WITHOUT A PLATFORM

The thwarted ambition of an in
dividual and not disagreement with
the political principles of the dom
inant faction of the Republican
party, brought forth and is direct
ing the entire third party move
ment. The evidence at hand
abundantly establishes the correct
ness of this statement There is
and can be no real agreement on
principles among the men promi-
nent in the Roosevelt party move
ment.
Roosevelt proposes to get re-
venge by defeating the party that
has honored him with the highest
place in the gift of the nation.
There may have been some
thieves IN the Chicago convention,
but the rank and file were AS hon
est as when they nominated Theo-
dore Roosevelt eight years ago.
When a man knowingly sits
down to Il game with thieves "he
should take his medicine" Roos-
evelt is no novice in the game of
politics. In this weeks issue of
La Follette's, Gilbert G. Roe will
analyze the testimony produced
before the national committee at
Chicago. This is something Roos-
evelt has failed to do. He cries
thief but does not specify.

MONTE VISTA PEOPLE
VISIT GUNNISON

The Ca,tlemen Of Gunnison
cour ty held their annual cclcbra-
tion on July 18th and 10Th and
the crowd in attendance those two
days was something immense.
Early on the morning of the 18th
people began streaming into the
little city, by automobile, wugon,
train and on horseback, and some
even came afoot
AT ten o'clock the parade started.
There were fully 200 people men
and women-who rode horseback
in this parade, followed by deco
rated automobiles and carriages.
Some of the decorations we're very
fine, but the one that received the
most applause was that of the
Gunnison County Women's Good
Roads club, which showed the con-
trast between the present and the
past, or before and after, the orga-
nization of the club. Before-was
a representation of where man
had started with his automobile
for drive. The car had broken
down and it was necessary to be
hauled in by a team of horses.
Some women had come along driv-
ing a team to a wagon. The team
had been attached to the automo-
bile and the wagon hitched behind,
and thus they came to town. After
showed an automobile which had
no such trouble.
1t is fact that there is a Gun
nison County Women's G ood
Roads Club, and the roads are
Good.
On the north end of the main
street of Gunnison, grand-stands
had been erected, and here the
horse races, foot races, COW pony
races, relay races and bucking con-
test were pulled off. This WAS
free for all and no admission was
charged.
Three men qualified in the buck
ing contest, viz: Pete Bruins of the
San Luis Valley, Date Scott of
Pitkin and Dick Vader of Gunni-
son. The horses were large and
active and it took two days to de-
eide who was the winner. Scott
won first, Bruins, second and Vader
third.
Perhaps the most comical race
was one known as a Costume race.
In this there were clothes done up
in packages, and the men were to
ride IA mile, stop, unite the pack
age, put on whatever was in the
package, and return to the starting
point. 1t seems that most of the
packages contained women's wear
ing apparel and a cowboy who had
been used to high heel boots and
leather "chaps, cut quite swath
in trying to put on Mother hub
bards etc.
If you want to enjoy yourself go
to Gunnison, when the cattlemen
celebrate, and you will come back
very enthusiastic over the good
time which is to be enjoyed in the
COW mans country.

The first steps looking to
the building Of hard surface

f6efore6he' Police Jury and
requested that body to appoint
a cohaplittee from the mem
bers Of the Police Jury to act
with a committee Of the Pro
gressive League in the matter
of building permanent roads
in this parish.
The police Jury readily a.
greed to the request and APP
pointed the following strong

ter with the committee from
the Progressive League: Al

composed of the following:
Emile Sundbery, president Of
the League, Clarence G. Bar
ton, Chairman of the Good
roads &C mmittee of the league
and r. G.. Martin a member
Of Good Roads Committee OF
the league.
The first thing that this
committee will do, will be to
ascertsh the kind of material
that will be the most suitable
to this soil and the probable
cost of building these high
ways.
The United States govern,
ment is sending out its good
roads experts to all parts OF
the Union, and during the
past week a good Roads car
! visited all towns along the
Frisco Railroad. The commit
toe is now making efforts tc

To tt e People of Louis
lana:
Reduced Fire Hazard

At this season of the year,
nature is about to put on her
most beautiful garb. The
people generally realize the
necessity Of putting their
premises in order.
This cleaning should ex-
tend from cellar to garnet !
from house to outbuildings,E
alleys and yard A flying
spark lodging, a lighted match
or live cigar or cigarette stub
thrown carelessly into rub
Dish in, or outside Of build
ings has caused many disas-
ferrous fires. The chore boy /
may carelessly throw a scigarI
or cigarette stub into rubbish
surrounding barns or ini
barns; the clerk may throw
into either the rubbish of the
basement of business blocks
where paper, excelsior and
other packing materials are|
often allowed to accumulate.
Perhaps we cannot prevent
the people from carelessly
throwing matches or cigars or
cigarettes, bnt we can prevent
| the accumulation Of combus-
tible and inhammable mate
rails, if we will.
In this cleaning Of premises,
the attics should not be for
gotten. In them dust and
spider webs accumulate ane
all sorts Of inhammible stuff
lis stored away. Attics are
too often without ventilation.
Thus, when the fierce summer
sun beats upon the roof, the
attic becomes a veritable fur
mace and spontaneous COM
lbustion occurs in the rubbish
Idust, oily rags, highly var
nished pieces of furniture, etc.
j The painting season is near

1.-THE handling and storing OF
I rags used in wiping vanished

] from the painters hand is
timely. The only safe place
for such greasy rags is in the
Istove. If kept for any length
