on State Legislation

For the renson that many of my
friends are wondering "Why I am a
candidate?" and as the Denver Post
says $50 the People Mny Know"
and as haven't the time to call on
each voter individually, I wish to say
thru your columns:
That. have always thought IL a
good thing to send citizens to the
legislature who are not profession
nj politicians, so that when this
nomination came my way I accepted,
fearing. that II I let It 60 by. some
hard-boiled politician might grab it
up. for consider TINT they are too
much under the control Of party
prejudices and party bosses to make
useful legislators. Other reasons
Why I am a candidate for Repre-
sentative to the State Legislature
are:
Because. feel that our taxes are
ton high. can and must be reducNd.
I believe that the home and land
owner are carrying more than their
share and the holders Of other forms
Of property less than their share Of
the burdens Of taxation. That the
cost Of government IL excessive and
should BE- reduced to . minimum.
Because, I an IN q position TO
know about the serious problem
confronting the farmer Of getting .
fair return for his invssmsnt and
labor and believe that the state can
find some way 70 help solve this
problem.
Because. I believe that the man
who labors with his hands b . big
snd important cog In the great ma.
chine Of industry: that he deserves
treatment - Q brother and his Just
rights must b respected. Prosper

equal property for the business

institutions IN this county should r.
esive proper support from he state.

on County Affairs

The Democrats present to the
voters of jefferson county the name
of Mrs. Evangeline Cummings, for
the important position of Superin-
tendent of Schools. This choice
should should meet the approval of
the the voters of the county who
have the interest of GUS schools at
hear. She is an ideal candidate, a
woman Of mature wears. one who
has had a large and varied exper-
fence in school matters. For some
years she has specialized in kinder
esrten and primary work, and you
know the young need attention. Gas
the twie is bent. the tree is inclin-
cd" Those who have the interest
Of our schools at heart will make no
mistake by putting an K after the
name Of Evaneeline Cummings.
The same may be said Of an the
candidates on the Democratic ticket.
While none Of these can "point with
pride" to the many years they have
had access to the public test, they
can point with pride to their splen-
did citizenship and to their splendid
qualifications for the position they
seek. Our county certainly needs .

nuainted with new forms and new
faces. Those who have occupied
these places for so many years let
them retire and Give happy ever

Let this riot Of extravaganza

Immediately great light will fit

1t is true that most of our taxes

pie as whole, regardless of politics
want the best possible schools and
roads. Every candidate for state of.
flee on the Democratic ticket this
year, from William II. Sweet, candi-
date for governor, to the individual
candidates for the State. Legislature,
is on record In favor Of good schools
and good roads. But they believe that
economy in the expenditures of our
vast school and road funds Is one Of
the first things necessary. Extrava-
giant expenditures, such as have been
encouraged by the present state ad-

Mr.. L. P. Kennedy,
Editor Arvada Enterprise,
Arvada. Colorado,
Dear Sir:
would very much appreciate the
publication of the following article
in the "open" column of The Arvada
Enterprise.
The name of John F. Vivian does
not appear on in the advertised de-
linquent tax list now being publish
cd in The jefferson County Republi-
can. The absence of his name,
however, is not due to the fact that
his 1921 taxes were paid prior to
Ocober A, 1922, nor to any special
privilege obtained thru my office.
Mr.. Vivian has tremendous
influence over the Jefferson Coun-
ty Republican, probably by reason
! of being a large stockholder. The
manager" fso-cslleh) of that pub
