BENJAMIN II. EATON.

BENJAMIN II. Eaton is dead. With
his demise is lost one of the strongest
personalities in northern Colorado. If
not in the entire state. By his eX-
ample has been shown what success
can be won on the farm. 1t is safe
to say that no other man in Weld
county has become better known in
the United States than Governor
Eaton. He was on the ground
before Greeley was founded, and had
already in his minds eye laid out
his plans for the conquest of the
wilderness. He never faltered from
these plans, and mile after mile of
the prairie was pushed back before
his irrigation enterprises that alone
stand comparison with the best sys-
TENS built by the combined efforts
of scorces of men since.
While everyone will admire his
pluck and energy in his conquest of
new country, there is vein of
sadness running through it all, that
he should not be given any time to
review his labors in peace and quiet
after his days work was done. 1t
may be said that his work was fin
ished three years ago, when all of
his great interests were placed upon
a sound financial basis, and he could
at last take a we'll earned rest. At
| almost the same time his health
gave way, and from that time until
the end came it was struggle be-
tween his sturdy nature and death.
Saturday the destroyer won, and
today, and for many day, Greeley,
Weld county and the entire state
will mourn the loss of one of its best
citizens.
The Greeley tribune., 1904-11-02
Send a Farmer.

Amos Ackroyd is practical
farmer and irrigationist. If he is
sent to the legislature he will work
for such measures as will be of bene-
fit to the farmers in the way of new
irrigation laws. Mr.. Ackroyd also
has an abundance of good sound sense
to devote to other legislative mat
tiers. which will be devoted to his
work 1t is conceded by the best
observers that good common sense is
more essential in lawmaker than a
technical legal training. There are
always plenty of lawyers in legisla-
tive body to look after the fine legal
points of bill. There is IA judic
iary committee for that purpose.
What is wanted in the legislature is
more men who can propose common
sense measures. What is wanted in
Weld county is more men in the
legislature who can propose common
sense measures for the benefit of
the farmers. If it were not for the
farmers Weld county would not be
worth two cents an acre. Therefore,
let the farmers be represented in the
legislature by sending Amos Ackroyd
there next Tuesday,

than lot of grating politicians
who have no nobler thought than
the power the control of the school
system may give them.
The Rocky Mountain Educator,
which is the leading school paper OF
the state, edited and published en-
tirely by republicans, has the fol-
lowing to say about Mrs. Grenfell:
Mrs. Grenfell is now completing
her sixth year in the office. SHE
HAS PROVEN HERSELF TO
BE THE MOST SATISFACTORY
PERSON WHO HAS EVER OC-
CUPIED THAT POSITION. THE
EDUCATORS OF THE STATE
ARE UNANIMOUS IN THIS
OPINION. SHE HAS NO CRIT
ICS AMONG HER PROFESSION
AL CO. WORKERS, AND NO
OPPOSITION EXCEPT BY PAR
TISAN POLITICIANS.
I'VE believe the educational
interests of the state much more
important than the schemes and
wishes of the members of any polit-
ical party. We have no hostile feel
ing toward the republican candidate,
and should she be elected we shall
do all in our power to aid and
strengthen her administrations. At
the same time. we are of the opinion
that THE MAGNIFICENT SER
VICES RENDERED BY MRS.
GRENFELL AND THE HIGH
CHARACTER WEIGH SHE HAS
GIVEN TO HER OFFICE AND
TO THE EDUCATIONAL WORK
OF THIS STATE SHOULD NOT
BE INTERCEPTED by a change
in administration for political rea
SONS only
This tribute is especially sig
niticent as the editor of that publi-
cation. Fred Dick, at one time held
the office of state superintendent.
What can be said about Mrs.
Grenfell can also be said of j. f.
Shook for his work in the Weld
county schools, and he also should
be retained in office.
The Greeley tribune., 1904-11-02
Sheriff for All.

The statement made by \. j.
Elliott when he was nominated for
the Office of sheriff by the democratic
county convention was in striking
contrast to the speech of acceptance
made by practically every republican
candidate at their convention. In
variably their announcement was
that they would support the entire
republican ticket. Mr.. Elliott stated
that the nomination was not of his
seeking this time, but if elected he
would be sheriff for the entire county
regardless of party.
The two terms that Mr.. Elliott
has served he has proved that he
can be sheriff for everyone. No man
has been able to bring forward
charges in this campaign that Mr..
Elliott ever showed any partiality to
political friends when in discharge
of his official duty. He will again
be sheriff for every man, woman and
child in Weld county.
The Greeley tribune., 1904-11-02

admitted. When Davis had worked
Won Gohren for $500 the thing
seemed so easy that he sent for
IL. f. Churchill and the two
wormed another $500 out of the un-
fortunate man who fell into the
clutches.
The record that W. II. Adams has
made in the office of county clerk
is a matter of knowledge to any and
every ore. He was turned down be-
cause he was too honest to suit
Churchill, whom he had befriended
many time before the latter's pros
porous days. Now it rests with the
people next Tuesday to choose be-
tween Charles Davis and w. Il.
Adams.
The Greeley tribune., 1904-11-02
ON FALSE PRETENSES.

Under the heading, DIRTY
WORK. the Greeley Sun in its
last issue goes hysterical over an
affidavit by J. ID. Mattison of Ault,
in which he says he did not swear or
affirm to the citizens ticket in any
way, shape, form or manner, and
that he utterly repudiated his al
legged signature to the said petition.
The affidavit may be said to be
false in every particular and Mr..
Mattison has evidently been led into
believing that he signed something
terrible, by RI. E. Churchill.
The fact of the matter is that Mr..
Mattison did sign the petition. did
in some way, shape, form and man
ner, affirm and swear to the petition,
and he knew what he was doing.
But afterward someone got hold
of him and tried to frighten him
into belief that he had sworn to
The Greeley tribune., 1904-11-02
THE REAL QUESTION.

