For State Senator
To the Republican Voters of the Twenty
third Senatorial District:
I hereby announce myself as a candi
date for nomination as state senator at
the primary election on Sept. 12.
Should I secure this nomination and
subsequent election I pledge myself to
use my best efforts to secure such re
medial legislation as the people of Crow
ley and Otero counties may desire.
C. S. CULP
Governor Nails Lie
“The statement which I find circu
lated by a Denver newspa|>er thruout
eastern Colorado to the effect that I
vetoed the Farm Loan act at the last
session of the legislature, I brand as a
wilful malicious lie,” said Governor
Carlson in an address at Ordway on
Monday evening. “I did not vote such
a measure as there was none presented
me. There was such a law on the
statute books which was then in the
courts for u decision as to its legality.
This law was declared unconstitution
al because it provided for the loan of
the money by an unbonded land board
when it should have been by a bonded
state treasurer,” he concluded.
The attempt of certain people to mis
lead and falsify concerning the position
of Samuel D. Nicholson on the liquor
question will not succeed in face of the
strong resolution and pledge adopted at
the Republican state assembly. The
resolution is as follows:
•‘We pledge ourselves to the unqualified
and continued enforcement of the pro
hibition laws of this state, and we oppose
any and all measures including the pro
posed initiative “beer amendment" so
called, which will in any manner tend to
abrogate or render inefficient the pro
visions of the existing law, and declare
that the adoption of the so-callad “beer
amendment” will render the enforce
ment of the present prohibition law
practically impossible."
WAR AVIATORS
Will be Seen in Sensational Stunts at
the State Fair
Two European war aviators, Frank
Champion, a Frenchman, and Laddie
Laird, a Britisher, will loop-the-loop,
fly upsido down, destroy a fort front the
sky and perform other aeronautical
maneuvers and evolutions at the Colo
rado State Fair, Pueblo, Sept. 21 and 22.
Champion flies a Bleriot monoplane.
He is the only sky pilot still performing
in this type of machine, which killed
Lincoln lleachey and Harry Niles. He
is the oldest flier, in point of service,
of those still living. He was wounded
in the thigh while flying over Ger
man lines before Paris, in the first as
sault on that citadel.
Laird is only 20 years old, and is the
world’s youngest loop-the-loop artist.
His special stunt is called tha “Tango
Koll” which is said to be more sensa
tional than Art Smith’s “Insanity
Flight.” He flies a biplane.
There will be a monoplane-biplane
race, for which a special trophy is
offered and the aviators will attempt to
established a new world’s altitude re
cord, in order to win the SI,OOO bonus
offered by the fair and the special trophy
offered by Secretary L. G. Samuels.
The pledge of Samuel D. Nicholson to
give the state an honest business admin
istration and thus to bring about a sub
stantial reduction in taxes is meeting
with hearty approval from all parts of
Colorado. Taxes are too high and
every citizen in this county knows it and
feels the uselessness and injustice of it
Mr. Nicholson says our government is
handicapped rather than helped by the
army of taxeaters in the form of un
necessary boards, bureaus and commis
sions and their multitude of employees,
multiplying the necessary expenses of
the administration of the state's affairs.
We have too many laws; too much red
tape.
Wherever Sam Nichoison is known he
is spoken of as “The man who never
broke his word."

SOCIAL WORLD
At the Catholic parsonage, at 11
o’clock on Wednesday morning. Father
Callahan united in marriage James
Renell and Miss Fern Kreider.
The groom was supported during the
trying ceremony by his friend and fel
low employe of the A. B. S. Co., R. I.
Jones, and Mrs. Baum, wite of the en
sign at the U. S. Naval hospital, was
matron of honor. Only the immediate
relatives witnessed the ceremony and
immediately afterward the happy couple
left for Denver to spend the honey
moon.
The bride is the eldest daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. E. T. Kreider and has
spent most of her life in this city, at
tending the grades and high schools.
The groom is a trusted employe of the
A. B. S. Co. and a baseball pitcher of
some note thruout the valley. Upon
their return the newly-weds will go to
housekeeping in the Wilson resilience
on Swink avenue, where their many
friends will assemble to extend hearty
congratulations.

The opening musical event of the
season and one of especial interest be
cause of the popularity and musical
talent of Miss Marie Lacy, will be the
recital given in her honor at the Pres
byterian church on Friday evening.
Sept. 15, before her departure for a
season’s study in Chicago.
Miss Lacy has spent most of her life
in Rocky Ford, has always shown musi
cal ability and during her studies of the
past two years with Mrs. W. C. Steele
has advanced so rapidly that she is
urged by her teacher to continue her
studies umid the advantages of a large
musical center. To this end Miss Lacy
has taught quite a class of pupils here
and the proceeds of this concert will go
toward a study fund.
In her program Miss Lacy will be as
sisted by the Presbyterian choir, Mrs.
Brown and Miss Hunt, violinists, and
Mrs. Steele, accompanist.
Mrs. W. H. Pearce was the gracious
hostess of a delightfully planned thimble
party on Monday afternoon, compli
mentary to Miss McDaniels of Loving
ton, 111 , and Miss Ruth Davenport, of
Brooklyn, N. Y. An attractive and ap
petizing two-course luncheon was
served.

- LABOR DAY If
On one day of each year the nation turns aside from its regular vocations to
pay tribute to those who toil.
Labor means unselfish service. No one labors for himself alone. Entire com
munities share in the benefits accruing from the toil of the individual.
In these mountain states five thousand earnest, intelligent, loyal men and
women are daily laboring with mind and muscle, with heart and hand, to give
the public telephone service of the highest standard of excellence.
Whether digging in the earth, or climbing up among the wires; whether hunt
ing “trouble,” repairing the lines, working at the swtichboard, keeping ac
counts, or performing any of the multitudinous duties of the telephone busi
ness, all are imbued with the spirit of service which stimulates them to put
forth their best efforts in your behalf.
I Every day is a day of labor for those who serve the public; and LABOR DAY
is a fitting tribute to their worth.
