gressive candidates for County Offices in

we the following candidates of the three
political parties, whose names appear
below, to be voted for at the coming

it means to our people to have an cleo
ton at which there are no corrupting
influences used, and also realizing the
growth of public sentiment along this

in q government Of the people, the
unpurchased majority must rule, we
the undersigned do most solemly pledge
to the people of Garrard County and
among ourselves that we are unslterbly

9Th. inst. to which they are pledged, we
express our great disappointment or
account Of the fact that this appeal ha,
been utterly ignored by all Of the can
didates Of the other parties.
BY theif failure to come forward and
agree to stand for clean elections

Used, they proclaim to the people Of
Garrard County. that they are in favor
Of present conditions now existing
within our borders. which oil goot
people regardless Of past party affilia
lions must deeply deplore.
We are standing. In this elections
not alone for the Offices, to which We
aspire, for il that had have been oul
only motive, we should never have
been before you at this time, but We
are standing for principles. which ever
our opponents must acknowledge arr
just and right
We again express our deepest regre
at the stand taken by those gentlemen
who are asking the good people Of thi
county to elect them to fill the variou
offices for the next four years. w,
had q right to have expected bette
things from our opponents, when tn
very foundations Of this Government
today are being undermined BY jus
such conditions as exist in this County
| We, therefore appeal to the people o
IGarrard County, to show on which sid
they stand; whether they are in fsvo
Of conditisns as they now exist, o
whether they are in favor of condition
for which the Progressive party i

IMPROVEMENTS At
HIGH SCHOOL BUILDING

The board Of education has decided
to make some improvements and al
terations at the high school building
to meet the demands resulting from a
constantly increasing enrolment OF
students there. A large room and
labratory for the science department
will be created on the third floor OF
the building and other changes in the
interior OF the structure made. A
stairway will have to be built as the
third floor has not hitherto been used
for school purposes. The contract for
the work was awarded last week 10
j. A. Heckart & Son and they are
now engaged in carrying out its pro-
visions. The cost OF the improve
ments will be between eight and nine
hundred dollars.

WORK DISCONTINUED

Work on the cutoff road that was
SO mysteriously started some time ago
has been discontinued. says the Pea

are some In Canon City. and Com
missioner Chapson included, who are
very desirous that this road be COM
pleted and in fact. insist that it De
done.
In this there is to be shown utter
disregard for the eastern portion Of
the county and It is plain to be seen
at this time that If these people VINO
insist on putting this work through
for the purpose Of attracting the tras-
el from the official route. thus cutting
of Beaver Park. Penrose and Flor
ence. the awakening in this end Of
the county will be surprising to many.

HILLSIDE GETS GOOD RAIN

In the course of a letter received
Tuesday afternoon from Rev. S. II.
Sperry. who is assisting In a series
of religious meetings at Hillside. he
says:
after several days of threatening
weather a splendid rain fell through
out the Wet Mountain valley last
Saturday afternoon and night. and
continued at intervals for more than
forty-eight hours. Two and a half or
three inches OF water fell and II wet
the earth to a depth of several inches.
It was a great blessing as the ground
had become hard and dry and needed
moisture. Grain In some localities
was suffering from the drouth and
water for irrigation was getting
scarce under some OF the ditch rights.
The recent rain practically assures \
bountiful harvest Of hay and grain n
this portion of the valley"
