OUTLOOK OVER STATE.

From all sources the political
outlook over the State is re-
garded as favorable to Republi-
can success.
The north and northwest coun
ties are naturally Republican
and those who have been in that
section claim the feeling is eX-
cellent and that the majorities
of elections in past years will be
given in November.
The southern counties are also
Republican, and Ell Paso and Pu-
eblo will roll up their combined
four to five thousand majority.
Denver will presumably be
sufficiently close either way to
cut no important figure in swell
ing or lessening the majorities
of the State as returned from
the several counties and footed
up in one grand total.
While the State has heretofore
gone for Bryan, it is by nc
means certain that it will do SO
this fall, though it is in reason
to believe the result on President
will be close.
The Delta independent., 1908-10-16
PROTECTIVE TARIFF.

That the protective tariff pol
icy-that which has done more
for the nation and all of it's peo-
ple-is distinctly a part of Re
publicanism, should not be for
gotten.
Other tariffs have been tried
after each Free Trade failure,
but without success.
Mr.. Cleveland's scheme of a
Tariff for Revenue Only" filled
the country with the most dis
asterous panic it ever knew and
started an army of idle men to
march from Coast to Capitol, de-
manding work or bread.
But, with the enactment OF
the Dingley Tariff Law came
quickly restored prosperity and
since its going into effect has
been built up a foreign market
for our products in itself capable
of supporting our vast popula-
ton, and always with a balance
of trade in our favor.
The Protective Tariff Measure
is but one of the many great
things the Republican party has
enacted into practical, helpful,
successful law. Constructive
beneficial government has beer
and is still it's motto.

gar growers, who the Democrats
ask you to vote for for Governor
of your State. A man who not
only disregarded your interests,
but who accepted his seat in
Congress on a fraudulent vote,
and who would have contentedly
served his term and drawn his
pay, if Robert Bonynge had not

Political Paragraphs.

Judge King, of Delta is ar honored
candidate on the State ticket for Su.
preme Judge-the only one from the
Western Slope. He is Westesn Slope
man and a good one. Give him the
Western Slope vote.
The Republican candidates for county
offices are before you, voters. You
know them to man and must fee
that they are entirely worthy of your
support.
That C. S. Gibbs will make Repre-
sentative in whom all can place full
confidence, is fact not only acknowl.
edged, but one that is sincerely felt
and is absolutely true. If every mem
ber of the next Colorado Assembly
would prove as good and true to the
interests of the whole people, then the
State would certainly be in safe legis-
lative hands.
John F. Fry is making splendid
campaign for District Attorney, and
his Office being the only Seventh Judi
cial District one to be filled at the No
vember election, his candidacy is rec
commended to the voters of the district
upon which to favorably pass judg.
ment.
The time is at hand when voters
should begin to consider properly the
matter of lining up for party work
party principles and party success
There is much more at stake this fal
than local issues or personal feelings
