as city attorney of Delta, Colo. yet
look after his own farm interests.
with bit of an eye to the welfare of
his neighbors and his home commun-
ity, must be one of wide vision. Such
is the record of Henry Baird. He
would carry that record to Congress.
where he would prove himself famil-
lar with every phase of the Western
slope which he loves; its ambitions,
its uplift and commercial betterment.
Baird. was born Sept. 5. 1864. at
Lewis, Iowa. For the past eleven
years he has been a resident of Delta.
Graduated at the State University of
Iowa in 1892, yet raised on farm, he
has been successful in obtaining some
farm interests near Delta to which he
gives much of his time out of sheer
love of agriculture. He is married and
has one daughter. and his record in
the Delta city attorneys office is am
pie evidence of the excellent mark he
would set if sent to higher things.
The Western slope is essentially a
small farmer. cattleman's and fruit
growers land. Baird knows the needs
of the men engaged in these occupa-
tions. He knows how Congress can
help them. and he would make Con-
gress help them. At the same time
the Western slope is dotted with pros
porous cities and towns, the various
ambitions of which he would assist to
promote.
He has been known as builder and
booster. not perpetual seeker after
office. Though he has always been
active in politics. the activity has
come from a desire for civic and COM
munal betterment and from a wish to
help the other fellow rather than him.
self. These attributes have brought
to Henry J. Baird a host of friends
who are working for his candidacy in
the belief that he is the one Western
slope man who can help the Western
slope In the halls OF national legisla-
ton.

Occasionally there comes man
who believes in the wholesome back

combine such beliefs with a thorough
knowledge of city and town life, and
the needs OF city and town men and

Fourth Colorado district, is such q
man, and, if elected. every section and
varied pursuit of his district will re-

efforts. Likewise the people seem to
