COLORADO STOCKGROWERS'
ASSOCIATION BULLETIN

The attention of members is called
to house bill 2l9, which was passed
by the legislature and has been re-
ferred to the voters at the coming
election for their approval. This act
transfers the brand records of the
state from the office of the secretary
of state to the stock inspection board,
where they rightfully belong. For
several years this association has been
struggling to have these records
placed where proper attention can be
given them by those familiar with
stock brands and their uses. Under
the control of the secretary of state,
they are in the hands Of clerks ap-
pointed for political reason and who
have little or no knowledge of stock
brands and how they may be mis-
used In the control of the stock in
spection board they will be always un-
det the direction of those familiar
with stock brands and able to give
them proper attention.
intoc ItNOIuS dIt tIlc eNf-
dences of title to many thousands Of
cattle in Colorado and of the great
est Importance to the stock interests.
No other class Of citizens has any
particular interest in them. The bill
became law and was referred
through a mistaken idea that the pat
ronage of the office of the secretary
of state would be damaged. 1t is Of
the greatest necessity therefore that
the members of this association give
particular attention to this act at the
coming election. Each local associa-
tion member is urged to take steps
to have some stockman at each of
the polling places to not only urge
members, but others as well, IN the
interest of fairness and justice TO vote
in FAVOR Of this measure.
Another bill which has been referred
to be voted upon at the coming cleo
tion is known as senate bill No. 459
This act was passed under the protest
of the stock interests and of many of
the state institutions. 1t was intend
ed to place all Of the private funds of
various institutions in the hands of
the state treasurer, and would have
the effect of placing the estray fund
and the stock inspection fund, both
of which belong to the stockmen Of
the state, in the hands of the state
treasurer. Under this act the stock
men would lose the interest money
from their funds and they would be
tied up SO that payments from them
could only be made by consent Of the
state auditor, with the usual red tape
that would greatly delay payments
for estrays. The effect Of this bill
would be to concentrate many state
funds, now held in country banks, in
the Denver banks. Members are
urged to work AGAINST this meas
ure, and not only vote AGAINST II
themselves, but urge other also to do
| so.
Local associations are urged to take
these bills up for consideration at
special meetings called for the pur-
pose or through their executive COM
mittees to secure organized action at
the polls on Nov. 8.

TO DEFEAT TUN
MEL BILL.

The organization for the defeat Of
the Moffat tunnel bill still continues.
Over in the San Luis valley the COM
mercial bodies are uniting in their
efforts to defeat the bill pushed upon
the people by the Denver machine.
When La Plata county or any other
county in a remote part of the state
wants help on its roads, bridges or
other public improvements you may
depend upon it that our members in
the Legislature have TO sacrifice every
thing to get the assistance of the
Denver vote. Their motto is every
thing for Denver and nothing for the
outside counties.
Naturally large city like Den
yer asks for a great deal and gets it
usually, but there comes time when
the people not directly connected with
the capital city should consider that
it should no longer be considered an
object of charity. They ask for too
much charity. The residents Of Colo
RADIO are proud Of Denver as the larg-
est city, but they cannot afford "a
contribute both directly and indirectly
and continually to the upbuilding OF
Denver when so much is needed to
build local industries in all parts Of
the state.
It is almost certain that If all the
voters Of the state who go to the
polls on election day vote on the tun.
mel bill it will be defeated by ar
overwhelming vote. Vote "NO" or
this measure.

REGISTRATION LARGE IN STATE

Reports from every county in the
state show a decided increase in the
registration over four years ago and
it may be concluded that Colorado
will poll this year the largest vote in
the states history
The registration does not give any
definite idea Of the number of votes
that may be cast on election day for
the reascn that the registration list
does not in any way represent the
number of voters in the state.
In many of the counties the regis
tration boards simply copy the names
of the preceding registration, carry
ing along from election to election
the names of men and women who
have been dead for years or those who
have lost their residence so far as
Colorado is concerned
1t is safe to say that the actual
voters of the state at any election will
not reach more than 60 or 10 per
cent Of the registration for the same
election.
While much of this extra registra-
ton may be for the purpose of Civ
ing every possible opportunity to vo-
ters too often it is the purpose to
carry those names not representing
voters for a fraudulent purpose. In
the large cities persons not entitled
to vote are voted on the names found
on the padded list. Much of this work
has been done in Denver and two or
three other counties.
