The Policy of The Eastern
Colorado Times.

The democratic party of Chey-
enne county has long labored
under the disadvantage of having
no medium through which it
might reach the people on i'm
portant questions that are con-
.tinually arising, and with which
the people generally are unac-
quainted and seldom advised, and
the further disadvantage of be-
ing unable to get its political ex-
pressions admitted to the columns
Of the republican press of the
county.
This is the most important
period in the history of the dem
ocratic party in Cheyenne county
and the columns of this paper
will be open to the admission of
anything on any question in
which the general interests of
the whole people are to be served.
The most important questions in
our political history are to come
before the people this year, and
this paper will keep you posted
on what is happening along po-
litical lines in county, state and
nation, and will, without drawing
distinct party lines. give space
to such readable matter and such
questions as will more nearly
benefit the people as whole. 1t
will be medium through which
the rights of any citizen may find
expression, and will be propa-
gated, prosecuted and financed
on the principles of equal rights
to all and special privilege to
none.

rect primary law and those legal
questions that are to come be-
fore the people now, on short

Tho possession Of too much physi-

of the gentler and lovelier sex. and
often It is caused and maintained by
the habit she mentions. In fact. "just
this once" is the source Of half the
miseries. failures and wrecks Of hu-
man kind.
A bank teller gets tip on the stock
market. He sees a chance to make
several thousand dollars by the In.

possessed of the required sum. The
temptation comes to take 1t from the
banks money and return 1t little
later when he has realized on the
deal. He says to himself: Just this

firm grip on himself, he falls. The
owner Of an unseaworthy vessel,

Women In Holland Prisons.

in the prisons Of Holland, according
to DR.. Simon Won der Aa. who FOR so
years has been the chief Of admins
tration Of prisons in that country.
During my administration three
prisons for women have been closed
for lack Of inmates" declared DR.. Won
der Aa. There are two reasons for
this decrease OF criminal women. One
is the growth Of social work. There
are societies without number not only
to rescue the fallen but to help the
poor and suffering. The other reason
is simply the fact that women arc al
lowed to work and support them
selves honorably. am convinced that
the industrial freedom Of women is
keeping them out OF prison in Hol-

you will have to decide, at a tin e
when you can consult no one as
to the course you should persue,
you will find the answers and
the solutions to all of these ques-
tions in the columns of the East
ern Colorado Times. The great
question before the people today
is, do the people want to rule,
now that they have a chance, or
do they want the corporations
and the money power to rule
them.
At the coming election, next
November, you will have a chance
to decide by your vote at the
polls, as to whether you want to
rule the money plutocrats and
predatory corporations by laws
of your own initiation, or you
want them to rule you. If you
decide that they are to rule you,
vote the republican ticket. If
you decide to rule them, vote the
democratic ticket. 1t is up to
you, and Jour future happiness
will depend on the position you
will take at the poles when you
vote. The Eastern Colorado
Times is democratic in belief,
practice and principle, but it is
going to be run just as much for
the interest of the republican,
socialist, prohibition, social labor
in everything and on every ques-
ton pertaining to the public
good, without regard to party,
place or power. 1t is being pro-
NOTED for the purpose of boost
ing Cheyenne county into the
respectable ranks Of the demo-
cratic party. of raising the price
of its real estate. it's cattle,
horses, sheep and farm products
until the mention of Cheyenne
county in the states east of US
will be the means of bringing
our prices of farm lands to where
they properly belong, $35 to $50
per acre and this paper will never
stop boosting its real estate
values so long as there is anyone
in Cheyenne county to be bere-
fitted by it.
