Colorado Court Only Recognizes Sill
yer Republicans As Boilers.
Denver, Colo, Oct. 15.-The Su-
preme court has decided that the sill
yer Republican party is without
standing in court, and that the only
vestige of the organization rests with
the followers of Mckinley, as the
boilers by repudiating the platform of
the St. Louis convention forfeited all
claim to recognition in this state. The
court goes into an exhaustive review
of the proceedings incidental to the
contest and then concludes that the
Mckinley men cannot be deprived Of
their right through the autocratic &C
ton of state official whose duties
are merely clerical.
The ruling gave to Mckinley men
the right to suggest judges and
clerks Of election, and practically
places all the machinery of the cleo
ton at their hands. The same situa-
ton occurs in Ell Paso and Pueblo
counties.
