Cleveland and Third Party.
Mr.. EDlToR: | have recently
heard a great deal said in ze-
GARD to politics in which Cleve-

will vote with them to promote
the farmers interest. \ large
majority o. the farmers are
also Democrats. But they will
not vote for a man like Cleve-
land whose political life has
has been devoted TO tho interest
Of monopolists and millionaires
Now some newspapers and d
few other persons contend that
if Cleveland is not nominated
by the farmers it Will cause the
formation of a Third Party.
That is a great mistake.

their delegates to go for no

nual rainfall with relation to the popula-

Der of its inhabitants, was, in 1870, z2.5'
inches; in 1880, AZ inches, and in 1880,

it is supposed, by the settlement Of the
great plains and the arid regions Of the
West. The relation of temperature to
rainfall is, of course understood. In the

as the recent death in ST. Louis OF Hon.
G. NJ. Chilcott. He had been one of the
most prominent and substantial citizens
OF Colorado for over thirty years, and
had been honored by the people with
numerous positions of trust, all of which
he filed with credit to himself and salts
faction to his constituents. He served
the State as Delegate to Congress and
United States Senator. He was a resi-
dent of Pueblo but interested in several
other portion of the State. among others
this county, where his son Scott resides.
His integrity and kindliuess won him the

and all mourn his loss. Both Houses of

row and adjourned out of respect to his

Tho silver Problem.

Our politicians are making monstrous
mess OF tho silver question by persisting
in treating it as political issue The
real question is not what silver is going
to do with us, but what are we going to
do with silver. This particular metal is
the small change Of the world. It buys
meat aud bread and fruit, gowns and
treasures and notions from China to
Peru; and the one, great, ,all-overshadow-
ing problem for the mass of mankind is
how to save something from the exterior
and interior departments for a rainy day
Two nations have solved this problem to
erfection-Germany and France. Men
starve in China, in Hindostan, in Ireland,
on our Indian reservations and wild
western wastes, but did anybody ever
contribute to famine fund for the Teu-
ton or the Gaul? Not long ago the
French Republic wanted few hundred
millions, and on the day set for the sub
scription thirty times the sum required
was offered, and largely offered by the
workman in his blouse, the plowboy in
his wooden shoes, the nursmaid in natty
apron and cap, from their savings of sill
yer. That wise and just government,
that true republic which looks upon its
people as growing plants to be fostered
and not matured grain to be ground into
powder in the government mill, ordered
the great bankers to stand back until the

none live better, all in all, than the Ger

Rainfall, and Population.

Few people, probably, have given much
attention to the relation between rainfall
temperature and the population of the
country. Possibly few are interested in
knowing what control OF volition nature
exercises, or care to believe that man is
not as Independent as he assumes to be
in the selection of his habitat. The Cen
sus Commissioner is an exception to this
rule of human Indifference as to the
causes of settlement here and the ab-
sencs of settlement there, and points out
how obedient to the gentle sway of the
elements is tho race of men supposed to
be self-assertive and superior to circum-
stances. He informs us that the great
proportion of population in certain di-
visions of the country is not the result OF
Topographic charm or commercial con-
venieuce so much as the effect of IL Q
mean OF tho rainfall and tempers ture
throughout the year. His tables prove
that the main body Of population inhab-
its the region in which the annual rain
fall is between 80 and so inches, quite
three-fourths of the population being
found in that range. On either side as
rainfall increases or diminishes popula-
tion decreases with corresponding rapid
ity, so that where rainfall is less than 20
inches, and two -tifths of the entire area
OF the country is thus unfortunate, there
is less than 8 per cent. Of population.
The most favored region is that in which
the rainfall is between 40 and so inches.
The density of population in that area is
an average of 50 inhabitants to the
square mile. AS the rainfall increases
above 80 inches there is steady dimi-
mutton of population until at 70 there is
a percentage of only 1.3, The most rapid
proportional increase in the past twen-
ty years has been in the area where the
mean rainfall is 20 to 30 inches, compris-
ing the eastern portion OF the great
plains ranging from Texas to Dakota

AconstItutIon.I Convention.

Senator Steck has introduced in tho
Legislature a concurrent resolution
which provides for submitting to tho
people the question Of calling constitu-
tional convention.
Heretofore it has been the rule of the
Legislature to introduce bill to accom-
plish this purpose, but Senator Steck
thinks that under section one, article
nineteen of the constitution a resolution
is as effective as bill.
Senator Steck's resolution came up
yesterday in committee Of the whole, and
was ably supported. 1t will probably
come up for action in the Senate to-day.
The resolution should receive the nec-
essary two-thirds votes In both houses.
The revision of the Constitution OF
Colorado is no longer merely advisable;
it is necessary to the progress and pros
perity of the State, and to the proper ad-
ministration OF State affairs.
When the constitution was framed
Colorado was sparsely settled Terri
tory. Most of its resources were un-
known, and those that were known were
undeveloped. The possibilities of the
State were not realized by the makers OF
the constitution and no provisions were
made to meet the requirements Of
great commonwealth, such as Colorado
is to-day.
We have long since outgrown the re-
strictions and narroy limitations of the
constitution. In every department Of
the State government there is daily evi-
dence OF this fact, and this cCnditicn Of
affairs should be remedied without fur
ther delay.
The constitution OF Colorado beaEe the
same relation to the State that the city
charter does to the city of Denver. As
the city has grown the charter has been
amended to meet the increased munici-
pal requirements, but nothing has been
done to amend the constitution to meet
the increasing demands of this growing
State.
1t is time that the intelligence of this
State was assembled to frame q broad
and liberal constitution, under which
the progress of the State and the proper
management Of its affairs would be no
longer impeded as it has been by petty
restrictions.
The only possible objection that could
be raised against holding q constitution
al convention would be question of ex-
pense, but the State will lose more by
the delay than it will cost to hold this
convention. In the end the financial
gain to the State will be large.
No question of false economy should
be allowed to stand in the way of the
passage Of this resolution. A revision of
the constitution is badly needed. The
people understand the situation, and we
believe are strongly in favor of the hold
ing of constitutional convention as
early as posaible.-Colorqdo Sun.
