vrNcENr,s CANDIDACY.

Hon. Merle D. Vincent. Republican
candidate for congress is among the
most widely discussed candidates so
far this campaign. 1t seems that a
large number of the constituency in
this vicinity are in favor of electing
a congressman who not only possesses
all the qualifications. but one who is
right in the prime of life.
Mr.. Vincent favors law which
will bring relief to water users under
reclamation projects. He firmly be-
lieves that the time of payment should
be extended. He favors legislation
which would spread payments under
the Gunnison tunnel over period OF
seventy years, or 81 per acre per year
This amount, together with the oper.
ating cost, is about all the average
farmer under the project can ever pay
Elsewhere in this issue will be
found Mr.: Vincent's progressive prin
ciples. Consider them carefully.

underhanded methods. A vote for

DEMOCRATS AND oEFLArloN

Democratic brethern are having a
hard time deciding just where to
stand on the question Of deflation.
When it was first charged that the
Wilson administration had precipi,
tated deflation. the charge was vehem-
antly denied by high authorieies.
Then a few weeks later it was as
serted by an equally high Democra-
tic authority that the only mistake
was that the administration did not
start deflation sooner.
Now a new position is taken. II
is charged that the deflation, wnIcn
was precipitated several months be-
fore the Republican administration
came into power, was brought about
by the Republicans.
However, there will be no possibil.
ity of removing from the minds OF
American farmers the recollection
that they were hard hit in the Sum-
mer and Fall of 1920 and that they ex,
perienced no degree of recovery what
ever until the Harding administration
took three measures of relief: enact
ment of an emergency agricultural
tariff, revival of the War Finance
corporation, and increase of funds for
the Farm Loan Board.

WATSON STEWART CANDIDATE
FOR COUNTY Commissioners

Watson H. Stewart, Republican
candidate for county commissioner
for the first district, needs no intro
duction to the people of the city OF
Delta.
In the early days of this county he
was first appointed as one of the
county commissioners. During his
term of Office the North Delta bridge
was built.
Mr.. Stewart has been a resident Of
Delta for years and is one of the
most substantial citizens and taxpay-
erS.
Delta was adopted in 1912, Mr.. Stewart
was elected to carry out the new
form Of government, being chosen as
commissioner of public affairs and ex.
officio mayor. In 1915 he was re-
elected and served until 1917, when
W. d. Hines was elected.
Mr.. Hines resigned the position
after about one year. The two other
city commissioners appointed Mr..
Stewart on recommendation OF the
citizens of Delta and he held the po.
sltlon until 1871 when he retired.
During the period dating back to
1887 when Mr.. Stewart first landed
in Delta county, his career has varied.
Ranching and business pursuits have
been his principal undertakings.
During these times, when the indi-
vidual taxpayer, as well as the heav-
lest taxpayer wants the very best for
every dollar OF public money which
goes into the county .treasurer-a
vote for Watson H. Stewart for coun.
ty commissioner. will be step in the
right direction.
He has been tried. His past record
speaks for itself. He is honest and
capable in every way. II you want
good government in this county vote
for him on November 7th.
The Delta independent., 1922-10-20

Government is called upon today
to function for those who can not
function for themselves The funda-
mental law of supply and demand
has been in a large measure discard
ed for the time being, at least. Gov
ernment such as we enjoy in the U.
s. A, was designed by our forefath-
ers to give freedom to all of our peo-
pie; to make it possible for every
-----a and woman to enjoy happiness;
to follow such vocations as the in
dividuals might choose for themselves,
to make money or lose money; to give
equality and justice. Yet some of us
are led to believe-by our own pocket
books-that we are not getting the
very best out of our government. But
after ALL aren't we just bringing up
the rear after licking the kaiser?

Storage houses for perishable crops
are questionable. Grains might be
stored to very good advantage for
the producer. The supply and demand
regulate prices to large extent. We
all live and profit off of the other
fellow. For instance, if the drouth
hits the Dakotas or the hail visits a
section in Kansas, or water shortage
is dominant in eastern Colorado, all
these conditions put together produce
shortage and we naturally '1ive off
of the other fellow" Nevertheless,
the farmer suffers. The agricultural
industry needs relief in the way, as
we see it, of lower cost Of production,
which can only be brought about by
more desirable system of credits.
