Trying to Fool the Farmer.

Patterson, Adams and other Democratic spelhinders
posing champions of the oppressed farmer They
depore the cost to him of the militia under
Peabody. all of which is if what they say is
true.
But they deliberately misstate facts with view of
deceiving the public.
The valuation of the state is about $S40,000000
take their statements the cost OF the militia has
been four-ifths of million dollars.
Let soppose that this is correct.

But 1t Is not at all likely that Gov

He isn't built that way: and from his

THE ADAMS RISK.

So far as Roosevelt and Fairbanks
are concerned. the election is already
won. The only possible danger is
over-confidence. and there is not too
much of that; but in this state we
have local contest which Is probably
attracting more attention than any
other local contest in the United
States. Governor Peabody is every
where regarded as the representative
Of law and order, of every mans right
to work, of the authority OF the whole
people Of the state All against the au-
thority Of a secret organization of dy-
namiters and assassins. What his cleo
tion would mean to the business of the
state cannot be calculated. But 1t
would certainly mean a continuation
of the business confidence which now
prevails; 1t would mean the invest
ment of hundreds of thousands of dol
lars OF eastern money in this state; IL
would be an example to other states
which may be threatened with the
same sort Of domination which the
western federation sought to establish
here tnt

hand. will be signal to the whole

country that the people of Colorado
have declared against the protection of
life and property-that the state is an
unsafe place for investments; that the
people of Colorado cannot be trusted
to uphold an executive who has had
the courage to enforcetthe law. under
the constitution. as interpreted by the
Supreme Court; that the majority of
our voters prefer agitation and unrest
to peace and progress.
Usually 1t Is mere buncombe to as

ocratic city administration chal-
lenge this right to a single class
of citizens. Colored men are for
hidden by them the use of certain
streets in the lower parts of the
city. 1t matters not what their
business may be the policemen on
these beats drive them off the
streets, abusing, cursing and
threatening them with violence.
In many instances these officers
have actually beaten them with
great severity; and for no other
reason than that these citizens
We're peacefully pursuing their way

policemen claim that they receive
their instructions in this matter
from their superiors, and they de-
clare it to be their purpose accord
ingly to prevent any nigger from
walking on those streets" Is it
possible that any colored citizen
would vote to extend this Demo-
cratic system of intolerance, dis
elimination and outrage? Surely
not. Yet we find some of the men
who have been loud in denuncia-
ton of these outrages now in II

For the colored citizen to up

Because of the glorious past of

knowledge that the hope and OPP

men OF letters of his time. He call.
TeDnyson "a very clever man" and
"one of the powerfulest smokers l

partment." Ruskin, though "a bottle
of beautiful soda water" was "very
pleasant company now and then" Ma
caulay he considered really good

ing, whom he strongly advised to try
prose for a time, is rather amusing.

VOTE FOR YOUR RIGHTS.

One would scarcely suppose that
any class of people would volun-
tarily and knowingly vote TO de-
prive themselves of the plainest
and dearest rights of freemen.
To go wherever inclination or in
terest may determine is the first
and most elementary principle of
liberty. 1t is in fact the instinc.
tive test of freedom, and one is
practically a slave who is denied
this God-given right. If he is re-
stricted, hampered or intimidated
in the exercise of this right, COM
mon to all other classes of citizens,
he is to that extent not free, and
to that degree not n full-hedged
citizen. To walk upon any of the
public streets of the city wherein
one lives and pays taxes at once
presents itself to the mind as one
of the simplest and most unques-
toned rights. Yet the present
police authorities under this,Dem

Profit From Iavatories.

The public works committee of Birm-
inghsm, England, in submitting to the
city council a proposition for the con-
struction of an additional underground
lavatory, ETC., announced that where
small charges are made there are
profit possibilities in conveniences of
this kind. The committee said that
the four underground lavatories, ETC..
were paying the city net profit OF
$2.433 year.

Is This True?

When woman asks a number of
questions she is assessed of idle curl

is animated by keen desire to i'm

of knowledge. This is just anothe. of
the little differences between the sexes
which ought to show a woman the ut

PEABODY, PEACE AND PROSPERITY.

der, without order there can be no
peace, without peace there can be
no prosperity. Gov. Peabody
stands for order, peace and pros
perity. These are the elemental
conditions of contentment and
happiness among men. The man
in any community who contributes
most to their establishment or to
their restoration when destroyed
is public benefacor, and is de
serving of the highest recognition
which grateful people can bestow.
Such man is Peabody. Who
can close his eyes to the fact that
with the overthrow aud disappear
ance of the reign of terrorism and
lawlessness in the mining districts
of Colorado great measure of
prosperity has returned to the
state? Mines closed on account
of mob violence and general pre-
vailing sense of insecurity of life
and property have reopened and
are now being operated on "A larger
scale than for long time. The
output of the gold mines of the
Cripple Creek district during the
month of September is greater
than ever. More than 5000 indus
trious and contented miners swell
the payroll of the various mine
owners. Their smiling faces de-
clare their inward satisfaction with
their improved condition and
brighter prospects. And why
should it be otherwise? The min
er can now proceed to and from
his work and continue his labors
without fear of the hidden assassin
with his death dealing dynamite.
No longer do mobs on violence
bent vex his placid serenity or
strike terror into the hearts of his
family left at home. He tiourishes
under fair wages and the ideal
eight hour day. But like impetus
is felt in the entire mining indus
try. And this revival of prosper
ity reaches through every avenue
of business, for whatever affects
the mines the principal source of
our wealth, must necessarily touch
with good or evil effect the entire
gamut of our business. We have
briefly pictured conditions as they
existed when Gov. Peabody found
it necessary to act. We have
pointed out the results of this exc
cutive action. Look at this pic
ture and then on that and say
whether you will choose the for
mer or the latter: whether it will
be Adams the choice of the w. f.
of Nj. or Peabody the true and tried
Republican promoter of peace and
prosperity in the state. 1t is up
to yon colored voters. Shall it be
Roosevelt who stands for national
prosperity and Peabody who equal
ly represents state prosperity, or
shall it be Adams and perpetual
tumult, strife and assassination.
This.you can make knowp.by your
ballot.
