WRONG MYSTERY DOPE
Publicity Committee Starts Something
They Dare Not Finish.

The Register stated last week that
both the Peoples Party and Citizens
Party stood for strict enforcement Of
law. reasonable public improvements,
and municipal light plant" Now the
publicity committee of the Peoples
Party denies such to be the case and
saws it will always remain a mystery
who authorized the editor of The
Register to announce such a platform
for the Peoples Party. There is no
mystery about it. The authority we
had was the word Of the Peoples Par
ty representative on the late lament
cd peace conference, MIR. S. ID.
CHURCH, their candidate for mayor,
MIR. CHAS. MAXWELL, their chair
man, and Mr.. C. NJ. Lee. 1t is true
we did not consult either Alfred the
First or Alfred the Third, or Steve, or
even the lately imported boss.
The only mystery abcst the matter
is what part Of the above platform
the author objects to, and even this
we could tell if we knew just which
part of the committee was the author.
If it is the late Importation he prob
ably fears a strict enforcement of the
fire ordinance would injure his bust
ness. If it is the News it may OBJ
ject to strict enforcement of the ordin-
ance against maintaining nuisance.
If the professional end of the COM
mittce is guilty it is probably the
municipal plant that causes the OBJ
lection as another attorney prepared
the papers. If it is the federal official
well he is Ike his friend, the Sena-
tor, "Agin' everything"
Which plank do they oppose-there's
the mystery.
The Lamar register., 1919-03-26
HAVE THEY DONE IT?
Publicity Committee to Busy Asking
Questions to Answer Any.

The Peoples Party publicity COM
mittee are so hard up to find an ex-
cuse to attack Mayor Ray Strain that
they have fallen back on the thread
bare excuse that any man would have
done the same thing. Every man in
the community knows that Mayor
Strain as soon as war was declared
practically gave up his large business
affairs and devoted almost his entire
time to Red Cross, and Food Admin
istration work, besides attending to the
many duties of mayor, and later to the
work of saving lives in the time Of the
great flu scourge. r. l.. Christy in
addition to his work as county treas
urer did two mems work as secretary
OF the Red Cross and chairman of the
War Savings drive. DR.. w. o. Shell
Ter, besides attending to his large
practice devoted large portion of his
time TO the work of the draft board
All this was free of charge. And
nearly every other member of the
Citizens Party ticket devoted large
amount OF time to the various war
drives free of charge.
Now let us seel The Peoples Party
candidate for mayor was also public
official and four Of their candidates
for aldermen were, also. There was
just as much reason for them to get
out and do free work for the govern
ment in the emergency as for Mayor
Strain or any of the others. Now.
will the publicity committee just spare
a little of its space-it won't take
much-to state just what they did.
They say any man would do it, but
what did they do? We could state
times when some of them were asked
to serve in some of these matters and
refused because they wouldn't neglect
their private business for the govern
ment or anything else. But the pub
lie would like to know just how much
of this work. which they say anybody
would do. they did do. 1t was work
absolutely necessary in the great
emergency and somebody had to do it,
and we are all interested in knowing
just who were public spirited enough
to do it, Come through gentlemen and
tell Us just what and how many COM
mittees your candidates worked on. 1t
isn't what people would do that is Of
interest. II IS what they did do.

GETTING 1T OUT OF
THEIR SYSTEMS
Publicity Committee of Peoples Party
Hiding Behind Cloak to Vent
Their Spite.

Hiding behind a cloak of secrecy the
so-called publicity committee of the
Peoples Party is singing mud pro-
miscuously not only at citizens of the
town but at organizations which have
been noted for their charitable and
public spirited work. Using the word
committee" as screen to save their
faces they are venting spleen that
they have been saving up for months
evidently, and probably it is just as
well that they had the opportunity as
they most likely would have blowed up
if they had been forced to hold it
much longer. If that slush is all the
argument they have to offer for their
ticket it is a sorry cause indeed, and
no wonder they had to forget their
stand of a few months since, and beg
Steve to come back into the fold and
they would be good. Their only idea
of city politics seems to be to make
it so dirty that the better class of
citizens won't want to mix in it, and
they can have the field to themselves.
1t won't work this time and they will
find they are playing a losing game.

High School Skee-Wee.

The moving picture that is to be
presented Friday night in addition to
the other attractions of the Skee-Wee
is exceptionally fine. "The Unbeliev-
err" is taken from the story "The
Three Things" 1t gives many scenes
from the real battle fields of Europe,
and also shows the U. S. Marines in
action. The hero, a wealthy young
"snob," goes to war with doubt and un-
belief in his heart, but comes back,
like all our boys, with changed and
broader view of life. There's a vot-
ing contest to be held, fishing to be
had and candy with it, in fact there
is everything to be seen, including a
.eal minstrel show.

viii r.. Murphy on Land Board.

After a hard political fight the re-
cent appointment of Will X. Murphy
as engineer member of the State Land
Board was this week confirmed and
he has been inducted into the office,
giving the republicans majority of
the board for the first time in ten
years. Mr.. Murphy richly deserved
the office for his sacrifice Of last year
when at the request Of the republican
newspapers he undertook the hopeless
fight FOR secretary of state. He is
editor of the Las Animas Leader and
a civil engineer of well known ability
and the state will get efficient service
from him. Also the Arkansas valley
will benefit by having a representative
on the board for the first time. We
congratulate Mr.. Murphy and the
state.

BOARD STATISTICS

The Local Board of Prowers county
has compiled the following statistical
data which gives information of a
very interesting character regarding
TIE operation of the Selective Service
law in this county. 1t will be noted
that the record of the local board,
particularly as to the percentage of
reflections of inducted men at camps,
is a very flattering one, being much
less than the percentage for the state
of Colorado and nearly so percent less
than the National percentage. While
numbers do not always depict the mag
nitude of work accomplished, yet if
the figures represented are carefully
considered, it will be noted that the
local board has been called upon to
handle a large amount of necessary
procedure in the execution of the Sell
ective service law.
Statistical data regarding Selective
service law as the same pertains to the
local board for the County of Prov
ers.
