Pacific Northwest" We fancy that there
will be uproarious objection on the part Of
Portland 10 an important feature Of this

The story that either Senator WoIcott or

in the ina ginative brain OF some sensa-
tionaIIst. It Is not easy TO see why VOL
colt should tender his resignation as sem

friendly to silver. How can Wolcott's re-
election ard consequent Endorsement of his
course by the Colorado legislature have
the slightest effect on the relations OF Nc
hinley and Gage? The whole world knows
where The Colorado legislature stands. 1t
is entirely hostile to Mckinley and the
gold standard. and It was the original dis
coverer OF the malign influence OF the

administrations. Colorado has not been
