Democrats Win in County, State and
Nation

Perhaps the most noteworthy feature
Of the recent election in Colorado and
Weld county. is the large importance
assumed by the Independent voter under
the headless ballot law. Under neces-
sity Of marking for each candidate de-
sired, he threw party ties to the dis
card, and in many instances voted for
candidates upon every ticket. There
were some of course who voted
straight, I" according to habits Of the
past; but to the big majority demo
cratic" or republican" after the candi-
dates name counted for much less than
did the opinions formed Of these candi-
dates from personal contact with them,
or from observation and published in
formation regarding their views. inten-
tions and policies.
But three republicans were elected IN
Weld county. w. r. Patterson's selec-
ton as county treasurer is largely due to
his individual popularity, and the fact
that the performance of the duties Of
the Office do not involve the making of
enemies, as is sometimes the case with
the Office of assessor and sheriff. Robert
E. Hanna, republican, was elected as
SCISSOR to succeed A. L. Mumper; and C.
R. Graves was reelected representative,
with the largest vote given any candid
ate for the Office. E. H. Houtchens,
democrat, was second, defeating w. X.
G.lcrest by SO votes. The reelection of
Mr.. Graves is especially gratifying to
eastern Weld county, and indicates more
than ever that there is no general SEN
timent against county division in the
irrigated section, notwithstanding the
activity Of those Greeley people who
succeeded in preventing the passage Of
the Graves bill for county division in
the Twentieth General assembly.
Following is the results from 81 out
of 20 Weld county precincts for the ma
tional and state officers:

The Aftermath
After each succeeding election
You see them in every direction;

A LESSON IN PUTTING AWAY
IlAUNDERED ARTICLES.

The young daughter Of the house
was putting away the fresh laundry,
which had just come home. She was
standing In the door Of the linen clos
ct, laying away piles of bath towels,
large hand towels, guest towels and
wash cloths, when her mother paused
by her to give a word Of guidance.
Don't lay the fresh towels back
on top of the others, dear. In that
way the same ones are used over and
over again, while the ones at the bot
tom do not get their share Of the
work. A towel lasts much longer If
1t rests a week before being used and
washed again. The natural tendency
is to take clean towels from the top Of
the pile. you see; so, when you put
away the clean ones, lift up the others
and put these beneath.
"The same thing is true OF sheets,
pillow cases, and bureau runners. Let
things take their turn and they will
wear much better. In fact. II / were
you. / would observe the same rule
about my clothes. when your linger-
lie comes up from the laundry, don't
put the same things on that have just
been laundered. hut lay them at the
bottom Of the drawer and work from
the top Of the supply. Stockings es-
pecially should be worn In rotation.
you'll find the same thing to be
true of your handkerchiefs, You lay
the clean ones in on top of the others
in the case, and use them directly
over again, while the ones beneath
stay there week after week unused.
Just get the trick Of putting fresh
things away at the bottom instead Of
the top, and you'll give all Of your
things a chance to work and a chance
to rest"
