TWO COI1ONELS FOR WILSON

Col. George Harvey, who once up- on a time was styled George Erin ton Mcclellan Harvey" and Marse Henri, who once upon a time was styled "Col Henry Watterson," are both out for the re-nomination and reelection of President Wilson. This recalls the many vicissitudes of the friendship of these great journalists and grand old cronies for MT. Wilson. Both picked Wilson for the nomina- tion and election long before the Re- publican debacle of 1912-in fact, Col. Harvey, formerly George Erin ton, etc., was the "original' Wilson Man, Both quarreled with him before the Baltimore convention. Both of them "came back" and supported him for the election, though in sort of aristocratic and stiff-necked fash ion. Both made up with him and be- came "chummy" guests at the White House. Then both fussed a good deal over various administration policies, and acted like men who were ready for another quarrel with their early love. Then both "came back" again, and have picked him for a second term in the White House.
 However, both Colonels are pretty good Americans, and both have great f0ndness for politics and like to pick Vinners.-Juneau Empire.

CIDER MAY NOT BE BARRED

DR.. John Hosking received rather
lengthy letter yesterday morning from
Governor George A. Carlson on the
matter of the prohibition law conflict
ing with the manufacture of cider in
Colorado. Dr. Hosking wrote to the
governor at the request of Mr.. Latimer
to ask that the production of sweet
cider be allowed that it was not in
opposition to the prohibition law.
The governor in his letter states that
as soon as the state chemist has decided
by exhaustive tests that cider with tho
preservatives used, remains sweet and
pure, the sale of sweet cider will in no
wise be restricted and that, having the
interests of Grand valleys apple grow
ers greatly at heart, he wishes to do all
in his power to preserve the cider in
dustry as long as the product is noa-
intoxicating.
Governor Carlson says in the letter
that he feels that Attorney General
Farrar's opinion on the matter has
been exaggerated or is mistaken one.
The letter in every way gives great
hopes for the preservation of this de-
pendable business on the western slope,
which has become quite an important
asset to the city.-Grand Junction

Where there's less of reaping and more
of sowing,
That's where the East begins.
Out where the folks are always taking,
Where countless hearts with despair are
aching,
That s where the East begins.
Where there's less of singing and more
of signing,
Where there's less of giving and more
of buying,
And a man has no friends after years
of trying,
That's where the East begins.
