Quotation. from tho News.

Our populist friends never seem TO
tire OF quoting from the columns OF the
.ye,es, the most of their space from week
to week being occupied with extracts
from that paper, showing why Weaver is
a better friend OF silver and the state,
than either Wolcott or Teller. This GER
tainly indicates that they have great
coafiience in itsludgment OF the politi-
cad measures and men OF the state. And
yet,strange as it may seem. the opinion OF
TINT paper upon some things very near
TO their hearts, is never given to their
readers. For example, its opinion OF
their state ticket and especially their
candidate for governor is never quoted.
We are sure there are some OF the faith
full, those who do not have access to the
paper direct, who would like To know
what the great editor is doing for their
owned by Hunter 4 Tuttle, Myers and
s.ate ticket For their benefit we quote:
The nominee OF the peoples party for
governor should not be elected TO the
Office. He is untitled by nature, age and
requirements to fill il TO the satisfaction
OF the people. The Neirs makes no
charge against hif integrity. He is sim
p,y one OF those men who are conceited,
seif-opinionated, weak where he should
bs st -ong, and stubb Irn when concilia-
tion guided by wisdom should prevail
And again:
1.-The populist convention, however, did
not show good judgment in the selection
OF it's state ticket A number of the nom
inees are good men and will make splen-
did candidates, and il elected will fill the
offices as acceptable to the people as
have any of the Incumbents since Colo
RADIO became state. The unfortunate
nominee is the candidate for governor.
He does not possess the calibre and
judgment necessary for 80 important n
position. His extreme views on many
subjects render him an exceedingly weak
candidate, and he has while protesting
devotion to labor) antagonized labor in
its organized form through the employ
ment OF printers upon his paper from out
side the typographical union. His pa
per, the Union Erd,-it is charged by
Aspen delegates- indulged in bitter
assaults upon the members Of a certain
religious denomination. These things
are pnraded against Mr.. Waite by his
own eighbors-deleRates from Pitkin
county to the silver convention-whoa are
earnest for the success OF the cause, yet
who cannot support him because OF these
and other weaknesses which injure him
as candidate and would disqualify him
TO administer wisely and safely the Office
Of governor. The candidate for governor
must, from the nature Of the situation,
give east to the rest Of the state ticket.
He will either buoy it up or bear it down.
The office is one that requires dignity,
self restraint, wisdom, business tact and
force Of character in the occupant. Mr.
Waite does not possess these qualities in
such Combination as to make him a safe
governor Of the'state should he be elected.
For these reasons the Netcs cannot sup
port him, and it says SO and pointedly at
the outset, that no man may rest in doubt
Is to its opiniona"

-Four Yenra Ago.
New YoRK, May 26.-The Hrda's
Washington correspondent telegraphs
his paper as follows:
~ don't think Mr.. Blaine would nc.
cept the nomination Il it were rendered
to him. He told me two months ago
he did not want It. He felt that If elect
ed hs would not have the strength
properly toAischarge the duties Of the
spresidency ~.
This statement was made to me this
afternoon by. Senator Stanford, OF Calf
'fornia. II wRs made without reserve,
and, with full understanding that it
might be sent to tho Herald.
1t has been said that when California.
ia' reached in the call Of states, tho
chairman Of the delegation will rise,
and in stentorian terms announce that
California casts her eighteen votes for
James G. Blaine"
This is what the delegation did four
years ago at Chicago, even after Blaine's
cable dispatch was received declaring
that ne would not accept, and it has
been thought that the programme will
be repeated at Minneapolis, witha view
to stampeding the convention for
Blaine ss45
