HAvENs FOR SECRETARY.

The Sentinel is glad to know that
Horace W. Havens is again In the
field for secretary of state He has
been unhorsed twice. but through no
fault of his own. The first time. in
1902, he was beaten because of the
Coates Socialist detection and the
last time he was elected but was
counted out. ns was Governor Adams
We are of the opinion that any or
all of the candidates on the last
state Democratic ticket. because OF
the peculiar circumstances then exist
ing. should be given a place on the
ticket to be placed in the field next
September, should they so desire IL.
We feel that all were robbed of the
fruits of victory, and not only that,
but their denomination would perhaps
go further toward settling the pre-
convention squabbles than ANYTHING
that could be suggested.
Mr.. Havens has signified his inten-
tion to run the third time for the
place, Ii shows the nature of the
man. 81 have set my mind on that
place" says he. and nothing will
turn me. II is my ambition and |
feel that the third time will prove
the charm, If | am given the chance
to try conclusions.
MIR. Havens ambition is very
worthy of him. He has set his mark
and proposes to climb to it. Twice
he has filled the deputyship and
knows the duties rs no other man
does. A model of honesty and CON
he presents the tyne
of the ideal official. He should re-
eeive the united support of every
deiegation to the Democratic con.
vention.

ALLOW US TO CONGRATULATE

And now. may we not congratulate
ourselves, each other and even fell

other step towards making Grand

the taxpayers given evidence of their
progressive spirit and their conf
dence in the future of the valley. We
back our claims with our dollars; we
pray and we proceed to answer our

power. We plan, we plant, we CON
struct. We SOW. we cultivate and
we irrigate, and so sure as seedtime

summer and winter, and night and
day continue with their accustomed
promptness. we shall reap abundant

to the future as well as the present,
living for others as well as himself,
must need to brush away timidity
cast out doubt. and grasp the horns
of the altar with firmness. Even so
has Grand Junction done in this mat.

without the shadow of doubt as
to what the result will be. AS yet
we are pioneers. the possibilities of
our country are just becoming known

most pursuasive invitation 1t is pos

nature smilingly holds out.
