TO CLEAN ENGINE CYLINDERS
Important to Have Piston in Upper
most Position Of Its Sweep to
Protect Surface.

II has long been customary to clean
gasoline engine cylinders with long
handled scraping tools. the cutting
edges Of which are hardened. In
scraping a cylinder in this manner, 1t
is important to have the piston in the
uppermOst position of its sweep,
since otherwise the scraping tool is
likely to slip into the bore of the CYL
inder and injure the smooth surface
of the cylinder wall.-American Mo-
tOrist.

DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES
FOR GOVERNOR

The Democratic assembly des-
ignated as candidates for the
nomination for governor, Robert
H. Higgins of Pueblo, and James
M. Collins, of Weld county. Both
are men of the highest integrity
and irreproachable character and
both are well and favorably
known thruout the state. But our
candidate for governor this year
should have not only the essen
tial qualifications of a good name
and unimpeachable character, he
should also have decided convic-
tions upon the political issues of
the day. Fortunately, James NJ.
Collins position is we'll known. He
is one of the leaders of progress
i've thought in the state and will
attract many Republican progl ess-
i've voters, especially among the
farmer and labor leagues. Among
other progressive reforms advo-
Gated by him is government own
ership of railroads. Many pro-
gressives in both parties will
agree with Mr.. Collins that gov
ernment ownership of public utili-
ties is the only solution of the
problem that has been advanced.
Mr.. Higgins views upon the
important questions of the hour
are not so we'll known. 1t is to
be hoped, however, that he will
come out and give the public a
full and frank statement of his
views and wherein he differs from
Mr.. Collins. This will enable the
voter to draw his own conclusions
and make an intelligent choice
between the two. The rivalry be-
tween them should be wagcd upon
principles and not upon pei SON.
alities. No bitterness should be
engendered that would endanger
the November election.
The November election will be
the most important one that has
been held in many years. The
final battle for supremacy in the
age old struggle between greed
and selfishness and the common
people has just begun. 1t is the
duty of every true and loyal Dem
ocrat to do all that lies in his
power to make the Democratic
party a party for the people. 1t
is his duty in the primary to sup
port the best candidates of his
party. He owes no duty to the
bad candidates. The election of a
bad candidate instead of being an

A PITIFUL CASE

There is lonely old lady con-
fined in beautiful country man
sion near Marion, Ohio, who is
the victim of the delusion that
she is running for the presidency
of the United States. This old
mansion has a great porch run
ming the full length of two sides
of the building and every day
when the sun shines and the wind
is not blowing this old lady can
be seen upon the porch seated in
an arm chair, rocking to and fro,
and dreaming of the time when
she will occupy the white house
and run this government accord
ing to her own ideas by and with
the consent of the senate.
The old lady says that the Mex
lean problem is a very simple one.
All that is necessary is to have
an understanding with Mexico
and then tell them, by the eternal,
they must keep it. Only Senator
Lodge and Penrose would have to
be consulted.
Owing to her mental condition
visitors are rarely permitted to
converse with her. Occasional
delegations of people, who are in
oculated with the same obsession
which afflicts the old lady, are
permitted to visit her at certain
times. This harmless old lady is
very inquisitive and is angry be-
cause she can't find out what was
said when Jimmy Cox went to Wis
it President Wilson the other day.
She complains bitterly that she
has asked Cox three or four times
what the president said to him
but that he won't tell her. 1t is a
time honored custom that man
who confers with the president
upon public matters is not sup
posed to give their conversation
to the public. But, of course, the
old lady is demented and does not
know this.
Lonely Senator Harding, DOOM
ed to exile and inaction, be of
good cheer. Debs is also deprived
of his liberty under worse condi-
tions than yours. You may long
to make mans fight for the great
prize but you might make mis-
takes. Remember you blundered
on. the League of Nations plank.
1t was meant to read both ways
and in your letter of acceptance
you make it read only one way.
Be careful what you say. 1t will
be safe to attack President Will
son. He is sick, weak and defense
less, and it will be all right to ask
Cox all of the foolish questions
you can think of. He won't ans
wer them and that will give you
a chance to ask them again. Pur-
sue this course and you will avoid
future mistakes. And above all
things be dignifed. Don't even
take a chew of your favorite
brand of tobacco when you have
lady callers.
