of years. The waters OF the state are
for the good of the people and how
best to conserve them for the users
has been his aim and study.
During the earlier years in Colorado
when anarchy threatened the common
wealth. Judge Campbell on the bench
was the guiding genius and balance
wheel: and although his course was
not approved by the enemies of the
state and was criticised severely by
the opposition. from a purely partisan
point of view, however, his findings
have not been interefered with by
court that is supposed to be politically
hostile to him and his judgments.
John Campbell, soon after his grad
uation went to Colorado Springs and
took up the practice of law. He was in
partnership with Joseph Helm He
served in the state legislature and he
was instrumental in passing several
important laws. He was particularly
interested in the measure known as a
scientific temperance law, requiring
the subjects of physiology and hygiene
to be taught in public schools.
At the close of his term on the dis
trfct bench he was elected to the su-
preme court in 1894 and nine years.
later was reelected by Republicans and
Independents, who recognized his
worth and his record as just and
fearless Judge.
This year the Colorado Bar associa-
ton, in recognition Of his ability as a
lawyer and standing as citizen. gave
him the non-partisan Endorsement for
the supreme court

THE MAN FOR CONGRESS
FROM THE STERLING NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

In Charles B. Timberlake, candidate
for congress on.the Republican ticket
for the second congressional district,
the people of Northern and Eastern
Colorado have a man who in preem-
inently fitted to represent them in the
great 4 AMerican law making body. In
the years that haye passed this sec
tion of the state has been deplorably
neglected AS rule the man repre-
senting us, or supposed to represent
us, has had his interests turned in
other directions, much to our detri-
ment
We have an opportunity at this time
to change the conditions that have
prevailed for so long and to do some
thinr for our own good Will we arise
to tie opportunity? 1t remains to be
seen, but surely the logical minded
voters of the second district must
behold in Mr. Timberlake a man
worthy of their confidence He is near
the reople; he knows their needs per-
haps as no other man who might be
selected for congress.
In his home county, he has been n
factor in progress at all times From
the very beginning of industrial de
yclopment in this and Phillips county
he has lent his energies to the work
that has brought the prarie lands
from the primitive to what they are
today AS our congressman, he will
continue the work for our benefit
with greater success than he has in
the past.
Just now there are many vital prob
lens concerning the welfare of North
eastern Colorado which should be
taken up in the national congress, but

better safeguard the interests of the
state.
Establishing himself in Pueblo in
1892 lie soon became recognized far
and wide as an expert and authority
on nervous diseases and instituted the
Work Sanitarium. He has been presi-
dent Of the Colorado medical associa-
ton, member of the state board of
health, but above all, Dr. Work has
been a citizen, cherisEing lofty ideals
of government and citizenship and
now after receiving testimonial of
support by the large vote at the pri
mary election, pledges himself to work
for Colorado when he takes his seat
in the great deliberative body.
Dr. Work has never been counted a
politician. He has never sought public
office. He served as state chairman of
the Republican party. In seeking office
now he does not do SO to crafty am
! bition. He has become candidate be-
cause It has become imperative that
Colorado be represented and not mis-
represented in the senate and because
from all parts of the state there was
demand for man who is qualified
to perform the important service which
DR.. Work will surely perform.
His opponent is the present incum-
bent, Charles S. Thomas. DIR. Work
stands head and shoulders over Thom-
as in every comparing quality The
election of DR.. Work on November
will be victory not alone for the Re-
publican party, but for the people of
Colorado.
Las Animas county is going to do its
share to accomplish this result. Las
Animas county has stamped his can
tiidacy with a big o. X. of approval.
He is winner. 1t is merely a question
of counting the ballots to determine
his majority.

