.pEEVED WOMAN ATTEMPTS
TO FAKE A SUICIDE

A junction City woman, relates
thelDaily Union, aroused excitement
in this way: @
There was a lot of excitement IL
one part of the city last evening due
to the fact that woman had taken
poison and was going to die. the
woman who was supposed to do the
diving act was clever actor and SIZE
caused more excitement than had
happened in her end of the city Tor
some time.
When in a repentant mood, after
the affair the woman admitted that
the family had had some little fam
ily difficulties. She decided that 1t
was time for her to leave her hus-
hand, and she decided to go the
poison route. She put on a good
act and did everything but take the
poison. Physicians arrived at her
bedside as quickly as possible ana
they soon discovered that the affair
was Just little family disturbance.

HOW DAWSON INTERPRETERS
MOTOR VEHICLE TAX LAW

So many reports ehave been given
of the workings of the motor vehicle
tax law, from the present time until
June 80, the end of the fiscal year,
that many persons even yet do not
understand how the law operates.
County Treasurer Morse Is in re-
ceipt of copy of the following let
ter from Attorney General Dawson:
Secretary of State, Topeka, Kan.
Dear Mr.. Sessions; have yours
Of December and answering your
first question l beg to say that the
cut rate of $3.50 only applies to au-
tomobiles and think it is not pos
sible to read anything into the stat
utes concerning motorcycles, nor
should 1t be construed to mean that
the rate on motorcycles is raised to
$3.50. 1t should be construed to
mean just $3.50 for the last six
months of the year.
To your second question I beg to
say that the seventy five cents must
be exa'cted by you out OF the half
year fees on automobiles. / do not
think you are authorized to accept
less than the seventy-five cents.
I regret that my time presses so
that / am not able to analyze this
thing further but l am satisfied this
states the correct Interpretation OF
the law. With kind regards,
JOHN s. DAWSON,
Attorney General.

GEORGE PEATLING HAS
A FINE VOLTS SKIN

George Peatling was in town the
other day with fine VOLTS skin
as large as any that Dickinson coun-
ty hunters have brought in. Mr..
Peatling lives in Sherman township
He was out one day hunting. His
dog went into the woods, but soon
came out again, followed by a large
wolf. The wolf attacked Mr..
Peatling but he shot it through the
neck. His friends are urging him
to have the skin mounted. The
shot entered in such a place that
the hole would not show in mount
ing.

When George Carlson say thing

Lets have a fight SO fierce that
when Work and l go into a town
there will be half dozen fist fights

knows it is booked for a campaign
this fall such as she has never seen
before. And when Carlson is elect
ed, Colorado will have governor
who will be governor from the time
he is inauguratcd until his successor
is elected and qualified.
No better recommendation could
be given any man than the conf
dence bestowed upon him by the peo-
pie who know him. For instance. in
1912 he was the only Republican
elected In his district and he received
more votes than Taft and Roosevelt
combined. In the primary campaign
which has Just closed he received
more votes in northern Colorado than
all his opponents combined, and even
though he was an unknown man
personally his reputation had 80
permeated this state that he was able
to defeat the celebrated Nicholson
and the matchless Goudy.
In talking with him, in watching
him work and in following his Off
cial life there are Just four words
that describe the man: Clean-fear-
less-able-just.
Will the people OF Colorado elec:
him? Everyone who knows Senator
Patterson knows that Carlson has the
fight of his life on his hands, yet
everyone who knows Carlson knows
that fighting is a pleasure to him.
and that the harder the licks he re-
ceives the harder will be the knocks
he gives. He fought his way to the
district attorneyship of the eighth
judicial district against odds almost
insurmountnble. He cleaned that
district of its grafters and Its boot
leggers when even his best friends
advised him to desist because they
feared for his life and his future po-
litical history. He won the Re2ub-
lican nomination for governor when
two weeks before the primary the
and he won with every party leader
predicting that lie would be defeat

that bulldog determination that
g glistened In his eyes when he said:
Lets have such a fight that when
Work and | go into town there will

terwards.'

his district and Immediately start
ed to clean out the jungle in the low
lands across the river from Fort Col
Inns, Colorado. That's why George
Carlson tackled it. When he fin
ished he had cleaned 1t up and the
jungle leaders had in return killed
his evidence man and threatened his
life. Following this he determined
to put stop to perjury in courts in
his district Within nine months
five men were in the penitentiary
and those who testified in the courts
of that district realized that perjury
meant prison. Hence, few cases went
wrong so far as evidence is con-
cerned in that district. Following
this, he decided to put the blind tig-
ers out Of business. Within twenty
three days he had secured fifty-eight
convictions, all on confessions and
had collected $1,000 in fines from
the illegal liquor sellers in the four
counties.
There is not a person in Colorado
who does not know of his record in
the prosecution of the bridge graft
ers in Weld county. Within six
months after he was elected he start
cd in to compel the gang in Weld
county that had been profiting off Of
bridge building at the expense OF the
county to dissorge. Fourteen months
later four men were serving time In
Canon City and $35. .93O.60 had been
returned to the county by the graft
crs. ,
When the strike started In north
ern Colorado he went to each side,
told them he was district attorney
and that any evidence which they
produced would be used in the prose-
cution of criminals for the mainten-
ance of law and order. His strike
prosecution record is too well known
for discussion here.
Hence. when the question is asked.
"Who is George Carlson?" the an
swer can be read in his official acts
as district attorney in the eighth ju-
dicial district. He is one man who
reads the law, understands it and
executes it.
When he was prosecuting the
bridge grafters in Weld county, they
and their friends were doing every
thing possible to scare, calole and
prevent him from doing his duty.
Those men are going to the peni-
tentiary and that money is going to
be returned to the treasurer OF Weld

ports by the Moroccan government
on August 10, and forcibly taken OIL
board the French cruiser Cassard,

GEORGE CARLSON WILL CONDUCT
"HuM DINGER" CAMPAIGN IN COLORADO

Let's conduct a campaign that viii
Let's have such fight that when
Work and | go into town there will
be half dozen fist fights before we
begin speaking and as many more af.
terwards Let's run such cam
paign as will put Colorado on the
map
1t was George Carlson, the Reub-
lican candidate for governor, talk
ing across the table while he partook
breakfast consisting of half a
cantaloupe and cup of black coffee
"Who is George Carlson" is the
question that has been asked hun
dred times day during the last few
months. The above statement made
in outlining the kind of a campaign
he wanted answers the question as to
who he is. Up north he is called
the fighting" attorney. 1t is safe
to assert that within month he will
be termed the "slusging" guberna-
torial candidate and within few
weeks after he has been elected gov
ernor, he will be known as the
knockout" governor of Colorado.
George Carlson not only looks like a
fighter. but he is a fighter. He is at
his best when things look the worst.
He has way of lowering his head
and shaking his forelocks while his
eyes glisten under a frOwning brow.
His sentences come in hammerlike
Jerks, and his fist is eternally going
back and forth like piston rod and
coming within a half inch or closer
to the nose of the person to whom
he is talking. He is every inch Il
force. just as is needed in the COVER
nors chair in this state to put Colo
RADIO again on the map.
What has George Carlson done?"
is another question that is often
asked.
He has made the law breakers in
the judicial district of which he Is
district attorney sit up and take no.
tice OF the fact that the laws in Colo
RADIO must be obeyed in Boulder
Larimer, Weld and Jackson counties.
He learned to obey law and rules
when he was in the state university.
He showed his force and the manner
of men he Is in the university by
capturing the class cane and carry
ing It one entire year. He rode the
ditch in Oklahoma which at that
time required fearless men. He was
