THE Denver Express says Harding now experiences
the grief that Woodrow Wilson met up with. We have
noticed that of high and low degree usually get what
is coming to them later Presidents
exception to the rule.
WE note that from being red-handed anarchist and
behskered Bolshevki, Claiming Sweet, in the Denver
Post becomes who has cleaned slightly toward
socialism Also observe that the Post is extremely
anxious to be useful to the incoming Governor Thank
God for have Governor coming up who cannot
be seduced by the twin DEVILS Tam and Bon.
WITH the organization of a powerful farm bloc in
Congress and in the Colorado legislature things
ing up for that branch of industry Also it is fair
that the bloc Will take active
pathetic interest in the things that interest and
labor generally Even if their efforts Intellectual
will be pointed later efforts which by
their consideration will be strengthened and
easily obtained
TAKING Gunnison County whole. 1T did we'll in
the election. Gunnspn No. has plenty of occasion
ashamed of itself both the state and county ticket
The very best each knitted and in fact the
condition is well understood There is small
lation in the defeat of VIM Whalen Unless certain
democrats boast Ted Knowles refuses work with his
colleague Mergeman will have county attorney
occasionally votes his own ticket.
ABOUT the first act Of Governor Sweet after being
assured of his election the appointment of Hale
Smith, his trusted adviser during the campaign
position of Private Secretary If all the ap-
pontments we'll considered this one, the
Of his administration is assured Hale Smith has been
of strength the Committee all dur
ing the campaign and his judgment has apparently
faultless He will be both loyal and able
COUNTY after county won by Vincent" shrieked
the Charley Adams papers in Montrose and Grand
tion. Then, far have been able to learn Mr.
Vincent did not carry county the district Holy
smoke! how unreliable Republican is. When Charley
tells about the charms young lady put i'm

PROBABLY Governor Sweet cannot actually abolish
the Rangers With antagonistc senate he go
that but with Democratic house his veto
= he and doubtless will cut off their meal ticket and
their lingerie bill Also they under his orders and
will not be delegated with the duty of budozing citizens
and otherwise raising hell In fact it is be presumed
that they will hvve to to earning living and dis
continue drawing from the state. Fortified with
their experience Of the last two years most of them will
doubtless go to distilng and boot1egging.
NOW watch the bolsheviks and socialists take charge
of things Most anything is to be expected that VIM
E. Sweet is elected Governor. Quite possibly however
things wild go about usual without any undue dis
turbance. Bon and Tam continue insult the intel
gence of list of readers several times day
Charley Thomas and Tyson Dimes make fresh assaults
the Democratic party, middlemen may continue tt
skin the farmers for time least But
along lines that will denote road for public bettermen
and at the head of the program will be observed tht
Governor of this sovereign state Verify the people
made a good start
MANY people are busy trying to find better ways Of
doing things that should have be done at all
There is progress in merely finding better way dt
a useless thing There a time when, instead Of
making dead branches less ugly the should be laid
the of the In industrial life insti
that should arise Instead of going
of the and eradicating the evil max,
elaborate for permanently dealing with thu
distressing effect This of 1t woult
almost that good deal of this halfway work
posely invented steer people from the
of things.-Henry Ford in Dearborn Independent.
