Now that he has the Legislature off
his hands he should make good and
his attention should not be entirely
given to gambling joints and midnight

companies, One way of preventing
strikes will be to enforce the laws

There is no occasion to be disap-
pointed over failure to secure the de-

spring as the proposition 10 plant
three thousand acres of beets was not
received until many farmers to the
south of us had their crops in and
those of Montezuma and La Plata
acreage planned and seed provided
for other purposes. There is no like
lihood that the Monte Vista plant will
be dismantled during the year and if
the same proposition is made in time

The proof of the pudding is in the

Republicans will be continued in pow
er by increased maiorities. 1t is too
easily, therefore, to state what will
take place at the next election. While
the Herald does not approve of many
of the doings, it must be admitted
that much valuable legislation was
enacted. The new industrial relations
measure should prove exceptionally
valuable in the settling of labor diff

We believe Gov. Carlson took the
right view in vetoing the anti-Lind-

for Lindsey, but because it is mat
ter up to Denver to handle. Judge
Lindsey may be all right in handling
young boys and girls, but his mouth
runs away every now and then and
the trouble is he never has a good
word to say for Colorado. The voters
showed their contempt for him by re-
pudiating his advice last fall and his
speeches made in the east upholding
