LAST RESORT
Vile SANDERS and Petty Gossip Chic.
Weapons of Some Of the Local
Candidates

As the campaign draws to a close
the friends Of certain democratic To-
cal candidates have reso-ted To the
most malicious and vile tactics ever
brought into Prowers county politics.
They have started out with a house to
house campaign of lying vilification
and nothing is too far from the truth
for ther use. Some Of the talebear-
ers sJhmit they have lived here a few
weeks and yet they have the mendac-
lily TO peddle all kinds Of petty gossip
about men and women who have lived
in the community and been respected
citizens for as many years as the
gossips have lived weeks here. They
know these lies will have no weight
with the long time residents of the
county, who have known the candi-
dates for years, but they hope to
leave an impression on the newer
voters. The latter should be warned
that if there was any truth in these
reports they would not have been
withheld until the last week Of the
campaign, but would have been in cir
culation long ago. The republican
committee has had some very direct
dope backed by afiidavits offered them
in regard TO some candidates ON the
opposition ticket, but relying on the
high character and well known in
tegrity Of the men and women on the
republican ticket they have refused to
enter into any such campaign, and
believe the voters of the county will
repudiate Islander as a campaign wea-
pom. Men and women, who have no
personal interest in Prowers county,
some Of whom have not lived here
long enough to be voters and others
who are preparing 20 leave as soon as
election day is over, are walking the
streets Of Lamar stopping at each
home to Witty candidates on the re-
publican ticket and some are even
going to the other towns Of the coun-
ty on the same errand.

human barbarities and cries of dis
tress that have come to US from the
thousands of helpless Americans and
millions of miserable, starving ma
tives in unhappy Mexico, has no claim
on the votes or respect of the chris
tan womanhood of America. They
recognize that brave and patriotic
notes sent to foreign powers, followed
by private assurances that the warn
ings were not to be taken literally,
but were meant to satisfy his indig-
nant countrymen are an insult to the
patriotism of the country and dis
grace to the government.
Colorado is no longer in the doubt
full column. 1t is confidently believed
that Governor Carlson will be re-elect-
ed by 10000 plurality, and if the anti
Wilson sentiment keeps growing as it
has the last ten days Hughes is likely
to run away ahead of the Governor.

Capitol Correspondence

As the campaign draws to a close
three things stand out with startling
distinctness. One is that prohibition
has come to stay. No political party
and no organization Of responsible
men, business, social or political,
anywhere in the state, are urging
or even suggesting its repeal. 1t has
been an unqualified success and this
due not only to the splendid way in
which our citizens generally have ac-
cepted its provisions, but also TO the
common-sense, impartial and tactfull
way in which it has been enforced by
the state authorities.
For this successful administration
it is admitted Governor Carlson de-
serves supreme credit, and the way
voters are rallying to his support in
dicates that the people are not willing
as yet TO trust the continued enforce
msnt of this law to a party that two
years ago declared against it.
The second outstanding fact is that
the industrial peace and material
prosperity the state is now enjoying
is in such marked contrast to the
disturbances and anarchy that pre-
vailed during the previous six years
of democratic misrule, that no man or
woman with a memory that extends
back this far is willing to run the
risk of a relapse into former condi-
lions. The forces behind the demo-
cratic candidates, and that control
the party's policies are identically the
same as they were during the Shat
roth and Ammons administrations,
and should The democratic ticket be
elected every labor agitator and trea-
son meter and bootlegger in the state
would rejoice and properly consider
they had received a license to renew
their devlish work.
The third outstanding fact is that
during the last ten days the tide has
turned strongly against President
Wilson.
There is no use denying that a
month ago republican leaders were
seriously alarmed at reports of de-
lection, especially on the part of
women voters, influenced by the spe-
cious plea that Wilson had kept us
out of war. Colonel Roosevelt's IN
answerable arguments on this subject
and his appeal to womanhood to place
duty before safety have soaked in and
produced a revolution of feeling that
is very likely to turn into landslide
before the 18th of November The
good women of Colorado realize that
a president who will deliberately close
his eyes and stop his ears to the in

Heard at the National Capital

Washington, Nov /. Especial Cor
respondence) The chief Of the bu-
reau Of foreign and domestic COM
merce who is doing everything he can
to supply statistics to bolster up the
Wilson administration has issued a
statement predicting that European
countries will need billion dollars
worth of lumber the first year after
the war. Here we have once more an
evidence that continued prosperity un-
der a democratic administration de-
ponds upon the devastation that has
taken place in Europe. Under re-
publican economic policies it is not
necessary TO base our hope of contin-
ued business activity upon the mis-
fortunes of any other nation.

