Judge Caldwell Says Teller Is
the Most Popular Man
That Could Be Nominated By
Free Silver Forces.
WORDS FOR HIM.
Judge Caldwell Praises the Col
OradO Man Highly.
Texas Democrats In Favor of
Teller For President.

Denver, June 22.-The News prints a
lengthy interview with Judge Henry
c. Caldwell, of Little Rock, who is
spending his vacation in Colorado.
The judge expressed the hope that
the free silver forces viii unite upon
one candidate. Regarding the man
most likely TO be selected. he said:
There are plenty of good men I think
the Populists and silver Republicans
will support Mr.. Teller, Mr.. Bland, or
any pronounced and reliable silver man
who is known to have the requisite
courage and resolution, without regard
to his previous politics"
In regard to Senator Teller's candida
cy in the south he said: THE splendid
moral courage which he exhibited when
he repudiated the anti-Republican ac-
tiOn of his party, at St. Louis, has been
exhibited on other occasions.
More than once in the senate he has
defed the party lash, and the behests
of the party caucus, and stood up in
the defense of the rights Of the south
ern people. His determined hostility
to the force bill, defeated that measure,
people. and should he be the candidate
he viii be enthusiastically supported
by them I know that he is universally
regarded by the leading Democrats Of
the south as an able, courageous, pat
riotic and broad-minded statesman, and
that upon the supreme issue now be-
fore the American people he is the ac-
knOWledged leader of the right"

prominent figure in the district court
room this morning was Mrs. Elsie
Cleveland, who is suing Jacob Wal

care of his daughter-in-law, Mrs. John
Walters, during the time she was sick

Jacob Walters agreed to pay her SO a

silver delegates to the state Demo-

Tuesday, have arrived in this city.
They stated that Individually they We're
not at all averse to the Endorsement of
Teller by the Democrats; that. as the
issue of the campaign was to be on sill
Yer and gold, they believed all factions,
irrespective of party lines, would afili-
ate to win the battle: that Teller would
poll q strong Republican following, and
that if the Democrats and POpulsts en-
dorsed his canvass and supported him
that he would undoubtedly be the next
president
The address issued by the Populists
in St. Louis indOrsing Teller is learned
and caused many of the silver Demo-
Gratis who have arrived to say that
they would work in the state cOnven-
tion Tuesday for an Endorsement of
Teller. and that they believed they
