OUR CONGRESS- 3
DNAL CANDIDATE

Merle D. Vincent, as . result Of The
primary election, il the Republican
candidate for Congressman in the
Fourth Colorado district. He made
no effort to secure the nomination be-
yond accepting the designation and
publishing the fact that he was candi-
date. Now that he is nominated Ia
will make an aggressive campaign to
be elected.
In Mr.. Vincent, the Republicans have
candidate who, to say the least, il
Mr. Taylor's equal in every particular
except in experience as legislator.
and Mr.. Vincent isn't a novice A a
legislator and is not stranger in
Washington, d. c. He is 48 years
OF age, just coming into the prime
of life. He is able without being con
celted. He is just as approachable and
just as likeable as Mr. Taylor. He is
diplomatic in dealing with people but 10
no "pussy -footer." He is literally and
truly one of the people and his record
shows that he is FOR the people. He
is progressive without being reckless.
He has vision without being vision
ary. He has mind which is both
analytical and logical. and he can
analyze questions and reason them out
to logical question, and NO man
who knows his record will charge that
he hasn I the courage of his convic-
ton. He is one Of the optimists, who,
while looking ON the bright and cheer
ful side of life, realize fully that many
of our economic conditions need re.
adjusting. He recognizes that both
capital and labor have rights which not
only should have but must have caro-
full consideration, but he also realizes
that fully two-thirds of our people,
standing between those two organized
forces, must have real helpful consid-
eration. The producer of food ssuffs
and the consumers of all kinds of COM
modites must have some relief from
present conditions and practices, which,
has not been obtainnl and can not b
hoped for from Democratic con-
gress.

VINCENT FOR coNoRsas.

The voters of the Fourth Congress
sional district are fast learning that
Merle D. Vincent, candidate for Con-
gress, is live wire and that he is one
of the most fearless men ever making
the race for such office. They are find
ing that congressman can work for
the interests of his state, but, when it
comes to voting for law which will
protect those interests, he can and does
vote against such law and helps kill it
and the boasted "working for your in
terests' has been killed by his own
act Vincent promises to vote to pro-
teet the interests of the state and this
promise appeals to the Colorado Fourth
district ranchers and miners, many Of
whom are facing ruin because the pres
ent laws allow other countries to
dump their products on our markets Mt
lower price than our own people can
meet and pay the wages they are now
paying. OF course, the consumer has
not received any great benefits from
lowering prices on Colorado products.

COULTER FoR COMMISSIONER

R. P. Coulter may not be as we'll
known over the county as is Peers
Coulter, but when the voters find they
are one and the same person, they say:
Sure, we are going to support Coulter
for Commissioner" They know he
has worked hard and faithfully for the
best interest Of the county. They
know he has tried hard to see tho
greatest amount of benefit come from
the expenditure of the county funds.
They know that as property owner
in the county, he will work to help all
property owners. Peers has made good
as county commissioner and the vot-
ers say they see no reason why he
should not be reelected and thus given
chance to carry out greater plans for
the county's welfare.
The Glenwood post., 1920-10-30

Before choosing candidates whom
we wish to support We should carefully
investigate their past record and the
proper place to do this is at the place
where they reside. If you wish to find
out what a man is, go to the people
who know him and who are in close
touch with him. My past record will
bear inspection
We need business administration
at this time and business men in charge
of the country, men noted for their
business ability and their "level head
edness.''
l have made success of my own
business and think that can be trust
ed with the affairs of the state. I
have been endorsed by the stockmen
and farmers and the business men are
boosting for my election.
YOUR INTERESTS ARE MY IN
TEREsTS. I'm FOR YOU. ARE
YOU FOR Me,
May l have your support.
Very truly yours,

Mr.. Vincent has unboundcd energy
and unusual capacity for work He
is familiar with the needs of the west.
If elected he will give as full and ac-
tive consideration to the local interests
of the district as has been given by
Mr.. Taylor, and in addition he will
be a factor in shapin. tho policies OF
his party and of congress. He will
support n reasonable and practical pro-
tectivc tariff, one which will afford pro-
lection to the farmer, stockman, the
miner and the laborcr. without open
ing the way to monopolies, and will
at the same time produce revenues
which will relieve the public from much
of til" present burden of taxes. He

CLARK FOR CORONER.

