don't tell him what to say and do.
Simon simply pulls the string at
any time and the jumping jack
will turn flio flop. We heard a
man remark the other day:
what a shame that the brave
soldier who souaded the bugle
call when Roosevelt stormed San
Juan hill should sell himself to
Senator Simon tor $75." 1t may
be a shame all right but it is one
deal that Simon lost money on.
Last week the Herald said:
"Vincent is still a good republi-
can" Two weeks ago Vincent
was the worst ever-but he is a
good one now. Perry, We will
bet you your best leg that Vim
cent is just the same kind of a
republican he was when you were
boosting Tor him two years ago at
so much a boost; just the same
kind of a republican as when he
stood in the state capitol and de-
fed as dirty gang as ever dis
graced a state-the same gang
you said was "as crooked as a
snakes back" and the same gang
that you are trying to make peo-
pie believe is the very persona
fication of political purity.
Vincent is the same kind OF a
republican he has been for the
past two months. when he de
nounced the dirty political crowd
you are supporting. He is the
same kind of a republican he was
when he stood in the county con-
vention on the fifth day OF this
month and told you and the
balance OF the crowd what repub-
licanism is and what republicans
are. and if you will remember he
did not include any of Vincent's
hired men. . yes. Vincent is
still a good republican.

AS an argument against the

would be just as sensible to re-
quire insurance companies to
stand for the losses Of each other.
Well. we are inclined to think
that is a good idea. Why no,e
With such a law there would be
no more millions of polieyholders'

management. not reckless specu-

We do not think President
Roosevelt has added anything to
his reputation for dignity and
sagacity by his second letter
boosting the candidacy of Taft.
He belittles his Office by becom-
ing a campaign controversialist.
His last effort is an attempt to
defend Taft from charges made
by Hearst and he says the letter
was written without the knowledge
of Mr.. Taft. Bryan has refused
to enter into a controversy with
Hearst contenting himself with a
simple denial. but Mr.. Roosevelt
rushes into print with long ex-
planation OF Taft's conduct. Why
not let Mr.. Taft and his campaign
committee attend to his quarrelsr T
The people do not relish the &C
tivity of Mr.. Roosevelt in this
direction. They are competent
to decide between the candidates
without so much fatherly advice
from the president.

In the east Taft is being sup

In the east Taft is being sup
ported on the ground that his
election will be an end to "Roose-
veltism." In the west his elec-
ton is urged as necessary to
continue Roosevelt's policies.
But no natter on what ground his
election is recommended. the
fact remains that all the protected
trusts and monopolics are bend
ing their energies to bring it
about. and they are generally
pretty certain what they can cx-
pect from candidates election.
1t is safe bet that they take the
eastern view. and it is equally as
safe to bet that they know how
the cards are stacked.

How they raise apples in

under the picture of an apple tree
loaded with fruit which appeared
in Pueblo daily papers write-up
of our neighbor. The picture is
one of a tree in Mr.. Clark's or
chard near Paonia and close in
spection shows the word "Paonia"
on the trunk of the tree. 1t is a
very fine tree. but it stands long
way from Montrose county.

KASPARILLA

THIS sterling household remedy is most
successfully prescribed for world of
troubles" For arrangements of the di-
gestive organs it is natural corrective,
operating directly upon the liver and ali
mentary canal, gently but persistently
stimulating a healthful activity. Its
beneficial influence extends, however, to
every portion of the system, aiding in the
processes of digestion and assimilation of
food, promoting a wholesome, natural
appetite, correcting sour stomach, bad
breath, irregularities of the bowels, con-
stipation and the long list of troubles
directly traceable to those unwholesome
conditions. Kasparilla dispels drowsi-
ness, headache, backache and despond-
ency due to inactivity of the liver,
kidneys and digestive tract. 1t is a
strengthening tonic of the highest value
If it fails to satisfy we authorize all
dealers to refund the purchase price.
