Just as It is now obstinately shut
ting its eyes to the need of Industrial
preparedness, for three years the VIII
son administration refused to see the
need Of adequate military prepared
ness. With war on our southern Dor.
der It was content to rely ON regular
army that could only muster 10000
available men and refused to continue
the established policy Of building up
our navy. When the time came for ac-
ton the country had not sufficient
troops to police the border, and this
force has been supplemented by trifle
more than one-third the war strength
Of the national guard. If the national
administration had had the ability to
interpret the signs Of the time military
preparedness would have been we'll un-

its record.

President Wilson's campaign man
ayers are entitled to all the comfort
they can get out Of calling the roll of
Progressives who are going to vote for
him. 1t would be an endless task to
call the roll of Progressives who are
not going to vote for him.

For every reason that can be ad-
vanced why Progressives should vote
for Wilson ten can be advanced why
they should vote for Hughes, and the
beauty Of it is that they know the rea-
sons without having to be told.

AS was announced in this paper
last week, a mass meeting of
farmers aud citizens of this Sec
ton will be held at the court
house in Julesburg next Saturday
night, Nov. 4. The purpose of
this meeting is to discuss plans
for sugar factory in this dis
trict Our sugar beet growers
are demanding that something be
done to better conditions which
now exist in this beet raising
section and the meeting next Sat-
urday night is being held for the
purpose of going into the matter
thoroughly.
A large number. Of the resi-
dents of the territory at large is
expected to attend this mass meet
ing. The sugar beet industry is
a very important factor in the
development of this great COM
mon wealth, and all of us should
take an active interest in aiding
to further the success of the prof
table growth of sugar beets in
this fertile beet raising section.
1t has been demonstrated clearly
that sugar factory is in absolute
need in order to provide adequate
facilities for the rapid handling
of the beets at harvest time. The
beet growers have been put to
considerable unnecessary expense
this season on account of being
unable to dispose Of their beets.

tions to pull them. Is it right
that the grower contend with
these conditions longere We say
NO in capital letters. The tine
is NOW to get busy and remedy
the matter. 1t can and will bel

this proposition.

One of the most unique and
elaborate social events which has
occurred in our city for some time
was that of the S. A. D. girls
club entertainment last Saturday
night. The invited guests were
the masculine "Mutts" who were
enticed to wend their way over
considerable territory on a sight

search of the place where the
stunt was to be held. Markers
we're placed at various residences

liant chaps in wearing out shoe
leather they finally landed at the
right place, where they were
greeted by the members of the s.
A. D. club wearing ''spook" cos
tunes, each wearing masks. Quite
a little amusement was had by the
boys in finding out who was
who." The boys we're we'll re-
paid for the trouble they had ex-
perienced, in the entertainment
which was afforded them after
they were comfortably situated in
the beautifully decorated S. A. d.
club rooms. Delicious refresh
ments were served by the girls
and royal good time was had by
all present. Truly, the S. A. d.
girls are a mysterious bunch and
very delightful entertainers.

BOTH ARRANGED
FOR SAME DATE

The Socialists had made ar
rangements for a public speaking
to be held at the court house Sat
urday night, Nov. 4, and also
arrangements were made for a
Mass meeting of all citizens in
this territory to be held at the
court house on Saturday night,
Nov. 4. Those who have charge
OF these respective meetings did
not know that the other meeting
had been arranged for until after
the two meetings had been ad-
vertised, and it was impossible
TO change the date of either meet
ing. These conflicting dates
made it a peculiar situation.
The committee in charge of the
meetings got busy and arrange
ments have been made SO that
the Socialist speaking will be
held at the court house first, COM
mencipg early and the sugar fac
tory Mass meeting will commence
Immediately afterward. Both
meetings will be entirely separate
and at different hours and not
conflicting with each other in
any way.

The Bargain Day held in Jules

Our city is directly benefitting by
