A BUNGLING BUNCH.

This entire week has been spent
by Braiden and his bunch of inde-
pendents in circulating two pet-
tions, one for the purpose of St.
curing 100 signers in order that
little Moses could have his name
placed on the independent ticket
as it's nominee for district attorney
and the other for nominating j. c.
Cantu for the legislature, 100 sign
ers to that also. being necessary for
filing.
Twice did they circulate their
petitions and twice were they so
tiagrantly incorrect that new ones
had to be started in Alamosa last
night, and to-day they are working
their heads off in La Jara in an
endeavor to secure the necessary
100 signers. Old Uncle Tom Kin
ton has had Il terrible siege of it
and all the blame for the many
blunders has been laid at his door
by Braiden, Pat Lopez and Tom
Ormond. However, Moses has
come to the rescue, having arrived
on this mornings train, and Uncle
Tom is relieved of the great re-
sponsibility.

speaking from the same platform
and in the same building from and
in which his opponent was nomi-
mated it is generally believed that
the Republican candidate will enter
quite fully into discussion of the
principles of the party of his oppo-
nent which principles were ar
ranged by the late Democratic
treasurer, G. N. Haskell of STANDARD
Oil fame, to the Democratic con-
vention on July 10, last. 1t is al
ways customary for presidential
candidates to acquit themselves
more completely in those addresses
delivered in the towns where their
opponents were nominated, and Mr..
Taft will hardly fail to maintain
the usual procedure in this matter.
Standing perhaps in the same place,
at least on the same stand, where
stood Haskell and facing for the
most part the same, if not, then a
similar, western audience, it would
be but fitting that he take up at
length those peculiar issues where
in he and Mr.. Bryan are divided
and upon which the two are asking
the suffrages of the American peo-
Pile by reason of this division of
facts.

can day. 1t will be an outside

JUDGE TAFT SPEAKS
IN DENVER TONIGHT
Our Next President will Formally Open the Campaign

the State in the Same Building in which His
Opponent Nominated.

Denver, Oct. To-day is Re-
publican day in this city. William
H. Taft, the party's candidate for
president, will open the campaign
with a monster mass meeting in the
Auditorium. For the first time
since the Democratic convention,
the hall will be thrown open to its
fullest capacity and without doubt
10000 people will be accommodated
with places within hearing of Mr.
Taft's voice.
If reports be true, and there is
no doubt that they are, this will
not be one-half enough space for
those who desire to hear him. Tele-
grams from every county in the
state indicate that large delegations
are coming to join in the opening
exercises of Colorado's campaign
and to indicate to President Roose-
velt's successor that the Centennial
state will deliver unto him her five
votes in the electoral college. The
city of Pueblo has asked for 800
reservations, Colorado Springs for

HEARST'S MEETING
A DECIDED FROST

Denver, Oct. William Ran
dolph Hearst, multi-millionaire by
inheritance, yellow journalist by
profession, cold, cruel sinister and
thin Tipped, fell foul of Bryan and
Haskell, of Roosevelt and Foraker
again last night at the auditorium.
The main point of his latest one
night-stand sensational campaign
series lay in Hearst's driving home
the fact that Haskell, the chairman
of the Democratic committee on
resolutions; Haskell, the man re-
sponsible for the platform over
which Samuel Gompers, the alleged
labor dictator is braying SO full
somely, was the head and front of
the citizens alliance of Muskogee.
Okla, that was formed to drive
union labor from that city: that
Haskell, the former treasurer of the
Democratic campaign fund was
the avowed and bitter enemy OF
union labor until such time as he
found it essential to turn around
and cry aloud in the market place
for all that Gompers would seek.
Mr.. Hearst in his shrill, womanish
voice declared Haskell to be a de
faulter and painted him as the
master hypocrite of the party of
much hypocrisy and many hypo-
critics. Atfidavits were read to
prove that Haskell was not only
member of the alliance, but "the
alliance" and this despite his dis
chalmers and the guarded denials
of Bryan his patron saint
OF poor Foraker, dead politically
as the proverbial doornail, Mr.
Hearst read two letters from John
ID. Archbold of the Standard Oir
company, enclosing him 5000 and
$4,000 respectively.
The multitude loves scandal. A
great many people sought entrance
to the auditorium, one-half OF
which only was available. 1t held
5000 Before Z o'clock at night
the space had been levied on by the
"tirst-nighters" More than 5000
had to be disappointed from listen
ing to the possessor of the Archbold
letter -file-the nemesis of Haskell
and of Hearst.
When Mr.. Hearst read his '.awr-
full sensations regarding the
Standard Oil magnate's relations
with Foraker and the Haskell aft
davits the crowd departed. 1t had
witnessed the notorious sensation
monger deliver his latest sensation
and that was enough. Thomas l..
Hisgen, the Hearst nominee, was
left to tell the story of his life and
the death grapple he had entered
into with Rockefeller to lonesome
few.

Colonel Bryan laments the "di.crim

Colonel Bryan laments the "discrimi-
nation that has been going Oh against
the farmer" in electing SO few tillers
Of the soil to Congress and the Senate.
What troubles him chiefly, however, Is
the discrimination which the whole
American nation exercises against a
certain farmer Of Lincoln, Neb., In de-
clining to elect him to the White
House.-Nsw York Tribune.
The La Jara chronicle., 1908-10-02

Each farmer, each season, will
receive from the 1907 seed grown
at the Station, seed wheat for IA
given area. He will seed the same
sized area with wheat grown the
preceding year upon his farm.
Both plots will be divided into at
least three divisions. No. | will
receive as little irrigation as pos
sible to keep the crop in growing
condition. No. 2 will receive the
customary amount of irrigation.
No. 3 will be given an excessive
amount of irrigation.
This work will be maintained in
as uniform manner in the various
spring wheat regions of the state as
possible that we may have compar-
able data with which to measure re-
suits obtained from the Valley
farmers chosen to assist in this ex-
pertinent. The harvested wheat,
when properly bin cured and ripen-
ed. will be thoroughly analysed
each year and the milled wheat
given the gluten, sponge and bak-
ing test.
A sample taken from Clarence
Matthias wheat plots north of
Monte Vista, July 18th, shows one
stool with fifteen well developed
spikes. The spikelets have three
and sometimes four kernels each,
and the number of spikelets average
more than twenty per spike or head.
This gives sixty to eighty wheat
kernels per spike or head. One
plant was found to have fifteen
heads in the stool averaging twenty
spikelets or "houses" per head, with
an average of more than three ker-
nels per spikelet or "honse." (Often
four kernels were found) This
makes 800 kernels grown from one
sprouted seed
Mr.. Matthias is justly proud of
this acre of experimental wheat,
which he seeded on well pulverized
and clean potato ground.
Wheat and potatoes are the
money crops of the San Luis Val
lev, where climatic conditions seem
SO favorable to produce high yields
in both crops. AS we are seeking
to get quality while we increase the
yield of field peas-the great feed
crop of the Valley-so may we learn
how to treasure the quantity and
quality OF gluten in the wheat ker-
mel. By careful farming and sys-
tematic seed selection the writer
believes this important problem,
which will mean so much to farmer,
miller and baker, can and will be
solved.
The writer knows of one Northern
Colorado wheat farmer who, for
twenty nine years has grown his
own wheat seed on the home farm
and today has the finest wheat field
the writer has seen this season.
Wheat is said to run out" because
the farmer runs down"
LeU us grow more wheat, to run
more mills, to make more -four, to
bake more bread, to feed more peo-
pie, who are becoming more and
more dependent upon the San Luis
Valley Bread Basket.
