Ho, shot from Ed woleott.

The republican rally at Colorado
Springs on Tuesday night was the
largest and most enthusiastic politi.
cal gathering in the history Of the
state. The speech OF Senator VOL
colt was one of the most powerful
arguments of the campaign, and the
rally on the whole amply disproves
the claims that there is no Mckinley
sentiment in Colorado. The follow
ing is one extract from Woleott's 5
speech, and we sincerely regret we
cannot publish the entire speech:
"0thers may find it easy to aban-
don the convictions OF lifetime on

The result of the various decker
ings for office at the state conventions
last week was that the pops and a
portion of the silverites fused, and
the democrats fused with the Denver

that claim to be in politics from prin-
eiple only.

Last week the democrats were hrag-

Washington. Oct. 6.-The announce
ment that Bishop ]. J Keane had been
deposed by the pope as rector of the
Catholic university. one of the greatest
educational institution under the man
agement of the church. came as a sur
prise to every one. The simultaneous
arrival in this country OF Archbishop
Martinelh has caused Roman Catholics
to advance the theory that the removal
OF the titular bishop of Ajasso was
brought about through his efforts.
Bishop Keane. however. denies this as
does DIR. Rocker. IL is generally as
sumed by Roman Catholics that the re-
moval OF Bishop Keane Is the first of a
series of important changes in church
management TO be made by Archbish-
op Martihelli
DIR. Rocker. who has been Cardinal
Satolli's secretary. and will remain
with Archbishop Martinelli in that ca
pacity. says that the removal OF Bish-
op Keane is being sadly misunderstood
IL was the intention Of the pope. he
said a year ago TO remove the rector of
the university and select a new field
for Bishop Keane. In a statement pre-
pared for publication Bishop Keane
says that he welcomes his removal, as
ne has considered his duties were be-
yond his strength and abilities. Ger
man influence. IL is thought. had much
TO do with the pope's action. There is
absolutely no knowledge OF whom will
be selected as the new rector Of the un-
iversity. The only name mentioned in
this connection is that OF Bishop Spald
