forts of progressive citizens to give
high-claSs wholesome entertainment
to our people. AS can be seen, no
money can be made on a $500 course
but we can pay expenses and have the
best. And the best is none too good
for Julesburg.

A new implement coming into use in
Northern Colorado is cutting quite i,
swath in the spud fields. 1t is calcu-
lated to do away with much hand la
Dor and in fact two men can handle a
crop Of tlfty acres easy enough with
out additional help. The vines are
cut and raked off with hay rake. An
attachment to the digger in the form
of an elevator delivers the potatoes
directly into wagon without dropping
them to the ground. From the wagon
| they are hauled to a stationary plant
| for cleaning by which the dirt and
roots are separated from the potatoes
leaving them perfectly clean. Her,
they are sorted and sacked. This
makes it easy for the farmer to hau
the potatoes direct to the dealer the
same as he would haul beets withou
sacking in the field. In other word.
this process takes the potatoes from
the point where now under the present
systen- they are dropped to the ground
carries them into wagon which i:
driven along at the side of the digge
very similar to the carrier to the
we'll known grader or ditchcr whicl
carries away the dirt as plowed.

Senator Cores Versatility.

Since the retirement of Governor
Haskell, Of Oklahoma, from active
participation in the campaign and the
hurry call for Senator owen, of Okla
homa, to get home and defend himself
against certain legal charges in con-
nectiOn with oil land deals, the burden
Of the democratic defense, SO far as
Oklahoma is concerned, has fallen
upon Senator Gore. The blind sena-
tor, however, is feeling the pressure
and is cancelling many of his speaking
dates. Senator Gore does not like his
new job very much. He has been
persistent opponent of Mr.. Bryan for
twelve years, and he soon wearies OF
his efforts to be as active as the Ne
braska leader in changing views to
meet public sentiment. In speech
delivered at Dallas, Tex, in 1896, Sen
ator Gore said:
''The trouble with the democratic
party is, it is party of statesmen
without stateSmanShip, patriots with
out patriotism, heros without herosm.
Their policy begets farmers without
farming, laborers without labor, free
men without freedom.
''The Fifty second congress had a
democratic majority of l4S, and if it
redeemed a single pledge. observed a
single promise, kept Il single com
mand or discharged IA single obliga
tion made to the people of the United
States | will quit the stump and retire
fiOm the canvas.
Colonel Wattcrson, Bourkc Coch-
ran, "Fingy" ConnerS, Roger Sulli-
van and other eminent democrats
talked in the same strain in 1886 and
| in 1900, and they have had great diff
| iiculty in swallowing their convictions
and turning to the support of Bryan in
| 1905 for the sake of party regularity
and the hope Of prominence in the
reorganization of the party which
must come after Bryan's third defeat.
Senator Gore is having harder time
of it. He Is man of strong cnnvic-
tionS and does not enjoy reversal OF
| himself He will not be blamed if he
loses his voice for the rest of the cam
| paign Omaha Bee.

William James, niiddieaged man,
whose home is near Cedar Hill in

Last night at the Jail he set fire to
his bed and his own clothing, and

himself to death. All night long in
his imagination he engaged the night
riders in fierce battle. He has a
family near Cedar Hill, and some
