Walter Powell.

Designated on the republican
ticket along with Thos. Oxenrei-
der for county assessor
The Pc wells are also old-time
settlers, but they moved away,
and about 5 years ago Walter re-
turned to this country and prov
ed up claim.
We believe Mr.. Powell has
taught school q good many years
so he would bring to the Office if
elected good educational quail
fication along with other things.
He now lives in the Blaine
neighborhood. is a farmer, and
has a family. If elected we have
no reason to doubt that be would
make a good assessor.
The republicans in the primary
will choose between Powell and
Oxenreioer, and the one that
gets the nomination will then
have to contest with the demo.
cratic nomination for the election.

tie in Baca county. and they
have remained true and faithful
to the country ever since, they
having the confidence and re-

What is wanted of an assessor
is one who knows value when he
sees it, and who is strictly hon
est and upyeilding for the right
and we believe Tom has these
qualifications.
For two years Tom has been
deputy assessor and so has an
understanding Of that part Of the
business.
Sorry Tom is on the wrong

various parts Of Louisiana and
Mississippi volunteering to assist in
the Thrift movement. Ministers Of
Waterloo, Iowa, have issued joint
circular urging members Of the
churches to buy stamps and one
church alone bought $3025 worth Of
stamps.
Many churches in Louisiana and
Mississippi have arranged special
Programmes in which children play a
prominent part. Uncle Sam is re-
lying to a large extent on the as
sistance of boys and girls in the
Thrift campaign and already they
have turned many millions into the
treasury at Washington.
The state committee believes that
the churches will reach the substan-
tial classes to which the Thrift
Stamps will appeal both as means
of serving ones country and max
ing a good investment. The minis
tiers in the two states will show that
the United States government is in
no sense begging but that the Thrift
stamps are a first-class business
proposition.
It is estimated that on Thrift
Sunday" at least $4,000 persons
will attend the churches of Louis
lana and Mississippi and that they
will purchase not less than million
stamps.
