The Frontier Lader of November IL
probably the last issue before its de
struction. gives Wells, Fargo x Co. the
reputation of being mail robbers in a
fierce article. Iu the same column ap-
pears ar editorial from which we make
the following extracts:
Grant, the whisky -bloated, squaw-ravishing
adulterer, monkey-ridden, niger orshippIng
Mogul Is rejoicing over his election 10 the
Presidency. Un the 4th of March next, the
hell-born satrap will, If he be alive, assume
the honors % and robe of a Dictator.
The tan-baTk, sinking aristocrat and
double-dealing hypocrite will give them all
the blood and taxation they want. His sup
porters will see the day. when they will howl
tor peace, and hide their heads for very shame.
Their honor and memory of the noble dead
have left their hearts forever.
Thank God, we are In region where the
presence of such cess-pOol OF roStenness
and corruption is not constantly under our
nostrils, where the filthy fumes are not con-
tinually rising to poison the mind.
Eastern mothers must tremble for the safety
of their daughters virtue, knowing that the
gaudy milltiry uniform of their President
and ruler covers the filthy, lecherOus caTcase
of a libertine, seducer, polygamIc squaw-
keeper. Fathers must be proud to know that
the leather-headed, brawling debauchee, aud
California bar-room hummer, is their leader
and an example for their sons.
Time only will tell how this " elevation Ci
one of the mob will end, and in the mean
time we advise bur friends To prepare for the

THE State question is to be brought
to focus in Colorado A call for a Ter
ritorial Republican Convention is pub
lished in the Netcs, OF Nov II, signed
by Daniel Whittier, Chairman of the
Republican Central Committee. The
Convention is TO meet in Denver to-day,
Nov 30. and an understanding exists
that the Democratic party will hole a
like Convention at the same time. Sixty
two delegates are ordered To- represent
the Republican party. The Chairman
offers the following explanation of the
movement
"The object of said Convention will
be TO consider the question of our adj
mission as a State. and to take such &C
tion in references to il as shall be deemed
expedient and proper, and 10 consider
such other matters of general interest
to the party as may be brought before
the Convention.
The object of calling Territorial Con-
ventions OF the two parties at the same
time and place is, in case they should
both decide in favor of a State govern
ment, TO make mutual arrangements tOI
securing the favorable action OF Con
gress and the President thereon, and to
agree upon such arrangement for secur
ing fairness in future elections as may
be deemed expedient and proper.
Colorado has made as much fuss over
this State business as a girl does about
getting married the first time. Proba'
