There was a material falling off in
the volume of business at the stock eX-
change today, the sales of stocks
amounting to 1882 shares. Specula-
ton throughout was feverish and I'M
settled. and the tendency of prices was
downward. Professional operators gen
orally were arrayed on the short side
of the account, but here and there evil
dences We're plain of covering by I'M
portant interests. One broker, sup
posed to be connected with Keene in
terests, bought 5000 shares of sugar
and 1000 shares of Jersey Central.
These purchases, however. had little
influence on the general market. Lon
I don also turned up as a liberal buyer
of st. Paul and other stocks, taking
fully 5000 shares of the former. Local
traders ignored these developments,
and at each advance put out moderate
lines.
The decision of the United States
supreme court in the case of the
Trans Missouri Freight association is
still the main bear argument, and OPP
orators for lower prices seemed to be
quite confident that in the end the
courts ruling will result in general
decentralization of railway rates. A ru-
nor from Washington that a bill per-
hitting po3ling by the roads would
shortly be introduced received little
credit in usually well-informed quar-
tiers, in view of the fate of the Patter-
son measure.
The pressure to sell was most pro-

the bears. but after the smaller shorts

A SILVER VICTORY.

1t seems that our commissioners
working for the interest of silver in
Europe have scored signal victory in
influencing the bank of England to
hold one fifth of its reserve in silver.
The immediate effect of this announce
ment was slight rise in the price OF
the white metal This, doubtless, will
put stop to the decline in price and
will serve as stepping stone to some
thing of more Importance
1t is difficult to estimate the good
that will result from this to Colorado
Had silver continued to decline in
value a number of mines that are now
in operation would have had to close
down and many men would have beer
thrown out of employment. The
chances are now that there will be a
steady advance in the value of silver
thanke to Mr. Wolcott and his col
leagues.

THE STATE HOARD.

All the members of the state Board
of Horticulture, except President Co.
burn. and he was represented by his
wife, were present looking after the
interests of the Fair and enjoying the
Fruit Day Festival. The present state
board grew out of the old State Horti
cultural Society. which was organized
in 1888. The old society had a more or
less successful career until about -four
years ago q bill was passed organizing
the present board The board now con
sists of six members, the secretary and
president both being members of the
board. The object Of the board is 10
encourage and promote Horticulture In
the state and to make concerted
action against insects and pests that
injure the fruit and trees. The state
appropriation for use of the board is
only $500 per year, which is entirely
too small a sum with which to do much
good.
The members of the board have
worked hard to make success of the
Fair this year and have succeeded well.
All but the president have been here
during the entire session and have per
sonally looked after the exhibits. It is
unfortunate that Mr.. Coburn cannot
be with us. He is one of the largest
fruit-growers on the Western slope,
having a fine orchard at Hotchkiss,
Delta county, and is a recognized auth
ority on all things pertaining to IIorti-
culture.

here several days experimenting tina

Mrs. sbuts, she having bssn present
and assisted In every STATE Fair since

A CERTAIN great man in Colorado

A CERTAIN great man in Colorado
politics thinks it very inconsistent fol
Judge Hayt to accept the nomination
for supreme judge on the two Republi-
can tickets and he is making great
deal of fuss about it. Let it be remem-
bered that only few short months ago
this same great man was elected to a
high office by combination of Silver
Republicans who profess to believe IN
high tariff, the Democrats who advo-
cate free trade, and the Populists who
do not believe in anything the other
parties do save silver; and then he was
very wrathy indeed because a half
dozen Republican members of the
legislature would not vote for him
His standard of consistency is away
up.

HAYT ACCEPTS.

If any doubt has ever existed as to
whether Judge Hayt would accept the
nomination given him by the Republi-
cans at Denver that doubt is now dis.
PEELED The following letter of accept
ance has been written by Judge Hayt
to Chairman Geo. Wallen, of the late
Republican conventions:
l have this day filed with the secre.
tary of state. in accordance with law,
my acceptance of the nomination ten
dered me 10y the Republican conventions
over which you presided Before tax
ing this step l conferred with delegates
and Others and thoroughly satisfied my
self that the convention did not make
The nomination under misapprehen-
sion as to my views upon the subject
of silver. The members of that con-
vention well knew that 1 am and al
ways have been in favor of the free
and unlimited coinage of silver and
gold at the ratio of l6 to | by the
United States alone, and that | have
affiliated and voted with the Silver
Republican party of the state since its
| organization. In accepting the nomi
nation sc generously rendered by the
| convention, l am, of course, not to be
understood us changing or modifying
in the least my views upon this subject
which is regarded as of controlling and
i nara mount importanoa
| Understanding, as the convention
must have done, my political principles
and affiliations, am led to believe that
higher political conception than mere
partisanship controlled its action. 1t
was wisely believed by the founders of
our judicial system that they whose
duty it is TO interpret the laws of our
land should be removed as far as posi-
ble from partisan influence; hence they
provided that the members of our high
est judicial tribunal the Supreme
court of the United States should be
appointed by the president, and ap-
pointed for life. The people are now
rapidly returning to this exalted idea
of our forefathers, and while they do
not, and probable should not, look To-
ward life tenure of Office, they do de-
mand III great measure the divorce
ment of the judiciary from politics.
Therefore in accepting the support of
divers and diverse political parties at
this time, am satisfied that but obey
the better political thought and instinct
of the people of our state. Having oc-
cupied position upon the supreme
bench of the state for nine years, l feel
especially gratilied with the endorse
ment implied by the action of my
fellow citizens in attendance upon the
Republican convention, by the tender
of an unsolicited and unanimous nomi-
nation.

is quite anxious to have the next state

Loveland state Fair is well known for
