THE SAFEST WAY

After all about the soundest way
to settle the matter as to how to
vote is simply to put an X after every
Republican candidate on the ticket
beginning with the Republican presi-
dent at the head of the list and run
ming clear through to the Republican
committeeman and committeewoman.
BY so doing you will be insured of a
guarantee of four years of competent,

DON'T BE MISLED

There is no question about where
the tariff on sugar, on wool, on hides,
and many other articles would be
placed if the Democratic party
should secure control of the next
congress.
Senator Adams, in speech at
Greeley the other day, said he be-
lieved in tariff on sugar; that tariff
on sugar was all right. The senator
is running for office on platform
which states absolutely the opposite.
The senator is either wrong or his
party platform is in error. Consist.
ency thou art a jewel but few possess
thee"
The opposition party have been
looking for an issue-a popular issue
if you please, ever since the begin
ming of the campaign We have noted
their maneuvers from the time they
first started to fight on oil" The
probing in the "oil scandal" soon
ceased when it resulted in involving
many of their own crowd.
Just the other day national Demo
cratic committeeman from Colorado,
John T. Barnett, announced that he
intended to build a pipeline from
Cisco, Utah, to Grand Junction. It is
a well-knwon fact Mr.. Barnett has
been in the oil business, lobbying at
Washington in the interests Of a large
western oil concern.
They talk about Fall, Denby. ct al
They have attempted to prove many
things but soon dropped the matter.
We have no brief for Fall or any other
CROOKED" man whether in public Of
flee or out OF IT. If they or others
are guilty they should and will be
brought to an accounting.
Then the Democrats were going to
"scare" Coolidge a bit on the Ku Klux
Klan issue. Failing in the attempt
they hurried up the case Of saving
the dear housewives Of America
$4,000 daily on the tariff on sugar
President Coolidge remained truly
American when he took the matter
under advisement and said mo" He
told them plainly his reason for not
lowering the schedule. He knew II

TENANT KICKED
ON ROOF LEAK;
EV|CTED
Woman Who Refused to Pay
Rent Until Repairs Were
Made Is Put Out.

Refusing to pay rent until her
leaky ceiling was repaired, Mrs. N.
1. Alden, Of 210 Seventh street
southwest, was evicted from prop.
erty at that location yesterday. She
owes three months rent which she
has refused to pay because the
owner, Isaac Scheinerman, would
not repair her ceiling, she said.
Mrs. Alden said she was made to
move out about year and q half
ago for a weeks time, while repairs
were made and that she has claimed
that she should not be made to pay
rent for that time, particularly since
she lost q great amount OF business
from that forced cessation OF ac-
tivities.
She has occupied the property for
about three years, selling cakes and
pies. When she moved into the
building she paid SIS a month, later
the rent was raised to $25, and now
the owner demands $50, which she
refused to pay while the ceiling was
in such an Unsatisfactory condition,
according to her story.
Mrs. Alden claims to have made
most of the repairs to the building
since she has been there, except for
the repairs made q year and a hair
ago. At that timo she was given
only three days notice, she says,
that she would have to move while
they improved the property, and 1t
occurred during the busy season.
when such move meant much
lOsa to her in BUSINESS.

Borah of Idaho, who Is not thought

his conviction that q third party in

It happens that in his state there

that he will.

that La Toilette. if he did run,
would carry the States above named

It is perceived, nevertheless, that

ticket should carry his own State OF
wisconsin, the Farmer.Labor State
Of Minnesota, the Non-Partisan
League State Of North Dakota, the
strongly radicalized State Of South
Dakota, the State Of Montana, which

State Of Washington, which has
just elected the radical Senator

The amazing fact would then de-
velop that in these circumstances
the Democratic party, in order tc
prevent the Republican party from
getting a majority Of votes in the
Presidential Electoral College, would
have to carry only the ten "solid'
Southern States Plus the seven

one Northern State Of New York.
The Republicans could carry all
the other States in the Union, out
side of the ones above indicated
and yet have only two hundred and
fifty-four votes in the electoral
college, whereas two hundred and
sixty.five and half votes are ncc.

into the House Of Representatives
