MAKES GOOD RECORD

Two years ago Secretary of
State James B. Pearce was prac.
.tically unknown outside of his own
county and the district court of
which he had been clerk for many
wears. When elected to the Office
of Secretary of State, his FIRST work
was to systematic the affairs OF
that office, and in it's conduct has
been very methodical.
A complete list of the corpora
tons that owed the State Flat Tax
was compiled during moments of
spare time of the office force, ard
MIR. Pearce went to work collecting
this tax, which his predecessor
had made no attempt to do. In
the first seventeen months of his
present term he collected and
turned into the treasury an excess
of $6O,576.49 over the collections
of his predecessor, for flat tax
alone.
He has without cost to the State,
compiled the corporation laws,
consolidated three department
cash books into one indexed every
instrument in his office that could
be indexed, instituted system of
checking in his office that renders
mistakes impossible, and allows
the exact receipts of the office each
day to be known within five min
utes after closing time.
In undermining his office Mr..
Pearce has made it possible to do
more work with less help. and his
record for the past two years GER
tainly merits reelection.

WATCHING HIS SMOKE

Two years ago Senator Chester
l. Long and Representative Victor
Murdoch, both of Kansas, met on
Washington street. Long, religi-
ously a regular" had observed in
Murdoch a disposition to make
trouble for the House Republican
machine, and he demonstrated.
Victor" he said, "you can no
more change the rules of the House
than you can reach up and scratch
the moon. They are the product
of hundred years"
You watch my smoke" said
Murdoch, briefly.
The most casual observer of
events in Washington since that
day has seen a good deal of Victor
Murdock's Smoke" Mr.. Long
may now watch it from private
life, the people Of Kansas having
replaced his regularity in the Sen
ate with Bristow's insurgency"
A n d Murdoch, after having had IL
leading part in the last two ses-
sions' series of remarkable fights
against ring rule in the House, is
stronger than ever with the people
Of his district and of his state;-

BE it resolved that we, the del

day of October, 1910, do hereby
endorse and adopt the platform of
the Republican party of the state
of Colorado, a. made and adopted
by the Republican state conven-
ton, held at Colorado Springs.
September Goth, 1910.
I'VE especially, however. wish
to condemn the Democratic rarty
for the actions Of it's governor in
calling an extra session of the leg
islature, causing pseless expense
TO the whole people of the state, 10
promote his personal political am
bition; also the action OF ito State
Land Board for its unfair, arbitrary
and unjust dealings with the rent
ers and purchasers Of stale land in
this county and the San Luis Val
ley.
I'VE heartily endorse the &C
tons Of Hon. J. s. Campbell for
his conscientious Performance of
his duty rs the representative Of
the people, not only Of this county,
but Of the state Of Colorado
1t is very evident that Mr..
Campbell was not consulted in the

James s. Campbell. the nominee
for the 18th general assembly, has
made good during his first term.
He has voted his conviction on
every measure that came up in
both the regular and special SIS.

the measures that Governor Shat.
roth stands for. At one time he
was the only member Of his party
that withstood all the pressure
that the machine could bring to
bear upon him aud voted right.
We make the prediction that
Mr.. Campbell will not endorse the

vention that nominated him. Mr..

bring TO bear. There is a budget COM
mittee Of the Mexican congress. But
the budget committee IS Limantour. His
word is the committees law.
Limantour Cautious.
In the ordinary running of the gov
eminent the principal rule which oper-
ates is simple and invariable. Each de-
partment is allowed only as much
money as Limantour is sure can be OBJ
tanned from the revenues. In other
words, the expenses are forced to fit
the nations income. There are no
deficits, excepting upon extraordinary
occasions. Limaptour will not allow
them. Therefore Mexico presents the
rare spectacle of a nation the receipts
Of which, year after year, are much
more than the expenditures. There is
no borrowing to meet DEFICIENCIES.
The Mexican government today is one
of the few nations on earth which is in
the position OF a commercial house
tablished and run strictly upon bust
ness principles. Mexico is in business,
in a manner OF speaking, to make
money, and not 70 lose it,
To an investor of today who planks
down his money for Mexican bonds at
par, or better, a humorous appeal will
be made when he is told OF times when
$500, coo cash was realized on a Mexican
loan of 81 100000. In one extremity the
old-time financiers of the nation ran
through the printing press an immense
number of papai bulls, which had been
sent to Mexico from Rome to be dis
pensed as indulgences to the faithful
upon payment Of a price. By printing
on the blank backs of the bulls prom
Uses to pay the government converted
them into treasury notes and put item
into circulation.
Mexico's Deficit Eliminated.
The deficit was eliminated from Mex
ico's financial scheme of life as far
back as the budget Of 1855, only
year or two after Limantour became
minister OF finance. Before then finance
ministers had groaned and walled over
the deficit deploring it soulfully, but
admitting their inability to prevent the
nation from, to quote one minister,
marching bIfndfolded to the inevitable
abyss Of irremediable bankruptcy.
In the past IA years excuses Of ordin-
airy revnues over ordinary expenditures
has ranged from $500, 900 to s29, 900, 600
yearly. Last years surplus was nearly
SIS, 900, 900. In the period mentioned the
aggregate SURPRISES have amounted 10
more than s13s. 600. 900, Of which $751;
100000 has been devoted to public
works and the remaining s75.000,00e
converted into cash reserve.
Conservative Estimates.
Conservative and exact estimation OF
