Stocker, Mulnix and Ramer, the same
Republicans who at present are arous-
ing about 90 94lOO per cent of the
Honest Ones ire.
It's More Than Foam
From the Democratic lack of concern
one might almost get the idea that the
beer amendment is all froth
Modern Father Goose".
Young Leslie Hubbard
Went to his cupboard
To get out platform plank;
But when he got there
The cupboard was bare,
And Leslie said "Blankety-blank!
For, you see, Leslie as state inheri-
tance tax appraiser had collected much
money through the deaths Of number
of Colorado millionaires. And how
could he know that the very first time
he would yelp, "Where is it," the
nasty Republicans would take him
gently but firmly by the hand and lead
him to where it was piled up as sur
plus in the state treasury? For surplus,
be it known. is something not in the
democratic dlctlonary.
Just because it's headess ballot it
no reason why You should be in the
same condition when you start in with
your pencil on November 7.
Keep to the Right, Please.
Safety First! Even the Denver traf-
fic cops have got the right idea. Look
ing at their painted signal from one
direction it reads, "STOP.' From an
other it appears as "Go.' But from
one angle as the signal is turned the
first half of "GO" and the last half
of "STOP' spring into view, thus an
nouncing "G. O. P" Verify the signs
of Republican year are on every cor
ner.
Old General Prosperity
Colorado's crops are worth something
like $1S00O,0OO more than in any pre-
ceding year. Isn't it remarkable how
the states good times always seem to
drift pleasantly along hand in hand
with Republican state administration,
That lottery Platform
Aren't those Democrats the merry
little overnight changers. Two years
ago they declared, solemnly and plat
formily, in favor of compulsory arbi-
tration. They said the state, in the
public interest, should forcibly prevent
strikes. and lochouts.1 And in this year
of grace they fail utterly in their plat
form or speeches, to support the indus
trial commission law. passed by the
Republicans, and which, through its
peaceable and satisfactory working, has
prevented strikes, kept men at work
in profitable conten tment and brought
labor and capital closer together than
ever before in Colorado's history. Why?
Oh, well; it wasn't Democratic law,
you know!
Hardness Explained.
News note-the state Democrats
were just five days late with their plat
form.)
They snooped around; they loafed
around;
They soldicred through the livelong
Il day:
They spake no word; they wrote no line,
But frittcred morn and eve away.
"Why do YOU Democrats thus loaff'
The people came at last to ask.
"Why do YOU let the days roll by
Yet lend no hand unto your task?n
"Well, now the Democrats replied.
"We're waiting for the G. O.. P.'s
To frame their platform; then we hope
From it we may get some idees!"
A Chance TO "r1gger."
Past performance is better than
party pledge. Compare these:
Four years of Shafroth-A beautiful
ly budding deficit
Two years of Ammons-More ambi.
tious, night ht-blooning deficit.
Two years of Carlson-All Democratic
debts paid and surplus in the treasury
of 100000. l
Exercise your pencil on that while.

Come Well Recommended
Men may be known by the enemies
they make. The saying, while old stu1,
is applicable right now. Governor
Carlson and Secretary of State Ramer
have succeeded grsndly in incurring the
implacable hatred Of the, Denver Post.
Wherefore viewed from that angle
alone, Carlson and Ramer stack up as
rather high class men.
