the polls by the soldiery, in an attempt
to compel them to vote, and some went
of their W accord, impelled by policy,
but, as I afterward discovered, every
one of these Cubans was loyal to his
convictions, and deposited a blank
ballot. This vas admitted by the dis

vote in Cervantes stood three to one
in favor of the autonomy plan.
Another town ten miles from Cervantes
had some 200 qualified voters. AS it
was not ON the railway there were not
sufficient soldiers there to intimidate
the voters, and force them to the polls,
SO not a single voter appeared. Yet it
was officially reported that this town

Realizing that if Charlie Thomas

ed this fall, the real ruler of Colora-
do would be his silent partner, Tom
Patterson, the Chieftain well says:
mo worse calamity could befall
Colorado than to have such man as
Mr.. Patterson at the helm. He and
his paper have done the state more
harm by their constant and foolish
calamity bowling than the financial
panic Of 1898, than the repeal of the
Sherman act and all the other list of
things unfortunate that have come
to Colorado during the past five
years, but from which the state will
recover, as it is now recovering, if
the day of the demagog and of the
calamity howler be but put to an end.
And Of demagogs Mr.. Patterson is
easily first. A man of brilliant mind,
but unscrupulous. Mr.. Patterson has

COUNTY OFFICES.

There are not many county ofaces
to be filed at the coming election,
yet the few that are to te supplied
are Of the very greatest Importance.
ANY man with a good deputy can fll
most of the Offices of q county, but
for a commissioner it requires man
Of good business Judgment and a
knowledge of county affairs. Such a
man is Albert Philip. He is receiv-
ing not only the support of the Re-
publicans and Silver Republicans in
his race but many of the more sub
stantial Democrats and Populists Of
the county will vote for Mr.. Philip
because they realize that better
commissioner cannot be found.
The county judgeship is another
office which cannot be operated by a
deputy. This place requires man
with knowledge of law and a high
sense Of honor and Justice. During
his three years service in this capac-
ity Jas. L. Cooper has proved that he
is Judge Of more than usual ability
and honesty. No one has aught to
say against the fair record he has
made, and large indeed will his vote

spirits who have by their push and
energy built the great city Of Denver
and who are more or less interested
in the great enterprises which sre
building up the state and developing
its many and varied resources. They
know that Henry Wolcott is the man
who for thirty years or more has been
at the head Of more enterprises for
the building up and development Of
Colorado than any other one man who
can be named. The Colorado Fuel 4
Iron Company, the Boston and Equita-

name. They know that his election

Every event of the campaign seems
