PROHIBITION OR PROSPERITY.

Does Colorado want immigration
and capital to develop her resources,
or does she want to drive them away
as Kansas and Iowa have done?
Does Colorado want her wise and
tested local option laws repealed and
enforcement of the laws taken from
the hands of the city officials and
placed in those of the state authori-
ties? This will happen If statewide
prohibition is voted for.
Does Colorado want low tax rate
or a heavy burden Of taxation which
Is inevitable under prohibitionN
Does Colorado want a decreased
revenue by abolishing the saloon H.
cense without diminishing the sale or
use of liquor? That is what has oc-
Cured in prohibition states. Is there
any reason to suppose Colorado will
be different from all the rest?
Is not local option and local self
government the right way, the best
way, the most practical way, to de-
eide the license issue?

one OF the best known pioneers in
Nevada, had died at his home in Sill

and was apparently in his usual
good health Yesterday he was busy
about his home without complaint
Last night his wife heard him groan-
ing and when she reached his side
life was all but gone. tIe passed
away shortly after. Heart failure is
believed to be the cause OF death.
Greedy French was a real pioneer.
He was among the few remaining
who fought the Indians, who blazed
the paths and who stuck with Neva-
da as his home. He had opinions Of
his own and expressed them and in
this made staunch friends and some
enemies Nevada loses a mighty

were lacking in this city.
