Candidate for Commissioner.

Albert l.. BERT Brown of Mancos,
Republican candidate for county COM
missioner, third district, announces his
candidacy in this issue.
Mr.. Brown has been a resident of
the San Juan basin for twenty-s six
years. He first located in Silverton,
where at the age of nineteen years
he embarked in the meat and produce
business in small way and by careful
and progressive management, the bust
ness grew in volume and in such pro-
portions as attracted the attention of
friends who prevailed upon him to
organize company for the continuance
and expansion of the business and as a
result the organization of the Bert
Brown Market and Live Stock company
was perfected in 1902. Under the man.
agement of Mr.. Brown this company
did an enormous business. The pur
chases for cattle alone in Montezuma
county amounting to more than one
hundred thousand dollars annually.
These cattle fed and finished in Monte
yuma county, were driven or shipped
to Silverton where they furnished a
portion of the markets requirements.
Having acquired holdings of land and
cattle in Montezuma county and after
twenty years of successful business
operations in Silverton, Mr.. Brown de-
cided to take up his residence in Man
cos. where he is always glad to meet
his friends.
He Is a strong advocate for good
roads. firm believer in the economical
management of public affairs, court
eous and obliging. Should Mr.. Brown

WOULDN'T it be amusing to
watch some fellow tickle a lady
under the chin with one hand
while he spanked her child with
the other. That is just what lot

They are boosting the Republican
party and cussing the profiteers in
the same article. Everybody
knows that the Republican party
is the high tariff party and if it had
not been for high protective tariff

Seeing Both Ways.

Some of US are content to 60
through life noting the mistakes OF
others. blissfully indifferent TO the
fact that they see us as we see
them. People think of us only as
our own conduct and actions de
serve that we be thought Of.
If we spend our time in petty
and obnoxious criticisms OF others,
We must expect that they at least
will be able 10 detect the bea N in
our own eyes. A few may be
short sighted and unobserving, but
the majority of the people are wise
and quick to note the idiosyncrasies
of human nature.
Why is it that some people are
universally admired and respected
through life, although they have
their faults, as do the rest OF us?
1t is not because those faults are
hidden from the world-far from
it. 1t is because such people have
hearts endowed with more than
the average OF human compassion
hearts that prompt the mind to
recognize the good qualities of
Others rather than to be continually
seeking out the weaker points.
1t is because they see the better
side of others that the world thinks
SO we'll of them. All people have
their faults, but some unfortunately
are only able to distinguish those
which exist in the other fellow.

THE ENEMY WITHIN.

Although Germany has been van pushed, civilization is still threat ened by insidious forces, not from
 without. but from within, warns A. IC. Bedford, of New York, in a re- gently contributed magazine article.
 Strange doctrines are abroad. The
 serious deprivations of war have giv-
 en rise to counsels of despair; the
 reaction from the spirit of unselfish-
 ness and comradeship of war has
 been toward suspicion and expecta-
 tions that cannot be fulfilled. We find people who speak as though the destruction of our whole moral and social fabric was impending. Not
 for moment do sympathize with such pessimism. Yet Cardinal Mer- cier, before the Chamber of Com merce of New York few days ago. spoke significantly Of the sinister and destructive ideas which were falling on fruitful soil in his own native Belgium. The same condi- ton prevails throughout Europe and evidences of it's inroads are no: lacking in the United States. The nations of the world face a common foe-an enemy within us. parasite born of the war, and the destruc- ton of which depends upon our prompt resuscitation from the dew of war. Upon the business men of the world rests the duty to see TO it that these prophecies of despair shall not be verified

COMMENDABLE!

One outstanding fact speaking highly for the present Congress ;s
 that in the first thirty-eight days of the special session 1t passed all the important appropriation bills which the Sixty-ffth Congress failed to enact at the regular three months session. It also adopted the Wom- !an's Suffrage amendment, the bill ending Government control of tele- graphs and telephones, and a bill ,appropriating s6,000.OoO for rehabil- itating disabled soldiers and sailors. Another very commendable thing, the new Congress cut s1,50o. .OOO, ,O00 from the amounts called for in the measures which fell through last iyear. This was made known, writes lthe editor of Leslie's Weekly. in a forceful statement by Mr Mondeil, the Republican floor leader in the present house. MT. Kitchin. the Democratic ex-foor leader, tried to
 refute Mir Mondells assertions re-
 garding the money saved. He in sisted that the decreases in the ap- propriations were made possible by
 the unforeseen reduction of the army and navy, and that had the sums asked by the administration
 been appropriated, only so much
 would have been spent as was abso-
 lutely necessary. He maintained.
 therefore, that no actual saving had
 been effected. MT, Mondell. how ever, asked him why the admins tration agents had urged the senate to restore the sums Topped of by
 the house. But to this MT. Kitchin had no answer to make Facts are sometimes stubborn things. It is

 That he should be permitted to found in the United States a news paper devoted to his bloody cause passes all understanding. There is intelligence that his wife and chil- dren are residents of San Antonio, where they enjoy the blessings of complete liberty. These facts ex. cite wonder as to what conception these impudent persons must have of the American citizenship.

HOW SOFT THEY MUST THINK
 US.

Often, much too often, it has been demonstrated that the Ameri- can people are patient in the face of abuse and strangely tolerant of opposition to their Government. How unfortunately true are these attrib- uted shortcomings, points out the Alaska Daily Empire tJuneau). is evidenced by the recent arrests of aliens from all countries who, while sojourning here, are systematically organizing to overthrow long-estab- lished order and strike down ancient customs
 To these infamies now is added crowning insult. It is announced from San Antonio, Texas. that a newspaper to be devoted to the in terests of Francisco Villa is to be established there, and a propaganda on behalf of that murdering bandi: launched under the direction of one who is heralded as his former sec retary. Villa is a fugitive from American justice. It was he who, at the head of a band of cutthroat

EARLY PIETY.

The Alaska salmon are like the hairs on a mans head-no attention is paid to them until they start dis appearing. aptly remarks the edito. of the Douglas Island News. They resemble each other in other ways also. he says-the disappearance of them can be traced to early piety. Let Us hope that the bringing back of the salmon will not be as hard las the growing of new hair on d bald head.
 The remedies suggested for the
 restocking of the waters of Alaska remind us somewhat of the hair re- ,storers that are on the market i They both contain some sweet smelling essence under high sounding name.
 Without doubt the recent meet ing, in Seattle. of the different in terests that are interested in the salmon industry will be conducive iof great good At the meeting ev- eryone was brought to a realization that the Alaskan salmon should be conserved. They all agreed tha: the salmon belongs to disappear ing species. When all have agreed on that fact they have a common
 ground upon which to start from. It is true tha, the fishes that swim in the waters belong to all the neople of the nation, but Gov ernor Riggs hit the nail squarely on the head when he said that
 Alaskans would like 10 take over
 the responsibility of handling the salmon question of the waters that
 wash the shores of Alaska. We are right here on the ground, the salmon industry is vital part of our lives. We understand conditions
 as they exist We know the pe-
 culiarities of our own people and understand how to handle our resi- dents as no Government bureau
 does.
 The silver beauties that swim in the clear, cold waters of Alaska
 are dear to our hearts. We love every scale on their bodies. We want them to increase and multiply so that they may become as the sands of the seashore. We want Iour streams to be filled with the silver hordes for generations to come, so that our children and our children's children may enjoy sal mon, grilled or friend. For this
The Nenana daily news., 1920-01-02

reason we should like to have the regulating of the salmon industry. We and our children are going to live in the Territory, and if our salmon are to be regulated. We should like to do the regulating.
