ASSURE ALL LAND BUYERS.
A SQUARE DEAL
BY CARL B. STOW

club stands ready to assure and
guarantee to every purchaser of
land a square deal; that the San
Luis Valley like all other agricul-
tural districts has land that great
ly varies in valuation; that the
purchaser desiring cheap farms
can find tracts worth from SIS to
$50 per acre, and those wanting
good improved farms can find
them at from S75 to 1925 per acre.
We realize and know that we
cannot populate this valley with a
successful and prosperous lot of
farmers if misrepresentation are
made at the time of purchase.
That they cannot be successful if
they are induced to buy more land
than they can afford to purchase
and properly handle, and if sales
are made to those who have come
to assist in the development of our
resources at higher price than
the land is worth, such deals will
retard and hold back our growth
and Improvement more than any
other one thing.
You cannot build up an agri
cultural district unless the farmers
are successful and prosperous, and
knowing this to be fact we have
an unprecedented opportunity to
advertise the San Luis Valley as
the one irrigated agricultural dis
trict of the Rocky Mountain Re-
gion where the investor is assured
square deal and his moneys
worth.
do not hesitate to say that if
the San Luis Valley Commerce
Club secures one thousand active
members, that this class of adver-
Using by such an organization will
attract hundreds of settlers to our
valley, and that many will locate
and become prosperous and sue
cessful because of the wonderful
resources, delightful climate, and
assurance of protection by The
San Luis Valley Commerce Club.

In large district like the San
Luis valley there are many prob
lens to solve during its develop
ment and growth, and the most
,uccessful and quickest way to
accomplish the upbuilding of such
an empire, is to face every prob
lem, good or bad, master the diff
culties and obstacles, and even use
the drawbacks as stepping stones
for greater development.
There is so much that can be
done during the development of
the resources of this valley, that
all should find interest and pleas
ure in assisting in this work. By
an organized effort and a persist
emf and united pull for the ad-
vsncement and upbuilding of this
splendid valley, the agricultural
and mineral resources should be
rapidly and substantially devel-
oped, making this the most attract
i've irrigated valley in the entire
Rocky Mountain region.
An organization known as the
San Luis Valley Commerce club
is now in existence with active
business men at its head, and
through this club more real pro-
gress can be made than through
any other organization doing bust
ness. The San Luis Valley Com
MERGE club should have a thous-
and active members and every
every town and farming district be
represented by men who are inter
ested in the moral and financial
advancement of the people and
business interests.
Through this organization there
should be a colonization bureau
established, who department
should be ready at all times to
assist real estate agents in inter
sstlng their prospective purchasers
In locating here and assist in every
way possible to bring more people
to the valley Also the colonial
lion bureau should advertise that

ed here last week and is working
with j. G. Miller on claims about
three miles Southwest of Sumner.
Smuggler-Sunbean Mine began

occurred on Alum Creek (half a
mile below Stunner) that about
three feet of soft mud WAS washed
in along with boulders and logs.
A few hours after the freshet O. p.
Carpenter returning from the val
ley, attempted to CROSS. His
horses sank in the debris till they
were nearly buried and only after
long struggle WAS Mr. Carpenter
able to reach the other side.
The crossing on the old road
has been fixed mp by people of this
vicinity and will be used till "the
powers that be-" see fit to fix our
State Highway 30 that it may
again be in a condition to use.

To Throttle Standard Oil Crowd
A Stupendous Job.

Standpa Republican in Congress recently
accused President Wilson of "a lack of courage!'
Woodrow Wilson is the only president who
has dared take issues with the Standard Oil crowd
and its methods.
The income of the Standard Oil com
pany declares cash dividend of S oooo,-
900 year and its benehcares have fully
one billion dollars invested in other than
Standard Oil securities from which $780,
100000 year is added, making $25o,ooo,-.
900 year to be reinvested d. Rookie
felers income from Standard Oil is esti-
mated at S4o,oooooo year and S3ooooooo
from other investments.
q One hundred families own ne-hafthe
wealth of the United States and control
the fate of the balance. Standard Oil is
the most important financial factor in the
United States II not IN the world and the
fortunes of one hundred families are linked
with it. The Rockefeers and their asso-
ciates control most of the railroads, ships,
steel copper, coal and hundreds of public
service and industrial monopoes banks
and insurance companies and whatever
else looks good to them.
The foregoing shows the magnitude of the Job
undertaken by President Wilson when he attempts
throttle the trusts, monopoles and big businesses
controlled by Standard Oil-the most stupendous
universal power developed in all history-and yet
his courage is assaed.
President Wilson and his policies will be the
issue during the coming campaign.
