Colorado Politics.
The principal mission to the East of
MI Underwood, of Colorado, has been
to confer with eXPresident Cleveland,
MI Stevenson, W. G. Whitney. Chair
man Harrity and other prominent Dem
ocratso on the ACCESSIBILITY of the Demo-
Gratis of Colorado endorsing the Peoples
party candidate for presidential cleo
tors in the state OF Colorado.
Mr.. Underwood said: The advisa-
bliity of fusion with the Peoples party
OF Colorado to the extent of indorsing
their electors has been a very delicate
question in our state, and Oh which
e1any Democrats differ. As is we'll
known, the failure of the Republican
national convention at Minneapolis to
give the Colorado Republicans any sat
fssactory plank Oh the financial ques-
ton has created Il general revolt among
the Republicans of the silver state
The Peoples party has consequently
received an impetus which places it in
position to control the balance of
power, if not indeed TO sweep the STATE
1t is conceded by us that alone We have
no reason TO expect to carry the hither-
10 strong Republican state of Colorado;
and if we conclude not to nominate a
ticket of our own, but to indorse the
candidates of the PEOPLES party. the
defeat of the Republicans in Colorado
is certainly assured.
Leaders Favor Fusion.
have conferred fully with ey-Presi-
dent Cleveland. Gen. Stevenson, Hon.
w. c. Whitney, Chairman Harrity. of
the national committee. and Don Dick
insOn, and find them all in favor of i'll
dorslng the Peoples party electors in
Colorado. We hope. however.
to impose upon the Peoples
party leaders one condition
that if we indorSc their electors it.
shall be with the understanding that if
thrown into the house of representatives
the Colorado electors shall in the cleo
toral college cast their vice presidential
vote for Gen. Stevenson.
1t does not follow that the election of
the president being thrown into the
house of representatives election of the
vice-president is necessarily thrown in
to the senate. The senate does not re-
ceive jurisdiction over the selec-
ton of the vice-president un-
til after the electoral college has
also blaloted on the vice-presi-
dent and failed to elect. So it is quitel
possible for the electoral college to fait
to eject president. yet be able to cleo
the vice president. | think with tn
proposed plan approved by the two ma
tional candidates there will be no doubt
of the Colorado Democl attic convention
ENDORSING the Peoples party electoral
candidates.
