Speaking OF recent reductions
OF taxes to corporations in Den.

marks.
No city will llprosper whenfrom
year to year the tax burden IL
lifted from the bie taxpayer,
where it rightly belongs, and
placed unjustly on the shoulders
Of the small taxpayer, already
overburdened.
Their statement that they did
this 'in Justice the corporations
|is q sha meless confession.
II this results in another horiz-
ontal raise this year on all pro-
perty other than corporations
and banks, etc, these men should
be fired from their jobs. /"

Late Lies to Be Dis
counted

During the local campaign
which has besn more or less
''hot" during the past two weeks,
there have been circulated. BY
word Of mouth, in the various
precincts Of the county many
stories tending to discredit the
candidates ON the Democratic
ticket. These stories have un-
doub.edly been circulated by Re-
publicans and their sympathisers
These stories have not been
founded on truth and are utterly
unreasonable and their apparent
purpose has been to undermine
the popular favor for different
democratic candidates.
The local democratic party
and it's workers have based its
campaign efforts on recital Of
the qualifications and merits OF
it's candidates. and whenever any
statements have heen made or
published which tend to discred-
it the republican candidates such
statements have been based on
facts which could be verified by
public or other records. Fur.
thermore such statements have
been made openly and in due
time for the opposition to make
an adequate reply, if they were
able to do so. They have failed
| in all cases to make a reasonable
reply.
In line with the republican Of
forts By "gum-shoe" methods
OF circulating stories with the
purpose Of hurting their oppon-
ents, it is expected that the re-
publicans will publish in the last
issue Of The Republican a ''line
OF stuff" in the nature of ''mud"
hoping thereby to circulate false
statements too late for their op-
pOnents to answer to same.
If the expected in this respect
happens the voters may not be
surprised and undoubtedly every
honest voter will weigh the Re-
publican dope published in their
paper, or by circular or other
wise with great deal OF eau
tion.

The State Ticket

Every Democrat can iesl proud
Of the state ticket Of the party
for the November election, and
can give it hearty support,
lnowing that the best interests
Of Colorado will be served by
the candidates headed by Judge
julius C. Gunter, the candate for
governor. Judge Gunter was a
strong candidate when nominat-
ed and has grown In strength
every day since then. The DEM
ocrats will give him their undi-
vided support, and in addition
he will receive most OF the in
dependent vote because Of his
general fitness to I'll with credit
to himself and the entire state.

of Colorado. James A. Pulliam,
candidate for lieutenant gov
ernor, is qualified to perform
the duties Of governor II he

stand at it's head. Robert III.

dates ever nominated for treas

James r. holland Of Denver as a
prominent newspaper worker

tarial work as secretary of the
Denver fire and police board.
He has been prominent In many
movements for the advancement
Of the state and his efforts in this
direction willnot be forgotten by
the voters in various sections oi
the state. Charles H. Leckenby
OF Steamboat Springs, is one ol
the best known newspaper pub
fishers in the state. He is the
Democratic candidate for state
auditor and would fiji the posi-
tion most satisfactorily. Many
Republican newspapers testify to
his worth by supporting him for
this Office. Mary G. G. Bradford,
superintendent OF public instruc.
