CAMBRIDGE. Mass. Jan. 9.-Hnr-
wards professors, through the Grim
son, to-day, publish two replies to
Theodore Roosevelts recent letter. one
by Professor James. of the philOsophl-
cal department. and the other By j. u.
Warner. OF the class OF 90, a prominent
BastoH lawyer.
Professor James says:

Men at the student age are easily
swayed by phrases. But trust that no
catch words or nick names will deter
Harvard students from beginning the
fight just at this point and doing what
little they can towards bringing the
threatened increase OF armament TO

Mr.. Warner refers TO Mr.. Roosevelt's
statement IN these words:
''The United States, which has been
only half aware that there was any
Venezuelan question, has suddenly
been startled by an ultimate demand
made upon the country with which we
have the closest ties OF interest and
sympathy and thin coupled with an eN-
plicit threat Of war. For three weeks
thinking men have talked OF nothing
else. and there has been no stint OF out
spoken criticism. Unless Mr.. Roose-

BOULDER. Colo. Jan. s.-Great ex-
element prevails here over the new
gold field situated between South Boul-
der creek and Magnolia and there are
rumors of riches being uncovered by
prospecturs In holes NOT over five feet

SiO0. 900. and IN offer OF this amount q
said to have been made and refused.
Ffunk d. Baker cime down from Wall
KEYS ranch and reports that several
sacks OF quartz had been sent TO the
samplIng works from the claim discov-
cred by the White brothers. The gold
was sticking out all over the quartz.
md no accurate estimate could : be
formed OF the value OF the stun. but IT
viii be sold by the pound instead of ton.
The paintings made from the ore are
said to be wonderful. as great rings
OF gold form around the pan with each
test OF washing.
The proSpectors are Wild over the
outlook for great mining boom and
about 500 men are working day and
night IN search OF veins.
The new gold discoveries are on the
same mineral belt as the rich Telluride
mine of Bailarat, Jannetown and Gold

II. L Forrest. delega,s 70 the St Louis
convention from this state. expects to
leave here at a date not later than the
18th inst. Regarding the probable action
at st. Louis. Mr.. Forrest today said:
Speaking for myself / am free to say
that 1 viii be guided by circumstances.
After my arrival In s.. Louis. following
a thorough review OF the situation. belicv-
Ing that the best interests Of the Peoples
party will thereby be best subserysd. I
viii vote for an Endorsement Of Mr.. Bry-
an. But / am not In a position now TO
commit myself In advance. 90 far
removed from the scene OF action. to any
line OF action so far a. the question OF
fusion II concerned. There are certain
things which have already occurred TO
indicate that an immense pressure VIII
be brought to bear upon the Popuiist con-
yention TO bring about the Endorsement OF
Bryan. There IL little doubt In my mind
that this win be bitterly opposed By rad
zeal element who believe the best inter
ests OF our party viii be subserved by
independent action. A mans personal
preferences should not be allowed 10
stand In the way OF what he knows 10
be the interest Of his party. I am an In
strument In the hands OF my party ana
shall be guided by circumstances an Ind
them At ST. Louis"
Ex-Gov Newell expresses himself az un-
qualiaediy In favor OF fusion He regards
Bryan az the embodiment OF the Popuiist
faith. and the platform formulated at Chi
cago as stolen thunder; the Pcpulist idea
expressed IN party platform in advance
OF the meeting Of the Populist national
convention
There 10 a wing Of the Peoples party In
this county that favors Or. Newelrs nogni-
nation by his party for gubernatorial hon
ors. On this proposition. however. the
uirras do not enthusa. and II now appears
that the ex-governor Will hardly be able
to carry into the state convention the
solid support OF his own county. The
opposition OF the radical men TO the doctor
IS mainly based upon the fact that two
years ago ne accepted a nomination upon
the Democratic ticket for the legislature.
1t was thought at the time that this NOM
nation would receive the sanction or the
PopuIist county convention TO meet later
upon the snything-to-beat-Scob idea
But the PopuIisfs refused TO take the bait,
and utterly refused 20 indorse Newell
upon the Democratic ticket. though he
could have received a straight nominal
ton from the Peoples party for the same
position II he had Withdrawn from the
Democratic ticket. This he refused TO do.
and his alleged sin remains unforgfven
by the ultra element 10 this day.
