NoRTHUp DECLINES
FOR representative
RAYMER MAN WITHDREW FROM
RACE FOR DEMOCRATIC
NOMINATION.

From the Weld County News we
CLEAN the following which appeared
In recent. issue OF that paper.
II. II. Northup Of New Raymer,
designated by the Weld county DEM
oeratic assembly for representative
has decided not to file his accep-
tance and writes the News to explain
the situation to the voters. 1t fur
ther appears from Mr.. Northup's let
ter that the News is not the only
doubter in Weld county of the good
intent and practicability OF non-par-
tisan league doctrine.
Mr.. Northup's letter as follows.
ITO the Weld County News,
Greeley Colorado.
II wish to. announce thru the col
umns of your paper. to the Demo-
Gratis Of Weld County, that | have de-
cided not to become candidate on
the primary ticket for Representa-
tive. therefore | have not qualified,
and while fully appreciating the ef-
forts Of my friends to have me as
one OF the candidates, | feel that as
there are good men on the ticket.
and as this part of Weld county will
be represented in the field, ! believe
II for the best interest OF the party
and to insure harmony and united ef-
fort for the entire ticket, to not al
low myself to be a candidate at this
time.
| learn from the opposition party
that there has been circulated a re-
port that | had refused to qualify as
candidate on the Democratic ticket,
expecting to be the partisan
candidate. This is false, as | was
asked before the Democratic assem-
bly, was called, to be the Non-parti-
san candidate. which | refused, as |
was Democrat and was not ready
to forsake the party to follow the
teachings Of false prophets.
Respectfully,
III. H. NORTHUP."

COUNTING JUDGES FOR
RAYMER PRECINCT

The election judges this year will
get some relief from the long tedious
job OF counting the ballots on elec-
tion night.
There is provision that In the lar,
ger precincts counting judges may
be appointed to assist In counting the
ballots. The regular election judges
conduct the election in the same way
as before. but two ballot boxes are
provided and at the end OF the first
hour the first box is taken by the
counting board while the second box
is then used for the reception Of votes.
The counting board commences
counting at once. but are not to re-
veal results until the polls close.
The boxes are changed every hour
and in this way the work OF count
ing keeps very closely up to the bal
lots as deposited and results should
be known quite soon after the polls
close. .. .-.7
1t costs but little more, for the
time OF the other judges will be
shortened, while 1t will cut down
the late heart breaking work Of
counting until nearly daylight and
sometimes much longer.
The counting judges for this pre-
cinct are A. G. Nickerson, Chas.
Scott and A. B. Allen.

would like to see q general discus
sion Of the mater. Perhaps the
change In sentiment is not 80 great
as we think It Is. but the few express
sions we have heard, cause us to be-
lieye that the majority sentiment is
in accord with our conclusions.
We have heard some Of the strong
est opponents Of the movement In
Gfeeley. say that II we would wait
until the war was over they would
Join with us, drop their opposition
and even urge the matter. II they
are sincere, we would regard It as
worth sacrifice to wait for that time
to come.
We admit that we hardly expect
we could realize such hope. Some
opposition might cease. but other
objectors would take their place, for
while we formerly proposed to take
only about one e-twelth OF the taxable
value Of the county, we would
now take about one tenth. and at
the present ratio OF increase. when
the time comes to crowd the move
ment again. we will have about one
eighth.

Food Conservation Meeting

Al a well attended meeting
at the Methodist church last
Sunday afternoon, the question
of Food Conservation was ably
discussed by Miss Minnie Zeuch,
Messrs. F. j. Sager, Rev. Lew
elling and H. B. Hamilton.
Considering the fact that we
must supply the Allies with pro
visions or some time to come, it
is highly necessary that we con'
serve food in every manner pos
sible. These facts the speakers
impressed upon the minds of
their hearers, and the meeting
on the whole was very success
ful.

Grazing Fees and Permits

albuquerque, N. NJ. Dec. a,
1918. Notice has been received
at albuquerque by the District
Forester, that the question of
changes for grazing privileges
on the National Forests during
the next five years has been def
initely decided by the Secretary
of Agriculture. The grazing fees
will be uniform on all of the For
ests of New Mexico and Arizona
and will not be subject to change
before the end of the five year
period beginning Jan. |, 1919.
The yearlong rates on the diff
ferent classes of stock will be as
follows. Cattle $l.0O, horses
81 25, sheep and goats 25c and
swine Toe.
At the same time the new
rates become effective, a wider
extension of the five year per-
init will be authorized than here.
tofore. Such a permit will not be
subject to reduction before the
end of the period for which it
is issued except as may be re-
CURED for forest protection.
Stockmen with small outfits, who
are regular users of the Forests,
will be given the preference in
granting the long term permits,
but, after their needs are provid-
ed for, larger permittees will
be considered for as many stock
as the range will safely carry.
Forest officials believe that the
bulk of the grazing business
upon the National Forests will
soon be handled upon the long
term basis and predict a more
stable and satisfactory condition
of the stock industry as a result.

PLAN CHANGES
IN UNIFORMS
War Department viii Adopt Soft
Collars for Starched Chokers,
According to Recon-
mendations.

Rumors which have persisted for
some time that radical changes In the
uniforms OF the United States army
officers and enlisted men are being
planned by officers of the equipment
division Of the army war college, to-
day were admitted to be true by men
high in the war department, says the
Washington Times.
The changes, it is said, will include
the elimination of shoulder straps and
other distinctly military appurten-
ances and the adoption of the English
style roll collar in place Of the
''Choker" collar now worn.
In the interest Of economy the fac
ing will be eliminated from the service
coats and the lining will run to the
edge instead. No canvas will be used
in the coats and the patch pockets
will be done away with, a regular
pocket with a flap covering taking its
place.
General Pershing several months
ago recommended the adoption Of the
unstiffened roll collar after the STYLE
of the British uniform. the substitu
ton of spiral cloth puttees for the
canvas leggings now In use, and
other changes in the uniforms of the
American soldiers.
A board OF officers at the army war
college have since been working on
the problem and il is understood that
within a short time official announce
ment will be made of the details OF
their decision.
