TWO
“Excellent Tonic”
MRS. S. A. WEIR,
827 W. 15th St., Pueblo, CoL
“Peruna Is an excellent tonlo for
the weakness that follows grip. If
everybody ccnM have a bottle or two
of Peruna after they have had (trip
they would get well a great cit*a.l
isooner than they usually do.
■'There la no belter medicine In
the world for col da and grip than
Peruna. One bottle did more to re
lieve me of a bad cold an® case of
grip than any remedlea that 1 have
ever taken."
Other things being equal, the
ready -to - taka medicine ia the
cheaper. On this phase of the sub
ject Mrs. Weir aaya:
“I am a widow with a very small
Income, and have to look to every
penny very closely. Under these
circumstances your medicine Is a
godsend to me. One bottle of Peruna
has accomplished for me more than
an expensive course of treatment of
any other sort. Of this I feel sure.
As a matter of economy every one
ought, to have a bottle of Peruna In
the house."

What Mr. M.C.B. Holley Doesn’t
Know About County Affairs
and County Finances
TO THE PUBLIC:
At the eleventh hour, and within a few hours of the opening of the
polls tomorrow for the county primary, it has been left for Mr. M. C.
H. Molley to attack my business record as a county commissioner, and
to virtually accuse me of falsifying In the statement that the county's
Indebtedness was decreased "about $45,000" in 1913.
Mr. Holly makes bold to say that the reduction was only $29,000 in
round figures, and that we received $43,194.57 from Increased taxes. So
that, according to Mr. Holley, Instead of being given any credit for any
reduction In the county's indebtedness, out of current revenues, we must
have used Some $14,000 of Hie current revenues for other purposes, over
and above what we had been using.
-I don’t know where Mr. M. C. B. Holley gut his figures, or who wrote
his card for him; but I got mine from Treasurer Clark,- and they don’t
need any explanation. That Is for men who are accustomed to dealing
with figures.
However, for Mr. M. C. n. Holley's benefit, If he really wants to
lenrri something about county affairs, I shall hire quote from the pre
sentments of the last grand Jury, as well ns from the county treasurer's
last report. Maybe these facts and figures will serve as a conclusive
unswer to his absurd contentions.
In order that the public may sec for Itsei; Just what Mr. M. C. B.
Holley knows about county matters, or even about plain business matters
in general, when he has the figures before hlm,l reproduce bis charges
and contentions herewith; because 1 want everyone to read them.
HERE'S WHAT MR. M. C. B. HOL
LEY SAYS ABOUT IT:
Mr. (3. H. Nixon has been appealing
to the voters of Richmond county dally
with large advertisements, asking their
support for County Commissioner on
the ground that h# had been able to
reduce the outstanding Indebtedness
of Richmond county by $45,000.00 In
the year 1913. In point of fact the
county’s lutstandlng indebtedness, as
shown by the county's records at its
court house, shows a decrease of $39,-
097.13.
HERE'B MR. M. C. B. HOLLEY’S
WAY OF FIGURING:
It will therefore be readily seen that
while the county’s Income for the year
1913 has been Increased to the extent
of $43,194.57 Its Indebtedness huH been
decreased by only $29,097.13, In face
of the fsrt Hint the expenditures for
Richmond County for the year 1913
amounted to $145,333.85, while those
for 1912 amounted to $147,700.43.
HERE’B WHAT MR. M. C. B. HOL
LEY THINKS HE KNOWS ABOUT
COUNTY AFFAIRS.
These records show that this de
creuso bus been brought about by an
Inrrcnso of eleven points upon the tax
ruto of Richmond County, which In
eh.“'W > / o . u * ht ln a avenue of
»3«.M5.01, I«d by the further Increase
of $8,569.58, brought about by the In
creased valuation of properly given In
for taxation.
HERE’S MR. M. C. B. HOLLEY'S
VERY PERTINENT QUESTION:
Is this a good business record? Can
Mr. Nixon consistently point with
prlilo to the way he has managed
Richmond County's finances?
. " f putting me in a hole, as Mr. M. C. B. Holley’s eleventh
hour card was Intended to do. I leave It to the public to say whether he
dorsnt show himself up as a man who has no understanding of county
'l"’ , f '" n wh ‘ n ,l "' foots and figures arc Inld before him hv both the
ounty treasurer and the grand Jury? Could he learn about these things
if the responsibility were put upon him? *
Respectfully,

ing indebtedness of the county on the
first of January, 1914, was estimated
to be in the neighborhood of SIOO,OOO.
and it will require from two to three
years of the greatest care and the

HERE’S WHAT THE GRAND JURY
KNOWB ABOUTCOUNTY AFFAIRS:
The law provides that when a float

within four years, or not less than 25
per cent a year. The March Grand
Jury of 1913 was asked to approve the
additional levy to provide the funds
to raiee $35,000, which represented
about one-quarter of the debt. It was
authorized, and an extra tax of one
and one-tenth mills, for that specific
purpose, was levied, and about $36,-

