Colonel Bdtler of tho Arapahoe
Pioneer is simply determined to be dis
pleased and dissatisfied with our follow-
citizen and congressman G W Norris
who may jugt as well make up his mind
first as last to wiggle along without the
colonels support or commondation
Arapahoe has wisely and properly
decided to not obscure the local situation
there at the coming spring election
They will vote on the dry or wet
question and the candidates on both
city tickets have decided to abide by
the decision of the people on that ab
sorbing question

day wherein a new bank is not organiz
