HARTMAN FIELD DAY
Five Thousand People Enjoy Big Hol-
iday at Enterprising Little City

The little city Of Hartman celebrat-
ed their annual Field Day last Friday
and it was estimated that there were
five thousand people in the big crowd
that enjoyed the days program. The
trains brought in many people and
hundreds of auto loads came in all
through the morning. The program Of
races and sports was one Of the best
ever given in the valley. The Wichita
Girls Band furnished the music for
the occasion and won the highest
praise from all who heard them. The
ball game between the specially
strengthened Holly and Hartman
teams was one of the best ever seen
in the county The final score was
to 4, and it was won by Hartman in
the tenth inning by three Dagger hit
of Bud Littler. One of the extra fea-
lures was an attack by indians on an
emigrant train and capture Of a fair
maiden who was afterwards rescued
by the cowboys. This thrilling fea-
ture was put on in most realistic fash
ion. A big program of races of all
kinds was also given and wild west
sports. There was a big dance at
night and all the guests went away
loudly praising the hospitable people
Of Hartman and Chairman Floyd Will
son and the committee that had charge
of the big event.

The republican assembly for the
Legislative district composed Of the
counties Of Baca and Prowers was
held at the court house in Lamar last
Friday afternoon. 1t was called to
order by the chairman, Doc Emerson,
Of Baca county, and J. A. Downing
was elected Chairman and NJ. J. Nc
Millin secretary. The names Of N.
Conner Jones of Baca county anad
Allyn Cole CT Prowors county were
placed before the assembly and the
vote resulted in each receiving enough
votes to go on the ballot for the pri-
mary election. Beth are good repub-
leans and capable men for the posi-
ton and the party is assured Of a
splendid candidate in any event. There
was general regret expressed by re-
publicans from all over the district
that Hon. Ray MeGrath, who so ably
represented the district in the present
assembly, absolutely refused to permit
his name to be used again. His un-
animous nomination and election were
assured, but the press OF his business
interests necessitated his retirement,
and he announced some weeks ago
that he would no again be a candI-
date. Mr.. McGrath retires with the
highest respect of his constituents OF
all political faiths.

Why Colorado Wants You

through its commissioner, j. H. Jen-

giving an up-to-date map Of Colorado
and a general write up Of its advan-

ments to new settlers end investors.
1t has been compiled with care, is neat
and attractive, and will be circulated
in large quantities throughout the
east. The board intends to make the
most advantageous use possible of
the small appropriation which they
succeeded after hard work in getting
for the purpose of promoting the ad-
vertising Of the states advantages.

Lieut.. Byrnes Home

Lieut. H. C. Byrncs of Co. d is home
fer a weeks furlough unless the COM
pany is sooner ordered to the front.
He reports the entire company in
splendid condition both physically and
fer military efficiency. He is quite
anxious to secure ten or fifteen more
recruits from Prowcrs county so that
when ordered to the front Co. D will
have full quota of men all from Prov
crs county and not have to draw on
other places as all the other companies
have done. The boys have in every
test proved themselves the most eff
ficient and best drilled company in the
state guard, and are placed as the
advance guard for all important move
mcnts and drills. It looks now as if
a new battalion will be organized and
If this is done the officers of Co. d
will be restored to their rightful rank.
Lamar and Prowcrs county have every
reason to be proud of Co. d and the
showing so far made and it is hoped
that the necessary recruits can be
secured to make it an entire home
company on war footing. The orders
TO go to the front have been held up
temporarily but if the danger Of
railroad strike is avcrted they will
probably go at once.

School Books Here

The school books used in the city
schools and in many of the rural
schools, especially in the union high
school district, are on the shelves at
the high school building and may be
secured at any time between s a. m.
and p. m. on week days until the
school begins. Most of the school dis
tricts preparing students for the La
mar high school use these books which
are almost uniformly used at this
time in Lamar trade territory. Sec
ond hand books are bought and sold
at low prices, and new books are sold
at cost plus ten per cent which pays
for freight and for the necessary help
in the book store in the high school.

Mrs. ]. A. Mcdowell Dies

At 9 o'clock on Wednesday morning
Mrs. ]. A. Mcdowell, who has been
seriously ill for several weeks, passed
away at the family residence on South
First street. She came to Colorado
from Pennsylvania with her husband
over thirty-fve years ago and set
tied near where Lamar now is, and
has been a resident of this vicinity
ever since. She was well known to
all old timers in the valley and to all
citizens of Lamar as noble christian
woman, loving wife and mother and
kind neighbor. She endured all the
hardships of the earliest pioneers of
the west. She raised family of one
son, Harry H. Mcdowell, and three
daughters, Mrs. w. A. Leonard, Mrs.

ern Colorado Breaking Long
Dry Siege

This section of Colorado has been
dry-not only politically, but physical
ly, geologically, agriculturally, and
any old way you may wish to call it.
In fact since the first of last Septem-
Der there has not been enough mois-
ure fallen in most sections to start
weeds even to growing. Sunday, how
ever, change came and the clouds
were actually able to squeeze out a
few drops of moisture, and after once
starting the good work have followed
it up daily until the whole southeast
ern Colorado has been given a good
bath and is coming out clean and
green. While it is too late to be of
much benefit to dry land crops yet it
will insure good pasture for the win
ter and be of material help to such
crops Of feed as had not entirely burn
ed out. The period of twelve months
from the first of last September will
certainly make a new record for dry
ness in this section, just as the pre-
vious twelve months made one for
high average moisture. The tempera-
ture has been very materially improv-
ed by the return of old ]. Pluvius

REPUBLICAN TICKET
MIR. Stocker's Stand

Allison Stockcr, our present state
treasurer and until last week a can
didate for governor, seconded the NOM
nation Of Governor Carlson in u
speech which was easily the most
striking event of the state republican
assembly. Realizing the fight that
was being made on Governor Carlson
was in reality fight on the laws to
enforce the prohibition amendment
voted by the people Of the state, and
that no good could possibly come out
Of the Denver bunch that was fight
ing him, Mr.. Stocker with rare party
loyalty decided to lay aside his per
sonal ambition and lend his influence
and help to the cause Of maintaining
the integrity and success of the party,
and to this end is now heartily sup
porting the primary campaign Of
Governor Carlson. 1t not only means
much for the governor but will also
mean much in the future for Mr..
Stocker, as the rank and file Of the
party will show their appreciation Of
his act.
