THE CITY OF DENVER.

Denver is beautiful city, almost
surrounded by mountains, and excur-
sions in every direction bring you to
grand and gorgeous scenery. Our
party is being royalty entertained and
we are given every opportunity to
see ali there is in Colorado on top of
the ground. Denver is growing some,
but the people here are waiting for
the election of Bryan and Sewali and
free silver for the good times. Free
silver and irrigation are the two great
questions here. Irrigation viii make
things blossom on top of the ground
and free silver will make things boom
in the earth beneath. The women
and children cut quite figure In pol
itics here. The women vote and at
tend the primaries and take their chill
dren even the babies at the breast
with them. At Populist meeting
here to-day one woman had three
kids from three weeks to three years
old hanging to her while she shouted

lutions with both hands. / was dis
gusted. Woman-lovely woman-is
no longer lovely or modest, or the
mother or wife we love, when she
gets into politics. Politics Is bad
enough for men, but God deliver us
from the woman politician. When
the women get into politics the homes
are gone. Without homes what would
this country be.

caution IS added, too, regarding the abuse
of the ribbon, originally used to hide the
winding flower string. 1t has grown into
proportions rs ridiculous as the hugo bou-

questionable taste. "These yards Of folly
are now replaced, -" says this writer in The
Queen Of Fashion, "by the woman of re-
fnement by a narrow bit of green ribbon,
so transformations that it can hardly be
distinguished from the leaves. Ribbon
should never be employed unless valid
reason for its use can be given. 1t must
always be a necessary ornament; never a
vain appendage. A pretty conceit for
Easter when flowers, both cut and potted,
in preference to other gifts, are sent to
express Easter greetings, is the earthen
pot filled with moist moss, in which cut
flowers are placed The pot is banded by
a rich bow of ribbon, on which the card of

THE CONGRESS ROAD.
It Is in Smooth and Satisfactory Work
 ing Order Nowadays.

Journal Miner: The introduction of the oil burning apparatus on loco motives, attended at first with some degree of speculation in the case of the engine on the Congress Gold con- pany's railroad, is now at rest, and the had been of the standard character. In mechanical appearance the loco motive differs from the ordinary coal burner, being of the latest design, sets lower down to the track and is no- ticeably heater in its general appear ance than the engines of the old type. There is but one person in the cab and that is Engineer Harry Elliott In speaking of his new engine and the dual work he performs he says it is no trick at all, although at times he has both feet and hands at work. One ad- vantage the new engine has over the old is that no sparks or cinders what ever are thrown from the stack, there by relieving the road of any liability in setting buildings on fire.
 The road is four miles in length, solidly built and rides smoothly. T. J. Carrigan superintended its con- struction and of course maintains it in excellent condition still, serving his company in the above capacity as su- perintendent
 In glanciDg at this road and sizing up its operation a coincidence faces one of the peculiar character in this The rails on this road were originally used on the old P. & "A. c. when built nearly ten years ago. Harry Elliott was among the first engineers and Tom Carrigan was also among the first conductors. After ceasing operations Carrigan and Elliott went over to the S. F., P. & F., working harmoniously together Elliott finally quit the s. F., P. & F. and Carrigan followed on a hot trail Now they are together again running on the same steel rails they did years ago on the P. & A. C. They seem to be inseparable and in their work are a team hard to con quer, having a record in service with out a mishap and without a Switch. '

 During the morning ride MT. Bryan said to an Associated Press represen- tative: T am more than gratifed with the demonstration of last evening which far surpassed anything that I expected. I am pleased to find so unanimous a sentiment in favor of the endorsement of the action of the Chi cago convention. From what I have seen in New York and by sentiments expressed by members of the state or ganization I am satisfied that the state convention will endorse the platform as we'll as the ticket. Some delegates may oppose parts of the platform, but it is the National platform and will be accepted as a whole"
