COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.
Are the Commissioners of our
County Elected to serve the
people or to RULE them?

In keeping Win the 1OrllleT
practice of our County Commis-
sioners, to rob the people, the
county printing was awarded to
one w. E. Cain, of the Cheyenne
Wells Republican, who made, in
violation of the law. combina-
ton bid with the Wild Horse
Times, instead Of a competitive
bid which the law directs shall
be made, for $500 when the Eas-
tern Colorado Times bid for the
same work was $500. A legal
and legitimate bid. On January
10th the bids for the letting of the
county printing was taken up by
the board Of County Commission
ers, composed Of Chris Jensen,
Charles Dagger and Geo. Jen-
nings, and that board, who sand
bagged the taxpayers last year
for over $1,000 for the county
printing, wanted to award the
printing for 1918, three days be-
fore the board elected by the
people to make such a contract,
was sworn into Office.
This is the same kind of high
handed work that has been car
ried on for twenty years, and the
fact that the people are robbed
again this year, by officers, who
were elected to serve the people,
is not out Of line with their for
mer practices. It can be said
however, to the credit of Chas.
Dagger, that he raised his OBJ
lection to any action the old
board of commissioners might
take in awarding the printing
contract at time.
In January 1912 the impunity
indulged officers Of Cheyenne
county taxpayers did not know
that the Eastern Colorado Times
was going to be put in motion,
and having nothing to fear, from
a people who were unable to as
sert their rights, they entered
into an agreement with the
Cheyenne Republican and the
Wild Horse Times, two mongrel
sheets, that hav'nt got manhood
enough to disclose their politics,
and express their political prin-
ciples" to subsidize them for
whatever purpose they might be
called on to serve, with the un-
derstanding, that their pay would
be filched from the people,
through the very graceful cour-
tesy of the high county commits
sioners.
If there ever was a time when
the recall ought to be applied to
a public servant, it is certainly
now, when the county commits
sioners have of their own motion,
and directly in conflict with the
interest of the people they were
elected to serve, put their hands
in the pockets of the taxpayers,
and pay $500 for printing they
could have bought for $500.
Taxpayers, do you think you are
honestly represented. Do you
think you are being served, or
ruled.
Do you believe the men in the
Office OF your county Commission
els are honest or dishonest?
Let US take for example, the
proposition, if your county COM
missioners had to pay for the
county printing out of their own
pockets; which bid would they
have accepted. Do you think
they would pay $500 for work

THE LUCK OF TAFT,

William H. Taft is a genuine philos.
opher. We had often suspected this,
but his address to the newspaper men
in Washington, on the eve of his de.
parture from the capital, removed m
doubt we may have had, says the St..
Louis Globe,Democrat. As a rule.
lucky men are not philosophical.
They take the good things chance
throws in their way, accrediting
them, by some strange mental process,
to their own initiative and judgment,
while d%ecrying the theory Of luck as
a mere superstition. That Mr.. Tat
has been luck is not to be denied.
All his life he has been a contradic.
ton Of the truth of the claim that
nobody loves a fat man" He has,
as he told the scribes, almos: always
got everything he asked for, and the
record shows that he has never been
backward in the asking. He has held
office almost all of the time since at.
tanning his majority. In that he is
like. Col. Roosevelt, who also began
early, and who was as lucky as Nv.
Taft. Luck changed for both OF them
at the same time. and 10. the same

THE SPRING SESSION.

Let the country rejoice that it is to
have congress on its hands in the
spring.
Take our foreign affairs. We are,
and NAV be for some months to come.
nervous about Mexico. says the Wash
ington Star. We are responsible for
order in CUBA, and disorder may
grow out of the approaching change
of administration there. Unrest IS
showing in certain sections OF Cen
trail and South America, and should
it take a turbulent form our interests
there may require some action on our
part.
Take our domestic affairs. Business
is nervous about the incoming adj
ministration. 1t will be Differed by
men either new to executive duties.
Or new to the public notice. They
will have their hands full at once of
matters Of the highest Importance.
A very great deal will depend OF how
the ball is set rolling.
But with congress in session, com
plications, if they arise, can be adj
justed with the assistance of that
body. If congressional action is i'm
portant in any case, it can be had
without delay. The president will
have only to submit the matter by
massage, and what is necessary cal
b. voted in short order.
Congress, also, it is true, will show
new men, and many Of them. Such a
campaign as was waged last year,
with one of the old parties in a state
OF disorganization, was bound to re.
tire many experienced legislators in
favor Of opponents who ordinarily
would not have had a chance of sue.
cess.
But the majority party in both
houses will be led by men Of expert.
ence; and that should count heavily
in the equation. In the lower house
particularly the presence of Mr.. Clark
MI. Underwood, Mr.. Clayton and 9th.
ers, should help steady the general
situation as congress may be called
upon to notice it.
The length of the session will be
determined by developments. Inter-
I, yentiOn in Cuba might make it advis-
able for congress to tarry awhile on
! that account. Some sharp business
disturbances growing out of the shap-
ing of new tariff, or trust, or currency
measures might make it advisable for
congress in some way to deal with
them.
But, in any case, we are to have
congress in session soon after the is
suance of the country's latest man
date as to legislatio, and with power
to deal with all questions affecting
the public welfare. And there is in
the fact much for the country to be
thankful for.

A travelling mar from here returning

these occurred at Medicine Lake in
which a man named Hanson, former
" living at Velva, N. D., was badly
stabbed and is not expected to recover
from the effects Of wounds received
in the encounter. Newspapers pub

each others bets.
Now this is an offense against the
laws of luck which the gods of chance
will hardly ever overlook. Where
Mr.. Taft's fine philosophy shines the
! brightest is in his candid recognition
of the run of luck in his life. This
is genuine Americanism at it's best,
because, after a century of popular
education in a republic where all men
stand on an equal footing before the
law, and where every decade brings
to the front new men of brains, am
'bition and equipment, something
more than a claimed superiority is
needed to keep any man in public
office for almost a generation. A maj
SO lucky, who arrogates to himself
a superior merit and grows to htink
himself Indispensable to the country,
not only lacks Mr.. Taft's philosophy,
but he will feel the need of it most
| when he finds himself undeceived and
without such a our to fall back
upon. Mr.. Taft, setting his bad luck
Of last year against the long run Of
good luck which preceded it, finds
himself so much to, the good that what
he now fears most is a change Of luck
in the future, by way of equalization.
A man with the philosophy watch
the ruin Of his luck so closely has in
HIM the fear of the Lord, which is
the Sublimation of wisdom, and,
though he may have his UPS aid
downs, the world shall not see him
forsaken nor his seed begging bread.
Even a finer philosophy is shown
in his anticipation Of the pleasure he
is to get out of being in a position to
criticise the administration. He is
coming back to Washington occasion
ally, he told the correspondents, to
see the wheels 90 around. II expect
to come back here and sit down with
you again." he said, "and talk with
you about some others in Office, with
a certain sort Of sympathetic salts
faction" "a certain sort" AS Ger
tain as the tides. AS certain as the
laws OF luck themselves. There is
nothing at all uncertain about it.
There will be need of the sympathy
of q man who knows how it feels him
self. There are some bad places in
the road ahead, and we believe this
lucky philosopher actually thinks him
self lucky to have been defeated last
year. And, by all the gods of chance,
he may be right about it.
