An ofiicioas party from n BAR Olathe
has been spending the last week visiting
delegates to the district representative
convention soliciting their support
against certain candidate, and through
spite. we fear they have handled the
truth rather carelessly. "Ye pencil
pusher" attended the peoples party dis
trict representative convention held here
last Saturday, and not being delegate,
was very much amused at the proceed
ings. At the start there was only about
one aspirant for each delegate, but af-
ter long preliminary caucus, they were
thinned down to three. namely, Neil Hor-
ton, VIM. Williams and Mrs. Norton.
Boss Fairlamb OF the Delta delegation
promised to throw their vote to the
choice Of the Montrose delegates, as they
we're to have the nominee; but after par
taking OF bountiful repast with Boss
Ash Of Ash mesa, he either forgot his
RAothioC VI ioot ga ACSPCSe AL
ness-through his associations-and in
the third ballot threw his entire vote
to the candidate receiving the lowest
vote, thereby nominating Mrs. Norton
Of Montross. We have nothing to say
against the lady, but as she was not the
choice Of Montrose county, she cannot
expect their support on Nov. 3rd.
Representatives from both democrat and
silver republican parties were present
with view to fusion. provided the con-
vention named the right man. but un-
der the circumstances went away dis
gusted, and will in the near future nom.
inate man who all good. true populists
can support. and leave the middle Of the
readers to support the candidate Of their
choice. Ex-CoLoRow.
