THE CURSE or ANARCHY.
The following explains itself:
"NcW York, july 81: 1894.
"Nlr. W. I. PoppIc, Ernest & Gran
mcr Building. Denver Col:
''Dcar Sir! wired yvu last night
as follows: Clients all decline loans
in Denver until after your election
This should have gone to you last
night, but by mistake was placed in
an envelope and sent YOU by mail,
consequently have wired this to you
this morning. The fact is, the al
in Colorado is 50 pcrmcatcd with an
archy that no man in the east will
loan Il dollar there until he knows
whether anarchy or honest men arc
to hc III control. The action Of vOlll
governor has done more to in l1t the
reputation Of Colorado than any Other
thing could possibly do. / have nc
use at all for Denver applications. ol
in fact in any part Of Colorado. and |
herewith return YOU the one YOU
scnj'mo, and until the people Of your
state come out plainly and elect a
respectable ticket younccd not expect
me to sell any Colorado securities.

ONLY ONE SENTIMENT.
=. II. Webb. 4 prominent real c>;-
tate man and Il member Of the firm
Of Wolfe, Webb & Cllittr1ldcn. said.
in speaking OF the harm caused by
the populiSt administration: "Thcrc
is only one sentiment felt among the
people in he cast on the sub! "c1 and
that is what they have learned from
pOpulist miSruIc in the state Of Kan
sas. The moment we elected Il pop
ulist outfit here it puts US in the
same category as Il pOpuliSt state. AS
long as it exists we Will be held at
arms length and this will continue
until the people Of the east learn
that the prevailing sentiment here i,
not populist. The credit of the state
is practically ruined in the east and
you may rest assured that it will re-
main so until they learn hat We mean
TO redeem the state. Ii seems to me
that we have already suffered enough
without having another two wears
Of populist misrulc saddlcd onto us =
10 USE FOR LUNATICS.
Wolfe LUnduncr--s'T much can
not be said Of the effect on business
Of the Waite adminisl ration, 1t has
kept money out Of the state and has
caused the withdrawal OF money that
was here for Investments. ] have
talked with 4 great many people from
Chicago and Milwaukee, people who
have interests here and who desire to
increase their interests. and without
exception they tell lie / hat they viii
make no further Investments willie
we have such Il crazy person at the
head Of the state government. I do
not see how HE populists can win
this Iall. but if they should there will
be a complete para vsis as Il result.
Should the republicans win there will
be an Immediate re viva!. We will
not have to wait until the new Of
fcials take their seats. The very
fact that populism has been defeated
will bring relief. | cannot think Of
any government thai would have 4
worse effect on our industries than
popuIjsm has had.
