Nominations by Petition

Our new primary law allows the
filling Of petitions for the placing OF
any candidates. name on the ballot
for the primary election. This petit
ion must be filed with the clerk and
recorder on or before the 2lst day Of
August, and must contain at least
ten per cent of the gubernatorial
votes cast by the political party the
aspirant represents. For instance,
the gubernatorial vote Of the Demo-
Gratis in this county was AGO, ten per
of same is 48, and hence II petition
with 48 signers is sufficient for an as
pirant to get his name printed upon
the primary ballot for q county
office. 1t is doubtful whether there
will be any petitions gotten up for
the forthcoming primary election,
for the reason that both the Republi-
cans and Democrats raked tie coun-
over pretty thoroughly to get candi-
dates for the various offices, but II
any were overlooked it was the fault
of the aspirant in not making his
wants known.

Publication Amendments

There are two initiated bills to be
voted on this fall which provide for
the publication Of initiated laws. One
is by the Direct Legislation league
and provides for issuing the laws in
pamphlet form and mailed to all the
voters In the state. The other bill
proposes to allow one paper from
each party In each county to publish
the laws once. This will cost about
the same as the first bill spoken Of.
The postage alone under the pam
phlet system will be close to &l2, 600
In the case Of newspaper publication
there is no postage to pay but the
cost of publication will run a little
more than the cost of printing the
pamphlets, but as was said before the
final cost will be about the same.
One strong argument against the
pamphlet publication is the fact that
all money paid out to firms In the
state under that system will go to
some big Denver firm and any benefit
financially will be limited to that one
firm In that one town. Under the
newspaper publication system the
money will be distributed all over
the state and thus all sections receive
benefit. 1t will also tend to create an
interest In the newspapers of each
section which will undoubtedly add
to the intelligence of the citizens

Timely And to The Point

The last issue of The Poudre VAL
ley, Windsor, Weld county, contained
the following:
Sheriff Capp of Boulder has his lid
In the ring for the office Of secretary
of state.
Mr.. Capp has made a splendid
sheriff, but what iinpels him to as
pire to an office that Is entirely out
of the line In which he has made
signal success Is more than we can
savy. The offices Of secretary Of state
and county sheriff hold little In COM
mon. The one IL clerical and the
other is utterly different as to duties.
About the only argument upon
which Mr.. Capp Is basing his candi-
dacy Is that James b. Pearce ought
not to want the office for the third
time. The theory of Capp and his
friends is that this Office is purely n
thing to be passed arouEd. and that
as soon as one man has fed at this
particular pie-counter a given period
Of time he should be pried loose and
another man given fill.
This argument never was devised
for political purposes with the idea
of appealing to intelligent men, but
to the prejudices Of the ignorant.
Tradition has established senti-
ment against third term for presi-
dents, and cunning men have quickly
grasped it as q means Of defeating
men for other ofiices-especially in
case they want the offices themselves.
But it fails to appeal to a discrimi-
mating public with the same force as
in the case of presidents.
The public must realize that when
thoroughly capable and efficient
man makes good In an Office like
that of secretary of state 1t is not =
good idea to kick him out solely on
the basis of q maudlin sentiment. II
there are any sensible reasons why
he should be turned down IN favor Of
another man, we'll and good. But no
silly sentiment about third terms
should be accepted.
No man Is SO good that another
may not equal him, but when he Is
SO much better than his predecessors
In the same ONO there should be
more than ordinary reasons for dis
plaeing him with men who have not
proved their capacity for an Office Of
that kind. A mans record in Office
10 either TO his credit or 1t is against
him; the future record Of . new man

secretary Of state during two terms 10
one to be proud Of. He has collected
money for the state that has been
overlooked by his predecessors and
has kept the affairs Of the Office In
the best Of shape at q minimum ex-
pense. His predecessors apparently
cared more about the drawing Of
their salaries than the collection Of
money due the state, for the former
is the only matter they do not neglect.
With an unequaled record in the
history of the state the people can
we'll afford to re-elect one who has
been SO diligent In the collection Of
money from corporations who were
evading their share Of taxation. He
has been insistent and has made
them pay just the same Is private
individuals.

