A runaway starting in front of this Of
flee on Tuesday might have been rather
a serious matter. A team of bronchoes
being hitched to hayrack belonging to
Barney Johnson were hauling ties from
the gas plant. They started and the old
man on the rack did not attempt to get
the lines tied to the rack. They passed
near Mayor Chisholm who was standing
in the road and as they were not moving
very fast he grasped the rein and tried to
stop them. The brutes seemed to want
to run and the one nearest Mr.. c. Struck
his leg and threw him down. BY some
vigorous and rapid rolling Mr.. c. just
managed to escape the wheels. Marshal
Akers who was in front managed to shy
them to the ditch at the drug store where
the rack colided with telephone pole
and stopped the team long enough to
catch them. The old man was sent for.

cHAmeERLAlN's COUGH REMEDY

No one who is acquainted with its
good qualities can be surprised at the
great popularity of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy. It not only cures colds
and grip effectually and permanently
but prevents these diseases from re-
sulting in pneumonia. 1t is also GER
tain cure for Group. Whooping cough
is not dangerous when this remedy is
given. 1t containes no opium or other
harmful substance and may be given
as confidently to baby as to an adult.
1t is also pleasant to take. When all
of these facts are taken into consid-
GRAFTON il is not surprising that peo-
pie in foreign lands. as well as at
home, esteem this remedy very highly
and very few are willing to take any
other after having once used it. For
sale by all druggists.

CAUSE OF LockJAw.

Lockjaw or tetaDus, is caused by a
bacillus or germ which exists plenti-
fully in street dirt. 1t is inactive SO
long as exposed TO the air. but wheI.
carried beneath the skin. as In the
wounds caused by percussion caps or
by rusty neils, and when the air is
excluded the germ is reused to activ-
ity and pi oduces the most virulent
poison known. These germs may be
destroyed and all danger of lockjaw
avoided by applying Chamberlains's
Pain Balm freely as soon as the in
jury is received. Pain Balm is an an
tiseptic and causes cuts. bruises and
like injuries to heal without matura-

THE DEMOCRATIC sueARoo.

Just little bit more about this
economy business. Senator Patterson
the real Democratic Leaders, max
ing a great outcry of "wasteful ex-
travagance." Criminal carelessness."
and all of the other watchwords that
so appeal to the Federation party.
With much gusto. he points out in
column after column of the News and
Times. that Governor Peabody's ad
ministration has cost the state $4,242,-
lS0.73, and that Governor Adams-dur-
only $3.4S6,6O 20.
But-Mr. Patterson forgets. Also,
forgetfulness is very useful in this
instance.
He doesn't remember-or II he does
remember he doesn't tell-that this
expenditure of Governor Adams was
made In the years 1897 and ls9S-sev-
eral years ago.
And also, he doesn't tell of the
marked growth and the wonderful in
crease of the business and the wealth
of Colorado, and of the necessity for
spending just so much more money in
conducting a state administration.
This Is one of the things he has for
gotten. But is isn't the most important
one
The one great. big. overwhelming
important point in such an argument
as this. is the cost of the state admin
istration of the governor just before
the present one, and of the governor
before him. and then the governor be
fore him-and then comparison of
the increased cost for each admins
tration.
Here Is what 1t is
Governor Thomas in 1899 and 1900
expended $3,10S .273.s9.
Governor Orman in 1901 and 1902
expended s4.672.s50.43,
And Governor Peabody in 1908 and
1904 expended $4.242, ,1S073. And this
includes military debt of $3.50 4O6,91
In other words. Governor Peabody
has managed the states affairs at a
net cost of 81. 1870, ,07661 less than that
of his "economizing'' Democratic pre-
decessor.
So much for the "wasteful extrava-
gance" of Governor Peabody's admin
istration-as It is told by the Hon
Mr.. Patterson.
Then there is another thing Great
talk is being made of the increased
burden of taxation that must come
from the cost Of the military cam
paign.
And that is where the Hon. Mr. Pat
terson-lawyer and publicist as he is
--forgets another thing.
He knows, as every one else knows
that by constitutional amendment
a tax of four mills is allowed for the
expenses of the state. Also. he knows
that ever since that constitutional
amendment was adopted, the state
Legislature has demanded Just that
much money.
In other words. every property
holder In this state has for years
been assessed four mills for the ben
eft OF the state. and no matter what
obligations may be incurred the levy
