Produce Gratifying Results.

Ora e raw potatoes to fine pulp in
clear water, and pass the liquid
through coarse sieve into another
vessel of water. Let the mixture stand
until the fine white PARTICLES of the

United support by both the repub-
licans and progressives has given
Neil N. Mclean Of Lamar an advan-
tage in the race for the nomination
for congressman from the third dis
trict at the primaries on September 8.
Mr.. Mclean received the Endorsement
of the assemblies of both parties, the
only one to get such recognition. This
was done with a view to uniting the
factions in the Arkansas valley, es-
pecially as the surest means of dis
placing democratic misrule. In adj
dition the people Of the Arkansas val
ley recognize the value of having a
man in congress who is thoroughly
conversant with the states industries
and resources.
While Mr.. Mclean has been engag-
ed in the drug and jewelry business
for the past twenty years in Lamar,
he has given large part of his time
to agriculture, stock aising and dairy
work, being the owner of several big
farms in Prowers county. On one of
these he has probably the largest herd
of high grade holstein cattle in the
state. He has assisted largely in de-
veloping the sugar beet interests in
the Arkansas valley and in making
the first milk condensery in the state
at Lamar, a success. He has lived in
southeastern Colorado for over 81
years, coming here when only 10
years of age. Since then he has made
his own way. His, first job was
freighting from Lamar to Springfield,
Colorado, at $40 per month and board.
He is now one Of the largest individ-
ual taxpayers in Prowers county.

Tellin' Tales

Not satisfied with the admissions
Crary made in the Crouch last week
of his frame-up with Simpson, Prof.
Jones took his pen in hand last night
to make a few admissions himself. AS
an admitter the Prof. proved himself
without an equal in the county, and he
could easily do SO because no one else
has half as much to admit, if the
truth were told. He admits that "his"
progressive ticket and the democrats
were in a frame-up last election on
the district ticket, but let's out a great
squeal because he fell outside Of the
breastworks. For this reason he claims
the right to make another frame-up
this year-and why not. He drove the
tail off his old horse two years ago
organizing the progressive party for
his own needs, and he has worn out
a second hand auto keeping it alive
the past two years for the same pur-
poses. And now il he should fail to
land who would buy another auto. OF
course the professor has . right to
frame-up a deal, but the only ques-
ton is will the public fall for it?
The Register does not desire to de-
prive the little ring Of three Of their
inalienable right to frame-up deals,
we only wanted to publish the news.
