COUNTY SUPERIN.
TENDENT OF SCHOOLS

In the selection of Miss Minnie
Frey for the important Office of
county superintendent of schools,
the Democrats have a candidate
whose qualifications can be equal
ed in few counties of the state.
She is native of Boston where
she received her early education.
After completing the school
course here she spent year in
Europe in travel and study. On
her return to Central she opened
private school of twenty pupils
which she taught until her ap-
pointment as teacher in the pub
lie schools. At that time her
class in the primary department
consisted of one hundred thirty
pupils.
For eight years she was sue
cessful teacher in Gilpin county.
Then wishing change she taught
for four years at Idaho Springs,
when she was called back to Cen
trail City, where after seven years
more in the school room she was
appointed county superintendent
by the county commissioners to
fill the unexpired term of Helen
l.. Grenfell, elected state super
intendent of public instruction.
By reason of the splendid rec
ord established during that year
she was nominated by the three
fusion parties for a full term of
two years. During her term in
Office she attended every meeting
and took part in the discussions
of the county superintendent Of
the state, of all the problems per-
tanning to the office.
All thru her teaching career
she was an active member of the
National, State and County Teach
ers' associations, visiting schools
in different parts of the country,
meeting and hearing the best
men and women in the educational
world. All claims for support of
Miss Frey are based upon her
qualifications, wide experience,
and the splendid record she has
made in the past in educational
work. -.

NOTICE Us HEREBY GIVEN, that
on the 9th day of ember A. d.
1912, the following described

him to the United States senate.
He is now acting as senator be-
cause of the loyalty to him of the
Democratic party. In view of all
these facts if Senator Thomas de-
sired to succeed himself he should
have gone into the Democratic as
sembly and made his race in the
primary for the nomination.
Instead of this, he made no eff
fort to get the nomination from
the Democrats and even save out
that he had retired from politics,
and now after his party has made
its nomination for senator he
comes out as an independent can
didate. 1t is hard to discern and
explain the peculiar mental forces
which seem to be guiding his pol
itical course. He may have be-
come a victim to the blandish-
ments of willy Republican polite
ians who have assured him that
he would receive large Republi-
can support and was sure of an
election if he made the race.
AS an old friend and admirer,
senator, take it from us these. fell
lows are stringing you and will
desert you il your hour of need,
and no Democrat will vote for you
because you can show no grounds
for deserting your party. Your
defeat will be more ignominious
than the defeat of the gold bug
ticket which was put up in opposi-
tion to Bryan and it is reported
that ticket only carried one pre-
cinct in the United States.

Declares Filipinos All /
Want independence
Former Illinois Congressman Back From Philippines,
Give. Interesting Views Island Affairs.


principally to the fact that in the
Jones law America gave the Filipinos
her word of honor that as soon as a
stable government could be establish
ed we would withdraw our sovereignty
from the Philippine Islands.
1t might, at first thought, seem
strange that In their sincere appre-
citation of all that we have done for
them the Filipino people should place
most emphasis on the promise to grant
them their independence. For 1t can
not be successfully denied that on the
whole the United States has treated
the Filipino people better than any
nation ever treated q dependent alien
people in all the days since the curtain
rose on the dawn Of civilization. II
we do not spoil it, 1t is record that
we can be proud Of. {
But it really isn't so strange that
the Filipino should love us more for
our promise to give them sovereignty
over themselves than for our other
good works, for which. after all, out
side of army and navy expenditures,
the Filipinos have been taxed, and
If we but reverse the situation, and
place ourselves in the shoes of the
Filipinos, which cannot be said to be
an unfair way Of getting at the other
fellows viewpoint, we shall see that
1t is not strange.
Suppose that Great Britain or any
other power that you can think Of by re-
ferring to your geography or history,
should impose its sovereignty upon US
against our will and then give us an
infinitely better government than we
now enjoy? Could any such foreign
power ever succeed In convincing US
that 1t had our welfare more at heart
than we have ourselves.
But to return to my story, the Fill
pinos heartily thanked US for the
Jones law, considering it sort Of
covenant between the Filipino and
American peoples, and Immediately
applied themselves to the task of set
ting up the prescribed stable govern
ment. And they set 1t up. 1t is In
the Philippines now. Americas own
representative in the islands, the gov
ernOr general, officially reports 1t is
there, and recommends that since the
Filipinos have earnestly fulfilled their
part of the agreement, America should
be as prompt In carrying out its part
of the contract.
So that, in q few words. 1t is not
the Philippines that now are on trial,
but the United States.
There is but one answer. America
will carry out its agreement. And
since we are going to do it. we cannot
afford to bubble and split hairs and
hesitate until our tardiness robs US
Of half the glory of our achievement.
Let us act with prOmptness and will
ingness really worthy of America.
And when the people of the United
States set up the Philippine Republic
as the first Christian democracy Of
the Far East. they will be building a
monument to themselves that will
stand throughout eternity. On that
day the beacon light Of hope, humanity
and justice will flash around the world.
Such an example by America will ac-
complish more for the weak and strug-
Cling peoples of the earth than the
four year world war. with all its cost
in life and treasure.
