the Boyd Lake Reservoir and Irriga-

B. ID. Sanborn of Greeley is largely
interested, becomes the owner OF

ance, the first beginning at 7:45

put in vaudeville and possibly
stock company some time during

you of the suit ii. Il. Badger, your
self, las. G.. Graham, and others
filed against the county commission

bridge across the Poudre cutoff

ing defeat. by these methods they

signs the emOllments OF the County
offices thereuntO appertaining or be-
longing.

self in that office, having previously,
for q long term OF years, held a
deputyship in one of the other oOun-
ty offices; the present county treas
urer likewise; an asPrant for the
clerk Of the District court, and menu
bers Of Ills family, are likewise
county pensioners; deputy seeks
the office Of county clerk; and even
former county treasurer now
wants to re-enter the ring az cOun-
ty commissioner.
1t is just this sort Of a system that
is today causing the unrest and bit
terness all over this United States.
1t was this system, beginning locally
in each community. that caused the
stolen nomination in Chicago. This
ring system exists, in ever widening
circles, throughout the entire ma
tiOn, and affects every department
of the government, from the post
office to the federal judgeships. Is
1t any wonder then that the people
have finally broken away from this
ring and are now found in the ranks
Of the Progressive party?