“The perfectly charming bracelet, which you and your colleagues in

generous sentiment that Inspired the beautiful gift gave me if possible
more pleasure than the gift itself.
"It will always remind me of the wonderful period through which we
are now passing and of my associations, indirectly with the great men in

first pledge the United States against
retaining Mexican territory, In order
to assure the world and the patriotic
elements of Mexico of our unselfish
purpose to promote civilization and
protect human life and happiness as
we did In Cuba. Patriotic Mexicans
honestly desiring peace and justice
mid the establishment of the bona
fide self-government of Mexico by
the people of Mexico should co-ope
rate with us.”
Fall, Rise, Plot.
Senator Owen told again the story
of the fall of Porflrio Diaz, the rise
of Madero, and tile plot of Huerta
mid Felix Diaz, Porfirio’s nephew,
which led to the overthrow and death
of Madero and put Huerta In the pres
ident’s chair. He recited the upris
ing of Carranza, on authority of the
legislature of the state of Coahulla,
and told how Senator Dominguez dar
ed denounce Huerta to the Mexican
senate, declaring that Huerta had pac
ified the country by extermination
end charging him with attempting to
keep his post by inciting a conflict
witii the United States.
The senator said that Rhortly af
terwards Dominguez disappeared and
was reported murdered. Then he
told of attempts to secure an investi
gation of his death by the Mexican
congress, and how Huerta put the
congress In jail.
By Decree.
"Whereupon,’’ he continued. "Huer
ta by decree, declared himself invest
ed, in flagrant violation of the con
stitution, with legislative and judic
ial power, in effect, military dictator
of Mexico. Moreover he declared the
constitutional guaranties of freedom
from arrest for members of congress
abrogated; and having thus vested
himself with the legislative and judic
ial power of Mexico, he charged al
most the entire Mexican congress
with sedition and treason.”
The “Election.’’
Senator Ower. dwelt at some length
on the "election” held for president
of Mexico on the 26th of October,
1913. Ho said that while Huerta had
announced he would not be a candi
date, ho had enlarged the powers of
his military state governors, to cover
the election machinery. Four days
before the election, the senator said,
despite formal assurances to the di
plomats In Mexico City that he was
not a candidate, election posters were
sent broadcast urging the people to
vote for Huerta. Huerta sent instruc
tions to his governors, said the sen
ator, to return the votes favorable to
him and not to return more than a
certain part of the precincts, thus
insuring a void election This pro
gram. he said, was carried out In
every detail, and the Mexican con
gress, discovering that less than half
the voting precincts had sent In re
turns. declared the election void and
expressed a desire that Huerta con
tinue ns provisional president until
some future time which might be flx
od by congress.
Still is ( Dictator.
"Huerta." he ‘added dramatically,
"still is dictator.”
"Of the 28 elected governors of
Mexico at the time Huerta seized the
governing igjwens," the senator said,
"only two at the end of the year re
mained at home attending to their du
ties. Ten of them had Joined the rev.
olutlon. a number had fled the coun
try, and one had been murdered tv
a major general of Huerta, who tied
the governor of Chihuahua on the
railroad track and backed a yard en
gine over him to teach hint better man
ners than to oppose Huerta. All va
| cancles were filled by military gov
ernors appointed by Huerta.
Take No Prisoners.
"Huerta's federsl officers of the
army appear to have been Instructed
to lake no prisoner* Evory captur
ed officer, high or low, was put be
j fore a wall and shot, most of the
j common soldiers taken prisoners

of the cabinet named for Huerta was
removed. Some oT them fled the
I country, one of them was killed, but
j not one was left In the cabinet"
“During the fall of 1913 numerous
] evidences appeared of Huerta trying
, to Involve the United States In eome
set of agggression or Invasion. His
purpose in doing this was to stir the
patriotism of the Mexican people,
make them forget his crimes, and In
duce them to get behind him as a de
fender of Mexico against an Invading
foe. Finally, April 9th. he had the Im
pudence to arrest sailors In our unt

To Provoke It.
"Huerta desired to provoke some
action that would unit# behind him
the revolutionary leaders in Mexico,
after which he might obtain his
peace, relying upon the benevolence,
the dignity, and the patience of the
government of the United States. He
has failed. The United States should
not now, under any circumstances, be
content with anything less than the
most complete and absolute restora
tion of constitutional self-government
In Mexico. Hundreds of our citizens
have been killed In Mexico, thous
ands of them have been robbed, mil
lions of their property stolen, and all
driven by violence from Mexico.
Huerta has sought to Involve us In
complications with Japan, which
might easily involve our nation In one
of the bloodiest wars in history, ir
permitted to be worked out.
“The president was not only justi

as president of Mexico and in seizing
Vera Cruz to stop the landing of a
shipload of machine guns and 2,000,-

been fully justified in deposing Huer
