am reliably informed that there
will appear in the two other county
papers an article in the interest Of
Chris Jensen for county commissioner
with names signed proclaiming to be
his neighbors, saying he is all right
Now, voters in other parts of the
county, don't be fooled by signers as
to q neighbor's honesty, for if your
neighbor asked you to sign state
ment that he is honest, not many
neighbors would refuse to sign it, al
though they did not believe it.
These signers MAY BE HIS NEIGH
BORIS, although they have waited un-
til the last issue of the paper before
the primaries, knowing that there
would be no way to refute it before
the primaries. He has refused to
answer any questions in previous Is
sues and now he comes out knowing
full WE'LL that there will he no more
issues of any OF the papers before the
primaries are held, consequently no
chance to answer him. don't believe
the tax payers will endorse any such
underhanded methods as this, He has
had the free use of two of the county
newspapers at his disposal at all
times and has not availed himself of
them until the last issue before the
primaries, knowing full we'll that the
voters would have no chance to inves-
tigate what he has to say about him
self.
You have not seen anything in eth
er of the two papers that are getting
so we'll paid for the county printing,
about what a good commissioner Jen-
sen has made. If his record has been
so clean, why Is it that his two county
paid newspapers have not defended
him before the last issue before the
primaries are held. If the county
printing was a square deal, why
haven't they defended it and showed
the people that the money they are re-
ceiving for the county printing is not
too much, and tell why they did not
both bid on the printing instead of
forming combine, submitting one
bid and agreeing to divide it.

There Is NO law compelling Mr.. Red
mon to turn the interest received from
the county money over to the county.
He could keep it himself, or do as has
been done prior to Mr.. Redmon's in
duction in Office, give it to the Chey-
enne County State Bank. But Mr..
Redmon, with a sense of honesty and
right that has broken every tradition
in Cheyenne county Office holding, be-
lieves the county money belongs to the
people and that they should have the
benefit Of its earnings. II would be
extremely ungrateful in the people of
Cheyenne county to turn down the on
ly man in the county who seems to
be working for the interests of all the
people instead of for selfish gains and

County Treasurer, w. E. Red

protested that political conven-

delegates have nominated candi-
dates for Office who have many
times been Indifferent or mimi
cal to their best interests. This
year every farmer in the state
has the opportunity to assist in
the selection of candidates for
his party. If he does not avail
himself of his right and go to
the primary next Tuesday, he
will deserve whatever treatment
he gets.

To the Voters of Cheyenne
County.

To the Voters of Cheyenne
County.
I understand that some of the
county newspapers in this weeks
issue are going to tell the people
why they are for the re-nomina-
ton of the two present members
Of the board of county commits
sioners, and why l am against
their denomination and why the
people should be for them.
If they tell the truth, they will
have no trouble in telling why
they are for them-that $3.50
each that the commissioners 80
generously gave them explains
why they are for their re-nomi-
nation, and some of the reasons
why / am against them. Why
the people should want to re-
nominate them is something /
can't understand. It surely can't
be on their past record. for if
they should be re-nominated,
they will be asked some things
that they will have to answer be-
fore the general election that will
be very embarrassing. have
too much faith in the honesty
and intelligence of the people to
believe they will ever nominate
them. Up to the present time
they have never answered my
enquiry as to whether they had
ever allowed any bills for railroad
fare when they knew the riding
had been done on free transport
tation furnished by the railroad
company, although l stated that
their silence on this matter would
be considered as proof that they
had allowed such bills.
Voters, don't be fooled by
what the newspapers have to say
about the denomination of the
two members. for they have an
object and have been we'll paid
foc their trouble and realize that
if they are defeated that they
will not receive such a generous
donation again. I am not blam-
ing the two papers for accepting
$17O0 if the commissioners were
foolish enough to give it to them.
l only give this as a reason why
they might ask for their re-nom-
ination.
There is no doubt but what Mr..
Stapleton will beat Jenson two
to one in their own precinct
where they are both known.
That should be a sufficient reason
why people in other parts of the
county should support Mr.. Sta
pleton, for a mans neighbors
know him best.
In the east end of the county
where J. M. Kennard Candidate
for county commissioner Of the
3rd district) lives, he is well
liked by all who know him, and
his neighbors tell me, a better
man never lived, and there is no
doubt but what he will have a
very large majority in his own
precinct. So if his home people
think that way of him., voters in
other parts of the county will be
taking no chances in supporting
Mr.. Kennard.

I In the stock market. today, when here
, tofore leading interests connected with
the bull side. switched over 20 the
bear side, and aided raid that sent
the entire stock list crlmblng down
TO new low levels for recent months.
Rumors of the collapse OF various

tain leading interests filed the air,
and the tone OF the entire market was
demoraliZed. There was recovery
OF point and fractions. around noon.
The market opened weak. and for a
short time, there was a pretense OF
support from the bull leaders. For
the first hour this support had mild
~ reassuring effect on the list, but
then the bears gained the upper hand,
and started pounding everything down.
The open support switched over, and
for nearly another hour, the democrat
ization held full sway. Thousands OF
shares OF long stock we're uncovered
as margin points were passed. The

There was mixed up with the sell

reputation OF pulling out bargains.
This group seemed TO be partial to the
standard shares, such as Reading,

One thing which caused trouble was
the attitude OF the banks in discrim-
