Is Patterson Ever Sincere!

The Rocky Mountain News on Sept.
26 in reporting the Democratic Rally
says:
Senator Thomas was introduced by
Patterson who paid high tribute to
his work as a senator in the Demo-
cratic national administration. But
In double loaded editorial in the
News on June 13, 1913 T. NJ. Patter-
son now democratic candidate for
governor paid his respects to Senator
Thomas now candidate for re-elec-
ton on the same ticket as himself. in
the following vigorous language:
Senator Thomas has made clear
cut issue within the Democratic par
ty of Colorado which is going to be
settled at the next state primary That
issue is: Does Colorado's Democracy
stand for -adulterated free trade,
and does Colorado possess any single
industry or product that should not be
put on the free list if the national ad-
ministration concludes that it should
be put on the free list
Senator Thomas has proven himself
the most faithful servant of a political
administration that ever represented
Colorado at Washington. When he lef.
Denver for the extra session he did
not favor free sugar; at least he con-
veyed that impression to many with
whom he conversed but he had not
been at the capitol very long, when,
If there is any benefit to be derived
from tariff for revenue on the pro-
ducts and industries of the state, he
was cheerfully willing to let it slide,
if the president wished that it should.
I'm opposing even d tariff revenue
on sugar Senator Thomas displayed
the proyerbial zeal of the new con-
vert. Not content with voting to make |

TimberlsAe for Congress

The State Canvassing Board baG a
serious time In finding OUT jrst who
was nominated for Congress on the Re
publican Ticket from the Second Con-
gressional District. Through a blunder
in the count at one time McCreery of
Greeley was accredited the nomination
by eight votes but Mr.. Timberlake has
now had the Certificate of Nomination
issued to him and he together with the
other candidates on the Republican
Ticket will keep up vigorous cam
paign from now till the polls close on
November 3rd. With. Phil Stuart as
Chairman and John F. Vivian, Secre-
tary and a strong list of candidates
and all the campaign material handed
them by the incompetency of the Dem
ocratic Party during their last two
administrations there will be some
thing doing over the entire state ey-
cry minute ,-..
Among the interesting things plan
ned for the Republican campaign will
be an automobile tour of the State by
the leading candidates. This will en-
able the candidates to meet many more
people than in any other way

TsaVes, usaer tho leadership OF Minor
tty Leader Mann, made game fight
to prevent the passage of the al
legged war" tax measure imposing a
500 900. 900 tax on the people. A few
days prior to the consideration of the
measure, Mr.. Mann said:
There is no need to put new taxes
on the people at this time. While there
may be slight falling off In customs
receipts during the European war, that
can easily be more than met by proper
governmental economy. The war in
Europe may be over soon and the treas
ury can meet the expenses of the gov
ernment without difficulty for long
time to come If it draws on the govern
ment money now deposited in the
banks. Much of the money already ap-
propriated need not be used for the
present II the President will direct the
departments to practice economy
There are things which can wait over
Temporary delay In many cases will
be no injury -:---~4~
For the seven months of this year
ending with July 81, before the war be-
gan, our imports from foreign coun-
tries were 1872 million dollars more
than they we're for the same period
last year, while our exports were 1926
million dollars less. This In caused by
the Underwood tariff. The balance
of trade in our favor for these seven
months in this year was co million dol
lars. For the same seven months last
year, the balance of trade in our IA
vor was 30S million dollars. This
shows a falling off in the balance of
trade IN our favor in seven months be-
fore the war commenced of 24S mil
lion dollars in gold. That is one of the
main troubles with the country now
and is the result of the new tariff law.
II we were manufacturing the goods
we use instead of importing them, we
would have prosperity, and if we had
high import duty on the
goods we bring in from abroad. we
would have sufficient revenue without
question. What we need now is econ
)my and not new taxes. What we have !

SeldOmrIdge Attacked by His Own
PARTY ,~...

