From a prosperous state, with a rec,

monwealth and are today held up to
the gaze of the people outside our
borders as being unable to pay ou,

achievement
Such in short are the results o,
twenty-one months of Democratic
rule
When Gov. Shafroth assumed COD.
troll of Colorado's government there
was $445,O00 in the treasury as a mes,
egg. Today, even though the receipts
have exceeded those of any other 40

children to educate go elsewhere.
Twenty-one months ago our state
lands were being sold to actual SET
tiers in small tracts for settlement
purposes only. Now they are being
sold to spectators in large tracts for
exploitation purposes and the settlers
are forced to pay double the price
the state receives. Less than sixty

Twenty-one months ago the leaser
of state land, who had developed it to
state of productiveness was permit

one else purchased it the leaser was
paid cne and one-half times the Cost
of his improvements for his trouble
Today exploitation companies form
pools and crowd the original leasers
out, thus discouraging leasing of lands
with the ultimate object of buying the
same.
At the close of the three Republican
administrations every promise made
in their platforms had been fulfilled
to the letter and fulfilled at the reg.

Hercules Just Laughed

It is doubtful if there ever lived
upon the earth another such giant
as was Antaeus. He was so ex-
tremely tall that his head lowered
up among the clouds, and so strong
that a giant tree served as his
walking stick.
But in spite of his great size and
strength he always continued on
good terms with the little nation of
pigmies that swarmed around his
feet, and was dearly beloved by
them. In fact, he was the chief ally
of these little people, not one of
whom was taller than a toad STOOL
He used to help them in their bat
ties with the cranes, and would sit
in the sun on hot summer day
