ton. as they claim, is on the other
side and for the other fellow at pres
ent.
The farmers have centered on Mr..
Broadbent as their candidate. They
are not to be censured for the stand
they have taken in seeking represent
alton, and in their first move in this
district to gain for themselves what
they believe to be the thing they are
entitled to. they have selected, with
out a doubt, one of the most able
men in the district, and one OF the
best and fairest-minded men among
their members.
II the League is wrong; II It is
what some charge it is, they can at
least feel relieved to know that the
League has not put up man who is
dangerous. People of Crowley coun-
ty know Mr.. Broadbent too well to
ever fear legislation at his hand which
would be bolshevism. He will, as he
stated. represent his constituents, but
we all know the class of men who are
his constituents are too patriotic a
lot of American citizens to ask him
to do anything other than what is
fair. In the past in Crowley county
he has looked after the interests OF
the farmers in very satisfactory
manner to them and without criticism
from the opposition. Knowing Mr..
Broadbent as we do we can truthfully
say that IL the League as a whole is
as good as its legislative candidate
it Is not SO bad.

O. H. GRIFFITH

o. II. Griffith is candidate for
the office of county commissioner
from the First Commissioner district
-Olney Springs and Crowley,
Mr.. Griffith was not an aspirant
for the place but scores of his friends
placed him on the ticket by giving
him a handsome vote at the primary
election. Mr.. Griffith preferred not
to enter the race but because of the
complimentary vote given him and
because of the urgent requests made
by both Democrats and Republicans
he decided to allow his name to go
before the people in this coming cleo
tion.
Mr.. Griffith is not a politician. He
is farmer and a prosperous farmer
at that--one of the best in Crowley
county. Being a good farmer he will
be a good commissioner. He is up
for the first time for any public Of
flee. His opponent is after the place
for the THIRD time. There will be no
desire for perpetual ofiice-holding on
the part of Mr.. Griffith for that is
not his nature. He is farmer and
for any other office he would not
have consented to run, because of his
farm business.
Mr.. Griffith is one of the cleanest
men in Crowley county. He is a
home-builder, and his ranch, located
adjoining Crowley on the south, is an
appealing place. No man who knows
Griffith can say one thing against
him, but friend or foe, he will have
good words for him.
Mr.. Griffith should be elected Coun-
ty Commissioner. The county and
everything else for that matter. is
benefited by change once in awhile.
and this change will be beneficial.

FARMERS HEARD FROM

In last weeks issue appeared
signed statement by VIM. Broadbent,
the Independent nominee of the Nom
Partisan League, of Crowley and
Otero counties. 1t was sincere
statement made to the people of this
legislative district. The farmers seek
representation in our legislative body
and they hope to be successful in
securing this representation.
The New Era knows but little about
the Non-Partisan League. We have
heard a lot and In what we have
heard we have gathered both con-
demnation and praise. Charges made
against the League may be true or
they may be false, and time only will
tell. We hope that the League is
every jot and little of what the farm
ers claim for 1t and what they believe
1t to be. II 1t is not leave it to the
farmer himself and he will take the
situation by the horns and with little
delay and little fuss, rid himself of it,
The farmers of this county are sin
cere in their desire to have represent
alton and they should have their fair
share of 1t. However. 1t would be
just as much of wrong to have
representation switched to the un-
balanced state in their favor as 1t is
wrong that the legislative representa-

would seem that this being the case
that the shipping points in Crowley
county would be taken care OF in
every way and in a most satisfactory
manner. but such does not always
prove to be the case. For the past
month or six weeks shippers have
been asking for cars. They have. al
most, been pleading for cars, but to
no avail. So serious became the situ-
alton that one day last week a protest
was made to the Director General of
Railways, and to tie State Council
OF Defense and to the Public Utilities
Commission. It was not long until
representative OF the commission
was here on the scene to investigate
and now It is hoped, and to be ex-
pected, that relief is at hand.

GIVE HOGS MINERAL

Furnish your hogs with mineral
in some form. says P. X. Heerwagen,
specialist at the State Agricultural
College. 1t is essential for the main
tenance of their bodies. Hogs need
mineral to facilitate digestion and
produce bone. The following mix
ture is especially good for hogs in
that it furnishes salt and at the same
time rids- animals of worms.
l bushel soft coal.
1 bushel ashes.
s pounds salt.
a pounds sulphur.
pounds air Stacked lime.
2 pounds copperas.
Mix all the ingredients except the
copperas. Dissolve the copperas in a
quart of warm water and add to the
mixture. This mixture should be
kept before the hogs at all times. A
self-feeder compartment or trough
can be used for this purpose.

