Correspondence of,hc Gazette
COLORADO, June 1.-THE nomins-
ton OF Blaine aud Logan at Chicago
was well received by the Republicans
here. In fact, I anu informed they
propose to enthuse to the extent Of
holding ratification meeting within
the next four days. 1, for one, will be
glad to attend II. We Will then know
who belongs to that party, which at
present we do not, as only three
members constitute their so-cslled
county convention. II will
take more than that number
to get up much jolliiicatiou.
Possibly the magnetic name OF Blaine
can draw them out. This correspond

place Of such meeting. rather think

dampen the ardor of our Republican
friends just on the eve Of their public
rejoicing.
In all probability the convention
which meets at Fort Worth to-day will
do this for me. Ii SO, will repeat IL
in whisper. The mere allusion to
the fraud of 1876 makes them turn
pale, even after the lapse of eight
years. They dread to face the man
from whom their great steal was made.
Never mind; the day OF retribution is
at hand. They know this fact to be
true, consequently quake with mortal
dread when they zee the avenger I'm
