PROCLAMATION
To the people of Pueblo:
Loyalty to community and common
wealth has always been a distinctive
characteristic of Pueblo's citizens.
Whatever the occasion. her people
have ever been quick to respond to the
call of the city and in turn to that
of the state. In commerce and bust
ness. as well as in governmental af-
fairs. Pueblo people stand ready to
pledge their support to the common
cause.
Now comes a time when the voice
of destiny sends forth call to Pueblo
to rally TO the standard OF her in
dustries. BY standing by local en-
terprises we will strengthen them and
SO make for greater prosperity for
ourselves. By keeping our dollars at
home VIC cooperate with and support
our factories and mills and keep our
citizens at work.
In our daily rounds We should pur-
chase, whenever possible. products
made in our city and within our state
To this end has been organized the
Colorado Made Goods Club which Is
engaging In n movement to secure
the pledge OF Colorado people Ito buy
Colorado Made Goods and to Make an
Effort to get Colorado Made Goods"
I therefore enthusiastically endorse
the Colorado Made Goods movement
and set aside the week of October

JUG0.SlAV|A KING IS

from wound in his stomach. receiv-
ed from IA bullet or the fragment of
n bomb during the recent attempt
made on his life in Belgrade, accord

The rumors say that when he was
injured Alexander insisted on being
taken to Paris and that since his stay
there the wound has developed more
seriously.
An attempt was made late last June
in Belgrade to assassinate Alexander,
then the prince regent, with n bomb
Belgrade advices said the prince was
not injured but that one man was
killed and three were wounded. AL

that. according to the party rules. the
national committee from one of tho
states II that rule is binding. It
limits the choice to some fifty men.
The group that wants a change claims
that this rule is not binding or that
II IT is binding, it cap be changed
This aspect of the situation is too
complex and technical to interest the
public. But there are a good many
million voters who are interested in
demanding that the members of the
national committee get about their
factional squabbling and equip them
sleeves for effective management OF
the congressional campaign next year
In entering this campaign next
year. for the election of a whole lower
house of congress and third of tho
senate, there arc two suggestions
voluntary contribution, which would
do a good deal not merely for the
fortunes of the Democratic party but.
in n more important way. for the good
of the country as a whole.
The first suggestion is that the
Democrats pledge themselves. IL and
when they get control of the house
and senate. to abolish the seniority
rule in the selection of committee
chairmen. It is this seniority rule
which gives most of the places of
power in the house and senate to men
whose adaptation to those places is
no greater than the mere fact that
they have been unusually successful
in getting themselves reelected for
many years. 1t is this seniority rule
that now causes most of the weak
ness of leadership and the incfficiency
from which the Republicans in con-
troll of the senate and house suffer,
and from which the country suffers
even more than the party does.

on the part OF disintercsted and loyal
Democrats to achieve both harmony
and energy, is not easy to Determine.
About the net result of 1t there
can be no doubt. That result Is like
the result OF all factionalism in any
organization-a degree of inertness
and lack of forward movement in the
organization which is most unpromis-
ing for future results. The organizs-
ton has wabbled along in this state
for a year past. At one time. ex-
Congressman Scott Ferris of Okla
homa was informally more or less
agreed upon as compromise choice.
but then 1t occurred to somebody that
MIR. Ferris had been identified with
one of the most unfortunate episodes.
from Democratic point of view. of
recent years, namely. the letter in
which ex-President Wilson, in the fall
of 1918. asked the country to give
him a partisan democratic congress.
This episode appears to have ruled
Mr.. Ferris out.
AT present, the man whom the ad
vocates of a change are putting for
ward strongly is Daniel S. Roper of
North Carolina. who was commission
er of internal revenue under Mr.. Nc
Adoo when the latter was secretary
of the treasury. The effort to put
Mr.. Roper in control will undoubted-

meeting. Everybody admits that Mr..
Roper is a man of high quality, with
much organizing ability. But every
body also admits that Mr.. White is a
man of high character. whose per-
sonal quality is an asset to the Demo-
cratic organization.
The whole thing is a great pity
from the Democratic point Of view.
What they most need. IN anticipation
of next year. is a chairman OF the
live wire variety. whose past affilia-
tions do not subject him to any
charge of partisanship either toward
Cox or McAdoo. who has the energy
and Willingness to jump into hard
job of countrywide organization with
zeal and effectiveness. In short.
what the Democrats need is a Demo-
cratic equivalent of Will Hays. 1t
ought to be easy to find such a man,
and such a man ought to be glad to
take the job. II he turns out to be
as good man as VIII Hays. he can
make the opportunity yield him as at
tractive fruits In the shape of a career
as Will Hays now has.
The thing is really very urgent
from.a a Democratic point of view, and
1t ought TO be approached with a
willing submerging of every faction :
al point of view. But the Democratic
rift between those who last year
nominated Cox and who hate Wilson
and McAdoo. and, on the other hand.
those whose primarily loyalty lis to
Wilson and McAdoo. is very deep.

of new man difficult is the cH-im

In order to throw more light on
the important problem of the drift
of population from rural sections
to cities, and to determine, II pos

United States Department of Agri-
culture during the last year has
made a study of one farm commu-
nifty each in New York. Maryland.
and West Virginia, in cooperation
with the colleges OF agriculture.
The type of study has been his
toricaI and analytical. covering the
las: 100 years. The special ques-
tions at issue in this community
analysis are the migration of
young people from the farms to the
town and city" "the remedy for
overmigration;" 'the influence of
farm communities upon national
life" The results of these studies
will be published during the ensu-
ing year.
The variations in social life in
communities which are founded
upon different types of agriculture
are being studied in dairy, grain.
and truck farming localities. wheth-
er the people differ according to the
types of farming. and, II so, in what
respect they and their institutions
vary. are the questions at issue.