Wilson and the Progressive Move

The sutcsss Of Taft through the
''Old Guard'' at Chicago gives the
Democrats An even better opportun-
ity than tAey had In 1910. The Demo-
cratic Cor,gress has conducted itself
In . prs{seworthy manner under
Clark - 6fsaker and Underwood as
floor leadsf. A number of Democrat
ic govern6rs have given their States
good administrations. The Demo-
cratic convention at Baltimore nom
mated brilliant and commendable
ticket, and adopted al excellent plat
form. HSye the Democrats therefore
earned thb right to win the election
In November, and have the Republic
cans advsrtized their need of rebuke
and defeat? There would seem only
one answer to that question. The
Democrae, led by the ticket Of Will
son and Marshall, would seem to
merit s0ccess, and would also seem
entitled tp expect 1t with n good deal
Of confIdunce. II, indeed, there had
been such acquiescence In the NOM
ination' Of Taft and Sherman that the
Roosevelt movement had been aban-
doned there could only have been
one outcome. Under those condit-
ions, as between Wilson and Taft 1t
Is not easy to figure out where Taft
could have expected to win single

II 1t were merely q matter Of Cover
nor Woodrow Wilson as President
ial candidate, the thing might just
A. we'll be made unanimous.
But great deal more than that Is
involved. There is . Congress to be
elected this year, and another in 1914.
Tho future Of parties must be con-
sidered. The Democratic party ma
chinery in number Of great States,
as in New York, remains In control
of Objectionable bosses and machines.
The Progressive movement, which in
the main represents the energetic self
assertion Of Republican voters who
wish to rehabilitate their own party,
cannot be abandoned merely because
the Democrats, through the force of
circumstances, have been compelled
to nominate splendid ticket. With
the Progressive party thoroughly
launched and In the field, we are
quite certain to have q progressive
minded President, whether It be

REMEDY FOR LICE ON CATTLE
Application Of Crude Petroleum VIII
XIII These Pests-Same Treat
ment Good for Swine.

Calves and yearlings with bald spots
around the head, neck and along the
spine and under the stomach are in
tested with animal lice. Lice prevents
growth and weakens the strength Of
the animal. Give each one a good
washing with warm water and car
bolic soap. Use a good, stiff brush to
cleanse the skin. Take time SO that
thorough work can be done; wipe dry,
then rub in crude petroleum. One
application, II the work is well done,
will be sufficient.
Strong cider vinegar may be used
in place Of the petroleum. Crude
petroleum can be had for 12 cents per
gallon. 1t is valuable for healing cuts
and sores On stock. The same treat
ment should be given to sows and
pigs.
Lice hatch in the woodwork of
stables and pens. Give the stable a
thick coat Of hot lime wash; mix one
ounce of carbolic acid in each bucket
of wash. Get the wash well into the
cracks. Clean out the pen and dust
the floor of the pen and also the yard
with dry air-slacked lime.
Hogs and pigs should have a grass
pasture with a low shed to go under
at night and during hot days. II you
what to see a pig grow. give him
plenty of clover and freshly made mill
fed slop, mixing n handful Of lin
seed meal in the slop nee or twice
a week. Give fresh, Jul water and
charcoal or burnt wood.

Colonel at Mitchell.

Mitchell.-That Mitchell will be IA
vored with an address from Colonel
Roosevelt during the week of the corn
palace is practically an assured thing.
1t has been understood that tbs colo
mel would speak at some point in
South Dakota during his western tour,
and efforts were made to secure him
for the state fair at Huron, but his
presence in the far west prevented
making a date. A letter was received
by the corn palace committee which
practically assures the presence Of
Colonel Roosevelt in Mitchell for some
day during the week of the corn pal
ace, September 1928. Henry F.. o
ems has charge of the speaking tour
of the colonel and ne notified the
committee that Colonel Roosevelt
could be secured for one day in the
latter part of September.

Beauty of Woodwork.

There is a friendly atmosphere in
the presence Of much woodwork-not
painted wood, but wood finished to
show the beauty of it's natural growth
that is entirely lost in an expanse
of smooth, hard paint. Its mellow
lights and soft shades form a far more
restful background than any papered
surface, and it's strength and durabil-
ity make a wood finish ideal for a