RHINE's FITNESS

In last weeks issue of the New
Era r.. +. Rhine, the Republican
nominee for the Office of County Sup
efintendent. made statement to the
people of Crowley county. In 1t he
set forth few facts to let the people
know who he is and where he came
from, and something as to his quail
ffcations for the position of superin-
tendent. The statement was modest
one to the extreme considering the
fact that he desired to get his whom
ness" and "whyness" before the peo-
pie. There are few, indeed, who
could have done 1t so nicely and on
every hand were expressions from
people who read It that 1t was a
mighty fine statement.
Mr.. Rhine is most capable man
for the Office of superintendent. He
has Ind years of experience and his
qualifications are such as will give
Crowley county an admirable official.
He has been a resident of Colorado
and Crowley county long enough to
make n wide acquaintance, and the
better one knows him the better one
likes him. and the more they see in
him that will be beneficial for the
schools.
A mans past record, his past ex-
periences and his willingness to al
as his best recommendations. Mr..
Rhine is a school man. That has
been his profession, and voters of
Crowley county will make no mistake
when they vote for him.

KEEP THE cows

The cattle man In the west who
by hook or crook can hold on to his
cows until the war is over and the
industry returns to normal, is the
man who is going to be in position
to make good money. With the close
of the war 1t Is expected that the
government will cease to longer at
tempt to handle the market situation
an dthe markets will return to normal
condition where the law of supply
and demand governs. There unques-
tionably has been a heavy liquidation
of breeding cattle and there can be
but one result. They will be scarce
and high next spring.
The Denver Record-Stockman of
last week says: Tho great breeding
grounds of the southwest are denud-
ed because OF the drouth and the
ranges of the north have been de-
plcted because of high feed and the
uncertainties of the situation. We
can see nothing for the future but
high prices, with perhaps tempor-
ary slump now and then due to war
conditions and peace. With the re-
construction time will come a gradual
return to normal conditions and while
prices may find somewhat lower
level, with lower prices for feed and
more stable conditions. the COW will
prove more profitable than during
the unsettled hysterical situation of
the past two or three years.
1t must be remembered that with
peace conditions there will surely be
more or less of demand for cattle
to replentish the herds of France.
Belgium and Germany and Austria.
1t is probable also that Russia will
have to have some assistance in this
direction, and as this country is about
the only one where healthy cattle
can be had, there is little danger of
any surplus for some years to come
The man who holds tight to his breed
ing stock need not fear the future
/ The lamentations of the postwar
market need have no terrors for the
breeder. The market is bound to set
tie upon a basis that will make good
profits for the producer.

Alsace-Lorraine Reference
by Czernin Intended to
Discourage France
TIMED TO APPEAR
WITH OFFENSIVE
specious Arguments Made by the Aus
trian Minister Based on Falsehood-
This Move Prompted by Germans
Doomed to Failure.

WASHINGTON, April with the
German drive virtually brought to
standstill for the time being, great IN
terest was aroused in official circles here
yesterday by the latest speech OF Count
Czernin, made Tuesday in Vienna, IN
which is seen the beginning of another
peace move.
Direct connection is seen here be-
tween the Czernin speech and the Ger
man offensive. That the Czernin speech |
was prompted by the Wilhelmstrasse
and launched at this time to weaken the
resistance of France is the view taken
here. The greatest significance IS seen,
of course, in the Austrian foreign min
ister's reference to Alsaee-Lorralne,
Count Czernin virtually making the
charge that the French desire for AL
SAGE Lorraine was the only thing that
prevented informal peace negotiations
being opened some time before the west
ern offensive began.
The charge that Premier Clemer eau
sought to open these by ipquiring upon
what basis Austria was prepared 10
negotiate is dismissed here as merely
clever move to bring up the question
of Alsace- Lorraine in this form. Nj.
C1emenceau has denied taking this ac-
, ton and it is regarded as more likely
that if any approaches were made tney
!, were made by Austria herself.
: But the whole point OF the present
move as seen here is the desire OF the
& German war party, acting through the
i medium of Count Cxernln, to make X
j appear eoincident with the military or.
Y fensive that France is being drenehed
in blood again merely because she wants
!. to regain Alsace-Lorraine.
q This move on Germany 8 part Is o.
!, course doomed to failure for the reason
that Germany, by her own acts IN th'
> last few months, has shown plainly tina
she is conducting a war of conquest an'
