This Paper Goes Over"

Under the above head Dave Day
bids farewell to the editorial chair
of the Durango Daily Democrat.
His valedictory follows:
The Democrat management has
said that it would turn over this
paper to Mr. Thomas H. Tulley
on Oct. lst,
Mr.. Tulley married our only
daughter, II he can run it now,
he can after we are among the
also in; it not, why impoverish
the estate?
He must get live man to help;
the business is his as business
manager, and he cares for it in a
most admirable way. He cannot
do more, or can he intrust it to
other hands. The profits of the
concern justify live man, under
his management.
AS to our future, it will be
largely a loaf, life of unrestraint
and with no duty beyond such as
we elect to have.
We do not have to work, at
least not Is hours per day, and
beyond shady tree, warm stove
and grandchildren, we have no
want, no desire, no expense other
than tobacco and a bottle in the
sideboard.
We have no desire for other
than the plainest clothes. the

spectability by getting behind
County Judge Ben b. Lindsey of
Denver as candidate for governor.
The scheme would not work, how
ever, and the ring delegates were
unseated, the convention nominal
ing a strong ticket headed by
Alva Adams.
On the other hand, the republi-
can party of the state appears to
be firmly in the grasp OF the cor
poration outfit. In the county
convention at Denver the pro.
gressives were turned down and
delegates TO the state convention
selected to represent the franchise
grabbers rather than the people
There seems to be little doubt
that the corporations will con-
tinue TO dominate the party and
that ticket will be nominated
which will be satisfactory to the
Denver bosses.
1t will thus be seen that con-
ditions in Nebraska and Colorado
are exactly reversed. In this
state the republicans were sue
cessful in turning down the old
machine, which has in the past
exercised a more or less potent
influence in conventions and in
nominating a ticket which has
the confidence of the entire electo-
rate of the state, regardless of
party. 1t was as great victory
for Nebraska as that achieved by
Colorado democrats.

Please Call on Friday.

1t was Monday morning, and
the rent collector was pursuing
his fell task.
His bag was getting heavier,
but his heart was light till he
reached the house of Mrs. Sandish.
Master Sandish opened the
door here and, with the air of one
who had learned his message
well, he said
"Mither and fathers oot. Will
you please to call on Friday?"
"H said the collector. He
would have said more, but it did
not seem of much use. Then a
thought struck him.
"And why on Friday, my little
man?"

Teaching a Girl TO Run an Auto.

Secure a good, easy-going ma
chine with an active and up-to-
date sparker, and having placed
the girl firmly by your side, where
you can secure strong hold in
cases of emergency, proceed to
lonely, unfrequented road where
you will be uninterrupted.
If the girl displays any signs of
nervousness, do your best to
soothe her. There are a number
of ways to do this. Take her
hand in yours and pat it gently.
Speak to her in a low, soft tone.
If absolutely necessary place her
head upon your shoulder and
count one hundred. If not ef-
fective, repeat in one minute.
Now she may take the wheel,
advance the sparker and throw in
the clutch. 1t will then be your
turn to grow nervous. While the
girl is clutching the machine you
clutch the girl 1t will then be
time to rest. This should not
take any longer than the rest of
the afternoon.
By the time you have got so
you can kiss the girl without get
ting nervous. she ought to be able
to run the machine.-Tom Mas
son in the October Delineator.

Mr. Tulley will have no opposl-

none that combats a business

October lst the books will be

But will Dave keep his word? /?
The old fireman's horse runs away
when he hears the clang of the

that about one year later Dave
Day will find the incentive to edi-
torial writing too strong and he
will break in to work again. Once
we tried to quit printing, but the
attempt was a failure. We stuck
to the pledge for about three years
and then gave up in disgust, We
do not believe Dave Day can keep

COLORADO'S EXAMPLE.
From the Lincoln, Nebraska, Evening News One the Lead

Colorado democrats are to be
congratulated and their course
commended to the tourbons of
Nebraska who were apparently
lacking in the moral courage
which animated their partisan
fellows of the Centennial state.
Out in Colorado the democrats.
after a bitter contest, followed the
advice of Mr.. Bryan and spewed
out the corporation crowd. They
not only refused TO allow the
representatives of the special pri-
yilege machine to dictate the
action of the convention, but they
elected them bodily from that
gathering. 1t was great victory
Tor the progressive element in
the party which believes that the
people and not the corporations
should manage the politics and
run the municipal, state and
federal governments.
Colorado has for years been
cursed with bipartisan political

have been so bold and corrupt as

end OF the country to the other.
1t has been most firmly entrenched
IN Denver, where it had the back

lucre for lubricating the ma
chinery. In the convention which
has just been held this crowd
