Dry DELL S. COBB.l

Denver, Jan. 17.-If the wishes
and desires of n majority of the citi-
zens living in THE Arkansas valley
are gratified, the next governor of
Colorado will be John Vail. a popu-
lar resident of Pueblo, and who is
considered one of the best business
men in southern Colorado. At the
recent opening of the milk canning
plant at Lamar many of the promi-
ent residents from all sections of the
Aarkansas valley inaugurated a
boom for Mr.. Vail. In fact, he is be-
ing talked about for governor in
Denver. just at this time.
Colorado wants a busines man for
governor. Such man Is MIR. Vail.
He has made unqualified successes
of several of the largest enterprises
in the southern part of the state,
which is an indication that he has
the knowledge that would enable him
to steer the ship of state as it should
be directed.
Up to recently Mr.. Vail owned and
controlled several street car lines,
electric light and gas plants, besides
many other large enterprises which
required an immense amount of mon
ey besides the executive ability to di-
rect them successfully. He has both
and the people of the Arkansas val
ley realize the fact and are urging
him to make the race.
1t is understood here that Gov
ernor Ammons will not care to stand
for reelection. In fact, he has re-
peatedly so declared. However, in
the last few weeks n rumor has
been going the political rounds that
he expects to make the race for re-
election. Thus far Governor Am
mons has not affirmed nor denied the
latest report.

Crowley hus- lust returned "arom a
buying trip in Carbondale. Rifle and
the other famous potato countries in
that section. Our firm at the pres
ent time is shipping out from 10 to
20 cars of potatoes week to the
east. We are averaging fine prices
for our spuds. at the present time
netting the grower from 75c to soc
n hundred. Earlier in the fall we
did much greater business and av-
eragcd better prices, but for this
time of year the growers should be
