PEARCE RESTS
HOPES ON HIS
STATE RECORD

THE STATE GOVERNMENT Is
BUSINESS AND NOT POLITICS and
the various departments should he
commerciali2ed and operated along
the same line. with the same prln-
clples as any large business inBtitu-
tion.
Secretary of State James B.
Pearce Is running for reelection on
his past record wherein this theory
has been carried extensively into
the operation OF the department of.
secretary OF state for the last az
years.
While II Is impossible to give but
n few details of the results, we will
mention some of them: Increasing
the receipts of the Office S3.259.7G
per month over the same period pri-
or to his taking charge, during a
time OF general business stagnation:
collecting SCI SABA DELINQUENT Fat
taxes which had not been entered on
the fiat tax books and which had
been overlooked by his predecessors;
the collection OF $4,000 last Febru-
ary by reason of having an amend
ment passed by the eighteenth gem
eral assembly making II 4 penalty
ON corporations, of 81 900 for failure
100000 OF the states money In
the publication OF initiated, referred
bills and constitutional amendments
by giving them only to weekly pa
pers for four issues, whereas before
II has been the practice to give them
to about Ia dailies, 30 issues each,
and TO As weeklles and seml-weeklles
3 and 10 issues each.
The following legislation was
passed by the general assembly on
n recommendation of the secretary of
state: revision of the iiat tax law; re-
vision of the corporation annual re-
Port law. an amendment to the for
eign corporation Ming fee law; an
enactment of the defuuct and mori-
bund corporation law; an amendment
to the factory inspection law. doing
away with fees for inspection, an
enactment to the statute relatlvo to
private employment agencies, giving
the control to the labor department,
requiring them to pay licenses. the
result of which has been to protect
WorkinSmen from the abuses COM.
mon prior to passage of the act.
There has been SO many important
laws to carry out incSRsinE the
work of the Office of sec<etary of
state that Mr.. Pearce finds it will bo
impossible to spend much time out
or Denver during this campaign and
desires his friends throughout the
state 10 assist him.
