Some Suggestions.

Dolores, Colo, December 8, 1919.
To the Editor of The Star
Dear Sir:-The financial statements
of the banks of Dolores, which ap-
peared in the issue of the Star of week
before last, showed that Dolores was
all o. X. so far as finances were con-
cerned, and the comments and COM
parsons made on the bank statements
of the county was boost for Dolores.
But, while reading them, we couldn t
help but wonder. whether or not the
bank statements were safe criterion
by which to judge town.
1t certainly shows that there is
money in Dolores with which to do
things, but, from our observation,
there has not been much done to i'm
prove the Town of Dolores the past
few years. Everybody is interested in
the growth of Dolores, especially those
who live in the town and adjacent
country. A good. wide awake, grow
ing town enhances the value of every
farm or ranch adjacent to it, so the
farmers for miles around are vitality
interested in your town.
We notice that occasionally the Star
calls attention to improvements that
the town needs, such as electric lights,
rest room, good roads, etc, but nothing
seems to come from the suggestions.
1t may be that the suggestions are not
spacific enough, so with your kind per-
mission we will try our hand.
We understand that, on account of
outstanding water bonds, the town
cannot vote bonds for lighting plant.
But, why could not a company be
formed and capitalized for an amount
sufficient to put in a lighting plant,
and the stock sold to the citizens of the
town and to any others that might
wish to invest. We can see no reason
why such stock would not be a good
Investment. A franchise could be
granted such a company for period
of ten years, and then the town could
buy the plant.
Dolores has the reputation of being
the prettiest town in Colorado, and also
of being the best business town for its
size in the state. But if that reputa-
ton is to last some effort will have to
be put forward by your citizens to keep
it the best.
If this appears in print l will have
more suggestions later.

posed in House
Bill

HarrisBurs, March 11.--To safeguard
election and prevent occurrences of past
frauds, two bills were. introduced in the
House by Representative William j.
Brady, at the instance OF the indepen-
dents OF Philadelphia. The bills are
amendments to the election laws and
one OF the features of the measure 10
that a county commissioner who is a
candidate for reelection shall not sit az
a member OF the return court following
the primary election.
One OF the bills provides that in the
event county commissioner 10 a can
didate for reelection the Common Pleas
Court judges shall select another and a
disinterested person TO sit in his place
as a member of the return court
This provision Is believed TO be aimed
at County Commissioners George r.
Holmes and Harry Kuenze1. Of Phila-
ielphia, who are slated as the Ware can
didates at the September primaries. In
the event tho measure passes, the two
Ware men would not be permitted TO sit
as judges when the returns are submit
ted after the primaries
The Second bill changes the date OF
