The Sl625 you pay for the Hudson Coach goes
for qualities that are essential to genuine utility.
Closed bodies mounted on cars comparable to
the Super Six in performance and enduring
reliability cost $500 to $1,000 more than the
Hudson Coach.
Confirm this by comparing open car prices.
The difference between open and closed car
prices. for the most part. represents what you
pay for fancy body fittings
The Coach Endures
The Hudson Coach provides every closed car
comfort. 1t is sturdy, long lasting and good to
look at. You will be proud of it.
But your greatest qualification will come from
the performance OF the car. In the Super Six
no one ever need give way when real motor
performance is concerned.

Everything that goes into or on a motor car

So when you consider the two types of closed

If you use closed car to impress by its luxury

But if you have first regard for car performance
look to the chassis. All reliability and low cost

LARGE INCREASE SHOWN
IN VEGETABLE PRODUCTION

Colorado is rapidly becoming one
of the most important states in the
production of vegetables for market.
Reports of county assessors to the
State Immigration Department show
that the acreage devoted to vegetables
for market in the state this year is
the largest on record, being nearly
double that for 1919. The most nota-
BILE increases are in lettuce. cabbage,
onions and caulifour.
The following table shows the in
crease in acreage devoted to leading
truck crops in the state since 1919.
The 1919 figures are from the federal
census report, being the acreage ac-
tually harvested that year, while the
1922 figures are assessors reports on

Every newspaper in the United States
Republican and Democrat alike, is

"Prior to 1890 the United States
had been buying practically all its
tinplate in Europe. Those econom-
lists who believed in the Ford doc
trines said thin industry that worth
anything at all can stand on it's own
feet and they opposed protective
tariff saying that a protective tariff
would add to the cost of every can
ned commodity the public consumes.
Republicans in Congress rejected the
Ford doctrine and established a pro-
tective tariff on tinplate with the re-
suit that an enormous tinplate indus
try was built up in the United States
and through competition prices were
reduced and the American people
bought tinplate cheaper than they
had ever bought it under free trade.

ible at first hearing. but it will not
stand the test of reason nor the facts

GOVERNMENT MUST BE
BASED ON MAJORITY RULE

committed himself unreservedly to
the proposition that Americans must
be free to live and achieve. A free
American has the right to labor with
gone in this republic when group
domination is reflected in our laws.
This is elemental. fundamental
Americanism. A grounp of workers
is within its rights in bargaining col
lectively-though group of employ
ers who might do SO is a conspiracy:
but a majority of group of workers
has no right to impose its will upon a
| minority OF the same group OF work
ers outside. The only majority in
this country entitled to coerce a min
| ority, is a majority of all the people
OF all the groups. II we do not re-
gard the will Of such majority su-
preme, we have no principle on which
to base our institutions.
It works out unfortunately at times.
and majorities must be restrained. as
the President says, to the protection
of minorities. But every other prin-
ciple on which governments were an
ciently erected has gone by the board.
Wisdom, goodness, birth, prescriptive
right are not longer a sufficient basis
OF authority. All that the world has
left is a count Of noses. a division OF
the total by two and agreement that
the views Of the bigger moiety shall
prevail. This is not an ideal method
Of locating authority. for 1t may hap
pen that the minority may contain

majority 80 per cent of the ignorance

candidate for Lieutenant Governor on

ticket, nor was there any mention OF
the fact that Senator Billy Adams of

nation for Governor and who would
have run in the primaries for that
Office had Messrs. Sabin and Jefferson
been willing to withdraw in his favor
was hold over Senator from his dis
trict. The fact is Senator Rockwell
can do much more for this district
and indeed the entire Western Slope
as Lieutenant Governor than he
could ever hope to do as one of thirty
five senators in the Colorado legisla-
ture. We happen to know also that
before Senator Rockwell allowed his
name to be presented to the Republi-
can Assembly in Denver, he discussed
this very point very thoroughly with
eight or ten of the leading lawyers of
Western Colorado, and several from
the Eastern Slope and it was at their
advice and counsel that he decided to
remain in the race as the Western
Slope candidate for Lieutenant Gov
ernor Our Democratic friends need
have no fear that the interests of this
district will be looked after in legal
and proper manner in the State SEN

