1t has come to point where the con-
test workers are settled down to the
work of securing and turning in sub
scriptiOns. The time for talk and con-
lecture is past. Either you are in to
win or you are tagging. Ifthe latter is
the case the outcome of such candidacy
should be plain to you. Nothing sue
ceeds like success and to be successful
you must at the same time be persistent
and confident in what you undertake.
The feeling that you can win will do
much to help you in your work. A per-
son with sufficient confidenence can
accomplish whatever he or she wishes.
Ann example the story is told of the
MI who declared that he would wager
large sum against a smaller one by
another that he could pass thourgh the
Office of big town building with a
certain petition and induce six men out
of every ten to sign it just by assur-
ance he would exhibit as he entered.
The wager was mace and the petition
bearer went through the Office. When
he emerged he showed the waiting
crowd the names of twenty men out of
twenty-seven who had signed pitition
to have themselves hung for not look
ing more closely to the document pre-
sented. While this illustrates the ten
dency of people to be slipshod in noting
petitions and what they call for, the
tale likewise is a good example of the
confidence on the part of the person
who approaches you will call. This
same confidence serves to make
financial successes out of men
who start life with nothing
more than jack-knife and an apple
core. Have confidence in yourself. You
have the best proposition any man
could obtain when you 70 q to friend and

parade, and the crowds gather
to watch the grand spsctaculor parade
given by the Campbell Brothers Big
Consolidated Show when they exhibit
in Julesburg on Wed. May, 18th

Horses are always leading fea-

Brothers have spent years in raising
and training there hundreds and
hundreds Of fine horses that are ex-
hibited both in the free street parade,
and in the various ways under the big
top.
The horses are attractive, but we
must not fail to mention their riders;
scores and scores of really beautiful
women. gaily and magnificently cos
tuned and all exhibiting different
feats of horsemanship and daring.
Then, there are the almost ungovern.
able horses and bror chos that are
mounted by cowboys, and the troop
of Russian Cossacks, whose services
Campbell Brothers have secured d.
rect from the Steppes of Russia, at
enormous expense, and who are IA
nous the world over for performing
the most wonderful and reckless feats
on horseback with their horses going
at full speed. Don't fail to see them;
also many other features too numer-
GUS to mention that are always q
part of every circus, as groups of
beautiful women poeed as various
characters on the huge glittering
wagons, bands of music anG clowns,
to say nothing of the valuable menag-
erie that is carried with these shows.

Should the plans of the war depart

course, lose the department headquar-

GERS in Denver surely be selected as bri-
gade headquarters. Under the pro-
posed reorganization the several divi-
sions would be subdivided into brigade
districts and this city would be named
as head of its district.

Dix Is First Democrat Te
Be Governor In 10 Years

ALBANY, N. ", Jan. 2.-"Let not
your heart be troubled"
This verse of scripture from the
fourteenth chapter OF John is to be
the watchword of John A. Dix, New
Yorks first Democratic governor IN
sixteen years.
In taking the oath Of office today
Gov. Dix kissed this text, selected by
his wife.
The new state executive was in
augurated at the capitol following a
spectacular military. and civic parade
beginning at IL o'clock. He rode in
his automobile accompanied by mem
bere of his staff.
Outgoing Gov White and his stai>
also figured in the procession.
The inaugural exercises opened
with a prayer by Bishop Deane. The
oath OF office was administered by
Secretary OF State Lazansky. Just as
the last words of the oath were re
peated the band played The Star
Spangled Banner" and the guns o
the first battery fired salute of |!
guns. Ex-Governor White then made
an address, which was followed by
tlfe Inaugural duuTeSS Ol the new
governor.
A reception was held at the exccu
tive mansion this afternoon
In his inaugural address Gov Di'
said in part:
Frankly. we have reached poln
in our state where we are living be
yond our means. The pressing duty o.
the hour Is a measure OF reform anC
retrenchment which will reverse this
condition and restore us to the healthy
and normal position where we shall
have something more than a largely
fictitious surplus.
II realize that this is neither a plea
SAINT nor popular position for an in
coming governor to take. | doubt no'
1t would be more conducive to or
easy popularity were ! TO use this oc
tasion to suggest that the attention
of the people should be fixed upon the
solution Of abstract questions having
10 do with conduct and morals--all ad
mirable and necessary in their way
rather than to direct attention to the
humdrum but nevertheless vital prob
lem OF receipts and expenditures.
I'm my opinion II is far better tC
insist on convenience and duty In pub
lie statements than to resort TO an ex
penditure which will compel a return
TO increased taxation"
