THoSE who honestly favor the principles of local self govern ment are not pay ing any of the cost of the expensive campaign now being waged against state wide prohibition. The cost of this campaign is being borne entirely by the organized whis- key, saloon and brewery inter ests. These debauching inter- ests are the same that have been buying up the legislatures and bringing shame and disgrace on the state of Arkansas for the past several years by the bribery scandals, etc. In view of this fact, it would be a fitting re- buke to the organized whiskey saloon interests. if every true and loyal citizen would lay aside all small differences and stand together on Sept. 9th on the question of temperance.

To the Citizens.

xO t2C NSti4C -ASs
 In announcing myself as can didate for County Clerk, to be voted on in September election, 1 wish to say in part, that l have done so after being nominated by the citizens on June 9th, and having been besieged by my friends from all parts of the county to accept this nomination.
 wish to. say the most lm- portant and complicated problem before the people is the solving of the county,s finances. l fully realize the averse conditions of the finances of the county and the way in which the finances of the county have been running for the past few years. We req lize that the present deficit in the county's general funds has reached the enormous sum of more than twenty-fve thousand dollars and the road funds more than twelve thouEahd dollars. These sums aaneA2lmost equal the net revenbe eoAering the as- sessing of theAaf Np funds for one year. sayi E fothing of the sum of eleven h{usaAd five hun- dred dollars additional indebtsd- ness on the peopla oa account of the above note being taken up by the citizens of Clarendon, to be redeemed at about double the amount named. This sum, to- gether with present deficit. will name the sum of more than forty thousand dollars indebtedness to be t; kea up by the citizens, this beirg more than one third of the total revenue than the cOunty's general revenue amounts to for one yearA
 Then l wish to call your atten- tion to the fact that in the past three years the people have suf- fered a raise in taxation of real estate from one to five dollars per acre, and that we have this year paid into our treasurer more than fourteen thousand dollars revenue over and above that of any previous year. Then, I would say. where would our f. nancial statement be if we had not paid this enormous sum over and above our regular revenue? l would say, friends and citi- zens, ifsthe present administra- tion has caused a debt on our county that has reached the enormous sum as above men, toned, which challenge the in- telligence of the county to search our present financial statement of County Clerk, Jas. Engel, to bear out my statement, and has thrown our warrants and script on market value of fifty cents per one hundred, we. should feel our responsibilities in this matter so great and the task so in.- portant that we should invite the cooperation of every citizen, and advise together, to find the best method of correcting the abuses of our county's financial system. | We all realize that nothing but injury can come to the county by failure to promptly and courag- eously readjust it's finances. It must be done some time, and the sooner it is accomplished, the better for our county and the people. It takes no argument lon the part of the writer to con- vince any citizen that the greater [the debt of the county the higher

The Colorado statesman., 1912-09-21
WHY ARE HOLES IN CHEESE?
Experts at the Bureau Of Animal In
dustry Tell All About
Them.

Why are the holes in cheese? This
is no midsumer gag" or mere conun-
drum, but a serious query Just put
forth by the United States Department
of Agriculture in bulletin issued by
the bureau Of animal industry.
Did you. victim OF the Swiss cheese
habit, ever stop to consider why the
holes. what makes them and what do
they contain? The next time you or
der a cheese sandwich remember the
following facts about the gases that
cause their formation and II you are
terrorlzed by the scientific terminol-
ogy be careful not to eat the holes:
The gases of 1ormal "eyes" in EN-
mental cheese are exclusively carbon
dioxide and nitrogen and OF these only
the carbon dioxide is OF significance.
There sometimes occurs during the
initial fermentation a gas character
ized by the presence Of hydrogen.
This Is believed to be due to the
gaseous fermentation Of sugar.
The two lamentations are distinct
and are characterized by their gas
eous products. The one is detrimen-
tai. the other that demanded of a
sood Emmental cheese.
High oxygen-absorbing power COM
bined with low permeability of the
cheese to air renders the interior
thoroughly anaerobic and consequent
ly favorable to the growth Of anaero-
bic bacteria.
A comparison between the amount
of carbon dioxide evolved and the to-
tai of volatile fatty acids shows that
the activity of the propionic bacteria
of Won Freudenreich and Jensen Is
not sufficient to account for all the
carbon dioxide found.