This is just to remind the voters that
their old friend, DIR. l.. G. Clark is
candidate for County Coroner. True,
there are not many times when the
coroner is called upon to hold inquests,
but when the times do come, the voters
realize the necessity Of having Doctor
Clark in charge. The people know that
every honest effort will be made TO
gather the facts at an inquest and that
the truth will be learned.

MPUblICANS HOLD
FINAL MEETING
Senator STEPHENS Of Denver
EPeuadsd Gospel to
Appreciatve Crowd
SAYS VICTORY IS SURE

At the Odeon theater Thursday even
ing the Republicans held their final
public meeting of this campaign, and
an interesting meeting it was.
Chairman Parkison named J. W.
Bell as chairman of the meeting, and
the latter addressed the meeting ON the
issues of the campaign and introduced
as other candidates, R. G. Oallen,
Claude Rees, Mrs. Nellie Brown and
Miss Ora Coulter. Each of these
made q splendid impression ON the vot-
ers present by their frank and logical
attitude.
The principal speaker Of the even
ing was Senator John B. Stephen, Of
Denver, who has campaigned in Glen
wod in other years and who is well
known to many Of our people. Mr..
Stephen dwelt heavily ON the tariff
question, showing plainly the lack Of
prices for our products, due to the lsek
of tariff and the Indifference Of the
authorities at washington in behalf OF
our producers.
The speaker also opposed the league
of nations in its present form, and
showed the mistake of President Will
son in trying to force the document on
the American people.
Mr. Stephen is a union labor advo-
cate and holds his membership in the
Brotherhood of Railroad Engineers,
but he believes in justice and compTi-
anee with law, and is an unrelentless
foe to the anarchistic tactics pursued
by some labor unions in their efforts
to win strikes. He predicts the success
of the entire Republican ticket next
Tuesday.

BUSINESS MARKS
TIME IN THE WEST
Hesitation on Part Of Producers
Caused by Attitude of
Buyers

Chicago. Oct. 30.-Thc main feature
of the western business situation Is the
continued ultra conservative attitude on
the part of buyers. THIS is true in vir-
tually every line of industry. Further
curtailmcnt Of operations by manufac-
turing industries. increasing unemploy
mcnt, and hesitation generally on the
part Of producers were the results of
this attitud" of the buyers. Wholesale
houses report slightly better demand
for srasonablc winter goods as n result
of the colder weather, but emphasize
the generally slack demand.
Steel and iron and coke prices have
turned weak and this has emphasized
the lack Of big volume Of new buying
orders. There are few industries now
that are calling urgently on the steel
mills. The slump in grain has checked
the farm buying. this Deing reflected in
the mail-ordcr trade primarily, but has
been felt by the manufacturers of farm
implements, who have been big buyers
of iron and steel.
The dissatisfaction in regard to farm
prices for cereals is being manifested
by sO-calIcd strikes of producers, who
are determined TO hold for higher prices.
1t is doubtful if this attitude Is in
any way unanimous. On the other hand
this dissatisfaction is IA big factor in
Curtailing the buying demand generally.
No new projects for building arc
being undertaken in a general way.
Money conditions are not much changed
No special change in lOaning rates is
shown. Collections continue fair, with
gains over year ago.

able weather conditions in parts of the
West have stimulated retail buying
But, in major features, conditions have
not changed materially. Dun's record
of commodity prices shows that the
prices of ninety-seven articles continued

The recovery Of grain prices has had a
little effect In stabilizing some other
commodity quotations, although the pro
cess was not sufficient to mark any new
development which promised a lasting
influence.
Hopes that revivlng business will fol-
low the elections" says Dun's Review,
find expressions in some quarters. hut
the results OF the balloting are not likely
to prompt a sudden reversal of con-
sumers buying disposition and there is
no general expectation OF any Immediate
appreC eClable recovery from the existing

while confusion over the fundamen-

has not been lacking, political factors do
not explain the steadily yielding prices
