Who has raised our county funds
Hlf It debt? Who secured the re
'auiing Of floating claims at a low
rate OF interest and stopped the
u.iug up Of bogus claims? Who
hos paid the interest steadily aud
begun b pay the principal? The
dem lcratIc county commissioners
lave done all Of this and Jos H.
collins has been leading member
that board, devoting his time
and thought TO the difficult problems
IIr in excess Of that demanded by
ne meagre tour or five days a
month salary paid him.
In fact our taxpayers have been
singalarly fortsnste in finding a
m2n of Mr. Collins well known
bs~,nsss ability, integrity and
public spirit who is willing to de-
vote a large part of his time,
whether paid for or not, to its
affairs.
Only a lew years ago with re-
publican county commissioners in
charge the voters will remem Der
that warrants had Ia be registered
sometimes for a wear before money
to pay them was available That
ate up interest aud the owner often
sacrificed five or ten per cent in
order to get his money Immediately.
All this has been changed by Mr.. Col
Inns and associates. Every fund is
now in cash and has been since
his second term.
Then we need one commissioner
at the county seat, not wy of in a
vally where consultation is almos,
impossible. There are questions
arising every month in connection
with the poor farm, the hospital,
other county buildings, roads and
bridges that would suffer vastly I'M
less some one in authority could be
quickly reached. Mr.. Collins is
nearly always in Gunnison and al
ways ready TO attend to these
matters.
News Champion believes that the
taxpayers recognize these facts and
will do Themselves 4 service as
we'll as reward earnest public spirited
effort BY re-electing Jos. H. Collins
to the Office Of county commissioner
from the first district.

H. NJ Logan was born at Smith
field, Ohio in 1858, spent the earlier
portion Of his life teaching in the
public schools of Ohio, Iowa, aud
Nebraska, associated himself with
Stone 4 Ayers of Knoxville, Iowa for
tn purpose Of studying law a.d
was admitted to the bar in 1882 and
began the practice Of his profession
as Geneva. He served two terms in
the office Of district attorney IL
Nebraska and for ten years after
ward was one OF the best known
criminal lawyers IN the state.
la 1895 Mr.. Logan came 10 Cole
RADIO on account ol his health and
has been located at Delta since tn
time.
As trial lawyer in his Z -
towa he il we'll and favori,by
known and has been employed on
one side OF the other Of almost every
important case before the courts
In politics he has always been
fearless and energetic advocate #
the principles Of Democracy and has
always taken an interes, in the vel
fare of the Democratic party In the
places he has lived
No man Of equal ability as a trial
lawyer, in any political party, has
yet aspired to the Office of district
attorney in this judicial district
The resolution adopted by the
Democratic Judicial Convention at
Montrose, Colorado, as applicable TO
the district attorney, is as follows:
I'VE pledge our candidate for the
Office of district attorney TO enforce
to the best of his ability the laws OF
the State Of Colorado as he shall
find them on the statute books
OF this resolution, Mr. Logan
says;
"A positive expression of the will
of the people enacted into law IN
clear and intelligible terms, is un-
questionable and invislable, regard
less of the interests it may effect or
the subject of which it treats: and |
stand before the people a candidate
for the Office of district attorney
with no other intention than, if
elected. to redeem the pledge of the
political party which has seen fit TO
recommend me for your considera-
ton. have no other promises to
fulfill and will make none other.

A socialist ticket filed by peti
tioa and another one by an alleged
convention Of five or SIX people from
the north end Of Gunnison county
were both up to County Clerk Hur-
lev for insertion on the ballot this
week. The contest came before the
county court and Judge llethering
ton called in Judge Fred y. Dicker-
son Of Delta After extended argu-
ment Judge Dickerson declared
both tickets defective, the first for
much the same reason that petitions
Tor local option were thrown out, but
in this case three days are allowed
for correction. The second socialist
ticket was declared of, because no
authority existed for calling a con-
vention. the party not having had a
county ticket in the field and not
having polled ten per cent Of the
vote in this state two years ago. 1t

No such greeting was ever given
a presidential candidate in the west
as Bryan received last FRIDAY. Al
though the flying visit only lasted
four hours, sixty Thousand were
gathered to hear him. Twenty
Thousand were packed in the audi
torium and the streets each way for
blocks were jammed. After two
hour address in the building where
he was nominated, an address pro-
nounced the best he ever delivered
in the west, the great Commoner
spoke to overflow meetings outside
The vital arguments of the campaign
were driven home while a breathless
audience hung upon his words
Democrats have the best of the
argument all the way round in this
campaign and Bryan knows how to
take advantage Of every opening
With merciless logic and keen wit
he took up the tariff, contributions,
bank guarantees, the Philippines,
the trusts and has fired the democ-
racy Of the state with new zeal.

Nearly all the local option pc
ttions for vote this fall prove to
have been defective. There seems
to be an immense amount of red
tape thrown around securing of
signatures and the omission Of half
a dozen things that seem unim-
portant invalidates the petition for
vote. An attorney 70. the temp
erance people in the three Gunnison

after examination advised his
clients that it was best to withdraw
them. His opinion is printed below.
The petitions from Sillsville and

Famous Epicures.

In the ceiling of the dining room in
Nero's golden house." on the Palatipe
hill, were compartments inlaid with
ivory which revolved, showering per.
fumes and flowers on the guests
Flowers were presented to the guests
by slaves. They were crowned with
wreaths. Usually after one course the
tables were removed and others placed
before the guests. Throughout the
meal drinking continued until the ban
Queters fell under the table stupefied.
In those days men lived to eat. Great
generals spent fortunes accumulated
In years of warfare in gratifying their
appetites. LuculIus on one dinner with
CiceroS.A and Pompey spent $4,000
drachmas, or $1,000. Pithylus. who
was famed for the delicacy and origi-
nality Of his dinners, wrapped his
tongue In linen when not using it. That
he might better appreciate favors Of
the viands he had 1t cleaned with fish
skin before dining. X F.

Chivalry and Eatness.

Have you never noticed that great
personal bulk and chivalry go almost
always together?, Well, they do, and I
am reminded Of a circumstance that
happened long years ago. There was
in congress from the state Of Alabama
gentleman named Dixon Lewis. He
was notorious for his stoutness as well
as for his courtliness and abilities. This
gentleman was Virginian by birth,
but removed early to Alabama, which
state he represented during several
terms of congress and was in the SEN
ate at the time of his death in 1S4S.
Biographers relate Of him that one
time after the adjournment of con-
gress he was on his way home in a
steamer that was wrecked and while
he had an opportunity to do SO refused
to take seat in small boat because
his great weight would jeopardize the
lives of others in the boat, and, al
though for time he was in great dam
ger, he was at last rescued. There was
a noticeable combination Of chivalry
and fairness. -Washington Post
