publican Primaries, seps. sth-


Nearly everybody in the state Of
Colorado knows and loves Harry E.
Mulnix. 1t is doubtful whether .
better known or better liked man
through the state ever dwelt in Colo
RADIO. 1t is not surprising. therefore,
that large number Of his friends
should have suggested his name by
petition for the Republican nomina-
ton for state auditor.
Everyone must agree that Mr.. Null
nix is peculiarly qualified for the Of
fice. He is by profession . certified
public accountant. II is his life work.
He has special knowledge derived not
only from his daily occupation but
also from his having served as stats
treasurer on former occasion. Mr..
Mulnix's administration Of that Of
fee showed great ability and left
nothing to be desired and the people
Of Colorado know that his election
as auditor will mean the most care
full and intelligent administration Of
one of the states most important Of
fees.
His political activities have always
been characterized by rugged hon.
esty, and corruption or irregularity
in public office has always met his
fierce opposition. The mass of Re-
publican voters will welcome the re-
turn of Harry e. Mulnix to public life
and the opportunity to support him
for state auditor.
