make it's report of the city's fl
nancial condition to the tax-pay-
ers, if at all? If you are going
to make a statement of the
amount of money derived from
all sources and the manner in
which you have spent it, why
don't you do it. This statement
should have been made before
the election so that the tax-pay-
ers might have known how faith
fully their hired servants had
been to their trust. and whether
they were of such sufficient hon.
esty as to warrant their re-elec-
ton.
If there is any further delay
in the making of this statement,
we will take it as prima facia
evidence that you are afraid to
make it.

Now we come to who we want
for president. The apostles of

for an instructed delegation for
Woodrow Wilson. Chairman Hill
dropped the gavel and announced
nothing doing. The apostles then
asked for an instructed delega-
ton for Champ Clark, but with
the same result. By this time
George Clossen, Sr., Of Arena,
fell off the fence and suggested
the delegates go uninstructed,
and supported his contention
with cowboy story, the conven-
ton enjoyed, and decided to send
the delegates uninstructed. Mr..
Clossen was made alternate to
H. Y. Tarwater and we expect
him to show up at Colorado
Springs in excellent condition for
unloading that cow stuff and
funny tales about the boys on
the range. J. P. Cahill, 3. D.
