Pleased With Boulder.

AS an ideal convention town Boulder
just meets the requirements according to
the opinion of Chairman Charles A.
Smith who was in attendance at the first
district Democratic congressional con-
vention here yesterday. Of course this
refers more to the conventions such as
that yesterday, rather than to large state
gatherings which attract an attendance
of four and five thousand people. For
the latter. hotel accommodations are
lacking but for the former he knows Of
none better "The ride from Denver"
said he, "is shor. and enjoyable. The
rates are SO low that everyone can afford
to come. After arriving the surround.
ings are pleasant, the climate is fine.
There are several commodious halls
suitable for use and within easy distance
of the main center of town. l have been
here several times and have always been
struck with the suitableness of the town
tor such purpose, SO decided TO call the
congressional convention here" Mr..
Smith remained in Boulder last night
and returned to Denver this morning.

to reason and desires to gain the approval
of the civilized world.
In another telegram General Otis
states that the insurgents have acceded
to his commands and peacefully evacu.
ated the suburbs Of Manila. Yesterday
a congress was formed at Malolos, 20
