are quite familiar with the facts
concerning the important events in
the San Juan country.
The occasion for the opening of the
San Juan-San Luis valley highway
offers an opportunity for more ex-
tensive advertising than we have yet
had and includes not only the San
Juan country but also the San Luis
valley and the surrounding sections.
When we are thru with this matter

who have never before visited the

to their homes with the pleasant
recollections of the occasion on top
of the continental divide the San Juan

SAN LUIS VALLEY
MAKING READY

1t is quite evident that from the
publicity given the San Juan-San Iu-
is valley proposed highway celebra-
tion on July IT, the San Luis valley
people are taking much interest in
the coming event.
The Del Norte Commercial club
sent representatives to meeting at
Saguache where an enthusiastic road
meeting was held and the celebration
matters discussed with much interest.
The San Juan Prospector suggests
that they hold meetings in other
towns in the valley in preparation for
the coming event. This is certainly
timely suggestion, and is along
the line of the work that has been
done in the San Juan during the last
year.
The San Luis valley people are
planning to get out special advertis-
ing for the occasion which is the
proper thing to do. The San Juan
people have been engaged in a cam
paign of advertising for about one
year and our literature has been sent
in quantities to almost every sec
tion of the United States. Hundreds
of dollars have been spent and months
of hard work added in, will certainly
bring results. Our campaign has be-
come so extensive that the San Juan
has become quite familiar in various
sections. Occasionally we see arti-
lies in such dailies as are published

On sober second thought we don't
blame the Democrats for favoring a
platform with but two words in it, as
long as they are figuring Woodrow
Wilson as their leader, for he can be
depended upon to disavow, repudiate,
or circumvent any and every plank
they put in platform anyway. He
has repudiated everything in the pro-
ceedings of the last convention, ex-
cept the adoption of his own name
as candidate, and by insisting on its
retention, has repudiated the best
plank in the platform, the one which
