T. Eldon Allen

The Man who Has Raised the
county Judgeship to Place
of Distinction and Respecta-
bility, Whose Decisions Have
Been Just and Whose Word
is Law.
The county judxeship was the
little Joker" in county Office af-
fairs until it was raised by T. FL
don Allen after rescuing it from a
grafter's hands to place of dig
nifty and eminence.
Those who knew Allen were
satisfied he would come across
with the goods, and those who
didn't know him at the time he
went into that Office are now just
as earnest in their praise of the
man as county Judge as are his
best friends who did know him,
He got the Office first by ap-
pointment, and at the end of the
few months be served as an ap-
pdintee he gave such a creditable
account of himself that the people
put him back in with the largest
majority ever given county can
didate, Miss Gertrude johnson
only excepted.
He is now at the end of his
elective term. and asks your su,,-
port to second term to that Of
flee, which has come to be GUS
tomary and considered to be due
to an officer who has made good.
Judge Allen is enthusiastic for
a legal county normal, believes it
is an outrage to compel the
teachers to support their own
normal out Of their private funds
while the county's money for
that purpose is used to support a
normal outside the county, and if
elected promises to use his Off
cial influence, in conjunction with
the other democrati: candidates
lif elected, to secure IL Baca coun-
ty legal normal and thus keep
our money at home.
A vote for Allen would be a
vote to reward fair and impartial
decisions, a vote for a .egal nor,
NAL and to keep the ,Anty's
Money at home, and a vote tc
keep your taxes down by 80 do
ing. Please don't forget.

Thos. E. Barr
The Commissionership
And County Taxes.

We believe there is something
higher than mere party in the
support Of a man for county Of
flee, or indeed any Office.
Thos. E. Barr has served one
term a. commissioner, and frank
ness compelS us to say that b.
has made some enemies, as any
man will in that place who is
on watch against the unlocking
of the county treasury with skel-
eton keys-in shady bills.
But the county as a county has
no growl coming, and neither
have the people of the county
whose money he has saved by
standing untlinchingly against
ihe improper allowance of these
bills.
Whenever there was talk of
getting anything Of shady ma
fure or of doubtful propriety
past the commissioners, it got to
be a common saying, there's no
use to trv it-Barr won't stand
for it,
And yet Barr never stood in
the way Of the county's advance
ment or progress, within the
limit of the county's ability to
pay. When the commissioners
were asked to help out the coun-
ty fair, Barr said Eyes" without
any Hesitation: and when asked
to help out the county normal,
he again said yes" without a
moments hesitation-each un-
der the county's ability.
Another thing of Barr-he has
been acommlssioner of the whole
county, as against any section of
1t, he believing in working the
roads according to the travel, in
every part OF the county,
The teachers OF the county
and all tax payers should join in
solid phalanx for Barr andBaker
and Jent. Ii these gentlemen
are elected they will use their
every influence and energy to
secure to Baca county legal
normal, a thing that should have
been given to US two years ago.
T. E. Barr stands on his rec
lord, and that record is in the in
terest of the county progress,
and of those who have to pay
the taxes.
Vote tn keen v,,1r taxes down,
The Springfield herald., 1916-10-13

Baca county shuld have been
given a legal normal two years
ago. It's a shame for the coun-
ty to support a normal away
from home, and then compel the
teachers to support their own
normal. If the democratic cam
didates are elected they will work
unitedly for a legal normal and
will get it. Vote to keep your
n ormal money at home.

Miss Wanda McAdarn
A Fitting Successor To
Miss Gertrude Johnston

The democratic party of the
county owes debt of gratitude
and of appreciation to Miss Ger
trude for the economical manntr r
in which she has conducted
the affairs of the Office during
the four years she has served as
treasurer, and we believe at the
end of another four years it will
owe the same debt of gratitude
to Miss Wanda, for she is just as
sure of election and of reelection
as that she lives and the sun rises
and sets on those two eventful
days.
Miss Gertrude has shown the
treasurer's Office to be appropri-
ately a woman's place, as well as
showing that the democrats
made no mis- take in electing her
to the office.
Aside from the matter of it's
appropriateness, the democrats
were fortunate in selecting q
woman of exceptional ability and
jof a rare qualification for the
place this year.
Miss McAdam has had nor
NAL training, mercantile exper-
ience in two counties, and an ex-
perience in the pnblic schools of
the county-as in the case of
her worthy predecessor.
Besides having the necessary
peculiar qualifications for the
place, Miss Wanda, if elected,
will give to the Office her person
al attention, thus guaranteeing
the same efficient handling Of its
affairs as under Miss Gertrude.
In this matter the people feel
that they would like to elect the
one who will be in the Office, as
they know assuredly will be the
case if Miss McAdam is success
full.
There is one more thing of
Miss Wanda, as in the case of the
other candidates on the demo-
cratic ticket, she has pledged
her support for. a legal normal,
and being herself a school teach
er, she knows its great import
ance as factor in the education
al affairs of the county.

Congressman R9ating'S Letter

SVAoA SSsAAs~u -SA1A& .SesoS
Colonel Roosevelt, acting as
chief spokesman for Judge
Hughes, is putting a clean-cut
issue before the people of the
country.
There is no lodging, no eva
sion, so far as the Colonel is
concerned.
He declares that the Un-
tied States should have
gone to war with Germany
when the Lousitania was
sent to the bottom of the
sea.
President was a coward and a
poltroon when he adjus5e Ted that
affair by negotiation rather than
by force of arms, is the position
taken by the Colonel.
And Justice Hughes says
he endorses everything
MIR. Roosevelt says.
nder how many Of the
fathers and mothers believe
that their boys should have been
ordered to the trenches of Eu-
rope borruse of the louisiana
incident.
= President Wilson induced
Kaiser Wilhelm to abandon his
undersea warfare without firing
a shot. What more could Colo
mel Roosevelt have accomplished
by sending a million young men
into the Armies of England and
France?
That's a plain question. Ev-
cry voter should be able to sup
ply the answer.
People With Wilson
The fact that ninety percent of
the people OF this country heart
lily approve President Wilson's
course in keeping this country
out of war. The sentiment is
just as strong among republicans
and progressives as among dem
ocrats.
The more Hughes and Roose-
velt denounce Wilson'S foreign
policy the more certain it be-
comes that Wilson'S victory in
November will be landslide.
We will not be able to get let
tiers in the paper that get here
later than Tuesday. All letters
should be here Saturdays or
Mondays.
