Secretary of State Ramer, who
is candidate for reelection on
the Republican ticket, has gone
contrary to the law in publishing
the initiated amendments in sew
eral daily papers thruout the
state, when that law explicitly
provides that the publishing shall
be done in one weekly paper in
each county for four weeks. The
d ally papers will publish the
amendments in twenty eight is.
sues, which means that it will
cost the state seven times more
than it would had Mr.. Ramer fol-
lowed his instructions in the law.
No fault can be found with the
secretary for giving the Repub-
lican weeklies in the state the
patronage, as they are entitled to
it, the present administration be-
ing Republican, but there is no
excuse in violating the law to
make present of several thous-
and dollars of state funds to GER
tain publishers of Republican
daily newspapers.

Not OnlyNa Translator
But a Prevaricat0r

We are hearing lot in this presiden-
tial campaign-bo.h from Hughes and
Roosevelt, principally Roosevelt, about
"translating words into deeds" squaring
actions with words, etc. We are not
much given to taunting man with what
no said or did years ago, but we cannot
refrain from quoting at this time from a
speech made by Roosevelt to gather
ing of Progressives in 1913. These were
the Colonel's noble and inspiring words:
"Men and women, would continue
the fight even il | stood entirely alone
/ shall continue it with glad and proud
heart because it is made in your com
pany.
"Win or lose, whatever the outcome, ]
am with you, and am for this cause, to
fight to the end We are dedicated in
this great war for righteousness, and
while life lasts we cannot and we will
not abandon it.
"rhe men who believe that we will
ever betray these ideals, or abannon the
task to which we have set ourselves do
not know us and cannot ever guess.
"rhis movement will never go back,
and whatever may betide in the future,
OF one thing the disciples of an easy op-
portunism may rest assured-I will never
abandon the principles to which we Pro-
gressives have pledged ourselves, and
will never abandon the men and women
who drew around me to battle for these
principles"
And now, three years later, the same
Roosevelt, having abandoned all OF the
principles to which the Progressives
pledged themselves, and all of the men
and women who drew around him to
battle for those principles, has joined
with Taft, Penrose, Smoot, Crane and
Others whom he denounced four years
ago.
Speaking OF "translating words into
deeds" our old friend, the colonel, is
some translator all right-pueblo Star

Being unable to pick any flaws
in his character or to attack his
competency to fill the office, the
Republicans are circulating the
story over the state that the
nomination of James R. Noland
for secretary of state on the Dem
ocratic ticket was brought about
by the proprietors of the Denver
Post The Tribune is in posi-
tion to know that such is not the
case, and that the Post people
did not know his name was under
consideration by the committee
until after the nomination had
been made.
Mr.. holland is not the candi-
date of any clique or sect, but is
making the campaign purely on
his merits, and is being support
ed by many friends and acquaint-
ances in all the parties because
they know and trust him, and
are doing it without promises of
any kind.
If he is elected, and we believe
he will be, Jim holland will go
into Office without any yoke
around his neck, and conduct its
affairs in the interest of all the
people.

My Dear Editor; In recent issue Of
the Elbert County Tribune noticed to
my great satisfaction an announcement
of the candidacy for recollection to the
office of county treasurer, of my old
friend and schoolmate, Tom Burnside.
wish to take this occasion to com
mend you for the excellent editorial
which you wrote in behalf OF Mr.. Burn
sides reelection.
Having known Mr.. Burnside for more
than thirty years, and for long period
before he became resident of your
county, it was indeed very gratifying to
an old friend to note that his new nc
quaintances have placed the same conf
dence in his integrity, honesty and sin
cerity OF purpose, as his friends have
who knew Tom from early boyhood.
When men of Tom 5 stamp and charac
ter are entrusted with public office it
shows that the voters of his community
are exercising wisdom and discretion.
In my oHicial capacity at Washington
have often received letters from Tom
Burnside boosting enterprises in which

for me to o-operata with your repre-
sentatives in congress, having been con.
