THE democratic state convention
at Denver Monday was controlled
by the white wings and the Nc
Kinley men, so the News Claims.
Tho nominee, John A. Gordon, of
Trinidad, is . Grover Cleveland
democrat or was four years ago.
This puts the democratic party
back where it WINS when Charley
Thomas was its candidate for gov
ernor in 1894. IfMr. Gordon gets
S,3l7 votes in the state he will do
Ms we'll as Charley Thomas at the
last time the democratic party put
out q straight ticket. This is a
good year for the several parties
to show their strength and it is IL
pity the two so-called republican
parties did not have the courage to
show their relative strength.

the next decade has in store for

We remarked last week that
there was practically no opposition
to Senator Moody for county treas
urer. John Hasff cannot quite
forget the little tilt which he and
the senator had over the Bridge

senator for defeating the Home re-
moval bill which Lewis Lobbled
for all winter at Denver.
