Notwithstanding the fact that

of the election, however, were very

sition, and this morning it is not
difficult to know at a glance how

The losing party, however, seem
to take their defeat philosophic-
ally, and bow to the viii of the

morning, that since the majority

SENATOR WOLCOTT
At CANON CITY
Discusses the Political Issues to
Large Audience
MUCH ENTHUSIASM SHOWN

The special train that left Flor
encce last mig. at 7:l5 carried q
large number of local Wolcott
admirers to Canon City, to hear
the senator speak.
The opera house was crowded to
its utmost capacity, and the rounds
of applause which greeted the
speaker, showed that his hearers
were in sympathy with the senti-
ments which he voiced.
Henry Wolcott, candidate for
governor, was first introduced. He
declared that he never posed as a
public speaker, saying, "Any record
which / may have made, was rep
resented by words and not by
acts" His few words elected a
round of applause.
Senator E. O. Wolcott, who was
next introduced, was received
with the widest enthusiasm.
He denounced the yellow
journals" of Denver, but said that
personally he cared no more for
their attacks than he does for the
wind that blows. He said that
during the ten years he had been
in the senate he had never cast q
single vote that he would not cast
the same way now under the sane
circumstances.
Mr.. Wolcott told the story of
the Broad convention, and the
struggle for the dove emblem; and
in connection scored Senator
Teller. He declared that the hope
of bimetalism rests only in the re-
publican party, and that he firm
ly believes its day is not far dis
tant.
After discussing Mr.. Thomas
several platforms of the past, and
reviewing the financial history of
the country, Mr.. Wolcott ended
by paying a glowing tribute to the
young men of the nation, appeal
ing to them to cast their lots with
the party that had made the
eouattr y shl hat It IS, and had kelsd
up the arms of the administration
through a struggle glorious and
unique in the history of nations.
