noted author, clergyman, publisher, a
man of unusual accomplishments. will
be mourned by his thousands of
friends. If his theory of the hereafter
holds, however, it is possible that in
his death the world will be benefited
as in no other way. DR.. Funk was a
firm believer in the ability Of those
living to communicate with the dead.
With this in mind he arranged a pri-
vate code with a friend by which he
would talk to him after death. Both

ceive the communication and the code

liticaI chickering's, man Of ma
tTe experience, sound judge
ment and absolutely on the square
with all people, and at all times.
Such a man is A. ID. jameson,
candidate for county Judge on the
Democratic ticket. While a life
long and consistent Democrat, he
believes in politics as a principle
rather than a business, and is es-
sentially a man Of the people. In
the transaction of the peoples
business he is one who would rec
ognize no political or personal
friend to the dctriment of any
one else who had called upon his
services. All would receive cour-
teous treatment and justice. This
is not matter Of conjecture, as
Judge Jomeson has "A record that
vouchcs for these facts AS stated.
A. ID. jameson was born in

at the age Of two years went with
the family to jackson county, la.
When but l6 years old he enlisted
for The Civil war as a volunteer
in Co. IL, 9TH Iowa calvary and
served with honor until the end
Of the war
He came to Golden in 1870, and
served three years as deputy
county clerk. In 1875 he was
elected probate judge and served
until the first election under the
newly-adopted constitution. He
was appointed county attorney at
the conclusion Of his term, but
soon resigned to engage in bust
ness. After a rigid exam
ination by the supreme
court of Colorado he was admit
ted to the bar in 1878, and has
since been one OF The leading at

Gus A. johnson.

While Gus A Johnson certain
ly should be rewarded by being
reelected a county commissioner
of his county, the people of the
county themselves will reap the
greatest reward by again placing
him in the important office. And
a good majority of the people of
the county fully realize that fact,
so that when the totals are fig
ured up next election day the
figures will show a good round
lead for Gus. A. Johnson for
commissioner of the first district.
Mr.. johnson has served on the
board for the past term of four
years and universal opinion is
that he has made one Of the best
commissioners jefferson county
ever had. He has worked early
and late in the interest of the
county and its roads. Since he
has been superintendent of poor
he has made wonderful record,
and the unfortunate people who
have fallen under his supervision
have been looked after better
and more conscientiously than
ever before.
Gus johnson does not claim to
be a politician. He says he is
just a plain Swede farmer. And
that's right, ,-only he is more than
that. He is a hustler, a strong,
conscientious, hard working and
loyal citizen of jefferson county
and a thorough Democrat.
Mr.. johnson is native of
Sweden, born April %, 1861, and
came with his parents to Amer
lea at the age of seven. The
family first settled at Jamestown,
N. Y, but two years later mu we'd
to Des Moines, Iowa, where
young Gus grew to sturdy man
hood. At the age of sixteen he
entered the employ of Young
berry Bros. wholesale and retail
grocers, and rapidly worked his
way up until he reached his ma
jority, when he came to Colo
RADIO Excellent recommended

mained for nearly sixteen years,

attention to gardening and fruit
growing.

consists of a wife and four child