The Republicans of Colorado are SOL
id in their support of Dr. Hubert Work
of Pueblo, candidate for the United
States Senate. Not alone among Re
publicans does the candidacy of Mr..
Work appeal to and merit the APPROX
al of Republicans. but conservative
citizens who claim no affiliations with
the Republican party are for DIR. Work
because they believe that Dr. Work
represents the type of citizenship that
will best represent this great state in
the upper house of the national con-
gress.
Particularly are all good citizens
united upon DR.. Work, because Dr.
Work is one, eminent in his distinguish
ed profession, a foremost figure in ev-
cry movement to promote the indus
trial interests of Colorado a firm be-
lever in and stalwart champion of
the principles which are for the up
building Of the state on the broadest
scale, DR.. Work comes before the vo-
ters a man who can look back upon a
stainless record.
Dr. Work missed being born on the
Fourth Of July by few hours. Never
theless he is a Yankee Doodle boy
thoroughly saturated with the kind of
patriotism that enables him to present
himself to the people of Colorado with
out fear of severe criticism by his op-
ponents. In fact, though the campaign
is nearly gone, not one word of criti-
cism has been voiced by his opponent
or the campaign orators of the Demo-
cratic and Progressive parties.
Since 1885 DR.. Work has been resi-
dent of Colorado. He has been engag-
ed always in the practice of medicine
and has been identified largely, with
irrigation projects. He believes that
Colorado is the garden spot Of the unf-
verse and devoting years of his life
to careful study of Colorado's needs
may be depended upon to champion

Patterson, in his address. emphasiz-
ed o9ce more his antagonism toward
any and all business enterprises ex-
cept those in which he is a stockholder
himself. During his long and unhappy
career in this state, Mr.. Patterson has
always been ready to attack every pro-
perty owner or corporation or business

always fought fiercely in behalf of Pat

the people of Colorado who want to
see this state go forward and it's in

dily increased. will make a big mis-
take in voting for this venerable trou-

SPEAKS WELL OF MR.. MITTEN
From AKRON PIONEER PRESS

We take pleasure In calling the at
tention of the voters to the candidacy
of o. l.. Mitten. the Republican candi-
date for state senator from this dis
trict. He has made his home in Yuma
county for seventeen years. He has
business interests in four of the five
counties of this district
Add to this his wide acquaintance
in the district which runs into the
hundreds, and the fact that he is emil
nently fitted for the place he seeks,
and you have in Mr.. Mitten an ideal
candidate
In nine precincts where he has bus
mess interests and his business rela-
tions with the farmers direct, he car
ried every precinct at the primary
election in September This shows
plainly the high esteem in which he is
held by the people who know him as a

whom we may place the utmost faith
and who is imbued with a desire tc

will not be brought about.
That the people of the entire dis
trict have recognized in Mr.. Timber
lake man of eminent qualifications

was rendered him at the primary cleo
tiop, His ability is appreciated quite
as much in counties distant from us
as in Logan and Philips counties
where he has been known for the past
q years.
He is man OF superior attain

gress. He has a full, complete knowl-
edge Of the needs of this section. He
has lived close to the people and he
knows the conditions that must be
engendered in order TO guarantee
their prosperity and contentment He
knows that Northeastern Colorado is

cations to our people

Mr. Fisher moved with his par
ents to Sedgwicli County in 1884 and
has been & resident of the county ever
since, and has seen and helped in the
growth and development of the coun-
ty.
He is a self made man. Coming to q
new country with parents of limited
means it was necessary for him early
in life to master those things which
make him an ideal candidate for the
office Of County Commissioner He was
educated in our public schools and has
paid taxes in the county since he was
a mere boy. For n number OF years
he was financially interested in his
fathers Implement business but devot-
ed his work to other lines until the
failure of his fathers health, when he
and his brother formed the firm of
Fischer Borthers.
Mr.. Fischer has never asked for
public office until the school election
this spring when he was given a splen-
did majority vote for the Office of one
o fthe Directors of our Public Schools.

Candidate Patterson's appearance
In Colorado Springs on Saturday
night was not much Of success. eth
er from the standpoint Of numbers or
from the evident impression which he
made upon his audience. Probably 500
people would comprise the total num-
ber of persons present, and consid-
cradle number of these left before he
had concluded his remarks.
Mr.. Patterson's address was confined
mainly to two points: One of these
was his criticism of the Republican

titude on the Prohibitlsa question: this
was followed by Pstterson's arguments
In favor Of local option ss opposed to

all the cunning and sophistry of which
he was capable, that the coal mine
