Take the Best Paper.

The best way to keep thoroughly
posted on all matters of human inter-
est is to take first-class daily paper,
which is honest and just in its opin-
ion, truthful and thorough In its pre-
sentation of news, and faithfully de-
voted to the best interests of the Sec
ton in which it is published.
Such paper is THE DENVER Re-
PUBLICAN. In everything that goes
to make daily journal of the high
est class, it stands supreme among
the newspapers of the west, and
everything that the application of
brains and money can do to make
each Issue better than the last will
be done in the future as in the past.
With the best platform eyer pre-
sented to the American people by
any political party, and ticket that
must command the respect and o8h-
fidence of all fairmlnded citizens, it
will be our pleasant duty during the
campaign to carry the gospel of Re-
publicanism to every home in which
the progress and prosperity of this
country is desired In the protection
of American industries and the per-
petuation of Republican institutions
to aid US in this great and good
work.
1t is of vital importance to the west
that the policy of encouragement to
labor and capital, which has been
,he ruling spirit of Republican rule.
and the main cause of the Nations
growth in moral and material great
ness during the last quarter of CEN
tury, s1ould be continued for an in
definite period to come, and that re-
suit can be most successfully achiev-
ed through the agency of a patriotic
press.
THE DENVER REPUBLICAN, has,
and will have, nothing to do with
factionai or personal differences of
opinion within the Republican party.
1t has no spites to crafty and no old
scores to settle. 1t will strenuously
endeavor at all times to promote the
spirit of harmony and to improve
the chances of party victory. 1t will
stand up for the rights of the people
against the aggressions of corpora
tons and classes, and 1t will at all
times be prepared to express Its hon
es,opinions in fair and unmistakable
language on all questions affecting
the public welfare. Address

A. Stearns, in Puck.

A Republican reporter last even.
ing met Mr.. Joseph II. Murray of
Brooklyn, well known in politics in
that city. In speaking of the chances
of the republican ticket in the state
of New York, Mr.. Murray said:
81 cannot very well see how the
republicans can help winning the
state this year. Those who have
watched the political contest in New
York at all will readily see upon
what grounds l have my theory.
Harrison and Morton have become
very popular Another thing which
leads me to think that we will carry
the state Is the fact that Cleveland
and Hill are not good friends by any
means, and although the machine
democrats say that there are no dis.
sensions, l want to tell you that it
would not cause Mr.. Hill any uneasi-
ness if Mr.. Cleveland were not elect
ed. Neither would it trouble Mr..
Cleveland's mind to any extent if his
former Lieutenant Governor were
defeated. Hill is without the least
shadow of doubt the better politi-
clan and the more popular of the
two in our great pivotal state, and
his friends, when they see that the
Cleveland forces, are putting the
knife to their favorite, will just turn
around and make that same knife
boomerang, and Mr.. Cleveland will
get the worst of it. Another thing,
ex-United States Senator Warner
Miller and Colonel Crouger are both
well-known and decidedly popular
men, who will surely poll the full
vote of the republican party. Then,
again, we do not hear so much about
the Mugwumps as we did four years
ago. / was one of the men who four
years ago Joined ex-Mayor Seth Low,
Lawyer Horace E. Deming and the
late Rey. Henry Ward Beecher In the
crusade against Blaine, but 1 would
not repeat 1t. Cleveland was elected
by little over LOO votes, and fully
that many democrats have left their
party and came to our side since the
campaign started. We have nothing
whatever to fear. The state will go
republican. 1t is, to my mind, only
a question of majority, and l would
not be very greatly surprised if re-
publican Mayor were elected in New
York Clty.-Denver Republican.

1t being notorlously the practice
with democratic administrations to
hire great squad of men at all the
navy yards just before an election to
use as heelers at the polls, says the
Lincoln Journal, congress passed an
act in 1876 prohibiting an increase
of the force at any navy yard within
sixty days of an election unless the
secretary of the navy issued cirtifi
cate to the effect that the needs of
the service required an extra lot of
men. Secretary Whitney has conse-
quently just issued a Certificate for
the increase of the force immediately
at the Brooklyn navy yard. They
want voters badly in New York and
the navy has got to hump itself right
away. The secretary says that the
emergency Is the necessity of hurry
ing up the completion of the work
on a number of old vessels. These
vessels, by the way, have been at the
yards ever since the administration
came into power and will probably
be there long after it goes out.

me Country Boy som Heae.

