ELIMINATE THE BOSSES

What the people should do for their
own ultimate good is to eliminate the
Republican machine from the county,
state and nation. BY the machine is
meant the pie boys from Penobscott
Bay TO the Golden Gate including Mer-
Ger. In this category comes the head
pie eaters, Cannon, Aldrich, Payne
and the rest of the outfit, with the
multitudinous combinations of CAPT
tai which the aggregation serves and
which have received legislative profits
at the expense of the people. The
common man has absolutely no show
when pitted against this bunch con-
sidering the vast power it is given
through the influence of money. when
once 1t grabs the reins Of govern
ment. The recourse OF the plain
people is the ballot. and they should
not allow themselves to be fooled any
longer into voting diametrically op-
posite TO their own interests.
1t was shown at its last National
convention that the Republican par
~ has many good spots. Ii declared
for tariff revision and it was given
out that this revision was to be
downward. This is unquestionablv
the will of the Republican majority
but the boss-ridden representatives
OF the party can be trusted only TO
do the bid of their masters who are
not the people who elected them but
trusts who own them body and soul.
Again. the party in West Virginia
declared for certain good measures.

promise to do better before another

Can you afford to let these people
deceive you any longer?

The VIRGINIA Debt.

Taxpayers and voters of West Vir

secure some RELIABLE information
about the status of the Virginia debt
suit before election day. They would

ginia is likely to be held liable for
$40 100000 or more? II tit
They would like to know, i'm this
event how it is proposed to raise the
money to settle the bill?

whether or not it is true, as has been
reported. that prominent West sit.

case against West Virginia? ~
They would like an explanation of
the reason why. when attorneys for
this state assured the legislature of
1909, in a secret meeting of that body.
that there was no danger OF an adj
verse decision in the pending suit.
that Wall street apparently had infor-

Where the Tariff Punched.

Republican leaders have become
suddenly eager to secure a tariff re-
ciprocity treaty between the United
States and Canada. This late awaken
ing of conscience is doubtless due
very largely to the election returns
from Vermont and Maine, for the Dem
ocratic victories in those states were
caused in part at least by the effects
of the Republican tariff as applied to
Canadian trade.
The merchants and workingmen in
the border New England states saw
and felt in their own practical expert
ence the workings of the Payne-Al-
drich bill. Hitherto they had been
taught to believe in protective tariff as
political slogan; many of them had
worshiped it blindly as a party fetch.
Its real meaning had not dawned up
on them because its actual effect had
not come home to them. But when.
as result of the Payne-Aldrich bill.
their commerce with Canada began
to fall off and their everyday business
interests began to shrink and dwin-
die, then they recognized the tariff
for precisely what it is and has been.
and they held Republication respon-
sible.
Naturally, therefore, even the most
reactionary chiefs of the G. o. p. rea-
lie the need of trade reciprocity with
Canada. They did not realize it ear
Tier simply because they did not cred
it the plain people with having eyes
to see and minds to understand.
Within the next fortnight negotia.
tons to establish a reciprocity ar
rangement between this country and
Canada will begin. The whole nation
has cause to be fratified. Our ami
nual trade with our northern neigh.
Dor is considerable in volume and
highly important in its separate
items. The bulk of this trade has
been jeopardized by the Payne-Al
drich bill. It should be said in fair
ness that President Taft himself has
from the early months of his admin
istration desired such a treaty. but
he has been surrounded, as the say
I ing goes. with strong individuals who
know what they want.-Atlanta Jour
nal.

hAHNS PEAK
DESTROYED
County Seat Of Routt County
Wiped off the Map by Fire..
Court House Saved.

Saturday night the town Of Hahns
Peak was practically wiped off the map
by fire. Everything but the Court House
and few small buildings, was burned
to the ground. The Court House was
badly damaged and was in such danger
at one time during the fire that all the
county books and records were taken
out.
The town, which few years ago was
a prosperous mining town of 5000 in
habitants, is now almost deserted, most
of the people having gone to Steamboat
for shelter. 1t is doubtful if there will
be any attempt to rebuild it, as steps are
being taken to have the county seat
changed to Steamboat Springs.
The fire started from defective fue
in the Larson Hotel and spread rapidly
to other buildings in the ne:ghborhood,
under the impulse of a high south wind.
The total loss will probably exceed
$4,000.

that it is on the map. The town has
lain dormant for quite awhile, but from
now on it will just keep getting better
and bigger and more prosperous right
along, and before we realize the fact,
it will he a fourishing city.

SURFACE RIGHTS
BILL PASSED
This Bill Opens to Entry vast
Empire in the West which
was Withdrawn on Ac.
cunt Of Coal De.
posts.

The bill introduced into Congress by
Congressman Mondell of Wyoming has
hnally passed the Senate and has been
sent to the president for his signature
There is little doubt that he will sign it
at the earliest opportunity.
This law will open up to settlement a
vast empire in the west. There are sew
eral townships here in North Park that
have been withdrawn on account of
coal or other mineral deposits, which
will now be opened to entry.
The main provisions of the bill are
that the surface Of the land belongs to
the tiller of the soil and he will now be
able to farm it for whatever it will pro
duce. Whatever lies under the surface
in the form of a mineral belongs to and
is under the exclusive control of the
Government, and it also reserves the
right of ingress and egress and as much
of the surface as may be necessary to
properly work any minerals that may
be found on the land.
An attempt to take advantage of the
Mondell Surface Rights bill to mine coal
or other minerals will be looked upon as
fraud and anyone who tries it will be
liable to prosecution on such grounds

Labor's Greatest Curse.

1t seems strange that, after tracing so
much poverty and crime direct to the
saloon, the American people do not rise
en- masse and obliterate it from the face
of the earth. No one who keeps pace
with the times can deny that the saloon
is responsible, either directly or indirect
for nine tenths of this poverty and
crime. No one can deny that it is
whiskey that has made the coward Il
demon who took the life Of hIs fellow
man. No one can deny that in nearly
every walk of life its baneful influence
can be traced, from the United States
Senate to the almshouse and penitent-
iary. No we'll advised trades unionist
can deny that larger part of the in
fernal quarrels and chickering's among
trades unionists have have been con-
cocted in the back rooms of saloons
The greatest curse to the labor move.

names ''Dpdes" and "Rough Necks
