of being the object of aversion or
ridicule.

SENATOR THOMAS

For thirty years or more Sena-
tor. Thomas has been recognized
as one of the most steadfast lead
ers of Colorado Democracy. Other
leaders might come and go, might
desert the party and wander off
after other gods, but Thomas
never wandered in his allegiance.
Like a firm and unyielding rock
he stood in the front ranks of all
his party's battles. During all
this time he had but one political
ambition and that was to become
a member of the U. S. senate.
The Democratic party honored
him by electing him governor of
the state and by twice electing

The Democrats have filled the
vacancy on their ticket for clerk
and recorder with the name of
Arthur S. Teats. He is native
son of Gilpin county and was
born at Black Hawk in the house
nearest to where Gregory made
his world famous discovery of
gold. He was educated in the
public schools of the county. Dur
ing the past eleven years Mr..
Teats has been engaged in busi-
ness in Central City. Owing to
the depression in all lines of busi-
ness which depend upon the min
ing industry he has of late work
ed at the mines sorting ore. He
met with an injury when he was
about thirteen years of age which
resulted in the amputation of one
of his legs and has been compell-
ed to use crutches in walking for
thirty-fve years. All of his in
terests and his property are in
Gilpin county and like the rest of
our business men his future de-
pends upon the prosperity of our
county. If the county fails, they
fail; if the county prospers, they
prosper. His business training
has fitted him to discharge the
duties of the Office and his claims
entitle him to fair consideration
from the voter.
Gilpin observer., 1920-10-14
REPUBLICAN CONFIDENCE

The principal idea which the
Republican press is trying. to keep
before the people is that the SEN
timent of the country favors
Harding. In all their editorials
they express unbounded conf
dence in Republican success. You
have all heard of the man who re-
peated a lie so often that he final
ly believed it himself.
Let us inquire into the reasons
which they give for their conf
.dence. Mr.. Harding was report
ed to have held an enthusiastic
meeting in Oklahoma: it is at
once predicted that Harding will
carry Oklahoma. No presidential
candidate that ever ran for the of
fee had as large and enthusiastic
meetings as Bryan did in all his
campaigns thruout the country,
but Bryan was defeated. But ad-
mitting that enthusiastic meet
ings are a favorable indication,
Cox has had a great many more
enthusiastic meetings than Hard
ing.
Another reason advanced is that
Cox has no campaign fund and
cannot make proper campaign.
1t is without doubt true that the
Democratic national committee is
short on money. But will this
hurt Cox's chance? Voters are
thinking for themselves in this ell
ection and it may occur to them
to ask where the millions come
from that are being spent so Law
ishly to elect Harding. If Cox
favored special privilege and the
money power everyone knows he
would have plenty of money.
But all of the Republican papers
say the Democratic national COM
mittee is fiat broke. This proves
that Cox does not favor the big
interests but stands for-the peo-
Piles rights. How then do these
papers reach the conclusion that
the lack of campaign fund will

contact with all classes OF the people.
I found, however that the viewpoint
of Americans In the Philippines, and
Americans In the United States, on the
subject of independence, Is not the
same.
The attitude Of the American gov
ernment, and the great mass OF the
people of the United States, is to con-
slider the Philippine question from the
unselfish viewpoint Of what Is best
for the Filipino people Ninety-five
per cent of the opposition to inde-
pendence emanates from American In
vestors in the islands who are quite
naturally more interested in the size
of their dividends than the freedom OF
an alien people.
The unfortunate feature Of the sit
uation Is that the opponents of inde-
pendence, in order to convince the peO-
pie of the United States that the Fill
pinos should not be granted their In
dependence, find 1t necessary to libel
an entire race. To tell a sensitive
Christian people that they shall not
have their promised independence be-
the end prove a mistaken policy. 1t
will only make their demand for in
dependence the stronger.
At the present time, however, the
masses of the Filipino people still
have absolute confidence in the good
faith Of America. Their loyalty and
gratitude to Uncle Sam has not as
yet been impaired by the misrepre-
sentations of the retentionists. Their
tinguish between those Americans
who oppose their aspirations to in
dependence for purely selfish reasons,
and the great mass of the American
people whom they know desire this
government to do by the FilipinOs
only that which Is just and right.
In this connection. 1t is interesting
to review the development of the pres
ent friendly relationship between the
Filipino and American peoples.
Previous to 1916 the Philippine
American relationship is declared to
have been not of the best. But with
the passage in that year of the Jones
law by practically both the Republican
and Democratic memberships of Con-
gress, a better feeling developed. This
better feeling" has now grown into
very strong bond Of sympathy and
affection.
The happy attitude of the Filipino
people toward America is due not prn-
cipally to the fact that Americans
have shown the Filipinos how to make
their country better place to live in
not principally to the fact we have
superintendent the implanting in the
Philippines OF one Of the finest edu-
cational systems in the world nor to
the building of high class roads,
bridges and public works-but is due
Gilpin observer., 1920-10-14

defeat Cox? Do they base it on
the belief that no candidate who
opposes special privilege can be
elected?
Some time, and it may be this
time, these people who base their
confidence in carrying an election
for a candidate because he has
the support of the money power
will wake up the morning after
election to find that the voters
have been doing little quiet
thinking for themselves.
The Denver News says that
Lloyd George predicts that the
United States will enter the
league after election and that the
British press predicts that Hard
ing will be elected. The News
figures out from this that Lloyd
George must understand Hard
ing's real position upon the
league. Hiram johnson is against
the league and believes that Hard
ing agrees with him. Ex-Presi-
dent Taft is in favor of the league
and thinks that Harding is of the
same opinion. Did it ever occur
to the News that Lloyd George
might possibly have based his pre-
diction on the expectation that
Cox would be elected?
