Proven, County for Carlson.

Governor Carlson recently made a
tour OF Bent. Prowers and Baca
counties. and everywhere was given
an enthusiastic reception. In sum
ming up the tour the Lamar Regis
ter says:
The governor made a splendid
impression everywhere that he spoke
as the people admire his outspoken
and fearless stand on all questions
that have come before him and the
fact that he makes no attempt TO
dodge responsibility for any OF his
acts. In two years his administra-
tion has brought the state from a
condition bordering on anarchy and
restored II TO law and order where
every law is enforced and respected
| The people OF the state realize this
fact and regardless OF party differ
ences and other questions they win
stand by the governor who has
brought abou, these things. When
primary day rolls around Governor
Carlson will be re-nominated with
many votes to spar-, and the Noyem-
ber election will again snow him far
in the lead"

mature crops, handled through the
silo and fed to dairy cows have a
wonderful cash value return In the

the farm labor and disposes OF the

here have just been waiting for the

There are no feeds more desirable.

there was apparently no limit.
 If the bettor wanted to place $50,- 900 on a. horse he would order 50 boxes of red, white or blue matches, the color depending on the position to bet on the horses. viz: red, straight; blue, place; white, show. Condition of track was described as follows: Dry, oats; muddy, corn: medium, rye. If all these elaborate systems were not enough to beguile the victims, the fake newspaper clipping was flashed. The headlines of this article stated that a younger eastern plunger clean ed up $S0,00O from Seattle, Wash, Ioolrooms. Identity of man not known to local gambling fraternity" The story then went on that all eff forts to get information from him had been fruitless. He had never lost a bet
 Here it was, according to the de- partment of justice officials here to- day, that Donahue broke into the game. He would claim to be the mysterious stranger from the east.
 According to the federal officials today. here are some of the things done by the syndicate: They fleeced a multi-millionaire of New York out of s40,0O0 by threatening him with arrest for alleged violation of the Mann act, two of the members of the syndicate impersonating secret scr vice agents for that purpose. They frightened wealthy Philadelphia woman who had been too friendly with stranger in a cafe into giving them S35,000,
 | They took $1O,OOO from each of five Chicagoans, two of whom are wom- en. They brought about their own arrest by alegedly taking s3,500 from Miss Regina Clipper, of Phila- delphia, and -afterward kidnapping her.
 It was said today that the organ ization had worked as a whole since the first of tine year and it is believed to have cleaned up in that time $1,- 0O0,0O0. The government officials say that for one known victim of the syndicate there are probably 20 unknown.
 The eight members of the syndi- cate so-called, were still in custody today, awaiting their preliminary hearing before the United States Commissioner tomorrow It was )said the alleged head of the organization would be arrested during today.

Chicago, Sept. 1S-Further arrests were expected today in connection with the so-called blackmail syndicate which raids by United States depart ment of justice officials here Saturday night exposed. A woman member of the syndicate" was believed to be in St. Louis and the Los Angeles authori- ties were asked to locate the sender of telegram addressed to Helen Evers, one of the women arrested here, which read:
 simon says thumbs up. Two men are holding me. Watch the fire escape.'
 Operations of the syndicate, which now appears to have been internation- al proportions, were not confined to the blackmail of wealthy men and wo- men. according to information devel- loped today. Among the effects in the office of Doc Edward Donahue, one of the men caught in the Saturday night raid, was stationery of the quarters in New York and offices all over the world" There were also cipher codes for deciphering messages received by wire telling what horses to be on, how much to bet what races and positions to play.
 Fake newspaper clipping detailing the wonderful clean ups made by a young eastern plunger in poolrooms, apparently had been used, to lure vic tims. A letter found in Donahue's rooms at the fashionable Southside apartment house, was from. the "Horsemen's Association" of 146s Market street, Louisville, Ky, signed by J. c. Saulzbury, secretary and ad- dressed to A. T. Kartner The secre- tary said he was sorry to, hear of ''Mr Kartner's notoriety lately and hoped he wouldn't have another occurrence like that again.
 It seemed that "Mr. Kartner's pic ture had appeared in a newspaper ir connection with bookmaking activities at the races! According to department of justice officials here today, the United Turf Exchange" must have been an exclu. sive affair. The rules stated that mem. bers using the clubrooms in the even. ing must appear in full dress. Evi- dently the "horsemen's association was in Louisville in grain brokerage house.

MIR. HUGHES GERMAN ALLIES

Mir Hughes's enthusiasm over the results of the Maine election is cold and clammy in comparison with the ecstacy of the German newspapers.
 Their confidence in the success of their candidate knows no bounds. It is measured only by their confidence in the power of the German vote.
 The Cincinnati Volksblatt says:
 To be certain of victory in No vember Wilson must conquer New York and Illinois. But this hope he might just as well give up, be- cause in these two states the aver sion against his policy is far great CT than in Maine. In both these states an element will show its hands which did not enter into question in Maine, and this ele- ment is the German voters, who will never pardon Wilson for his unneutral and un-American policy. According to the Illinois, Staats-Zei- tung: ~
 The present administration knows that it's days are numbered.
 And further:
 All indications are to the effect that the Democrats will experience some serious surprises within their own camps even in the southern states, which have had to suffer es- pecially because of Wilson's friend- ship with Great Britain, and which are embittered against him because he succeeded in whipping through Congress the Child-Labor Law for his personal, campaign advantage. The Volksblaat und Freiheitsfreund of Pittsburgh feels that
 The result of the election in Maine gives us a strong present. ment of the greatness of the Re- publican victory in November.
 But no other western German news paper goes so far in attacking MT. Wilson as the Illinois Staats-Zeitung which unhesitating brands the Presi- dent as the most dangerous enemy of
