= eff my ex-husband sees me with
any other man than one of his choice,
he will make trouble" said Miss
Neong-and trouble" in the Chinese
sense means tragedy.
Miss Neong is enthusiastic for the
success of the Chinese film drama,
not only because Of it's novelty, but
because she is ambitious to educate
and uplift the Chinese and believes
the picture show is the logical me-
dunn with which to accomplish this
end.
81 am looking forward" continued
Miss Neong, ''to the time when l will
be in position to act for the people
of China; that is my one great ambi-
ton"
AS she watches the rehearsals of
the plays, this dimunitive Oriental
star applauds and censures, speaking
in the mother tongue, to encourage
and improve the efforts of the actors.
The actress has individuality and a
charm and grace that is particularly
adapted to picture acting. She wears
her hair in the latest fashion and her
gowns are all of her own handiwork.
Miss Neong is a clever needleworker
and she frequently decorates her
dresses with exquisite Chinese en-
broidery.

New York.-They do say back in
Walkerville, Ia, that 'little Eleanor
Painter" was the life of the husking
bees round Walkerville - everybody
was glad when she got the red ear of
corn, and everybody was especially
happy when she sang.
People are still happy when Flea
nor Painter sings; they have been
paying good money to hear her sing
in Berlin and Munich, and now New
York is in great state of excitement
because Andreas DIPPED has brought
the little Iowa girl over from Berlin
to sing the prima donna role in his
new opera, Lilac Domino"

At the primary election it was
not uncommon for voters to. take
their ballots and mark a cross af-
ter the name of perhaps only one
candidate on the ticket. For in
stance, they would mark their bal
lot only for their choice for gov
ernor. This was manifestly I'M
fair to other candidates running
for less prominent positions of
trust, yet none the less important.
Every voter should take care to
go down the line and vote for
some candidate for every office,
from U. S. senatorship down to
precinct officers. Sufficient time
win be allowed all voters to do
this carefully. The best way to
do is to familiarize yourself with
the names of all Democratic can
didates, and it will then be an
easy matter to pick them out with
out reading the party designation.

will appear after each Democratic

There is a growing sentiment
against third.termers, and that
sentiment is going to assert it.
self in strongest rebuke this No.
vember to those candidates who
are asking for a third term.
Jerry Ferris. Democratic can
didate for assessor, away back
in '93 established a precedent
with regard to the perpetuation
of men in Office, when he stoutly
refused to accept a third term
for the Office of Assessor. He
had been elected by a large maj.
ority for the second term than
for the first, and he had every
reason to believe that he had a
.inch on the third term. But he
said he believed in giving some.
one else a chance" and he would
not accept it.
This became the slogan of both
parties from that time on, and
until this year the rule has been
observed.
The Republicans have a ticket
with a third-termer on it, and
others who have fed at the pub.
lie crib for years in one capacity
or another.
The Democrats have placed a
ticket in the field. made up of
candidates beyond criticism, in
every respect. They are clean,
straightforward. and well quail
fed for the Offices they seek.
They do not form a part of a
political machine.-are not corp
poration owned. and are in every
way worthy of your support.
You know what you have had.
and we are not criticising the in.
dividual acts of any official in the
Jefferson county court house,
but dear citizen do you feel that
as a whole you have had as good
conditions under Republican rule
as you were entitled to? There

might be q relief?

The Enterprise does not share
the enthusiasm shown by our
esteemed neighbor the Colorado
Transcript, in it's criticism of Au-
ditor Ready Kenehan, in his. ac-
ton with reference to the Noun
tain Park Roads matter. The
fact that no crooked work was
found is no argument that an in
vestigation was uncalled for.
Auditor Kenehan was within the
line Of duty, and we believe the
state of Colorado and the Demo-
cratic party is to be congratula-
ted upon having an official who
does not shirk the responsibility
resting upon his shoulders even
though the task may be an I'M
pleasant one. Jefferson county
is also to be congratulated in
having escaped what promised to
be a most disagreeable scandal,
through the honesty and integ-
rity of one of its county officials.
However, the lax method of
handling the public's money,
when brought to the auditors
attention was just cause for sift-
ing the matter to the bottom.

Although not so large as Il would
have been had the weather been more
propitious, quite number Of represen.
tative citizens from the second and
third districts were present at meeting
held in La Plata on Saturday last. the
object Of which was to discuss and
suggest ways aud means to be adopted
to get better and more road improve
ment 10 their districts. The effort APP
parentIy was to get the members OF tho
Senate and House Of Delegates to
pledge themselves to use all their In
drence to have Incorporated in the
good roads appropriation bill clause
which would compel the Roads Com
mission to build road from Mason's
Springs, where the State road now
terminates on past Ripley to Port To-
bacco. That being built. with branch
from La Plata to Port Tobacco, Il was
commended. with a continuation Of the
State appropriations would be the be-
ginning OF the system which would
eventually carry the work on towards
Riverside. through one OF the most
prosperous portion OF our county and
which all the speakers pointed out was
entirely neglected by the State and
county.
Senator Mudd and Delegates Posey
and Dement, we're present and after
earnest speeches we're made by Judge
W. II. Gray, Anthony Wynn, f. 4.
Mattingly, Mr.. Mcdonald and others,
Senator Mudd stated that while he was
satisfied that the delegation would do
all that was possible to get through the
bill to appropriate the s6,0o0,O00, for
rvad Improvements in the State, he
thought it inadvisable to have incor-
porated in the bill clause that would |
bind the Roads Commission to build
any particular road and further shat
while he favored building and improv-
ing roads in the second and third dis
tricts he thought that it should be left
entirely with the Commission to decide
where and what roads should be built
otherwise the Commission might take
1t as an sffront.
That, too, was the substance of Mr.. I
Posey's remarks except, however, that
he would use his utmost endeavor and
vote to have enacted the states road ap-
preparation bill and he would then use
all influence. which be may have with
the States Road Commission to induce
them to continue the road from Mason's
Springs on towards Port Tobacco. He
said that in his opinion it was far bet
ter for greater number OF people to
have this route laid out and built than
to have it go longer distance and over
a route which already has far better
roads than the one suggested by the
citizens then present.
Mr.. Dement,, owing to the distance he
had to travel. did not reach La Plata
until after the meeting adjourned, but
10 conversation held with those present
bis position on the question was appar-
entity satisfactory.
