F. N. Collins and daughter, Norms.
Dan Curtis, Tom Hayden and sever.i
others were among those who took
their first trip to the clouds Sunday.
The field above Hayden's was select
ed as landing place by the sviators
and large crowd was on the grounds
early in the morning. At noon All
went home, but were back again after
dinner despite the severe wind storm
and bitter cold which developed about
eleven o'clock. Unfortunately the af-
ternoon proved a disappointment, as
the machine refused to f1y, one of the
cylinders having become flooded with
oil. The crowd was very patient how
ever, until four o'clock, hoping that
the machine would finally consent to

week, il was not until "Wednesday that
the engine was considered in good con-
d'tion to carry passengers through

The airplane left here Thursday for
Glcnwood Springs. However, as con-
ditions here are considered very good
for flying and landing, the aviators
expect to return to Gunnison in . short
time for another stay.

REPUBLICANS RECESSIoNAL
New York Worid:-

New York Wolid:-
The basic issue of the presidential
campaign has not been more forcibly
stated than by Samuel Gompers, who
says that the Republicans are going
backward and the democrats going for
ward. This conclusion does not rest
altogether upon the utterances of the
candidates, II is reasonable interpre-
tation Of the two platforms.
Senator Harding's speeches may be
searched in vain for any note save
that OF retreat. He is going to re-
serve the entire foreign policy Of the
present administration. He is in favor
of returning to normalcy. He believes
in getting back to the practicalities.
Tie wantsto restore the partnership of
government viii business He says
there can be no true prosperity until
we retrace our steps and revive the
protective tariff. In all things he
urges the people to take the back
track, on which he has covered a con-
siderable distance already

Boulder Camera:-Governor Shoup
owes it to himself to strengthen the
Republican state plank on profteering,
not by explaining why he did not in
clude in his call for an extra session
of the legislature the enactment Of
laws to prevent that evil, but by prom
ising to do something to protect the
public in the future. He can at least
direct the attorney general to proceed,
for instance, against the coal combine

The Boulder Camera says: .JudRe E.
c. Stimson was mentioned in the peti-
tion filed with the secretary of state
to have Charles S. Thomas name plac.
ed on the official ballot as candidate of
the alleged National" party for U. S.
senator. as one of the committee to All
vacancy. Judge Stimson rebukes
those who would divide the Democrat
ic vote for senator and in his state
ment shows with what recllessnesy
mems names may be banded about in
official documents. He says:
II did not present the petition: l did
not sign it; l did not see it; I did not
consent to the use of my name in con-
connection with it. l did not know
my name Was to be used and was not
in Denver at the time for filing.
At the primary election on Septem-
Der l4, l voted for the Hon. Tully
Scott for nomination for his office, and
l expect TO vote for him at the election
in November"
There is no occasion for Senator
Thomas being an independent candi-
date. The Republican candidate for
senator is almost as bitterly opposed
to the Democratic policies as declared
by President Wilson, the National
Democratic convention and platform
as is Senator Thomas. Judge Scott is
entitled to the votes of Democrats on
his record because of his stand on ma
tional and state issues

meeting in Montrose the other night

gentlemen whose handbills announced
that they "are among Colorado's great

the only place where Senator Thomas
name could possibly attract applause
in Colorado. Really, we fail to see
why the Republican party did not
