The Republican, TRIUMPH.

Chairman Quay of the Republican ma
tional committee says that Harrison has
won the New York Times gives it up un-
qualifiedly, and so do all the leading pa
pers on the Democratic side, and there is
no room for reasonable doubt but that
such is the fact. In Congress there is
likely to be good working majority of
Republicans in the House and the Senate
will remain Republican. SIN fact" to
quote Judge Thurman, it looks as if the
people of the United States have decided
that the tariff is not tax" The revolu-
tion is thorough.
When it is considered that the Demo-
Gratis had pretty much all the offices and
worked them for all they were worth I;
that the Republicans were the "outs ="
and therefore fought at disadvantage,
while they had not fully recovered from
the Blaine business of four years ago,
and that the main issue of the campaign,
was rather abstruse question of econ
omics, the victory of the Republicans
was little less than wonderful. 1t was
due in a measure to the earnest and united
support given Mr. Harrison. AS a man
and as candidate he was entitled to con-
fidence. He made no silly speeches, but,
when he spoke, spoke to purpose. On
the other hand, the Democratic newspa-
pers were not especially anxious about
Mr.. Cleveland's retention. The New
York Sun has always regarded him as a
cheap man and has guyed him unmerciful-
ly throughout the campaign, furnishing
the best of material to the enemy; while
the Herald, which wants to be on the win
ming side always, practically gave the
Empire State to Harrison two weeks ago.
But it was chiefly the tariff issue that won
the day. The plain people Of the North
have, as rule, come to think that pro-
tectiye policy is the true policy; and all

The report of the democratic state
convention at Denver this week re-
yeals 10 the public that the drmo-
Gratis of the state are crowded BY
their private business. 1t was found
that nearly every man named for
position had SO much private busi-
ness that he could not possibly accept
the nomination, and the nominations
made were unanimous. Mr., Patter-
son was the only one who accepted
a nomination stating he offered him
self sacrifice for the good of the
party, they all probably felt that way
but did not say so.

There are many strange aud vexing
things IN connection with politics,
and especially is this so when in fair
ness and right location Is entitled
to representation and then fail to
get it, We were strongly reminded
of this at the third judicial conven-
non at Pueblo last Monday, some
months ago Pueblo SAID they wanted
the judge, and their choice was J. c.
Elwell of that city who is the pres
ent district attorney, number of
gentlemen of that city expressed a
willingness to aid Bent county man
for district attorney. Mr.. Elwell
himself was as we had reason TO be-
lieye friend to any man Bent coun-
ty might put forward and would do
everything he could for him. Mr..
A. VI. Nicholas of this city consented
to become candidate for district
attorney on the statements of Pueblo
gentlemen that he would have n part
if not the whole delegation of that
county, what was the result, Mr..
Nicholas went to the convention en-
dorsed by Il resolution passed by the
republican county convention a few
weeks ago, making his nomination
a request from Bent county as a rep
resentatiye of the Arkansas Valley.
the only one thing the valley has
ever asked for, the morning of the
convention the Pueblo delegation
stated that Mr.. Nicholas would get a
part of their delegation and Mr..
Elwell thought the number would be
from seven to ten, this was the un-
derstanding up to the time the con-
vention was called to order, there
we're three candidates for judge, Mr..
Elwell received the nomination. the
names of Mr.. Nicholas and w. w.
Dunbar were placed before the CON
vention tor district attorney, Bent
county east seven votes, Custer eley-
en- and Fremont fifteen for Mr.. Mich
olas, and one for Mr.. Dunbar, this
was something Pueblo county or Mr..
Elwe!l WAS not looking for and they
saw Dir. Nicholas would be nomina-
ted on the first ballot if they gave
him more than one vote, so after Las
Anlmas county gave Mr.. Dunbar
fourteen votes they gave him nine.
teen and one for Nicholas, the vote
stood the same for FIVE ballots, when
Pueblo county went back on all
promises and gave the one vote nee
essary to Mr.. Dunbar to nominate
him. We have no fault to find with
Mr.. Dunbar his course and canvass
as far as We know was honorable and
legitimate, but we are satisfied nov
that Pueblo county never intended
to any more thar give our candidate
a complimentary vote and then on
the pretence he could not get the
nomination leave him, but the
strength he showed on the first bal.
lot, forced them to show their hand,
and of course he was defeated and
the Arkansas Valley virtually told
that they was not located in the right
part of Colorado to receive ANYTHING
more than complimentary vote, and
not that If it was dangerous.
To Custer and Fremont counties
we want to say the gallant manner
in which you stood by the Arkansas
Valley will not be forgotten and
when an opportunity presents itself
as it surely will, We will show our
appreciation.

