COLORED DEMOCRATS.
The Walcott-McKinley Republicans
Had the Joker Up Their Sleeves.

Denver. Sept. 5.-The action of the
democratic state convention to be held
in this city in regard to the nomination
for justice of the supreme court is en-
tirely problematical. Some of the prom
inent workers of the democratic party
have been agitating for an Endorsement
of Judge Charles ID. Hoyt by the silver
republicans. A damper has been thrown
upon this proposition by the fact that
Judge Hoyt has not seen fit as yet to
decline the nomination of the Walcott-
Mckinley faction of the republican party.
The certificate of Judge Hoyt's nominal
ton by the Walcott republicans has been
already filed with the secretary of state
by the officers of the republican state
committee, this committee carrying cut
the plan of the Walcott managers. to get
first into the field with the nomination
of Hoyt and make it impossible for him
even if he so elects to Keep from being
a straight republican candidate for the
supreme bench in the coming campaign.