CAPITAL CAR TICKETS SAFE
Between 100000 and 10000, 900 Arc
Used Annually by Washing
tonlans.

No tokens OF value issued by any
concern in Washington come SO near
being actual hard cash as do the
street car tickets, which sell six for
quarter. The stock market may go
up or down: the cost of living may
fuctuate; interest rates may vary; the
purchasing power of that standard of
all values. gold itself. may be moro
today than tomorrow; but through 1t
all. In hard times and good times
alike. the little coupons cost Just the
same and get the buyer Just as much.
Like postage stamps, they have fixed
price. below which no one can buy
them and above which no one can sell
them. Like postage stamps. also, they
are good for one fare" In the very act
OF giving which they are cancelled at
once. and their usefulness is gone for
ever.
Millions OF dollars are represented
by these humble bits OF pasteboard.
Between S0.000.000 and 90,OO0.O00 OF
them almost one for every person in
the United States-are circulated in
the district every year. In all. be-
tween 30 and SIS per cent of all money
received by these companies for the
transportation OF passengers in the
district is first exchanged for car tick
cts. which are accepted unquestion-
ably by all conductors.
Washington street railroad officials
attribute the entire immunity from
imitation which their tickets enjoy
to the great care with which they are
gotten up. as well as the strict meth
DDS of accounting for all those issued.
These causes. of course. are in addi-
tion to the severe penalties which the
law visits upon counterfeiting.

HIS ARGUMENT WON ATHEIST
Perhaps Not Strictly Ethical, but II
Accomplished What the Rector
Set Out to Do.

In raising money to pay for a new
church a preacher sometimes has to
shut his eyes to the dollars tossed
into the plate or slipped into the du-
plex envelopes. DR.. Robert Nelson
Spencer. rector of Trinity Episcopal
church, tells this story about broth
er clergyman who once went bit
further:
This rector, DR.. Spencer says, was
SO hard put to it that he decided to
solicit funds from an atheist saloon
keeper, who was reputed to be the
wealthiest man In the district.
One day, when the rector and the
saloonist, with whom he was well
acquainted, met on the street. the
churchman put the question good and
strong.
81 don't believe in the church: It
hurts my business" retorted the booze
merchant, with Indignation in his
voice.

his most conciliatory manner. listen
to reason. l maintain that II 1t
wasn't for the church you wouldn't
have a chance in the world, The
church is the pioneer Of civilization.

lightenment burns dimly or not at all

a good imitation Of enthusiasm. What
would those cannibals do to you the
first time one of their number got a
drink at your bar and appeared be-
fcre his tribe intoxicated? Why. sir,

that's what they would do"

Jr., leader of the Mexican revolution
in the north, is at the head of his
troops in the Oiinga district and has
succeeded in reorganizing the rebel
forces scattered by the federal column
of General Trucy Aubert
In his communication to rebel
agents here, General Orozco said he
had heard of the capture by United
States troops at Preside, Tex, of his
staff officers, including his father,
Colonel Pascual Orozco. He explained
the cause of his defeat at Ojinaga, and
declared that he had succeeded in
gathering his forces and moving down
the Conchos river with little loss of
men or horses.
orozco reported that only his ad-
vance had participated in the fight at
Ojinaga, and that after the first vic
tory, when he was about to bring up
his main body of men, the rebel ad-
vance participated in Fiesta" and
drank too heavily of native liquor.

Greatest Novel.

What is the greatest novel?" is a
question that admits of almost as
many answers as there are types OF
mind. Ten Thousand a Year" Don
Quixote," William Meister." Iris

Hearth" "The Scarlet Letter" Ivan
hoe" ION the Heights" Robert Els
mere" Looking Backward" and a
hundred others are great novels, and
each one of them IS the greatest nov

the temper of soul and cast of mind
in the particular individual. The novel
that produces the greatest impression
upon you and gives you the greatest
all-round satisfaction is for you the
