artificial ~expension OF currency is to
pull, the linchplns from the wheels OF

on the race at full speed. The sudden
increase of prosperity Ia followed by
still greater decline, and the weight OF
SORROW must fall on the laborers who.

ing too great conceit of their own abili-

REPUBLICAN PLATFORM.

The republicans Of Wyoming, In con-
vention assembled, congratulate the
nation on its return to republican rule,
which furnishes a sure guarantee Of the
stability and prosperity Of all u in
stitutions and a comparison that gives
little hope of a return to power Of the
democratic party, the party Of decep-
ton and disappointment.
We reaffirm the declaration Of facts
and principles adopted by the eleventh
national republican convention at st.
Louis, July. II, 1896.
The financial policy of the republic
can party having brought prosperity
to the entire country, and given us a
place among the nations Of the earth
and enabled us to conduct successfully
a foreign war, we, therefore, .unhesi-
.atingly reafirm the financial plank Of
the platform al expressed by the ma
tional convention at st. Louis.
We congratulate the country upon
the fact that in response to the demand
Of the St. Louis platform, and the will
Of the people expressed at the polls in
1896, protection and reciprocity, twin
measures of republican policy, have
been re-established and have been en-
bodied In. by the enactment Of the
Dlngley bill. and we especially con-
graduate the people Of Wyoming upon
the enactment Of this law. which has
directly benefited our two great indus-
tries, viz: the raising of live stock and
the mining Of coal, by which both d.
rectly and Indirectly have brought
prosperity to every business within our
state.
We most cordially approve the ad-
ministration Of President Mckinley.
He has met the unusually grave and
dificult questions which have arisen
since bis incumbency Of the presiden-
tial once in a manner 80 wise and pa

STATE r E

C~oiorado's Appeal to Arms
The ~disgraceful appeal to arms in Or
der to settle faotional party disputes
in Colorado is just what might be ex-
pected under the circumstances. With
out entering into the merits Of the con-
troversy, which appears to be with that
wing of the party which is endeavoring
to prevent Colorado republicans from
going over to the populists, the bloody
battle for the possession of party ma
chinery is the natural sequence of a
condition which owes its existence to a
scared political conscience. Colorado
has been oblivious OF national interests
and has been totally absorbed in a self
ish contemplation of local interests
such as her people have advocated dur
ing the past four Or five years.
AT the door of the utterly selfish sill
yer movement may be laid the primary
causes of the trouble now giving Colo
RADIO unenviable notoriety. The narrow
view OF national interests which she
has cultivated; the forced debasement
of public opinion to the acceptance Of
the silver idea whether conscience, on
viction or intelligence has approved or
net; the vaunted unity in h silver
cause held together ny withes, whose
existence the hapless citizen dared not
acknowledge, much less oppose; all
these have so dulled the private con-
science that anarchy is almost ready
to seize the first opportunity and over
throw law and order among the people
Of the Centennial spate.
II this view of the situation is over
drawn or not warranted by the facts,
what does the killing OF Charles E.
Harris mean? In the heat of the great
struggle for Colorado's silver interests
her governor, only a few years ago,
openly and publicly expressed his de-
termination to enforce a recognition OF
C%olorado's paramount interests ii he
had 10 wade in human blood to his
people wondered IL Colorado had gone
daft. But Waite did not kill anybody
he simply made a fool OF Waite and,
in outside public opinion at least,
shamed Colorado. But Waite seems to
have been a truthful mouthpiece of the
majority in his state. His blatant
boasting and wild threats were vigor-
ously a%pplauded by the majority who
put him in Office. That same majority
which has now engaged in bloody bat
tie to secure the machinery of politics,
through its duly accredited delegates
has gone the pop governor one better
by actually killing a man and Gripping
several others in a fight for political
supremacy.
Here at our very doors Is an object
lesson in political morality which Wyo-
ming will do we'll to profit by. Let us
not invite universal condemnation and
suspicion and cover ourselves with
shame by giving further countenance
to Colorado's selfish schemes for state
ACKNOWLEDGMENT at the expense of ma
tional honor. When we follow Colo
RADIOS leadership we help fill her COT
fers from u wi and we get nothing
in exchange that is beneficial; quite the
contrary. Let us avoid the evils of dis
honest money and the suspicion OF re-
pudiatfon while we have the chance
