stand for Costigan, Ben Lindsey or

and be in decent company" Bully
for Agnes!--Boulder Camera.

Uppie Sinclair to it. Ben writes
books to you know-such as they
are.-Pueblo Chieftain.
State Auditor Affolter is worthy Of
being ridden out of the country on 8
rail. The Herald does not urge such
procedure, 1t is only telling what At
folter had earned, but if any one
should give him such ride no one
connected with this office would in
terfere.-Boulder Herald.
The Man that ran newspaper that
pleased everybody didn't stay long on
this earth. Heaven was his home,
anyhow.-Craig Empire.
So long as its chief organs, the
Denver News and Times, continue to
carry monster whisky and beer ad-
vertisements, the Progressive party's
flirtations with the Prohibitionists
won't result in matrimony in Colo.
rado.-Colorado Springs Democrat.
Have you, as yet, heard one single
word from any member of Colorado's
delegation in congress, rebuking Jack
Tierney, Ben Lindsey, George Creel
Alma Lafferty and others of that
stripe for the lies they have told,
for the malice they have shown, for
the damage they have done ?-Pue-
bio Chieftain.
About forty-seven politicians III
Colorado want to be successor to Am
mons, but there aren't half dozen
in the bunch who could do any bet
ter. Possibly not one among the
many who are offering to come to
the rescue could do as well. They
are not made of the kind of stuff that
Colorado needs in the executive chair
just now.-Pueblo Indicator.

yer & Rio Grande railroad to refund
S3,433.27 of excess freight charges re-

Moose party and the poor brute would
make noise like one sob in n scpul-
chre.-Alamosa Courier.

About 900 citizens of Canon City
met on Friday evening last and
adopted strong resolutions on the
strike situation. They denounced
self-serving politicians, irresponsible
fanatics. hysterical women and vel
low newspapers who have maligned
the governor and viliti.d the nation
al guard. They also condemned the
statements of Judge Ben Lindsey
The matter has come directly home
to the people of Canon City by the
conflict Of the Chandler mine in their
vicinity. It is quite evident that tbt
people of Colorado are very much
wrought up over the injury which
has been done to the business and to
the good name of this state by the
coal miners strike and the subsequent
lawless nets which have followed and
they are in no mood to stand rene
tition Of such acts. They viii insist
that every man be permitted to run
his property without being shot nt or
burned up, and they will insist uron
having peace il they have to fight for
it.-Colorado Springs Telegraph.
