THE KHAN INCORPORATES.

The expected has happened in Den
yer and the Ku Klux Klan long in the
embryo has at last come out in the
open and filed its articles of incorpora-
ton with Secretary of State Carl S.
Milliken. With the District Attorney
and the Attorney General of the state
both open in their declaration that no
acts of violence will be permitted in
Denver, the public may feel reason
able degree of security. However it
is unfortunate that the state must
give sanction to its existence at this
time.

Do you realize the Importance of getting adver-
tising copy prepared early?
You know old friend procrastination. He's
cousin to the cows tail.
Why follow when you can lead?
Supposng all your customers left their shopping
your store until an hour before were closing up at
great confusion you couldn't give service and
toners would leave the store dissatisfied
WE'LL in a way that's what you often ask the
newspapers You wait until the ninth hour to
pare your copy and when it reaches the office
pect the compositors to do two hours work in one.
D. It can't be DONE
The result is that your advertisement is slapped
together in great haste with chance for and
without proper display. Hcan't be otherwise.
Stop that old habit Of putting off until the last
day. last and the last minute to send your copy
to the newspaper office
Get it out early when you have time to think and
prepare it properly. Then send it to the newspaper Of
flee two or three days ahead That will give the
paper time to prepare your advertisement properly
You can see the logic Of it. It will mean better
ads better service and better results
That's what you want. That's why you advertise
Give the newspaper chance
Apply the Golden Rule.

"TO BE OR NOT TO BE"
Springfield Now Counting Fingers
Eeny, Meeny, Miny, Moo! With
Railroad in Balance.

The question that puzzled Bill
Shakespeare Great Dare about the
year when Baca county's first project
ed railroad was printed on beautifully
laid out maps is still the handspring
of hope and expectations of the citi-
zens of that hustling, prosperous, but
still unsatisfied city. Is it "to be or
not 20 be ?" The matter stands just
about like the famous testimony Of the
careful witness, "somc say, etc"
The hopes of all interested beat high
the first of the week when announce
ment was made from Dodge City ap-
parently on the best authority that the
road from Santanta to Springfield
would be constructed this year. After
two days of unalloyed joy came the
statement by Gen. Freight Agent j.
r. Koontz from Topeka that the road
would be constructed from Santanta
to a point south of johnson City, a
distance of fifty-eiRht miles and fifty
miles from Springfield, but that it
would not be run farther at least this
year. The Baca county people of
course are also hoping for help from
the Byers road now being constructed
to Liberal, but il is not generally be-
lieved that road car be constructed
any further than the point where
bonds can be issued to assist it. The
Santa Fe of course can build without
any help from bond issues.

RECEIVER IN CHARGE
Much Discussed u. S. Filling Station
Trust Now in the Hands of
Receiver.

Last week at Trinidad Judge Hol-
lenbeck heard the petition of certain
holders of stock in the U. S. Filling
Station Co., through their attorney
Judge d. b. Kinkaid for the appoint
ment of receiver to take charge of
the company's assets. The petition
was concurred in by Attorney A. c.
Gordon, president and attorney of the
company, as the best way to handle
the complicated affairs of the concern.
The court has appointed w. ]. Fred
erick of Las Animas as receiver, and
he has retained the firm Of Hillyer &
Kinkaid as attorneys. The company
at one time had options on long
string Of filling stations extending all
through the valley, and had actual pos
session of a number of them. Through
various law suits and other means it
is now reduced to where it is actually
running only one station-at La Junta.
1t was suits involving title to others
and many notes and accounts due, and
is believed to be perfectly solvent. Mr..
Frederick is now in Denver making
up a report of the assets to be sub
mitted later to the court. There are
numerous stockholders in Lamar and
along the whole valley who are deeply
interested in the company and it is be-
lieved its assets will be best conserv-
ed by the proposed method Of handling
them.
