100 pEa CENT AMERICAN

The La lara Gazette.
Guy o. Hardy of Canon City. Repub-
lican candidate for Congress. was In
La lara last Saturday. Mr.. Hardy
had no opposition in the primaries
and will be the regular nominee at
the November election. He is the
solution OF the congressional prob
lem in case of Keating's nomination.
for he will carry the district by big
majority. Mr.. Hardy is 100 per cent
American, and his heart Is with the
boys .over there" His platform on
the war is the same as the Presidents
mo peace until the Hun Is whipped
and knows he is whipped. and ready
to accept terms dictated by the Allies
But patriotism is not all there X
about Mr.. Hardy. In that respect he
is no better nor stronger than the
editor of the Gazette. but he is filter
for a congressman. In the winning
of the war and the return 10 normal

of brains. wisdom. experience and