Andy Adams one Of the Democrat
Leaders In FL Paso County has come
out with signed statement in regard
to Congressman Seldomridge who is
! candidate for reelection this fall q
Adams accuses Congressman Seldom
ridge with duplicity and declares he is
suffering with exaggerated ego" He
declares that Seldomridge broke faith
with the Democrats of Greeley by ap-
pointing postmaster there who was
not acceptable to the Democratic party
and that he also turned down his best
friend in Colorado Springs. as we'll as
broke promise after promise when he
appointed Postmaster O. W. Ward, a
grocer who had never taken an active
part in politics. He declares in his
statement that Seldomridge would
lick the boots of anyone in Washing
ton if he thought it would be to his
own personal interest
"As party-wrecker Seldomridgc is
entitled to wear the champion belt" lie
declares. mo other man has been quite
so successful in pulling the house
down on his own head. No one can
match him in sudden flight to the
heights: no one has revealed such a
sudden descent into quagmire of rot
ten politics" In conclusion, he says:
"The ballot is our refuge. our high
court of resort; let us use it in rebuk-
ing those who gain our confidence on
ly to betray"

The Nerve Of Some People

The Julesburg News last week in it's
editorial columns claims that Sena-
tor Patterson will be elected Govern
or this fall because he is old and can
able. No one disputes either of these
two allegations. But-the people of
Colorado know that Patterson is lust
iike>a great many other people. he re-
fuses to use neither his age and with
it his experience or his capabilities for
anyone but Patterson.
In the same column he saws. .The
opponents of George Carlson" have
not hesitated to brand him as side
stopper and a four-Gusher". That is
no more than to be expected by cur
Democratic Friends but simply state
ment coming from the opposition does
not prove it. If their statement is true
we wonder why they do not come out
in the open and tell where and when
Mr.. Carlson has ever side stepped on
any proposition. Brother Finch seems
to be worrying a great deal because
someone does not dispute the accusa-
ton. What's the use when Mr.. Carl
sons every day life puts the brand on
any such accusation

Mr.. Mitten is confident OF his election

he is assured by those he meets that
he will have their support at the elcc-
tion. The people in genera; having ar
rived at the conclusion that we have
had enough of Democratic extrava-

cal methods at the State House. Many
Progressivcs assure Mr. NIitten that
they will vote for him as they see no
chance for their candidate to win anG

been made within the Democratic par
ty of Colorado. is COLORADO'S DEM

And again in the News of July 18th
of last year ex-senator Patterson
said:

ing inquire why should the governor
ship honor be bestowed on him!
Has Senator Patterson ever perfor-
med one public service to the people
of this state? If he has. will he kindly
mention it In his Pueblo speech.
Has Senator Patterson any claim on
the Democratic party by reason of the
fact that he ever supported an entire
Democratic State ticket or an entire
Democratic city ticket in the City OF
Denver? II he ever did will he kindly
name the year in his Pueblo meeting?
Has Senator Patterson ever uttered
kind word to any financial interest
that was planning to invest in this
state that he did not rescind that ut
terance and change II to abuse within
one year after the investments had
been made? II so. will he kindly refer
us to the investors that we may be-
come acquainted with and congra.u-
late them on having missed the yigOr-
Gus attacks of his pen?
! Has there ever been a month in the
history of MIR. Patterson's life ir Colo
RADIO that some part of 1t has not been
given over to abuse. villification and
tearing down. not only of the character
of the men and women of our state
but also of our state institutions, its
resources and the fundamental life
through either the writings, the spec
ches or the general public life of Sen,
ator Patterson? II there is we would
be glad to know his name?
Senator Patterson has lived among
us for over a quarter Of a century
His entire life has been devoted to thai
which does not reflect the finer feel
ings and the nobler purposes of men
He has chosen during the entire ten.
or OF his life, to cast his lot with tht
minority that seek to control through
abuse and destruction, rather thar
through argument aud constructors
True, he has made for himself nam,
"
name is it? Personally. he is fine
gentleman but publicly and in his pro
fessional career he has completely
failed to choose "the better part"
Now. Mr.. Patterson, in the declining
years of his life seeks to have those
whom he has maligned; those whom
he has failed to inspire through an,
word of cheer or devotion to matters
good. grant unto him the honor Of
being governor of the state he has helt
back at least twenty-five years in Its
advancement. In all seriousness We
want to enter our protest against this
honor being conferred upon him.
We want every voter who hears hin
during this campaign to listen to hin
with the question in mind. What have
you done to warrant you in asking us
to reward you with such an honor?
