Tho Brown Palace Thronged With Men
and Women Who Pay Their Respects

and +. ID. Coe

Denver, Sept. 3.-An elaborate
public reception was rendered to
Senator Edward o. Wolcott at the
Brown Palace hotel Saturday night.
which in point of numbers was a high
compliment to him. The reception be.
gan at 7:3O o'clock, and the formalities
We're concluded by 0. AT that hour
Senator Woicott descended from the
platform on which he sat and for over
one hour was engaged in shaking the
hands of those people who had assem-
bled to bid him welcome home again.
The rotunda, grand staircase and
first two balconies of the hotel We're
filed with people, while the ratings
of the third, fourth and fifth balconies
were lined with faces. The edifice was
decorated in bunting and flowers, and
presented a beautiful appearance.
Senator Wolcott and the reception
committees of the Mining Exchange
and Chamber of Commerce occupied a
platform at the base of the staircase.
Over them hung silken American flags.
AT the capitals of the onyx pillars flank
ing the platform were floral pieces, one
bearing the words "Silver Ed and
the other a silver dollar mounted in
roses.
Addresses of welcome were delivered
by Caldwell Yeaman and Earl b. Coe.
In response Senator Wolcott said in
part:
mfr. President of the Chamber of
CONNER ce, Ladies and Gentlemen-If
the very kind things which the distin,
guished vice-president of the Chamber
of Commerce, my friend, Judge Yea
man, and the equally kind things
which my friend Mr. Coe have said of
me were true, should be at no loss to
explain this magnificent ovation. AS it
Is, the reasons for it are not far to
seek. There have been for us all for
many months now dark and troublous
days. We have seen the material in
terests of our splendid state, built up
after years of toll, largely destroyed
by national legislation. We have seen
great interests sacrificed and all values
In the state unsettled. We have passed
through the throcs Of agitation and dis
furbance which necessarily accompany
such a condition Of affairs, until each
day has uShercd in some fresh disaster
and each night has seemed unrelieved
by hope.
THE inevitable tendency of such a
condition of affairs is to bring men
closer to each othcr-and common In
terest. and common concern, and COM
non loyalty to our commonwealth have
served largely TO obliterate party lines
and traditions; have almost completely
destroyed the traces of old differences
and party disputes. and have led every
good citizen to stand together shoulder
to shoulder for the interests of Colo
RADIO fapplausel, and to me who has
stood as one Of your representatives
has been extended that splendid fell
lowship which embraces every citizen
who values the future of the state.

China rs u War Power.

The greatest homogeneous nation that the
world has ever known is at war. for no
other nation known to history could boast
of the 420,OOOO0O Inhabitants that Chinese
statistics nllOt to their country. Now that
the problem is worked out before our eyes
we see that three-fourths of the population
is worthless for the present war 1t Is quite
probable that all the forces used Will be
drawn from the two or three seacoast
provinces A. general draft from the whole
country would bring together men of more
dialects than the building of Babel brought
on u.s.
The striking disparity of about eleven to
one In population between China and Japan
is not the controlling factor. Still the
northern seacoast provinces of China are
quite populous enough to sustain Il war
with Japan on equal terms. The imperial
government is rich enough to enlist Il
swarm OF European officers, arm its troops
with the best weapons and obtain supplies
from foreign makers. During the last five
or SIX years the Chinese have been going
through one Of their periodical fits of
egotlsm, economy and dislike of the for
eigner. and have discharged many of
their foreign servants AS they could spare
All that Will now be changed and n ready
welcome Will be given to the adventurous
spirits of all countries.-Army and Navy

ARAPAHoE FOR WAITE.
Early Action of the PopuiIst Convention

Denver, Aug. 3.-The county conven-
ton of the Peoples party met here
Saturday. The contest between the
Waite and anti-Waite forces was very
bitter and protracted. The only busl-
ness accomplished before midnight was
the election of $. Il. Pratt, Waite
man. for chairman, and the appoint
mept of the committees. Adjourn
ment was taken to s o'clock Monday
morning.
The committee on credentials, winch
began its sitting on Saturday evening
and which remained in session all
night. had IL majority for Waite and it
decided all of the fifteen contests, with
one exception, in the governors favof.
This decision added about forty to the
majority the governor had when the
convention adjourned on Saturday
night. AT that time the Waite man
ayers state the vote stood 249 for nm
and 10 against.
The fifty delegates TO the state CON
ycntion were instructed for Waite.

