TO VOTE FOR FIVE
MEMBERS OF CONGRESS.

Voters of Colorado should remember
that at the November election they
will have the opportunity of voting
for five members of the next national
congress. This opportunity is not ac-
corded any other citizens of America.
Each Coloradoan can vote for two
United States Senators, two congress-
men at large and one congressman
for his own respective district.
Under such circumstances it GER
tainly behooves every voter to give
serious consideration to his vote and
to determine whether or not he desires
to continue policy of free trade as
against her industries.

DEMOCRATS AGAINST GOVERN
OR SHAFROTH.

From all over the state come re-
ports that Democrats are not going to
support Shafroth for the United
States senate for different reasons.
Shafroth has been q disappoint-
ment to his fellow Democrats both in
the general character of his admin
istration and as to the manner in
which he made his appointments.
The administration has been most
miserable failure from a financial
point of view, but it is perhaps the
appointments he made during the four
years that he has been in office that
has caused him the most trouble in
his party. Shafroth would not allow
the party workers to suggest any
nominee to him nor would he appoint
those who worked the hardest to elect
him governor.
In every part of the state Demo-
Gratis are more or less openly OPP
posed to his election to the senate and
word comes to this office that in a
few sections of the state the oppo-
sition to him has assumed the pro-
portions of bolt.
Inasmuch as he has running against
him very strong man, Clyde G.
Dawson, it is not likely that he will
make much headway in his campaign
before the people. There is no pos
sible way of lodging the record he
has made and there is no way of ex-
planning to his Democratic opponents
his opposition to them in making his
appointments.

The Burden of Ace.

I know of little better worth remem-
bering as we grow old than what
pleased US while We were young. with
the memory Of the kind words once
spoken come back the still kinder looks
of those who spoke them; and. better
than all. that early feeling Of budding
manhood. when there was neither fear
no distrpst. Alas. these are the things,
and not weak eyes and lettering limbs,
which form the burden of old age. oh.
if we could only go on believing. go on
trusting so on hoping to the last, who
would shed tears for the bygone feats
of his youthful days. when the spirit
that evoked them lived young and vivid
as before?-Charies Leyes.

ADVENTURE WITH A GHOST.

Dear Little Men and Little Women: A
girl friend OF mine wanted me 10 go to her
aunts 10 spend the day. My mother con-
scnted. and we sadded our horses and
started early, In order to have long days
visit.
II was about three miles and we arrived
at S:45 a. m. We found Mrs Brown stand
ing at the door, ready to greet us, with a
package I'm each hand. The one In her
right hand she gave TO Bessie and the
other to me. I hastily opened mine and
found a pasteboard box. and so did Bessie.
Mrs. Brown told US IL We opened the boxes
something would happen. This aroused
our curiosity. and as soon as she left the
room we opened them and out jumped two
paper mice In our faces. Al this we
screamed so loudly that she came running
in. When she found what had happened
she laughed until she smelt her bread
burning When dinner was ready We sat
down TO a table OF goodies ana ate uhtll we
wanted no more. ,, -,
After dinner was over We pIayed gaInes
until late in the afternoon. Mrs. Browh
, then took US 10 an apple. pesch ana pear
orchard and there we stayed until dusk,
then we saddled our horses and started Tor
home. After we had gone miie IL pesaL 1orit
in the road we did not know which way 70
go. Bessie decided that the roa1 70 ts tnss
right was the one that led home. We had
gone but mile when. the moon being

we were on the right road, Tor han

Dear Little Men and Little Women: ]
want to tell you about the playhouse which
father and my brothers built I'm our gar
den the summer before last. We named 1T
the Dew Drop Inn. The Dew Drop Inn
will hold as many as ten children at once.
II has three large windows and one door.
One OF the windows looks hight into our
vegetable garden, and in the summer when
the corn is up the view Is very pretty from
that window.
The little house Is all shingled from top
TO bottom. The walls inside are papered
with a heavy rose colored wrapping paper
There is brown HnoleJm on the hoor. IN
winter the Dew Drop Inn Is heated with an
oil heater. We also have small oil
cook stove The furniture is made OF old
! boxes There is a table, three chairs,
window seat, a bookcase dish rack and
a footstool.
| One Saturday last winter Ella and Susie
| and | took our pals of warm water, ous
scrub brushes and our soap and went out
| to our playhouse. We first scrubbed the
| floor and cleaned the walls. Then we
tackled up pictures and we busted the fur
niture. we each made a pair Of curtains
|
! then hung up our curtains. and started TO
/ 20 home as IL was getting dark OUTSIDE,
when Ella said: "Oh. | wish we all could
| have tea out here tomorrow; let's tease
! our mothers to let us come and each one
| bring their own materials. We Will cook
everything right here" We all liked the
| idea and our mothers all consented. what
