L. W. BOmgardner VIII be mayor
of La Junta for the next two years.
Mr. Bomgardner has served in this
capacity on three previous occasions
and he is not an unknown quantity.
He has been endorsed and chosen by
the people to serve for another two
years. and although he was not the
TRIBUNE's candidate for mayor he
will have our loyal support and en-
couragement in promoting the best
interests Of La Junta.
The TRIBUNE promised to support
Mr.. Pearce for mayor and Mr.. Nc
Daniel for city attorney long before
any candidates for those Offices were
talked Of or even suggested. for the
reason that they were both strenu-
ously in favor Of municipal owner
ship Of all public utilities a public
policy that the TRIBUNE believes in
just as much at the present time as
at any previous period. and which il
will continue to advocate. The
TRIBUNE has no regrets. and under
the same conditions would support
the same candidates. Considering
the principles Of municipal govern
ment which Mr.. Pearce stood for We
still believe that he would have
been the best mayor for La Junta,
but as those principles were not ap-
proved of we acquiesce in the will
of the majority. something that
every good citizen should do, and
hope for the best. The TRIBUNE
did not exact a single promise from
a single candidate on either side. At
no time did pecuniary considera-
tions cut any figure. if they had we
could have been several hundred
dollars to the good. but We are not
built that way and hope to be able
to continue doing business at the old
stand on legitimate business princi-
piles. We are after all the business
we can get and hope to get it.
Mayor-elect Bomgardner has an
opportunity to make a name for
himself as mayor that has never
been offered to any previous mayor.
La Junta has reached the dividing
line between a wild and woolly vii
lage and a progressive young city.
and it is up to Mr.. Bomgardner
to decide whether il is to go
ahead or stagnate in a doldrum sea
of inactivity. As the TRIBUNE has
hitherto remarked. The mayor is
the executive head of the city. He
can enforce the ordinances of the
city against the opposition of every
other officer. II he is lax and in
different. the laws are not enforced:
Il he is firm. they are" II he wants
to he can close the saloons at mid
night every night in the year: he
can make il extremely interesting
for the drug stores who persist in

desuetude ~ they are at present,

years ago. when he met with serious
financial reverses through the sudden
break of the hop market. Through this
he lost his property, and later his
health failed, so that he could not re-

Certainly England is Infinitely worse

We quote the reverend gentleman:
"London is the reslthiest city in the

Englishman bits upon little fact that

Don't forget the big American fact,
which is that in this country per cent

the population owns nothing
But let the clergyman proceed with
his interesting facts and statements:
"The condition under which mil

surely, on our boasted civilization. Not
