MIGHT REPEAT HERSELF

California decided the presidential
contest of 1916. 1t rejected Hughes
and elected Wilson
The Progressives believe the COLD
en- State will play an equally impor-
,ant role in the election Of 19z4-
They base their hopes largely on the
following incident, which may be re-
srded as one of the miracles OF
American politics.
The politicians drafted the election
lrw= of California. Just as they have
lsafted the election laws of every
ciaer state. They did their best to
make it impossible for independent
candidates to get before the voters.
The two old parties wanted monop-
oily.
When the managers for La Follet1e
~-d Wheeler examined the California
election laws they found that in or
der to place La Toilette and Wheeler
electors on the official ballot, they
must prepare a petition bearing the
names of 25o00 qualified voters, and
that each voter must sign the petit
tion fourteen times-once for each
e,ector. and once "at large"-and
trat every signature must be ac-
konwIedged before notary public.
That was some job in view of the
fact that the Progressives did not
have even a skeleton of an organiza-
49, -, tho state
Here comes the miraculous part OF
the performance. Instead of 25,OOO
voters. $4,000 voters signed the La
Toilette and Wheeler petition, and
each voter put down his "John Han
cock" fourteen times, total of 700,-
900 signatures!
And the entire job was completed
in one day!
Is it any wonder that the old-line
politicians are in a blue funk, and
that the Progressives are confident
that California's thirteen electoral
votes will be placed in the La Fol-
lette and Wheeler column in Novem-
ber.
California shows the way to victory.

bull was bull and that if the ami

piece of paper that gives a list of
sires and dams and owners goin' back
to Crooked Shank, or some other dead
Scotchman- How could bull know
who his forefathers was and wheth-
er they come over in the Mayf1ower?
allus said I was from Missouri and
they had to show me.
Well they done it. seen it with

we seen 'em- The pigs was out of Or

this litter was another one from the
same kind of sows, but which was
sired by scrub boar and these pigs
weighed only rs pounds piece and
was only four weeks younger. They

FINE ARTS CONCERT
WAS MUCH ENJOYED

A new height of artistic interpre-
tation was reached Monday evening
by students Of the Fine Arts Depart
ment Of Western State College, who
presented twelve numbers in a con-
cert for the benefit of the Students
Loan Fund. The concert was not well
attended, perhaps because townspeo-
pie suspected many Of the numbers to
be given were not new to them.
Nevertheless, the rendering Of the diff
ferent pieces was superior, and with
out exception reflected credit on the
students and their instructors. A fea-
ture of note was the closing number,
two songs by the Ladies Quartet con-
sisting Of Misses Marjorie Peck, Sar-
ah Anderson, Leah Hartman and Pol
ly Welles. Altho coming at the end
Of long program, 80 pleased were
listeners that they remained seated

AUTO MAKES EVERY DAY
SATURDAY" IN SMALL TOWN

Denver Jobber:-
Saturday used to be the big shop
ping day in small towns. Business
was light on other days but Saturday
afternoon always brought rush. The
automobile has spread one days bust
ness over a whole week and has given
the small town merchant six Satur-
days instead Of one, so far As volume
Of trade is concerned.
An investigation into the influence
of the automobile upon business has
revealed many interesting things.
Fourteen million automobile owners
and their families have in the last ten
years, provided an additional market
for soap equal to the market Of the
whole United States at the time Of
the Civil War.
Motor transportation has facilitated
the sale Of farm products and has
brought millions Of dollars to the
farmers. Increased tourist travel has
enormously increased business in the
rural districts. Merchants on main
highways are carrying larger stocks
and better goods than ever before, and
they are selling them. The demand of
the passing motorist has brought sup
ply and the result has been beneficial
all along the line.
