call of the Governor of Colorado for

iects and establishing its basis of rep
sentation. This "call' has already
appeared in the columns of the LIGHT
and many columns of it's space have
been devoted to the work for which
this convention is convoked. That
great interest is taken in the conven-
ton throughout the northwest is evil
denced by the fact that the Governors
of the following states and territories

convent ton, viz: Arkansas, Missouri,
Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska, Kansas,
California, Texas, Oregon, Nevada,
Colorado, Dakota, New Mexico, Wyo-
ming, Montana, Washington, Idaho,
Utah, Indian Territory and Arizona.
The LIGHT takes great pleasure in
assuring the good people of Denver
and all the northwest. that Texas is
alive to, the call for that deep water
convention. That the people of this
section will be well represented there
and that the citizens of this great
state will join hands heartily with
those of her neighbors in higher lati-
tudes to secure what is so Imperative
ly required, deep water harbors on
the coast of Texas.

CLEVELAND LOSING GROUND.

To those who are so everlastingly
sure that Cleveland can carry New
York, this year, the following extracts
from the Albany Times, one of the
leading democratic journals in the
Empire state, are commended. The
Albany Times says:
"Would the surrender of democratic
supremacy in the nation, represented
as it now is, be any worse than the
Endorsement at the polls of great
free trade scheme of which the end
cannot be seen? The democratic ad-
ministration of three years and a half,
by an executive who was chosen
somewhat because of his voluntary
remuneration of continuance in
power through second term, has not
strengthened the party SO much as
even the tendency of scheme to les
sen protection has weakened it. There
is little hope that the democrats
would increase their strength as a
party four years hence by their sue
cess now in re-electing Mr.. Cleveland.
AS his administration would be mere
ly four years continuance of the
weakening process.
There is no doubt in any sane mans
mind that the election of Mr.. Cleve-
land in the coming fall would be an
intimatiOn and on the surface lOg1-
cal evidence that the democratic party
is opposed to the principle of protec-
ton, and with that stigma and bur-
den upon it, it would not be able again
to elect another president. The ques-
ton in myriads of democratic minds
is one of this very heroic character:
Would it not be better for the party,
in all future time, that it should by
its votes this fall pronounce in the
most decided terms against the ruin
Gus policy of the president, and vindi-
cate its principles as a party OF pro-
lection to labor and home industries"
Let the average, nOn-partisan, level
headed man read this extract; let him
allow the full force of its meaning to
creep powerfully through his hair
and he will see that it is question,
on the part of strong democratic
journal in the state capital of Clev e.
lands own state, whether or not the
democratic party would not be
stronger four years hence by Cleve-
lands defeat than by his election.
When it comes to such question
from such a source it reveals a condi-
ton of affairs that must strike the or
binary mind as most unpromising for
Cleveland's success. His worst pOliti-
cal enemies never said so discourag-
ing thing as this stalwart democratic
sheet, published in the capital of the
state whose electoral vote Cleveland
must secure or suffer defeat. The
signs of the situation are big with
promise that the Cleveland free trade
idea will not be endorsed by eastern
democrats at the polls.

"The fraternal greeting, the

spectacle full Of teaching to those who
now endeavor to tear open the wounds
that time has so far healed. When
men who drew blood on each other
can meet together and join hands in
reunion.
Certainly those who stayed at home
and took no part in the conflict only
TO speculate off the misfortunes Of the
country should not complain and
last of all should not use their time
and talents embitter sections. Peace
once declared should be final and so
it will be, no matter how much dem
