers
on a fishing trip, against the combined
attacks of French and Indians. The
oldest child was only fifteen, but boys
and girls in those days had been
taught almost from infancy the use of
firearms, and the assailants were
driven back by ell-directed shots
from behind the stockade, until the
fearless band of besieged women and
children obtained timely and uneX-
pected aid. Mr.. Otis's little book is
a tale of pluck and daring, filled with
unusual and striking situations, and
yet always within the bounds of his
torical truth. All healthy-minded
boys and girls will like this spirited
story, which is concerned with one of
the most exciting events in New Eng
land history

Balance; the Fundamental of verit

vo; cloth. Price, $1.25 net; postage,
cents.
This is an exhaustive philosophical,
scientific, religious study of balance
as the basis of truth. 1t purports to
offer a key to the fundamental scien-
tfhc interpretations of the system Of
nature, a definition of natural religion,
and consequent agreement between
science and religion. Rev. r. Heber
Newton says of the work, that it is
"a multum in parvo, bulking small
but weighing heavily; composed of
short sentences, clean cut, crisp and
clear as the thought behind the trans
lucent words"
