LABOR SWINGS TO GRIFFITH.

The Denver Labor Bulletin in their
last issue came out strongly for Ben
Griffith for governor The editorial
says:
Mr.. Union Man, don't you think it
is about time to call halt and re-
fuse any longer to be made the goat!
The Bulletin believes that time has
come.
after reading the platforms adopt,
ed by both parties, The Bulletin is of
the opinion that the Republican
party's platform is the best for all the
people of Colorado and has the true
American ring to it, and it is in line
with all the big things this party has
accomplished for the good of the state
and nation. The Democratic partys
platform is filled with vagaries and
promises impossible of fulfillment
Comparing the candidates of both
parties on the state tickets, The Rul-
letin thinks the Republican party
has chosen a splendid lot of men and
women to present to the voters of
offices to which they aspire with
credit to their party and the state.
'The Bulletin asks the workingmen
and women of Colorado to give the
foregoing facts careful consideration
between now and Nov. T.. because we
believe it would be a backward step
to change our state administration at
this time. Think it over, union men
and women. 1t is your welfare that
is concerned and it is up to you to
say whether you want prosperity and
peace to continue"

BEET SUGAR OUTLOOK SOUND

The sugar beet harvest in western
states is under way. The quality of
the crop is good but the total estim.
ated tonnage of beets has decreased
from 7.7s2,0OO tons last year to S.
265,000 tons this year, resulting from
reduced acreage.
With the sugar industry slowly re.
covering from the decentralization
which followed the war and with an
estimated reduction of 100000 tons in
supplies available for the United
States from customary sources, the
future outlook for sugar is considered
fundamentally strong.
With sufficient tariff to prevent an
Inhalation of the western beet sugar
industry by foreign producers, this in
dustry will show a new development
that would have otherwise been i'm
possible.
This will mean additional acreage
in beets and distribution of millions
of dollars among the agricultural in
terests of the West for increased ac-
tivity in beet sugar production which
is sure to follow.

WE ARE LUCKY

Many people about Delta are inclin.
ed to complain of business depression,
but if we only knew it, we are far
more fortunate than those in other
localities.
/ Whether they come from east or
west, from other states, from other
counties or nearby towns, the verdict
is the same-the liveliest place they
have seen lately
One thing sure: We shall survive.
Farmers are raising everything eat
able, and if they can't sell it, they
can eat good share of it. And those
in town who can't go to California,
Florida or Texas, will also have to be
fed.
We may not have so many fur
coats, silk hose and automobiles, but
we can live without them for another
year. The industries here furnish a
good payroll. and all these families
will have to be fed, have coal, places
to live and clothing, which makes
business good for the merchant. Yes,
and some of them want the news from
week to week and subscribe for their
county newspaper.
So all in all this isn't such a bad
place to live in and let's smile and be
glad we don't live in the Near East"
wherever that is, and have to depend
on the moods of a self satisfied public
for our daily bread.

CITY TAXES TO BE
INCREASED TEN THOUSAND

Mr. John r. Charlesworth. city at
torney for Delta, on behalf of the
mayor and city commissioners of the
city of Delta. has filed with the Colo
RADIO State Tax commission a petit
tion to increase the city levy from 925
mills to II mills. in order to raise an
additional tax of approximately s1O,-
900.
The Colorado State Tax commission
has given notice of this petition for
permission to increase the city levy
so that protest can be entered by
property owners against this increased
levy.
Last spring the water rates were in
creased for the city of Delta, SO as
to give approximately $4,000 per an
mum more revenue to the city of
Delta than it had heretofore receiv.
ed.
Just what the purpose of this pro-
posed increase in the tax rate is has
not been taken up by the city coun.
Gil with the people. A public body
is nearly always willing to expend
all the money it can get but is there
not a serious danger. il this propos
ed tax increase is granted, together
with proposed increases which may be
applied for by other bodies, that the
process of taxation may proceed to
point where it is practically confisca-
ton?
Is not this proper time for re-
trenchment and economy, rather than
Increased expenditures? :.
Is not business liable to be para
iyzed and Investments made unremun-
erative?
These questions are serious ones for
our property owners to consider.

Good Shooting Story.

A farmer tells story of his shoot
ing. Says he: II was very much trou-
bled with these winged thieves (the
birds), for they made terrible havoc
among the corn. put scarecrows up
till I was tired, SO I took my gun,
loaded with powder and pellets, and
you should have seen the quantity l
brought down in one day. One morn
ing my boy rushed indoors and yelled:
Dad, hundreds Of birds among the
corn! took my gun, put in the pow
der, but could not find the shot, so I
thrust in handful of tacks and off l
ran. Getting to the corn I yelled pref
ty hard, and up flew the birds into
q tree. Being excited, / fired, and be-
hold every bird was nailed to the tree,
with their wings Tapping as If flying.
Struck with the sight, I stood watch
ing them, when the blessed things
pulled up the tree and flew away with
1t, leaving me in disgust"

In selecting birthday and Christmas
gifts for children in rural commune
ties, why not give purebred pig, calf,
or other animal? This Is the sugges-
ton Of the United States Department
Of Agriculture, which, with the various
states, Is conducting the "Better Sires
Better Stock" campaign. A recent
questionable study Of the utility value
Of purebred live stock showed, among
other results, that home influence Is
an important factor governing the
breeding Of superior domestic animals.
In fact, it ranks in importance next
to sales, fairs, and shows, taken coli
lectively. When parents show their in
terest in good stock the children are
more likely to do so.
One breeder told Of receiving some
purebred live stock as wedding gift
from his father-in-law. That begin
ming was an important influence, which
resulted in an entire herd of well-bred,

First Mint in America.

When the Spaniards landed in what
is now the Republic Of Mexico they
found themselves in an Indian state
having many Of the institutions Of civ
ilization. One of these, was mint
operated by the Aztecs, coming fiat
copper pieces Of an odd shape. These
were called siccapili, and two pieces Of
lesser denomination were known as the
zontle and olotl. Cacao beans served
the purpose Of small change, 20 beans
,equaling the value'Of one ol0tl, 20 olotl
making one zontle, and 20 Zontle one
siccapili. Following the conquest OF
the country in 1921 by Cortez, the
Spaniards set out to establish stable
system of government and finance for
the new colony. So they took over the
Aztecs' mint and remodeled it to suit
their own purposes. They also sought
out every possible source of gold and
other valuable metals.

Canary Islands.

The Canary islands represent one Of
those lands whose history is all in the
past, says the Christian Science Moni-
tor. The first mention Of them comes
through the elder Pliny, who tells how
the Romans learned Of their existence
through Juha, king Of Mauretania, and
he gives an account Of an expedition
which the king made to the islands
about the year 40 B. G. Pliny talks OF
"Canaria, so called from the multitude
of dogs of great size," and speaks OF
its palms and pine trees, while he men
lions also Nivaria, probably Teneriffe,
the land covered with clouds" There
after the Canary islands, save that they
may possibly be the Isles Of the Blest
of Ptolemy and Plutarch, sink back
into the unknown for over twelve hun
dred years.
