great amounts Of capital to monopoize end con-
troll particular industries. 1t is my sincere be-
lief that such control monopoly can be
maintained permanently unless it is butrressed
by positive legislation giving an undue advan-
tage over the public and competitors.
And so far as Taft's record while acting in
the management of dependent colonies Is
concerned, we know enough to appreciate that
in his dictionary the meaning Of the word con-
troll means just what it is supposed to mean,
and no more or TO less Now, before I stop.
permit me TO say that stranger things have
happened than that the Solid South should be
broken into in this coming November"

Aspiring candidates are much in
evidence these days. the very latest
being Precinct No. Ten OF the city
OF La Junta. which aspires to a high
seat on the water wagon. Last We'd
nesday two hundred and thirty-seven
qualified electors of Precinct No. Ten
filed a petition in the office of the
county clerk requesting that official
TO cause to be submitted at the
next general election the proposition,
shall this Election Precinct No. Ten
become Anti-Saioon Territory" This
petition was filed by representatives
OF those who believe that none other
than those OF water wagon tendencies
shall prevail In this community. Not
to be outdone In their eagerness for
test OF strength. Representatives OF
the various and sundry thirst par
lors of this city caused petition to
be circulated to which the names of
2i2 qualified electors Of the same
precinct were attached. Many resi-
dents of the precinct signed bota pc
titions and both were filed with the
county clerk on the same day. Just
what the particular scheme or object
In in filing two petitions hnsf NOT
as yet developed. Precinct No. Ten
includes all OF the territory between
Colorado and Maple avenues. north
of Fifth street. and all Of the sa'
looms are located In this precinct II
the precinct goes dry all OF the
saloons will be banished from La
Junta within a period of thirty days
after election. and the question can
not be submitted again for a per
iod Of two years. From q financial
standpoint IL will be an advantage
to our municipal government to have
the question submitted this fall rath-
er than next spring. The tax levy
for municipal purposes is made dur
ing the month Of November, and II
the precinct goes dry the city dads
will have an opportunity to fix the
rate high enough TO make up for the
loss of $4,000 revenue now derived
from the saloons annually. If the
tax rate was fixed this fall and the
question was submitted next spring
much confusion would result. and the
city dads would have to do some
frenzied financiering to make both
ends meet. II seems to be the
general opinion that the wet people
sill have much the best Of 1t In
having the question submitted this h
in one precinct. although. owing to
the temperance wave that is sub.
merging this country from center to
cireamferenceyou can never tell whai
will happen until 1t happens.

Of La Junta last Sunday night. every
car in the train being deraiied. Eigh-

tention OF local physicians who were
summoned To the scene Of the wreck

seriously injured. and all were able TO
continue their journey on the same

Make This According
to the Directions

What will appear very interesting
to many people heee is the article
taken from New York daily paper,
giving simple prescription, which is
said to be positive remedy for back
ache or kidney or bladder derange-
ment, IL taken before the stage Of
Bright's disease:
Fluid Extract Dandeliou, one-half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounces
Compound Syrup Sarsaparllla, three
ounces. Shake well in bottle and
take In teaspoonful doses after each
meal and again at bedtime.
A well-known druggist here at
home, when asked regarding this pre-
scription. stated that the ingredients
are all harmless, and can be obtained
at small cost from any good pre-
scription pharmacy, or the mixture
would be put up II asked to do so
He further stated that while this pre-
scription Is often prescribed ia rheu-
matte Affections with splendid results,
he could see no reason why 1t would
not be splendid remedy for kidney
and urinary troubles and backache, as
II has peculiar action upon the kid
nev structure, cleansing these most
important organs and helping them
to sift and filter from the blood the
foul acids and waste matter which
cause sickness and suffering. Those
of our readers who suffer can make no
mistake In giving 1t trial.
