HEATING VERSUS MecLELLAND

In this weeks issue we lay before
our readers the history of the oppos-
inc candidates in the third congress
ional district witllcut bias, and leave
the voter to make hts selection.
Edward Heating, the Democc.a:ic
nominee, is now completing Ids sec
ond term in congress. Mr.. Keat-
ing four years ago was selected by
the Democracy Of the state as a. can
Ding that campaign he stumped the
state, against the Vreeland-Aldrch
tariff law, before the farmer as we'll
as the miner. He convinced them to
such an extent o. the a5surdity of ihe
law that he was tr.umphantly elected
He at once allied himself to the many
constructive reforms proposed by the
president, and ably assisted in the
framing of these measures into law.
His constituents were SO we'll pleas
ed with his record in congress at the
end of two years, that he was re-
nominated and reelected from his
district. During his last term lie in
trodmced and had passed through both
houses of congress the Child Labor
bdla that is now a law, and from
which suffering humanity Will more
keenly commend him as the years
roll by. For the third time Mr. Keat.
ing is again in nomination, and
should again be elected for several
reasons.
First that he is in accord with
the presidents constructive program
OF Legislation that has caused Amer
ican industry to hum as never be-
fcre.' And secondly, that his ac-
quaintance with men OF state gives
him great prestige in congress. re-
garding the welfare of Colorado, that
no rev member, out of harmony with
/ the executive and congress can hope
to attain. II the constituency of
Mr.. Keafing have grievance, all
they have to do is to inform Efm
and he at once sets at work to rem
edy it, If within his power, and for
the good of Colorado and hts district
/ he should be returned
Now let us review the history CT
George McCellapd his opponent. Mr..
McClelland is business man and
his integrity and his word cannot be
, questioned. He is known locally as
q man of exceptional good business
I ideas. and a perfect gentleman in
tile business walks of life. He no
doubt would try to promote tire msn-
ing industry, bnt as he would belong
to the minority party, his efforts
would not be as successful as one
who thoroughly understands tie rules
of congress.
! AS Republican, it would embarrass
him to vote for administration con-
structive laws, as against HIS own
party. Under different conditions 40
doubt Mr.. McClelland would make nn
excellent congressman, but under
present conditions he cannot be OF
as much benefit rs one that is i'm
harmony with the administration. .
