DEMOCRATS TALK.
Ambassador BAY ard Thinks 1896 Will
BE All Right-Henry WattersOn
Gives His Opinion.

Baltimore, Nov. 8.-Ambassador Thos
F. Bayard, said to-day: 81 have had great
apprehensioDs as to the result OF
the elections for some time.
do not want to run afoul of the gentlemen
who were responsible for the delay in
passing the tariff bill, but patriots duty
is unmistakable. The necessity for pure
Democratic tariff Legislation was never SO
great as now. Bills for free raw materials
should be passed immediately and then
the country will be able to contempt
the Democratic idea of the tariff in full
working order for two years, before the
national election rolls around.
"This done l have little fear that the
verdict will be unsatisfactory in 1884"
The ambassador sails for England next
Saturday.
wATTERsON's VIEW.
Louisville Fy--In to-day's Courier
Journal, under the head "Have we Dem
ocratic party?" Mr.. Watterson says:
"Never did great party go to pieces
under such handicap as was carried by
the Democrats into the campaign Just
ended. The hard times we're bad enough,
but they might have been parried. Fac
tional fights among small claimants and
rival place hunters were bad enough, but
parties have met and overcome such OBJ
stacles before now. But with the record
of pertidy and dishonor, as Mr.. Cleveland
apty described it, to face and defend in
hand to hand fight with the united Re-
publicans, led by Harrison, Mckinley
and Reed, it was disheartening for the
Democrats; and they had to face, also,
the dull self-sufficiency and stolid indif-
ference of the administration, that made
no sign, uttered no word and, at least in
the state of New York, seemed to desire
the defeat of the regular Democratic
nominees.
"The battle for tariff reform will have
to go down foot and take a new start.
The battle over the money issue will soon
be upon us. We shall see whether there
is Democracy enough left of the true blue
stripe to max a great-coat good against
all weather, or whether we must still wear
coat of many colors, covering not
homogeneous party inspired with faith
and trust, but mere bundle of factions
thrown together by the upheaval of the
times"

The Best Line East.

Is unquestionably the Burlington route.
In point of equipment, time and service
1t is conceded to be superior to all other
lines.
The fast vestibuled /"hyer" leaving
Denver daily at p. m., reaches Chicago
at 500 4. N. and st. Louis at 1920 a. M,
the second morning, in ample time to
connect with all fast trains for the east
and south.
1t is also fact worth remembering
that the Burlington is the only line run
ming through trains over its own tracks
from Denver to Chicago and st. Louis
without change of any class of cars.

ticket agents, OF address G. W. Vallery,

Danger From Catarrh.

The most important feature about that
very common complaint, catarrh in the
head, is its tendency TO develope into
some other more serions and dangerous
disease. The foul matter dropping from
the head into the bronchial tubes or lungs
is very liable to lead to bronchitis or
consumption, that destroyer which causes
more deaths 10 this country than any
other disease. As catarrh originates n
impurities il the blood, local applica-
tlons can do but little good. The con-
mon sense method of treatment is to
purify the blood, and for this purpose
there ls 20 preparation superior to
Hoods Sarsaparlla. The powerful ac-
tion of this medicine upon the blood ex-
pels every impurity, and by so doing
cures catarrh and gives health to the en-
tire organism.

Grand Canon OF Colorado River,

On the Santa Fe route, in northern
Arizona, 1852 miles from Kansas CITY, is
the town of Flagstaff. A tri-weekly stage
line runs from Flagstaff to the Grand
Canon of the Colorado river. More than
mile in depth, this is the sublimest of
gorges-a' Titan of chasms. Twenty
Yosemites might be hidden unseen below,
and Niagara would look scarcely larger
than brook.

AMERICAN CATTLE.
Germany Wants to Trade with us and
the Prohibition an Importation
Will Doubtless BE Re-
Scinded.

Berlin, Nov. SIT has come to the
knowledge of the United States embassy
that the statement that prohibition
against the landing of American cattle
by Germany was based on sanitary rea-
sons is without foundation. 1t appears
that the Hamburg sanitary authorities
passed two cargoes of the cattle in ques-
tion as healthy and thereupon the Prus-
sian sanitary officers were ordered to
Hamburg and subsequently announced
that the cattle were afflicted with Texas
fever. The cattle shippers of Hamburg
are indignant at the action: of the Prus-
sian authorities as they have recently
built four cattle steamers for the Amer
lean service and these are rendered use
less by prohibitory orders recently issued.

do not mean dead in the sense that busi-

towns arc given over 10 utter desolation
and decay. 1t is a startling experience In
following some old trail in the mountains
to come upon a deserted town. onco
while climbing high mountain in the
southern part OF the state, ut an altitude
of about 5000 feet, ] came upon an aban-
doned mining camp. Thero was a long
street Of houses, all empty but one, from
whose chimney the smoke was laxily curl

tho fort all alone, living on the memory Of
former days and on the hope Of still strik-
ing II rich. A few years before every
house was crowded; saloons, gambling
and dance houses were in full blast and
the streets filled with excited men. But
suddenly everything collapsed, the boom
went down and the deserted houses were
left to rot In tho summer rains or bo