1T is not a question, as a Gree
ley business man we'll puts it. of
whether II. f. Churchill would be
successful candidate for the peniten-
tiary, or whether he would be a
successful candidate for disbarment
proceedings, but whether he have
that high sense Of honor and integ-
rity that should entitle him to be
successful candidate for the senate.
Mr.. Churchill is charged directly
with forging a power of attorney and
collecting money thereon; with CASH
ing check intended for another
party, and with obtaining money
on the plea that it was to be used to
bribe the state treasurer and state
auditor. The fact that in each of
these cases the money was paid back
when prosecution was threatened
does not alter the gravity of the
cases. 1t may be noted that Mr..
Churchill has. only been charged
with acts of a specific character,
where the proof is forthcoming. of
the dozens of indefinite accusations
of a more or less grave character
that are floating around, nothing has
been said. They might be and are
used to a certain extent against
every man who runs for office. No
weight should be given to any charge
against Mr.. Churchill or any other
candidate on any ticket unless the
person making it has the courage of
his convictions, and will stand by it.
I'm this case the truth is bad
enough and strong enough. No
denial or explanation of the three
direct charges against Mr.. Church
| ill's honesty has been made. 1t is
not required of any man charged
with wrongdoing that he shall prove
himself not guilty. The burden of
proof lies with his accusers. But
when appearances are very much
against him, his friends would have
more confidence in his innocence if
he could or would make some plauS-
ible explanation of the suspicious
circumstances. This Mr.. Churchill
has not done. If he will do so, The
Tribune will give him the benefit of
| the doubt.
The Greeley tribune., 1904-11-02
PEOPLE TO DECIDE.

So far, the republicans have not
brought forward one single, solitary,
good reason why Charles Davis OF
Erie should be elected to the office
of county clerk, except that he wants
the office and III. Il. Churchill wants
him to have the Office, because III. r.
Churchill can fry fat out of Davis
when he needs it. This was Illus
trated in the Won Gohren matter
that has never been satisfactorily
explained, and has practically been

support and vote for the entire dem
ocratic ticket. There may be some
man whose signature appears upon
the petition who will vote the
straight democratic ticket, but it
is doubtful, as every man Is an
avowed republican who was disgusted
with Churchill machine politics and
for this reason was willing to sign a
petition for an independent citizens
ticket.
Where Mr.. Mattison did swear
and affirm to the petition was when
he placed his signature upon the
document. as the petition itself is
an atfidavit, and upon the page that
Mr.. Mattison placed his signature
was the notarial seal of William j.
Henderson of Ault.
Mr.. Mattison states himself that
he placed his name upon the petition
in order to help out William j. Hen
derson of Ault for justice of the
peace. Mr.. Henderson was also
turned down there by the Churchill
Townsend crowd, and there were
scores of people there who wanted
him as justice of the peace, to put
their name to this petition.
Further. the name of Mr.. Mat
tison would not have been needed
upon the petition, as neither would
twenty-six other good republicans
whose names appear, as one hundred
names is 'all that is required, and
the petition has l27.
This case is given mention, not
because of any narm that the sun
may do to the cause, but because
others whose names appear upon the
petition may be frightened by mis-
as was Mr.. MattiSon,
to believe that they have pledged
themselves into supporting anyone
in particular. Mr.. Mattison or any
one else can vote just as he pleaSeS
of that signature. There
is absolutely no pledge connected
with it.
The Greeley tribune., 1904-11-02
Clayton for Senator.

To vote for w. l.. Clayton for
state senator next Tuesday will be
to help send to that body a champion
of an honest primary election that
will take the political power out of
the hands of a few designing poll
ticians and give it back to the
people, who originally had it, and
where it belongs.
The article published in The
Tribune one week ago is the most
election law should be. Senator
CLAYTON has repeatedly stated since
then that he is heartily in favor of
such law as recommended by Judge
Lindsey and if elected will do all in
his power to have such law passed.
This alone is good reason why Mr..
Clayton should be sent to the senate
again. But he has already served
there during two regular sessions and
two extra sessions, and the people
know that they can depend upon him
to work for the best interests of
Weld county. His irrigation meas
ure, his sixty per cent exemption
law, his work on the eight-hour law,
and many other important measures
are matters of record and have been
referred to heretofore.
Mr.. Clayton is an old time resi-
dent of Greeley, and there has never
been a whisper about his Integrity,
as a business or public man. He
will carry out his work in the senate
with the same honesty and care that
has characterized all his acts in the
past,
The Greeley tribune., 1904-11-02
To Democrats and Citizens.
DEMOCRATS, VOTE YOUI

TICKET STRAIGHT. Do not
scratch This is not the fall to
vote against any candidate on your
ticket to gratify a personal spite,
or because some one on the oppo-
sition ticket may be friend.
Friendship is virtue, but this fall
one of the chief purposes at the polls
is to smash and bury the Churchill
machine, and the only way to do
that is for every democrat to vote
his ticket straight, and for every
independent republican to put an X
mark in the space to the right of
every candidate on the citizens
county ticket.
NOW is THE TINE TO SMASH
THE MACHINE AND HURL IT'S
DEFEN DERS FROM POWER.

ELECT THEM BOTH.

There is one candidate upon the
democratic state ticket who should
receive the vote of every fair minded
person in the state. regardless of
party. That is Mrs. Helen Grenfell,
candidate for reelection as superin-
tendent of public instruction.. She
has the hearty support of the entire
teaching force of the state. This is
one of the best recommendations she
could have. 1t must be evident to
anyone that the people who give
their entire life to education and the
study of educational methods should
be better judges of what is wanted
