caus" II is a state paper of much in
terest to everyone. Nevertheless, we
do not think it betrays any astounding
craftsmanship, altho the governor is
probably well meaning. Many of the
recommendation are far from being
desirable. This is particularly true
Of the intent to abandon the state phi
mary law. As a matter of fact every
political hack and machine politician in
Colorado has been dreaming of a time
when under cover of some reaction
they could ditch the direct primary.
II has its faults, as the Democratic
party found to its sorrow in the last
election, but when we recollect the
crimes committed under the old con-
vcntion system, they are small in com
parison. Leave the direct primary
alone, or at most revise few features

MINES ARE OVER-TAXED
Rico Item

Rico ltem.-
Just why is it that the farmer does
everything in his power to hurt the
mining industry is more than We can
see, because in so doing he is hurting
himself as well. Especially is this
true in Colorado. The products of
the farmer are largely consumed by
the cities and mining camps of the
state, and with the decrease in the
population of the mining camps the
farmer must look elsewhere TO market
his produce, which process becomes
more costly as he gets away from
home. During every session of the
legislature there is some scheme or
bill afoot to hurt the mining counties
Of the state and because the agricul-
tural counties are in the majority,
some Of the most detrimental bills sue
ceed in getting thru. The mines al
ready pay taxes far in excess of what
they should have to, and as result,
many of them have had to shut down
for this very reason Why not make
the burden lighter instead of heavier
as is now the plan and which is be-
ing backed by the agricultural coun-
ties?

Dissatisfaction with the road policy
Of the Commission. We will admit
the Governor is justified in a criticism,
but We have not seen enough TO know
whether his is the proper one or not.
Concrete roads around Denver, scores
OF useless clerks in the central office
and dozens Of useless surveyors in the
field in lieu Of workmcn actually shov-

THE JOYS OF SHOPPING

When the women read how Mrs.
Harding is buying herself with shop
ping, in search Of the elaborate equip
ment she will need for her expert
ence in the White House, they feel
a thrill of sympathetic interest. Most
women would enjoy this chance to
buy beautiful things freely, about as
much as any other pleasure that the
first lady Of the land will have in
her varied life.
No man quite realizes the pleasure
that the normal woman gets out of
shopping. She has an inherited love
Of fine fabrics. and is trained from
girlhood TO a iscriminating sense Of
excellence in this kind of products.
Sne feels the same elation in securing
a nice piece of merchandise, that a
hunter does in capturing deer or
fisherman in landing a big trout.
The modern producers of textiles
and clothing improve each year in
their sense of harmony in colors and
design. Women who have any artis-
tic idea can't help being fascinated
by the beauty Of all these works of
human skill.
The satisfaction of shopping is not
all in the requirement of costly IA
brics. There is also pleasure in
making moderate resources go to
their uttermost limit The woman
who, after careful study of advertis-
ing and Of the material offered, re-

AN ANSWER WANTED

VIII some wise editor or individual
please explain to US, why, after ack-
nswledging the newspapers are the
best advertising mediums, the gov
ernment will send out paid agents
and at the same time beg the papers
to print this and that stuff, telling
the people when and where to pay and
for them TO do it for the benefit OF
the confiding public Free Of Charge.
Are not the newspapers, VINO do the
notifying, entitled to some remuner-
alton as well as the paid agent who
sets in his office and says: Come on
boys!"
Why is it the government will not
pay for its advertising as we'll as the
merchant? Suppose there were no
newspapers; wouldn't Uncle Sam have
a jolly time collecting his due?
Look at this:

Observation-Disclosures

Coyotes are Boshevsts that just won't be-
have themselves and like other unruly pests have
to be taken care Of ever often. Therefore,
the South Table Community Club has decided to
teach the coyotes "lesson" commencing at 10
o'clock on Friday, February 25. 1921. They will
go about it in this way. The following district
has been mapped out: South line-County line be-
tween sedgwick and Phillips County; West line
Roadruning south over the table from the town
OF Ovid; North line-the south bank of the South
Platte river and the East lne-one mile east of
the Mail Road. All coyotes within this tract of
rich farming land are hereby given warning to
hunt their holes. For at the above appointed
time many men with flivvers and shooting irons
Will line themselves up on all four sides and grad
ualy force toward the center and any coyote found
at large will be severly dealth with
However, for various good reasons it has
been especially decreed that no shooting irons,
commonly known as rifle shall be used Shot
guns, 20, 16. IL even 10 gauge are the accepted
weapons but in order to give all concerned fair
show, no coyote shall be peppered with shot larger
than No. or BIB,
In order to have the procession move with
some degree of order, four captains of the hunt
have been chosen, who will have charge of the
Soi'"Soue, anu VIII organize tne armies on the
north, south, east and west fronts Ed Humber
stone, the sheriffs son, will have charge of the
east line and Horace Parker will take care of the
army OF the west. At the head of the army
which will start from the river is William Schultz
and Walter Sprick will start proceedings on the
County line on the south 1t has been carefully
figured out that all the coyotes who haven't sense
enough to get into hole and all the brave men
who can survive the strenuous march will finally
center up at the Cannel farm near the old Charley
Ford place. and feeling certain that after stren-
uous days campaign it will be necessary to have
some substantial fare with which to fortify the
valiant army, The Julesburg Community Club
has determined to appear at the right time with
plenty of Chow" Every man and boy who can
pack gun should report to one of the four cap-
talns and be prepared to forward march" at the
appointed time. By the way, women are not
barred by any MEANS and are hereby extended
