Denver, Colo, Sept. 6.-The Demo
Gratis today in Denver decided that
hereafter there shall be no more fusion
by that party with any other. After
q very heated session, John A. Gordon
of Las Animas, a straight Democrat,
was nominated for supreme court JUS
tiee by the decisive vote of 233 to I67.
A notable event was the announcement
made on the floor of the convention by
a silver Republican that Judge Hayt
was nominated on Friday by the Re-
publicans at Denver and the silver Re
publieans at GIenwood would not ac-
cept the Denver nomination because it,
would neceSsitate his endorsement Of
the St Louis platform, whereas his
sympathies We're with that promuI-
gated at Chicago
The platform adopted. after referring
in lauddtory terms to Hon William j.
Bryan, and predicting his election to
the presidency in 1860, says:
We believe the free coinage of sill
yer at the ratio of 16 to to be the
paramount issue before the people of
this nation. and until settled rightly
it should be the supreme question in
every election. whether national or
local
1--WE expressly declare our opposition
to any movement which may be con-
strued as a waiver of the issue, and
pledge ourselves to do all incur power,
whether alone or in conjunction with
others, who believe in the same thing,
to defeat any candidate who accepts a
nomination by those who are opposed
to the principles of the Chicago plat
form
Government by injunction" was
touched upon; the cause of the strik-
ing coal miners of other states en-
dorsed, anG the administration of Gov
ernor Adams commended. The plat
form then says
we recognize in the bountiftM crops
of the country, and the failure of crops
in competing countries, q splendid ad-
vantage to our people by raising the
price Of farm products, but we deplore
famine in other lands, and desire
prosperity that does not depend upon
the adversely of the balance Of khe
world
Efforts were made to secure the en-
doFsement of the silver Republican can
didate. Judge Hayt and the Populist
candidate, Judge Gabbert, but the anti
fusionists triumphed. Only Judge Cab
bert's name was placed in competition
with that of Judge Gordon, with the
result above noted

the face of the tunnel. His right dates
from the location OF or the commence
ment OF work upon his tunnel, and is
con-ingent upon his prosecuting his work
With reasonable diligence. If a claim Is
located along the line of the tunnel the
surface locator has the right to all veins
iodes and lodges within the lines of his
location as against the tunnel owner TO

THE CUBAN COIN.
Head Of a New York Girl on the Sill
yer Dollar

The classic profile of Miss Leonora
Molina of New York City appears upon
the diverse of the silver dollar which
has been issued by the Provisional gov
eminent of Cuba. A preliminary issue
Of GOO, 600 coins has been made, and a
large number of them were placed in
circulation il New York City recently,
while shipments were made to Chicago,
ST. Louis. Cincinnati and New Orleans,
where Cuban patriotism runs high. The
entire issue was bespol<en before the
die WAS cast.
The design On the diverse is that of
the Goddess of Liberty, surrounded by
the motto, '-Patria Liberty country
and liberty. Miss Molina. from whose
classic beauty the goddess head was
modelled, is one Of the most striking
of the many beautiful women of New
York City. She is an ardent Cuban
enthusiast During the great fair
given in aid OF the Cuban patriots at
Madison Square Garden. Miss Molina
was a marked and distinguished
beauty in that galaxy Of ravishingly
fair women who made of that affair a
grand social and financial success. She
was on that occasion associated with
her sister, Miss Frances Molina, also
a woman of remarkab BILE beauty, such
one as Byron had in mind when ne
wrote:
She walks in beauty like the night
OF cloudless clfInes and starry skies,
And all that's best of dark ard bright
Meet IN her aspect and her eyes.
There we're hundreds of star-eyed
friends of Cuba who longed for she de-
lightful honor of grazing the first coin
of the fair republic for which they
have given their highest aspirations
and most devoted service
The Cuban dollars will be the ac-
cepted coin of the republic when
Cuban independence is achieved, and
further honors will attend this fair
daughter OF liberty.