OKLAHOMA is GUARANTEED
rhus the New Mexican Herds are Pre-
vented From SncaISing In.

Denver, Sept. Ex-Governor Waite
has issued a quarantine proclamation
against Oklahoma. State Veterinarian
GreSswell returned Saturday morning
from the south, having discovered that
New Mexico herders. who were barred
from driving their herds into Colorado
under the quarantine laws established
a month ago. We're driving to the strip
and intended entering Colorado from
that territory. In this way it would
be possible to evade the quarantine
laws. DR.. Grcsswell carried this in
formation to the governor and caused
Il quarantine to be established against
the strip.
Now the New MeXicans are expected
to retaliate. DIR. Gresswell has been
notified that New Mexico will issue a
quarantine against Colorado sheep. 1t
is the custom in certain seasons of the
wear for Southern Colorado sheep herd
ers to drive into New Mexico. Some
sheep in the southern part of the state
are affected with scab. The New Mex
leans will seek to get even by quaran-
timing these sheep.

In British Columbia.

In British Columbia a prospector is
required to take out a license, which
costs him So, and he pays $3.50 for
recording his claim. He is allowed to
make two locations in district.
Claims are located 1900 feet square
and no discovery is necessary before
a location is made. A discovery must
be made, however, within 10 days af-
ter the date of the location. One hun
dred dollars must be expended on each
claim every year. When $500 worth
of work has been done on II claim a
crown grant, equivalent to our patent,
can be secured for about 500. After
that the government requires the pay
ment of $50 year on each claim.

The age of Niagara Falls has been
variously estimated at from 5000 to
5000 years, according to the data
employed by the computers. In a
paper read before the Royal Society
recently Prof. Spencer, after consider
ing the whole geological and other an
tecedents of the lake country, arrives
at the conclusion that the years of the
Falls are 31,0OO, to which must be
added another thousand years, as the
age of the river before the nativity of
its great cataract. The recession of
the Falls he calculates at 3.75 feet per
annum. But any differences from this
must be complicated by the fact that
the lake region is slowly rising at the
rate of from 1.25 feet to 2.5 feet in a
century. Accordingly, if the present
rate of uplift continues, the falls will
be brought to an end before they have
reached Lake Erie by the diversion of
the waters of the upper lakes by way
of Chicago to the Mississippi. How
ever, as this event cannot take place
for 1000 or 5000 years, there is no
necessity for making immediate prep
arations against this evil day.

The total manufactures of the
United States in 1890, according to
the last census returns, amounted in
,alue to 50, O54, 435, o37, of which we
exported to the value of Sl5l, 1O9, $40,

In the same way we must deal with

was So, AGO, 1ci. 454. We exported to
the extent of s532, III, 400, leaving

the world that we may expect to Sc
cure'
The markets of the world comprise
only such goods as are imported by
the different countries of the world,
because we can not claim TO supply
them with what they already manu-
facturc or grow in their own coun-
tries, unless they propose free trade,
as the democratic party would have
US do. They are not so foolish, how
ever Other countries prefer to re-
tain what they already possess rather
Fan throw away the substance for
the shadow. We find from the Amer
can Almanac of 1888 that the total
IMPORTS of all other countries in the
world at the latest date for which
complete returns are available, were
as follows:
TOTAL FOREIGN IMPORTS,
Europe. Asia, Africa, North and
South America, Australia and
the Islands OF the Sea. &c, 1852, 10000
