The Cold Convention.

1t grieves US to notice the seeming will
ingness on the part of great many
Coloradoans TO endorse Louis EriCh's
gold convention. If our friends will be
true and will style the convention the
Colorado Gold Miners Convention, we
will be glad to lend our assistance and
do all we can TO make it a success; but
it makes our blood boil to see the ennis
saries of Mckinley and Wolcott trying
to befuddle our people and get them to
incriminate themselves. There is a diff
ference between the objects sought for.
Coloradoans would not object to the
Gold Miners Convention, but we seri.
ously doubt If any of them desire TO go
on record as standing behind gold con.
venton. We cannot afford to let any
such ideas go abroad. Colorado is true
to blmesallism, and any effort of Mr..
Ehtich's, or anybody else, to create a
false record for the state on this question
will not be tolerated. .-DenverN New Road.

The CRY Dads Provide for Five Years
Supply of Electric Light
A special meeting of the city council
convened in the council room last Satur.
day for the consideration of the electric
light contract and the franchise of the
| lntermountain railway.
The petition and ordinance of the rail
way company had been presented at the
previous meeting of the council and re
fered to the city attorney, with instruc-
tons to report at this special meeting.
| Accordingly the city attorney made his
repor. last Saturday, which was to the
effect that the ordinance and right of
way were erroneous and would need to
be redrafted. The council thereupoh
appointed new committee to redraft
! the ordinance and present at the next
regular meeting. The committee com.
Prised City Attorney Campbell, City Sur
veyor Teal and City Clerk Stafford.
The electric light contract, as drafted
by the Electric Light company, and
based upon the schedule of prices pre-
sented to the council previously and re-
ported IN these columns at the time, was
then presented for consideration.
The contract, in brief, presents a
schedule according to the time, from one,
two, three and five years, with prices
ranging from 50, sS.75, s8 50 and s8 re-
spectively, and, according to the action
of the council at the last meeting, pro-
vides for term of five years at SS per
light A proviso is attached, allowing
the city to terminate its contract at any
time, at a years notice, and provides tor
the payment of light for the time used at
the rate contracted for in the schedule in
case the full term Of the contract has not
expired. If the contract is announced
as terminated at the expiration of one
year, then, according to the contract, the
company would continue to supply the
City for another year and charge the
1915 rate; if for three or four years, the
$3.50 rate, no special rate being provid,
ed for four year term.
Alderman Hubbard moved the ac-
ceptanCe of the contract. Mr.. Russell,
in order to effect saving to the city in
the event of termination of the contract
at the expiration of four years, amended
the motion so as to include the insertion
of an sS Is rate for four year term.
After spirited discussion the amend
ment was lost by a vote of 4 to 2, Tenn
pie, Hubbard, Coah and Earl voting nay,
Russell and Fisher aye. Morrison and
Autrey absent. BY a to vote Mr..
Hubbard's motion was then carried.
After some routine business the coun-
Gil then adjourned.

Bryan states that he expects 10 reach San
Francisco on the morning of Saturday,
July 3. His intention is TO leave imme-
dately for Los Angeles, however as he
has already accepted the invitation of the
Silver Republican Club to speak there on
July 5. ~.
He will return TO San Francisco on July

Woodward 8 Pavilion in the evening. On
the way to Los Angeles stop Will proba-

but the programme is not yet complete.
On the return from Los Angeles Mr.
Bryan will spea or appear 81 as many
places as the, com mittee can arrange for.

hands Of the local committee, stipulating
only that he must leave for Oregon on the
evening of the S.h of July.
He has consented 10 deliver an address
at Sacra N ento and-other places en- route if

willing to address the people OF Alameda

to do SO from the people of that county
