of the famous Sindbad In the Arabian
Nights"
The hero. a very ancient mariner. be
gins by saying that he was one Of a band
Of l50 fearless adventures, whose hearts
were stronger than lions, and who had
seen heaven and earth They were on
their way to the mines Of Pharaoh In q
ship Of $50 cubits. but i'll fate awaited
them. for presently the wind rose and
threw up mighty waves and the ship was
wrecked.
Every one perished but the hero. who
was washed ashore on a piece Of wood.
He found himself stranded upon an ISL
and. but It was no desert. There were
fruits and goodly herbs and many other
fine things The sailor had been piously
brought up, fer after enjoying good
meal he made an offering to the gods.
Immediately the marvels began. and II
is clear that the good character OF the
hero saved him from destruction. for the
terrible aspect. his body overlaid with
gold and his color q bright blue. How
ever. the serpent did him no harm. but
politely asked how he had reached the
island.
Being satisfied with the answer. the
king of the serpents. for II was no less a
parsonage, carried the sailor in his mouth
to a place. where there was a tribe OF
seventy-five other serpents. The serpent
king said: IT thou hast come to me II Is
God who has let you live. 1t is He who
has brought you to this Isle Of the Blest.
where nothing is lacking and which Is
filled with all good things"
The serpent then told him to be OF good
cheer. for he would be rescued by ship
from his own land in three months. Our
Egyptian Sindbad spent much Of his time
watching for the ship from the top of
tall tree. At last II arrived. and the first
thing he did was to run to the kind ser
pent TO tell him. His surprise was great
when he found that the SERPENT knew all
about IL. and had some gifts ready for
him to take away. On parting the ser
pent said: Farewell, go 10 thy home and
see thy little children once more: let thy
name be good in thy town
The sailor was very grateful for the
to speak for the serpent before King
Pharaoh and to return with ship full
of treasures nit for such friend Of men
cast away in a far-of land. But the SER
pent said no: they would not meet again.
for the magical island would disappear
and melt away when he was gone.

Progressive Republican Candidate for
United States Senator to Succeed
Senator GuggenheIm.

The old saying, Strange conditions
come out of politics" is well verified
in the contest of Mr.. Vincent for the
senatorship. He was the only Republ-

liar to politics,

Colorado man, however, he has ap
peared year after year In the state
conventions of the party demanding
that the party be restored to the
voters and taken away from the ma
chine In control of it.
Mr.. Vincent is one of the most Wig
orous campaigners in the West. In
his home in Delta county he is re-
garded as an ideal citizen, being
one OF the plain people and in no
sense tainted or contaminated with
corporation. or other control, of any
character. He is an ideal candidate
to go with clean hands before the peo-
pie and make an appeal for their suf.
frage.
Mr.. Vincent is an attorney. highly
educated and possesses pleasing ap-
pearance. He is a profound student
of political economy and man who
can express himself so plainly and
forcibly that his appeals reach the peo-
pie Of every class and condition. He

mission to the bar In 1899 he has de-
voted himself to his practice and is

close contact with the conditions ex-
listing among coal miners. and has
strongly advocated that In all cases
where person is killed while in the
performance Of his work the employer
should assume portion of the loss
by paying reasonable indemnity so
that the entire loss is not thrown upon

II DO HEREBY SOLEMNLY
SWEAR COR AFFIRM) THAT AM
"A QUALIFIED VOTER, THAT AM
A MEMBER OF AND AFFILIATED
WITH ONE OF THE POLITICAL
PARTIES REPRESENTED BY BAL
LOT AT THIS PRIMARY ELECTION,
AND THAT WILL AT THIS ELEC-
T1ON VOTE ONLY UNDER THE
BALLOT AND ONLY FOR THE CAN
DIDATES OF THE POLITICAL
PARTY OF WHICH I AM A MEM.
BER AND WITH WHICH AM AT
FILIATED."
The reader will note that this oath
has no bearing whatever upon his
conduct as an elector In the fall cleo
ton to be held in November The oath
says: AND THAT I WILL AT THIS
ELECTION VOTE ONLY" etc.
When you go into your booth at the
election to be held In November the
form of ballot will be the same and
the law governing the conduct of the
election the same as 1t has been here
tofore. THE OLD ELECTION LAW
WAS NOT CHANGED, ALTERED OR
DISTURBED BY THE NEW PRl-
NARY LAW.
Your vote at the primary cannot
bind you In any way for the fall cleo
ton.
To illustrate: II you voted Repub-
lican ticket at the primary on Septem-
ber 10 and conditions should, arise
which led you to believe that you had
made mistake in casting your pri-
mary ballot for certain candidates who
had manifestly deceived you, you
would have the legal and moral right
and would be Justified and warranted
ir voting for some other candidate at
the election on Tuesday. November s.
The vital intent and purpose of
primary law Is to permit the people to
make their own nominations instead
Of having the nominations made by
conventions packed by the machine in
control Of parties-as 1t has been here
tofore.
At the coming primaries 1t is vitally
important that the people of Colorado
should go to the polls and register
their votes for good men who will
guarantee clean government
Go to the primaries and give the old
machine Its last lesson.
Go to the primaries and show your
appreciation OF a law that restores to
you your rights In the electorate Of
the state.
Go to the primaries and nominate
men who will conduct the affairs of
the state as any ordinarily prudent
and cautious man would conduct
them. and not as the politician con.
ducts them.
The primary law is a potent appeal
to the sensible man and woman of the
state. 1t stirs their patriotism. awak-
ems them to full realization of the
duties Of citizenship. and clothes them
with power whereby they can nom.
mate men who will represent them as
servants and not as masters.