wins the nomination and election for

SENATOR NICHOLSON ON SUGAR

On August 8th Senator S. D. Mich
olson addressed the Senate at length
on the sugar beet schedules of the
Tariff Bill. He made an excellent
argument in behalf of the beet sugar
industry, presenting carefully compil-
ed data in support Of each one of his
statements. He showed beyond ques-
tion that the encouragement of the
industry in this country would be of
great benefit, not only to those engag-
ed in it, but also to the ultimate con-
sumner of sugar. In this connection
the Junior Colorado Senator said:
"Mr. President, think it fair
conclusion that had it not been for
the development Of the beet-sugar in
dustry, thus giving us two sources of
sugar supply, the world would be pay
ing far more per pound for its sugar
than it is today. Not only did the dis
covery that sugar could be produced
commercially from beets greatly en-
large the sugar-producing area of the
world, but prior to that time the
cane sugar production Of the Tropics
produced by slave labor. was most
primitive and wasteful. From the
outset the production Of sugar from
beets was under highly scientific
methods, evolved by the worlds lead,
ing chemists, and gradually the scien-
tific knowledge developed in the beet
sugar industry has been applied to
the cane-sugar industry of the Trop-
les, until today their primitive mills
and wasteful processes have given
way to the scientific successes which
first developed the beet-sugar indus,
try and their modern mills are as ex,
tensive as are the beet-sugar factor.
les.
These individuals who had uncon'
scionably profiteered on sugar in 1920
are the same people who are now
shedding crocodile tears as to the
price the poor laboring man will have
to pay for his sugar If we enact tar
i'll bill which will protect the domes
tic sugar industry

ALL EUROPE WORKING TO
CUT DOWN IMPORTS OF FOOD

Washington Aug. 23.-The Associat.
ed Press carried news article out
of Paris to the effect that the French
compel millers to use larger percent
age of substitutes for wheat in max.
ing flour This is to enable the
French wheat crop to go farther in
making flour and avoid the importa-
tion of wheat from the United States
and other countries.
In this connection Nat c. Murray.
Crop Statistician Of the United States
Department of Agriculture, who has
just returned from an investigation
Of European conditions, reports that
all of Europe is bending every ener-
gy to raise as much food as possible
in order to cut down on importations
OF food products. Mr.. Murray reports
that agriculture in western Europe
which includes all Europe except Rus
sia. is rapidly resuming normal
basis.
These facts are very interesting
in view of the propaganda being put
out by importers, International bank
ers, free traders, Democratic politi-
clans, etc, to the effect that the Am.
erican farmer may expect an increase
in the European demand on his prod
ucts in event the present Underwood

with the manufactured products OF

REPUBLICAN CONGRESS
ELECTED 1918 STARTED
SLASHING EXPENSES
Reduced Democratic Executives Re
Nearly Four Billions

Washington, Aug. 23.-The impor-
tant part in which Congress has play
ed in the financial retrenchment and
economy program of this administra-
ton Martin B. Madden (Rep), of
Illinois, chairman of the House Com
mittee on Appropriations, cites the
fact that even before the Republican
party came into control Of the exeeu-
tive end of the government, the Re-
publican Congress elected in 1918
made a great savings to the county.
This was accomplished by its cutting
down the requests for appropriation
made upon it by the Democratic ex-
duced the requests for appropriations
made by Democratic cabinet officers
and other Democratic executives in
the sum of $500. 100000. This saw.
ing is more than the total appropria-
tions made by the present Republican
Congress for the coming fiscal year.
To phrase 1t another way, the Repub-
lican Congress elected in 1918. by re-
ducing the expenditures Of the Dem
ocratic executives. saved enough mon
ey to run the government for the
coming fiscal year.
Representative Madden's statement
in detail is as follows:
upon assembling in extra session
in May, 1919, the new Republican
Congress was confronted with the
task of passing before the commence
ment OF the new fiscal year on July
1, 1919, eight of the largest Of the sup
ply bills which the Democratic Con-
gress had failed to enact into law be-
fore it went out of power. Those bills
at the time of their failure aggregat'
ed 67.975,974 The total of the
same eight bills after their reenact-
ment by the newly elected Republi-
can Congress was $2.S28,2S3,432. The
first legislative action of the new
Congress resulted in the passage OF
these bills before the fiscal year be.
gan and in the decrease Of the appro.
priations proposed by the Democratic
Congress for the fiscal year 1920 by
$939, 1926
1.-The estimates for the fiscal years
ending June 80, 1921, and 1922. res
pectively, were prepared by the VIII
son administration and submitted to
the Republican Congress. The reduc
tions made by Congress in those esti
mates aggregate slightly more than
$2.950 0,000, 900.
"The total reductions which the
Republican Congress effected in the
amounts proposed to it by the Demo
cratic administration for the fisca
years 1920, 1921 and 1922, reach SO,
800, 100000, a sum which exceeds by
nearly $15O,000,000 the total Of the
appropriations just made for the fis
cal year ending June 80, 1923.
"In addition to the reductions ef
fected in the estimates OF the Demo
traffic administration and the bills O.
the Democratic Congress. the Republi
can Congress, in connection with the
preparation OF the appropriation bill
for the fiscal years 1920. 1921 ant
1922 also brought about the repeal o
appropriations totalling $1,140,000,
900.
"The reductions made by the Re
publican Congress in the appropria
tions for the fiscal years 1920, 1921
and 1922 are reflected in the follow
ing table:
