PROTECT THE REPUTA.
TON OF THE MAN WHO
STAYS AT HOME

There are thousands of young met
in the United States today who are
physically fit and young enough fol
rHisNrv service, but who are stay.
ing at home simply because they are
than in the trenches. These young
men are trained along agricultural,
engineering or industrial lines and
they include county agricultural
agents, extension specialists, teach
ers of agriculture, construction en-
gineers. and mechanical engineers.
Many of them have been exempted
through the action of their super
iors, especially those connected with
projects of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, for the gov
vernment has been farsightcd md
sane enough to see that food pro-
duction and the manufacture Of
munitions must not be seriously
curtailed but rather increased II
we are to win the war.
The position of these young men
is rather delicate one and 1t will
be still more delicate when the war
is over and our soldiers come home.
So far as demonstration Of courage
and service to their country is con-
cerned. these young men are just as
worthy Of praise, If not more SO,
than their brothers who enlisted,
because it takes by far a greater
amount of courage for young man
to stay at home these days than it
does for him to enlist. But are we
going to remember these things
when tho war is over? We Ameri-
cans have faculty for forgetting, n
faculty. that ix happy one in some
cases but that may work injustice in
others. 1t Is conceivable that these
young men will be looked upon with
suspicion when our soldiers come
home and the Civilizations of victory
fill the nation.
Such a condition should be pre-
vented and It can be prevented by
issuing these men some certificate
or badge recognising their service
in time of war. This certificate or
badge should be issued only by the
government itself and the signatures
upon It should include the signature
Of the Secretary Of War.

FINAL FIGURES OF THE
WAR SAVINGS DRlX

With the exception Of one dis
trict, full returns are now in from
every school district in the county.
Partial returns from the missing dis
trict added to the results from the
other districts make the county's to-
tai in War Savings Stamps Drive
416s, 4s2.00. The number of per-
sons pledging themselves to buy
Ws$ Savings Stamps before Decem-
bsr 81st Is 1896, which number re:
presents 80 per cent Of the total
votes cast In this county in the last
general election.
The average pledge, based on these
results, IL $89.75. Eleven school dis
tricts exceeded this average. The
largest average, reported from any
school district being that from
School District No. 20, which ID
e72.00, the lowest being from Dis
trict No. 26, which Is $1l.00 for each
person making . pledge. The fol-
lowing districts exceeded the quota
allotted to them:

ANOTHER MAD DOG SCARE

time he had to keep track Of the
dog. Russell Mcllinpcs, i2yenr-old

The largest amount raised in any
one district was that from District
No. /, comprising Golden, which Is
$47,376.00, pledged by 827 persons,
making an average Of about $3.50
per person. District No. 2, compris-
ing Arvada, came next, where $l9>
$500 was pledged by sac pers66,
being nm average Of $500 pepper
son.
In few Of the districts, the mem
bers Of the School Boards failed to
take the interest in the drive which
they should have taken, merely do
ing what they thought their duty,
and in Q perfunctory sort Of way,
without any personal effort to induce
the people to pledge the maximum
amount. From such districts the
results are rather disappointing, but
this b owing more to the lack Of ef-
fort on the part Of the School d.
rectors, a. above mentioned, rather
than any lack Of patriotic interest on
the part Of the residents Of such
districts. The names Of the members
Of these particular School Boards
are not mentioned at this time, be-
cause Il h hoped that such neglect
WAS not intentional, but came about
because these officers were not suf-
ficisntly awakened TO the necessity
for the patriotic performance Of the
duties imposed upon them.
A full and complete alphabetical
list Of all persons pledging them:
solves d now being made, and will
when completed, be open for inspec-
ton At the War Activities Head
quarters.
While Jsffsrsoa County failed -
pledge it, quota Of War Savings
Stamps, yet the final results are
regarded as being fairly satisfactory.
In round figures, the people OF this
county have loaned to their govern
msnt during the past year the sum
Of 1891 10000 divided ~ follow:
First Liberty Loan ....$ 100000
Second Liberty Loan :. 100000
Third Liberty Loan .. gas, 100000
War Savings Stamps
When one considers that the aver
ass total Of all bank deposits In this
county does not exceed 5000, 900,
the showing made in these various
loans b quite remarkable.
For the Fourth Liberty Loan,
which It 10 expected will be offer.
cd In October o. November. full
preparations are now BEING made
and Il 10 hoped and expected that
the people Of the county will patrio-
otically arise to the necessities Of
the occasion, and will cheerfully loan
to their Government whatever
amount may be allotted to this coun-
ty to raise.

STOCK BOOM CONTINUES;
PRICES UP, SALES HEAVY

Despite the official warning from
Washington against over confidence as
a result OF the continued Allied successes
on all fronts. the boom in peace stocks
which began early in the week continued
to-day on even a greater scale.
The market was again under the In
nuence of good war news and in some
quarters the extremely optimistic apin-
ion was held that peace, or ~ leaSL a
cessation OF hostilities. was only a mat
ter OF week or two.
In the first two hours the sales were
77o. 900 shares. against 57l.iO0 for the
same period yesterday. Business fell of
somewhat In the afternoon but exceeded
one million shares at o'clock.
Advances In those stocks which II Is
considered would benefit by declaration
Of peace ranged from 10 IS points.
Mexican Petroleum leading. Metal and
rail stocks made advances.
Conversely the war issues. which have
been speculative favorites. were sold
heavily. United States Steel. by some
regarded as a peace stock. by others a
war issue, gained y points at the start
later ,forfetlng most OF II and again
moved upward. Leaders In the wal
group, Bethlehem and Crucible Steels
| and Baldwin Locomotive yielded l to .
| points.