pawned in a second hand store, it is
remarked that the efficiency Of the

cabinet officers preside increages with

or democratic-bu it is fair test to
note the comparative registration in
the wards and other political units
where there is normal republican
or democratic majority. In the large
cities it is happening invariably that
the registration in the big republican
wards is much heavier than in the
wards which are strongly democratic.
The same thing is noticeable in the
towns, also. New York and Illinois,
in particular, are showing this-and
New York and Illinois, with "a cleo
toral votes between them, are highly
essential states in this year Of poll
teal significance.
L. c. Coumbe of North Yakima,
Washington, was 1T the national cap
ital recently. Ned says the people OF
his state have heard so much about
this Wilsonian prosperity, and have
experienced so little of it, that they
have concluded it is what Woodrow
would call a psychological prosper
ity." But he adds that there will be
nothing psychological about the vote
which Washington casts for Hughes.
The Lamar register. [volume] (Lamar, Colo.) 1889-1952, 1916-11-01

In an effort to create the impression
that business men favor the re-elec-
ton of Woodrow Wilson, the demo-
cratic press is making great display
of the announcements Of two or three
railroad presidents that they will vote
for the democratic president. It should
be remembered, however, that these
men are and have been all their lives
staunch democrats. There is nothing
new or surprising in the fact that they
will support Woodrow Wilson in 1916.
The Lamar register. [volume] (Lamar, Colo.) 1889-1952, 1916-11-01

On October 10, Secretary Of the
Treasury McAdoo issued his daily
statement showing aomng other things
that during the first 10 working day.
Of October the administration collect
ed revenues to the amount Of $780,
1896, 900 and spent S57,1S9,OOO thus
spending SIS 100000 more than it
took in. That is certainly "going
some" for an administration that was
elected on a pledge Of economy.

Registration, in those states which
require It, shows no sign Of recession
in the republican tide. The primaries
have invariably disclosed a larger in
terest and a far greater vote on the
republican side than on the demo-
cratic, and the registration still fur

the parties. OF course, in some of the

AS soon as she was out In the street
she turned southwark Involuntary,
and set off toward the establishment of
Adoree Demorest.
Mrs. knight dried her eyes and be-
gan to dress herself carefully, prepare
tory to a journey into the Wall street
section of the city, for the hour was
drawing on toward three o'clock.
Meanwhile Jim, having transacted
bis business at Goldberg's Office, sought
a more familiar haunt on one of the
side streets among the forties. Here,
just off Broadway, was famous bar
Der shop-a spotless place, with white
interior and tiled walls. Six Italians
In stiff duck coats practiced their arts
at a row of well-equipped chairs. A
wasp-waisted girl sat at the manicure
table next the front windows. AS Jim
entered she was holding the hand of
jaded person in light-gray suit, and
murmuring over it with an occasional
upward glance from pair of bold
dark eyes. "Tony the Barber" en-
gagged in administering a shampoo,
nodded at Jim, and from force of
habit murmured politely: Next!
Then, with meaning glance, he indi-
Gated q door at the rear of the shop.
In the third chair Jim recognized Max
Melcher, although the face Of the sport
ing man was swathed in steaming
cloths.
Jim passed on and into reer room,
where he found three men seated at a
felt-covered table. They were well
dressed, quiet persons-one a book
maker whom the racing laws had re-
duced from affluence to comparative
penury; another, tall, pallid youth
with bullying eyes. The third occupant
of the room was an ex-lightweight
champion of the ring, Young Sullivan
by name. His trim waist and power

Wharton explained further. ''The

Thanks to-JimT Lorelei raised
her brows.
Pope turned to young Knight and
said, politely, "That is my foot you are
stamping on"
Ignoring Jim's mute appeal, Whar-
ton ran on. smilingly: Gle promised to
shackle you to a table until I could
stammer out my hating apologies, and

Jim's appearance when he entered
the dressing room that night was a sur
prise; he was clad in faultless evening
attire.
"Why the barbaric splendor? in
quired Lorelei. "Do you want me to
dress, too?"
"Sure thing. Look your best, and
make me think I'm regular john

night" she told him, after they had
gossiped for moment. II don't like
the way he talked. He thinks he owns

Palace Garden"
There's my contract: he can dis
charge me, you know, but 1 can't
quit-that's one of the peculiarities of

"a brother Is a handy thing, once
in a while, but for everyday use you
need steady with a kick in each
mitt," suggested Jim.
II wish you would punch him."
"Who? Me? And go joy-riding with
a square-toe? Nix. I'm too refined.
