DENVER, Nov Ex-Governor Waite has
written the following letter to II. g. CLARK,
chairman of the Populist state central
committee.
~ am informed that you feel badly over
the result. of course a great deal of fault
Is found. Nobody knew that the old cow
would eat up grindstone 1t would be
singular indeed if there had been no fault
found with the management, but / am
persuaded that nothing was done by the
state central committee or by any of the
candidates that could have changed the re-
suit. We may as well accept our defeat
philosophically We have lost this fight,
but our cause is just, and therefore i'm
mortal.
"In an especial manner wish TO inn
press upon you my entire confidence in
your integrity. The stars in their courses
have fought against us, but freedom S
battle bequeathed from sire TO son, though
often lost, is ever won.'"