There comes a time when tho county
lad grows weary of the prosaic surround
ings of his life. The old homestead looks
small and cramped up. He longs for the
freedom of the world. He takes his fatt.
er's hand in goodbye" kisses the trem.
ulous lips OF his mother, strolls down by
the neighbOring farm house and takes an
awkward but loving farewell of his sweet
heart, and takes the first accommodation
train for the city.
Here he will learn the secrets of busi-
ness life crown his labors with fortune
in about year and q half, and retiring to
the haunts of his youth, bring forth the
hand-maiden of his heart to surroundings
fitted for her wonderful goodness and
sweetness. So he thinks.
Arriving at the goal of his ambition he
is charmed and delighted; blocks ON blocks
of fine houses, the hurley-burley of tho
enormous traffic of the streets, the brilliant
show windows, all tend to fill his eyes with
wonder and his heart with enthusiasm.
He enjoys himself hugely. Night comes,
and after brief view of the brilliancy Of
the streets by gaslight, he leisurely finds
his way to his boarding house. He half
way remembers that he has forgotten some
thing, that the cows are not milked, OF
wood for the kitchen fire brought in, but
the confusion of sights he has seen has
tired out his receptive brain, and he weari-
ly tumbles into bed. The moment his
body touches the easily-yielding spring
mattress he is wide awake; the strange
ness of his surroundings and tho slowly
dawniDg truth that he is among strangcrE
seems to pry open his eyelids and keep
them open. He grows more wakeful, the
curious sounds that he hears put him on
the alert lest some foul deed Of violence ia
being committed in the next room, and he
starts up in a cold sweat dozen times to
find everything all right.
He wonders if his father and mother are
talking of the temptations to which he is
exposed If Jennie is dreaming of him
with the last rosebud he gave her under
her pillow. He somehow begins to feel
that he is out of place, and If he could on
ly see the old black cat asleep at the foot
of the bed he would be treasured.
At the first gray streak of dawn he
arises, as has been his habit. Not soul
stirring, except now and then an early
milk-man, and he would give his old boots
if he were on q milking stool ut that min
ute. As he looks out of his window tho
sun rises plump out of the northwest and
looks upon him as coldly as if it really did
come from that corner. This is too much.
A solitary tear trembles on his eyelid, and
before he knows it he is hard at work at
crying match. He goes upon the street
again, and secs not face that he knows
He buys a second-class ticket for homo and
remains the joy and comfort Of the old
folks, and when they die takes Jennie and
both the farms, and never goes to the city
again except to sell garden-truck.

Grover Wasn't There.

They had a big reunion, Joe.
Twas but the other day,
From everywhere by thousands came
The boys who whipped the Gray.
The fife and drum made music on
The soft September air,
And sixty Thousand heroes marched,
And Grover wasn't there.
He sent a note. in which he said
He really could not come;
lie had to veto pension bills
That's why he stayed at home.
Ana In the camps upon the green,
Beneath the skies so fair.
The comrades did not wonder, Joe,
That Grover wasn't there.
The boys recounted all their fights.
And laughed DER times a2oHe,
And here and there you'd hear them drol
The name of Harrison.
/ know they love him, by the way
They praised him everywhere.
And all the vets seemed glad to know
That Grover wasn't there.
The great procession passed away
Without him in the ranks;
He would have marched If it had been
Just south of Dixies line.
The bows who made our speeches, Joe,
They didn't seem to care
A continental when they talked
That Grover wasn't there.
: But. Joe, to keep his record up,
And help himself, to boot
He thought to send us in his place,
The usual substitute,
For on the grand reviewing stand
With music on the mir,
The old bandanna waved aIOft,
But Grover wasn't there.
We didn't send him eur regrets,
He doesn't like us, Joe;
And 'twixt us and the President
No love is lost you know.
And when the votes are counted out,
And all is right and fair.
The soldier boys will shout to know
That Grover wasn't there.-(Ex.)

Col. Don Morrison, who has Just
died IN St. Louis, was cousin of ex-
Congressman William r. Morrison.
BY inheritance and by marriage he
came into possession of large estates,
which he employed to the gratifica-
tion of his convivial propensities. 1t
is said that on one occasion Morrison
brought stag party home with him
and insisted upon carouse IN the
drawing room. Several members of
the party suggested that as the hour
was late 1t would be wiser to dis
perse, and the group stood on the
front steps discussing the PROPOSE
ton.
"Likely as not" said one of the
party, "your wife wouldn't fancy this
intrusion at this hour of the night. -
"Gentlemen," said Morrison stern
ly, "I'd have you understand once
for all that in his house Col. J. L. d.
Morrison is Cesar"
But just that moment feminine
voice--cold and meanlngful-came
down from an upper window.
"Gentlemen," said this voice, ego
home to your wives; I'll take care of
Cesar."-Chicago News.

The democratic state platform,
ridded of useless verbiage, reads as
follows: 1--WE endorse ourselves, we
congratulate ourselves, we sympa-
thlze with ourselves, we accept our
selves, we denounce ourselves, we
deplore ourselves, we condemn our
selves, we favor ourselves, we de-
mand ourselves, we repudiate our
selves, we again denounce ourselves,
we reitterate." The only mistake in
this platform is that the yourselves
of the democrat is sometimes spelled

Quite laugh was raised over little In
cident which recently occurred in one OF
the clothing stores of this city, in which
the proprietor figured to such an extent as
to necessitate ''set up" all around.
A stranger entering the store walked up
to the proprietor and asked, "Have you
Sawyer woolens ?" Pardon the correc-
tion," said the proprietor, ''but don't you
mean have You seen your wOolens -"
Now the point that We ish to particu-
larly emphasize is simply this: that for
over twenty-five years this standard class
