IT'S AN INSPIRATION
Judge Caldwell Declares the Chicago
Ticket Is the Fest Possible.
SENSE
II Mckinley Is the Napoleon OF the
Gold Forces, Bryan IS the
Wellington of the allied
Silver Forces.

Glenwood Springs. Col. July IA
Judge Henry G. Caldwell. when asked
his opinion Of the work OF the demo-
cratic convention. replied: The wis
dom OF Its action almost amounts 10
inspiration. No better man and no
sohnder platform could have been pre-
sented 10 the American people by any
party In third OF a century II marks
an epoch in the political history of this
country. For 25 years the people of
this country have been beguiled and
deluded by the false and dccelttul
promises OF botl the great political par
ties that they would restore to them
the money OF the constitution. The
Chicago convention. voicins the senti-
ments of the people. has repudiated the
action of the democratic president and
Joined issue with the gold standard re-
publicans. The Chicago convention is
the first national convention held by
either of the great political parties for
a quarter OF century which has not
been dominated by Wall street inilu-
ence and ideas.
"The democratic party has had a
new birth: II has freed itself from the
taint of Tammany and the influence
Of Wall street. This has been done In
such a clear and pronounced manner
that Senator Hill Is forced to declare
that not a single plank In the platform
enunciates democratic pr ipl s. mean
ing. OF course. democratic principles
according to the Tammany and Wall
street standard.
when those who support gold
standard. a Mckinley tariff. with all
its concommittants of monopolies and
trusts and the principles of Tammany
hall and Wall street, denounce a plat
form Of principles. that is good evil
dence that II enunciates sound princl-
pies and deserves the approval and
support OF the honest masses. III Me-
Klnley Is the Napoleon OF the gold
standard. Bryan is the Wellington OF
the allied silver forces. and the his
eorical parallel will be complete. except
that this modern Napoleon. after his
Waterloo. will go to the headwaters OF
Salt river instead Of st. Helena"

chair from the depot to the A riiDgton Hotel
The major said:
Il was not present in an official ca
paciiy last evening. and the department
force at TN depot was in charge of Capt
Austin.
Il should state, however, that the pt,-
liSe did not refuse t. carry the chair. for
the reason that they were not ordered
Ia do so. Capt Austin was approached
at the depot and asked ii any arrange
H,eEts had been made for the detail of

replied that there had not been, anil
that is all there Is TO say about it.