How TO Test Silk.

Boston Journal of Commerce: How
to determine the actual quality of silk,
says all exchange, is q question that
often puzzles the mind. A sure plan is
to take ten fbers of the filling of any
silk, and if, on breaking, they show q
feathery, dry and lack-luster condition,
discoloring the fingers in handling, you
may at once be sure of the presence of
dye and artificial weighting; or take u
portion of the iibers between the thumb
and forefnger, and very gently roll
them over and over, and you will soon
detect the gum, mineral, soap and other
ingredients in the one and the absence
in the other. A simple but effective
test of purity is to burn a small quantity
of the fber': pure silk will instantly
crisp, leaving only n pure charcoal;
heavily dyed silk will shoulder, leaving
yellow, greasy ash. If, on the con-
trary, you cannot break the ten strands,
and they are of natural luster and
brilliancy, and fail to discolor the fin
gers at the point Of contact, you may
well be assured that you have n pure
silk that is honest in its make and
durable in its wear.

Indians rs .JOCkeYa.

Sportsman: Piute Indian Jockeys who
created such sensation at Stockton,
Cal, last fall will have to look to their
laurels, as some British Columbia In
dians are after the position of premier
riders among the aborigines. On this
point Victorian (B. C.) adviccs say that,
rs jockey riders the Flathead Indians
and their relations have, perhaps no
equals on earth. Raised as they are
from childhood almost on a pony's back,
so to speak, it is no wonder they become
superior equestrians. Whom preparing
for race the young bucks skin them
selves of their clothing SO as to
present as little resistance to tho
air as possible. A Flathcad Jockey
mounted for business il dressed in moth
ing more than breech clout, and, per-
haps, a thin cotton shirt, which floats i'm
the breeze, but offers impediment to the
rider or horse. Leaning forward on
their hardy little cayuses, they dash
down the race course like the wind,
jumping bitches and lodging trees with
precision and skill truly marvellous.
The white mans race cOuse is a fiat,
level stretch OF ground, rolled smooth,
over which the animal simply runs,
while the rider has nothing much to do
except to hold to his seat. On the other
hand, an Indian will race over any kind
OF ground, among timber or swimming
streams, combining with the simple
speed of his animal individual skill and
judgment in surmounting score of OBJ
saacles, and always coming under the
wire ahead. A white man seldom wins
a race from an Indian, and there is no
wonder.

The city council of Cheyenne has de-

when tho obstruction was met. Fortu-
nately the engine threw it off the track.

Carl isle Will Keep His Seat.

The committee on elections of the
house of representatives. will to-day re-
port that Mr.. Carlisle is entitled to his
seat. In this three republican members
of the committee will unite with the
democrats. The other three republic
can members, while not convinced that
Mr.. Carlisle is not entitled to his seat,
are OF the opinion that the request of
Th"ebe for reopening of the case, in
order that he might be given an oppor-
tunity to introduce new evidence,
should have been granted. The result,
however, was foregone conclusion.
Only the most overwh Ginning evidence
could have induced the demo-
cratic majority of the committee
to report unfavorably to Mr.. Car
Isle, and such evidence was not pre-
sented. What was shown, however, was
far more formidable than Mr.. Carlisle
had anticipated, and forced him to an
elaborate defense which he had not in
tended to make. AS to the new evil
dence which it was said the contestant
had secured, it might have materially
strengthened his case, but it is not at all
probable that it would have resulted in
different judgment. However desira-
BILE release from public life would be to
Mr.. Carlisle, and he seems not averse to
laying down the burdens and cares of a
public career, his party does not feel
disposed to spare him at present.
1t may not have any larger
honor for him than he now en-
joys, and it may not as a whole be quite
satisfied with everything he has done,
but it has no other man who ut this
time could quite fill his place among its
leaders. If there had ever been ques.
tion regarding the success of Mr.. Car
Isle in the contest for his seat the entire
democratic party would have demanded
of its representatives in congress IL
judgment in his favor.
