at st. Louis with Teller as their leader
have found themselves badly out in the
cold. The Republican State COMMITTEES
met IN Denver on Wednesday, and TO
their dismay and astonishment the sill
ver.ites discovered that the Republicans
had a ma jority. Mckinley and Hobart
were Endorsed. This meant much TO
the Popocrats, for they had been count
ing on controlling the committee and
turning over the Republican party,
which controls IS per cent of the vote
of the state to free silver. The boilers
led by A. NJ. Stevenson, who was Tel
ler's faithful follower in St, Louis, tried
TO make scene in the meeting, and
called the Republicans all sorts of names
| but by a vote of As to 3s the Republic
cans adopted the following resolutions:
| Believing that the best interests of
the United States, as we'll as the state
of Colorado demand the election of VIII
liam Mckinley as president and Gar
rett A. Hobart as vice president of the
United States, as nominated at the St
Louis convention, therefore be 1t
Resolved, That it is the sense of this
meeting that this committee shall take
such steps as are necessary to place
before the people of the state of Colo
| RADIO, for their suffrage in November, a
| straight Rpubiican ticket, headed by
Republican electors, who will cast their
vote, if opportunity offers, for McKin-
| ley and Hobart
Then Judge Hodge Of Colorado
| Springs a strong Mckinley sound mon
| ey man, was elected chairman by vote
of A to q. He requested the siiverites
| to leave the committee, as they were
no longer Republicans. A scene fol-
lowed. but the silverites finally de-
parted, and declared they were going
to cali another meeting. This is only
an example as to how the Colorado Re-
publicans are regulating Teller. The
coup d'etat of Thursday was engineer
ed by Senator Wolcott, who is exceed
ingly popular with the people of Colo
RADIO. OF course, the silver men are
mad, but the Republican party of Col
orado has put itself on record now for
Mckinley and Hobart.
The silver men are trying to recover
from this blow, and the Democrats
have issued a cali for a convention of
all 16 to l men, and have invited the
Bryan Republicans to attend. Senator
Teller seems to have disappeared from
public view. The silver party men have
come to the aid of the Popocrats, how
ever, and the secretary says they are
going to start the silver campaign right
away The orators are to be started
out at once.
Tn Nevada, things are are quiet, but
the following IS the latest piece of news
from that silver state. The Reno GaZ-
cite one of the leading papers of Ne
vada, has declared its intention to sup
port Mckinley and Hobart On the
ground that protection instead of silver
is the paramount issue of the campaign.
In Idaho the campaign started last
week, when the Republican leaders, af-
ter a two-day's conference, issued ring
ing manifestOs, prepared by Senator
Shoup. 1t appealed to all members of
the party to stand by the st. Louis
platform and the candidates. This
was read with much favor by the Re
publicans and the campaign has begun
in good shape.
In Wyoming the situation Is clearing
partly. Before the Chicago conven-
ton there were many who declared they
would vote for silver, but now that
Bryan is nominated and the people of
the state read his speeches, change
publican state machinery Is in line for
Mckinley and Hobart, and the Repub-
leans are that way too. The state
committee, under United States Senator
F. E. Warren, is doing splendid work.
The Popocrats are not idle. and have
begun their campaign too. They are
working hard, but it looks as il Wyo-
ming is going to refuse to leave the Re-
publican ranks and that in November
the state will go for Mckinley.
Reports from California are all Of the
favorable order. The bolt from Bry-
an among the Democrats increases.
In Los Angeles 1t is especially signifi-
cant. The Times the other day printed
a long list of Democrats who were for
Mckinley. while in San Francisco the
feeling for sound money IS very strong
Among the first 10 bolt in San Francisco
was John P. Irish, the best Democratic
political writer and speaker on the Pa
cific coast. He was in Chicago at the
time Of the Popocratic convention, and
before ne reached home he was a. Nc
Kinley man. The California Bankers
association issued a pamphlet on the
financial question on Thursday. Men,
bers believe the currency is a vital of
the campaign, and express their decid-
ed opinion that every vote against
free coinage of silver at the ratio of Is
to is vote for the return of conf
dence and prosperity for the benefit of
all classes, for the protection of your
families and homes, and, above all,
for the preservation of the country's
honor"
The campaign Is going TO open soon
IN the two Dakotas and while things
have been quiet there so far, the North
Dakota Republicans have held their
state convention and nominated state
ticket There does not seem TO be a
very overwhelming silver sentiment
in the Republican ranks, if the vote to
adopt a free silver resolution can be
taken as a criterion. The conven-
ton was held at Grand Forks, and there |
was great enthusiasm. The resolution |
10 indorse free silver was defeated by |
II yeas to 474 nays. whereupon the |
ST. Louis Republican platform was adop |
ted. Two county delegates refused TO |
vote.
There was fun az the Democratic and |
Populist convention which was held this /
week. There was fight over the sfotlS
party which should name the
candidate for governor. After bitter
meeting between the delegates II was
decided TO gamble and draw straws as
70 which should have the place. The
Populis,s won, and now the Democrats
are MAD.
In South Dakota things are looking
we'll according to the reports OF Re
pI,blicans from that state who have WIS.,
tied the national headquarters. The
bolt OF Pettigrew at St. Louis seems 70
have only hurt Pettigrew. for ne has
gone completely into the Populists'
