CONDEMNED

The republican county oonven-
ton at Monte Vista, Monday, con-
demned the state land board, con-
sisting of Governor Shafroth,
president; Attorney General John
T Barnett; Secretary of State, j.
B. Pearce; Katherine NJ. Cook,
state superintendent of public in.
structiou, and B. L. Jefferson,
register, "for it's unfair, arbi-
trary and unjust dealings with the
renters and purchasers of state
lands in this county and the San
Luis Valley"
No member of the convention
explained how, or in what respect
the land board had been unfair,
arbitrary and unjust in its deal
ings with renters"
A land agent however made this
explanation: He said the leasers
of state and school lands who bave
helped develop the valley and been
deprived of crops by drouth and
hail ought to be allowed to buy in
these lands at former appraised
values and not be held up for what
the lands are now worth.
Under former administrations,
as is we'll known, the leasers have
been favored and as result state
leases covering period of three or
four years have been selling from
$1,000 to 5000. One lease is re-
ported to have been sold for $75
per acre.
The present land board has con-
Quoted business according to the
law and has shown no favoritism.
During twenty months sales of
$4,000 acres have Melted
$2,554,5OO. This money goes to
the school fund and to the state
and is the best showing any ad-
ministration has ever made. No
leaser has been held up. unless it
is robbing man to pay 30 or 40
cents an acre for state lands while
adjoining lands, owned by a priv
ate individual, are rented at - an
acre.
The Monte Vista journal., 1910-10-08
STATE LAND BOARD

A land agent made the remark .
few days ago that he would not vote
for Shafroth, neither would the
settlers in the valley vote for him.
He gave as his reason that the
state land board was holding up
the men who have state leases for
all the land il worth. He says
these men on state lands have had
a hard struggle, some times with IA
crop failure and ought to be al
lowed 10 buy in the lands under
lease for the prices that prevailed
a few years ago. He says these
men have made lands valuable and
ought to be considered.
This land agent condemns the
land board for complying with the
laws. Men who take state leases
know that state leases that have
three or four years 10 run have
brought from $1,000 to $4,000 per
quarter section during the past
six or eight years.
As q matter Of fact the State
Land Board is selling the lands in
compliance with tho laws. The
lands are advertised and sold to
the highest bidder, ne leaser get.

CONSERVATION

luz lTIISdClOn congress n
Pueblo last week took broad aud
sensible views Of conservation.
The following by Alfred L.
Baker, a business man, is to the
point. Among other things, he
says:
However restricted at the out
set, Conservation has grown into a
large and more comprehensive
movement, and its principles in
clude the conservation of ideals
that make for good citizenship.
III We give the credit of this
achievement to the business man,
he should also bear the RESPONSE
bility Of the evils which have been
engendered. The gravest evils
which have developed out of our
commercial prosperity are the I'M
controlled power of great wealth,
the growth of monopolies and their
sinister influence upon our polite
al institutions.
Industrial efficiency may justify
the union Of many smaller corpor-
atoms into one big one, but if it
leads to industrial despotism this
efficiency is obtained at the sacri-
fees of industrial freedom. No
one nowadays, on the ground of
efficiency, believes in . political
despotism.
"Since Cleveland's time, how
tremendous has been the growth
in the combinations of capital and
industry. But, of more import
ance than the size of the corpora
tons and the combinations of
capital, is the activity in our
political arena of the agents and
members of these corporations;
they are not there to advocate
measures for the welfare of the
community but to obtain for them.
selves special privileges, to gain
some advantages in disregard of
the public welfare aud merely for
private gain. These conditions
are precipitating an economic and
political crisis, in which the issues
are not to be between the two
great political parties but between
ranks which are being formed to
give battle on these new issues re-
gardless of party lines.
1.-TWO years ago the Conference
Of Governors adopted declaration
of principles which the President
said should hang on the wall Of
every school-house for education
Of every citizen who is to become
a voter in the next generation.
Conservation has become the
watch. word of the hour; the
widespread use of the word has
given to it meaning undreamed
Of in the beginning. In tho form
of an intelligent energy it has ap.

"A Candidates Edition."

"A Candidates. Edition" is a
new one and yet seemingly appropri-
ate to the approach of primaries and
elections. The grouping of all the
candidates, with their claims. por-
traits and biographies, in one issue,
makes a paper easy of reference for
voters, and has the advantage of pre-
senting the whole view Oh the field as
to those seeking positions. and then
the one paper a be easily pre-
served, or kept at hand, for consul
tation. and comparison OF the claims
of candidates and parties. This new
kind of special edition was adopted
hy the Bcllevillc, Kansas, Telescope,
in It's issue of July a7th. a page and
a quarter was given up to the official
announcement by the Comfy Clerk,
Of all the candidates Of the different
parties, or the primary party tickets,
Republican, Dcmocratic, Socialist
and Prohibition, for the primary cleo
ton, with the da,a of election and an
enumeration OF the prccints, etc.
This is legal advertising and, from a
newspaper publishers standpoint, is
a vast Improvements over the old
method when the newspaper vas ex-
peCtc,i to do this service for the pub
he without charge or reward. The
announcement .. the candidates ard
their claims were also treated. in
times past, simply as news, and can
di"atcs often forgot to thank the pa
Per for this publicity, and the party
managers looked upon all the work
OF the editor as for the good of the
cauae. Now candidates are expect
ed to pay tor space il the paper the
same as other advertisers, and no
more think OF using q papers COL
umus without pay than OF using the
teams OF a livery'stahic without paw
at least that seems to have become
the rule III many sections OF cnr ureat
Republic. There may be danger Of
TOO much commercially il. practical
politics but, certainly, it is letter
mat the announcements OF cardi-
daIes, and OF parties and their Claims
should appear openNy as advertising
than that a species Of secret briber,
of the press should be carried, on
where the newspap:rpublisher secret
ly sells his columns and his editorial.
to candidates or parties. 1t is fair
that the people. the Members of the
parties aud the individuals should

than that the press should bear all the
burden. Advertising should be hon.
est and must be honest to be effective.
Under this new plan the people are
given all sides and can judge for
themselves. There remains, then,
no grounds for suspicion that the pub
Usher or editor is only working for
the promised position of postmaster
or other appointive office, or for a
private bribe. The new way is a
business method. II a man wants an
employment. he advertises. Offices
are nothing but employments, though
the newspaper editor and publisher
as representing his constituents-all
the ~people--has an obligation or duty
to them and to himself, as one of the
people, to see to it that unworthy,
dishonest or inefficient employees do
not get employment through fraud
ulent advertising. Every newspaper
should have honest principles and
convictions that are above purchase
and an editor should never sell his
editorial u~tterances to candidates or
politicians any more than he would
sell them to merchants.
Advertising should appear as adj
vertising. The old view that adver-
Using is less effective in exploiting
the truth and winning credence and
votes, because it is known as such
and is paid for, honestly, has been
proven to be by actual test.
The truth presented honestly, clearly
and convincingly wins fame and de-
mand alike for men and measures as
for merchandise, lands or stock. So
in recognition Of these facts and ex-
listing conditions, this Kansas publish
er gets out an extra "Candidates'
Edition" to serve them more ef-
fec.ively and conveniently and to at
ford space for this political advertis-
ing at the opportune or proper time,
just as Christmas editions are issued
to accommodate the special and in
creased holiday advertising, and the
announcements, in this way, are az
proper space and display.
