The eighth proposition which is

present constitution was adopted
March IA, 1876; forty years ago the
fourteenth day of last March. Since
then it has been amended number
of times and many of our citizens
feel that an entirely new constitution
should be drafted. If it is carried
the next legislature must provide for
an election to be held some time dur

constitutional convention will be se-
lected. The number Of delegates is

What Happened to Smith
A LIE WHICH IS HALE A TRUTH
is DIFFICULT TO COMBAT
BUT IT is NO LESS A LIE AND
NO LESS REPREHENSlBLE.

John Smith had three friends, all
of whom he admitted 10 ms home.
One of these friends came TO hiln re-
peatedly and made statements derug-
atory to the character ana integrity
OF the other two. For time smith
gave no serious thought to such
statements, but by constant repiti-
ton to hun he at last believed them,
and by his changed attitude and cool
ness toward the two friends, they
We're irrevocably ahenated from him.
After time an acquaintance who
was familiar with the circumstances,
explained to Smith that while the
statements We're based upon some
truth not in itself harmful, it had
been SO warped, distorted and partly
suppressed, that he had been led to
do a grave injustice toward the oth-
er two. knowing this, what was tie
proper course for Smith to pursue?
What of the false friend. " hat
would our readers do ii they we've
placed in Smiths position? Should
he close his doors against the ,hs-
honest and false friend who had per
petrated tins grave wrong, an1 DIS
beneve anything ne might say TO h'm
thereafter, or should ne continue to
trust him and welcome him into his
home upon the old time basis OF
trust, friendship and affection that
had existed before his perfiJy be-
came known2
The Durango Democrat and those
candidates, if any, ON the Democratic
ticket who are responsible for it,
have been guilty in this campaign Of
a most reprehensible and unjust dis
tortion of the facts with reference
to the Resolutions adopted by the Re
publican county assembly in August
last. 1t has willfully and deliberate
ly suppressed from its readers por-
ton of the sentence in the resolu-
tions it has so brazenly and phari-
saically pretended to condemn, an aci
that any honorable person would hes
itate to attribute to even the most
vicious, ignorant and prejudiced par
tisan known to modern American pol.
itics. 1t has done this with a mani
fest intent to maliciously deceive ant
prejudice its readers, probably with
a forlom hope that few votes
might be diverted to the Democrat,
ticket by holding up to public scorr
and condemnation the writer's of the
resolutions and the Republicans O.
La Plata County.
Up to this time the Herald has ig-
nored the blatant comments made by
the Durango Democrat upon the por-
ton of the resolutions it pretended
to, but did not fully, publish, because
we knew it was attempting to de-
ceive its readers by publishing only
a part of the sentence and suppress
ing its remainder. We believed it Of
little importance as an issue in the
campaign, and that no thinking per-
son would accept II as true or consid-
er it in other than a ,serio-comic
light, taking into consideration the

IAlIIAIED AND REFERRED
BILLS,

The lhiId proposition to be voted
upon by the people is the most dis
c-aaod OF ali the propositions, it is
known Us the Beer Amendment, and
p-o.ldes. "Beer is hereby daclared
10 be- "a Notwithstanding liquor with
iu tine meaning oI tins Article Of the
Constitution, and tine manufacture
ana sale OF beer is hereby made law
fut, provided, however, that all beer
shall be sold in unbroken packages
ana delivered directly to the con-
sumner at his residence. The State
Treasurer shall charge and collect u
e,a. OF ten (lO) cents per barrei for
each and every barrel oil beer manu-
1aclured."
Every political party in the state
has resolved against this proposition,
Vote No.
The Fourth proposition seeks to
compel the Colorado Board Of Cor
recuons TO admit insane people into
tue Colorado Insane Asylum wheth-
er there be room Tor the admission
or not. 1t says; "Ihat all persons
VINO have been or may hereafter be
auudged to be insane, are hereby
mace wards Of the state Of Colorado;
and 1t is hereby made the duty OF the
Colorado Board OF Corrections to ad-
nile into the Colorado insane Asylum
or to provide and care Tor elsewhere,
adj insane persons who may be COM
mitUed to the Colorado Insane Asy-
bm.
That the statutes Of this state shall
not be constructed to limit the num-
bor OF insane persons to be kept in
any building at the Insane Asylum;
and lAe Colorado Board OF Correc-
aou5 shall have no power to make or
enforce any rule or bylaw which
Wla limit the number OF insane per-
sons 10 be cared Tor 10y the state, or
that will deny to any insane person
inc care furnished other insane per-
sons by the state, or that viii in any
way abridge the purposes of this
act"
This amendment is proposed by
lie city OF Denver and results from
tle fact that there was not room in
ola insane asylum for all the insane
in tae State Buildings have since
been erected which care for all the
So te's insane. Vote No.
The fifth proposition seeks to abol-
ish the Colorado Tax Commission.
At present the Colorado Tax Com
mission is an advisory body to the
rNIG OF Equalization. lt invest'-
yutas the values OF all corporate
property in the State and recon-
mends to the Board the value that
should be placed against the coIpo-
ratio property 1t also investigates
the values chat have been made by
ossesaora on local property, and rec
Iommcnds increases or decreases ac-
cording TO the Judgment it arrives
at aftor the investigation. 1t is the
information bureau OF the Board of
Equalization, which latter Board has
the final power to value every dol
lars worth Of property in the State.
The proposed law seeks to abolish
this Tax Commission and cause the
State Board of Equalization to do
all the work now being done by the
Tax Commission. Vote No.
