For County Commissioner e Year Term).

It was only after continued persuasion from both Republican
and Democrats that Andy Nelson of Walcott consented to file his
name as candidate 1i for county commissioner for the two year term
on the Republican ticket. Mr.. Nelson needs no introduction to
the. voters of Carbon County as he is known throughout every sec
ton. AS a successful stockman and rancher he has become ac-
quainted with most of the roads and trails of the county and is
perhaps better qualified to fill the office of commissioner than
any other man in the county.
For two terms as representative of Carbon County Andy
Nelson made a remarkable record and one of which the Repub
hcan party is justly proud. AS a business man and as a citizen
he has made a record which entities him to the support of all.
Andy Nelson is a broad -guage man in every respect. While
conservative and careful he looks at things in a big way and &C
composites things in the same manner.
For many years past Mr.. Nelson has taken an active interest
in road work and at his own expense has done considerable work
on the roads. AT his home at Wacott he has done a great amount
of road work without expense to the county, simply because he is
the kind of a citizen that places. his county and home above any
personal greed.
Republicans and Democrats for many years past have been
urging Andy Nelson to become a candidate for county commits
sioner, believing that as commissioner he would be able to do a
great deal of good for the county. In anything that this gentle
man goes into he goes with his whole heart and as county com
missioner he will be found working day and night for the county's
good.
In casting your vote for Andy Nelson you will be voting for a
big man, big in every way; for a man who has no personal axes
to grind; for a man who is not seeking office for personal reasons
and for a man who has consented to become a candidate at a big
personal sacrifice simply for the county's good.

Fol OouIlCy commissioner "a ear Iefm)
The Republican party of Carbon County is presenting to
the voters of the county for the responsible position of County
commissioner for the 4 year term, the name of a man who for
forty years past has been a resident of Carbon County and who as
a miner in the coal mines of Carbon and Hanna and as a randher
and stockman has proven himself to be a substantial and pro
gressive resident of the county.
Mr.. David West of Elk Mountain, comes before the voters
with exceptional qualifications for the office of county commits
sioner. AS a miner and laboring man he became acquainted with
the needs and conditions of that class; as a successful rancher and
stockman he has become acquainted with the principal industry
OF the county. Living as he does many miles away from the rail
road and in a section where good roads are an absolute necessity
if any communication is held with the outside world, Mr.. West
has always taken an active interest in road matters.
Mr.. West is known throughout the county because of his
absolute fairness and his good judgment and is also known because
of his firmness in all matters wherein he believes that he lsin
the right. During his forty years residence in the county he has
been one of the most successful and progressive residents.
AS a citizen of Carbon County Mr.. West has raised a large
family all OF whom are making their home in this county. In
the World War Mr. West gave a son to the cause.
With Dave West as county commissioner every section of the
county can be assured that he will be absolutely fair and i'm
partial. He will not be a representative of any section of the
county or of any party but will be a representative of the entire
county. He is a large tax payer, a successful business man and
all tax payers can be assured with him handling county funds that
the money will not be wasted but will be used to the best ad-
vantage.

A. J. Roster, Republican candidate for County and Prescott
ing Attorney to succeed himself, needs no introduction to the
voters of Carbon County as he is known throughout the length
and breadth of the county.
Mr.. Roster has been County and Prosecuting Attorney for the
past several years and this election he is coming before the voters
upon the record he has made in the office. The Republican party
is proud to endorse Mr.. Roster and to endorse his record as
County Attorney.
During his term of office A. J: Roster mas fulfilled the diff
hcult duties of the County Attorneys office to the almost univer-
sal satisfaction of the people of the county. He has fairly and
conscientiously seen that the laws were enforced, and as prose
cutor he has made an excellent record.
Mr.. Roster is liked and respected by every person with whom
he has come in contact and his legal ability is recognized through
out the entire state.
The Republican party in presenting the name of A. j. Roster
to the voters for County and Prosecuting Attorney feels that no
better qualified man for this position could possibly have been
secured. The Republican party feels that for this responsible
position a man of recognized training and experience should be
secured.
On November End you will make no mistake by casting your
vote for A. j. Roster for the office of County and Prosecuting
Attorney, thereby insuring proper attention to the legal affairs of
the county at the minimum of expense.

Everyone who knows billie Dick" knows that with his cleo
ton as county assessor every piece of property in the county will

FINAL RESULT OF CENSUS
NAY Be ANNOUNCED TODAY
Gain In This Country Is Expected To
Be About Fourteen Million Over
Last Census Ten Years Ago.

Washington, Oct. 7. - The result OF
the fourteenth decennial census Is to
be announced late today.
1t is expected to show there are
approximately 1O5,75O,OOO persons in
continental United States, or about
$4,000, 1000 more than in 1910, when the
last census was taken.
The population announcement today
represents nine months of work by
$1,000 temporary enumerators and 81
900 permanent employees of the Cen
sus Bureau.
Along with its announcement Of to-
tai population, the Census Bureau will
make public complete list of state
populations.
Only three state - Nevada, Missis-
sippi and Vermont = have shown an
actual decrease in population so far,
and others to be announced are ex-
pected to show substantial increases.
Many states, however, failed to gain
as fast as they have in previous dec
AIDES.
The gain for the whole country is
expected to be 10 per cent, as COM
pared with a gain of 2O.9 per cent be-
tween the years of 1900 and 1910. Cen
sus officials say the drop in the per-
centage is due to the hating Of immi-
grafton, decreased birth rate as result
of the war and the large death rate re-
sulting from two serious epidemics Of
influenza.

FLEMING TOBACCO
CROP ABOUT In.

The Flemingsburg Times-Democra
says
Practically all the tobacco crop of
Fleming county is in the barn. There
may be a little patch here and there
still uncut, but nothing to amount to
anything, A trip through Bath and
Montgomery counties the first of the
week showed more tobacco in the field
in those counties than in Fleming, but
in those counties it will all be housed
this week. Fleming county has never
had better crop Of tobacco, we think,
and 1t has been very slightly damaged
by either rust or house-burn. The
prospect now is that it will come onto
the sales floor in firstclass condition,
and we hope our growers will get the
top of the market for their holdings"
