THE TICKET WILL STICK
Or ut Least that Part of it which is to
govern the town has Reconsidered
Their Destinations.

This paper is authorized to state
that the nominees of the citizens
meeting who resigned from the mu-
nicipal ticket have reconsidered
their destinations in so far as to
promise to serve if elected to the pc
sitions for which they were original
ly nominated. They did this after
a petition had been circulated and
had received nearly two hundred
signatures asking them to allow
them to be voted on.
The members of the school board
who declined at the same time still
refuse to go on and their places
will have to be filled by the voters
on election day. The indications
are that the ticket as named by the
mass meeting for town officers will
be elected without opposition and
that means that we will have a good
set Of officials for the coming year.
The ticket is as follows:
FOR MAYOR
w. E. GLASSCOCk
FOR RECODER
w. +. ARNETT
FOR COUNCIL
A. w. LORENTZ
JOS. MORELAND
E. SHISLER
f. A. HENNEN

esrrs 80 wil1lamsIa Denver.

George Fred Williams, the illustri-
Gus free silver, Boston democrat, was in
Denver last week where be was given
quite an ovation. In an anterview he
said: at is-gOod to be here where one
is not looked at askance and had no
one as they passed, shake their heads
with a pantOmime suggestive that he
has bats in the belfry,' as is the case
at home.
"Do you know there are people in
Boston who really think me crazy" he
remarked to Mr.. Talbot, and Mr. Tai
bot was quick to assure him it was far
from the case here, and that Colorado
people had a different opinion OF him.
There is a reign Of terror in Boston,
the people who are dependent on the
banks are afraid to discuss the silver
question lest they be found out"
Speaking on the subject OF the re-
turn OF prosperity he said:
"The boom, that wave Of prosperity,
consists Of the reduction Of wages. All
over New England there has been q re-
ductiOn Of wages in the cotton factor
les and in the shoe factories. One
thing that may be Of interest is that in
Lewiston, the home Of Dingley, the
author Of the tariff bill, the cotton fac
tories haTe reduced wages from 10 TO
tract ion over IL per cent. There is
an epidemic Of cuts.
The cause? The inevitable result
Of the fall in prices comes from the be-
lief that the country has accepted the
gold standard. The factories Of New
England have exceeded their capacity
because the people are not in a cOndi-
ton to purchase the goods and they
never can flourish unless by encOUr-
aging the west and the south. They
are piling up goods they cannot sell.
Labor has to bear the burden. I hate
to make capital out Of the miseries of
my fellow cOuutrymen, but what is
happening is the enevitable result Of
the policy the government has com
mitted the country to.
"The factory operatives have held
out for the tariff bill but they are find
ing out how it is working. I expect
absolutely nothing from the tariff bill
passed by the administration. The
cuts in wages have been IN the cotton
factories. The tariff bill has allowed
the wooden factories to raise their
prices Of their goods but they cannot
sell them and L expect that the oper-
atives in the wooden factories viii suf-
fer next. The only effect the boom so
much spoken Of has had is to reduce
prices through the reduction Of
WaR es.n

that the democrats, in council, prOPOs-
ed to the popuiists, in council, that
they would support the entire peoples
party ticket and ask no democrat put
on the ticket, provided that they. the
populists, would put q resubmission
plank in their platform. OF course
this is the province Of the state conven-
ton, and no one can pledge that body
beforehand. But it must be Temem-
bered that the resUbmissiOn Of Ques-
ton and the merits Of the ultimate
question, for a change in the state con-
stitution, are two entirely separate and
distinct matters. When even q minor
ity, representing q considerable num-
Der Of the voters Of the state, demand
the SUBMISSION OF a question for the
popular suffrage it should be so sub
mitted. Harrison, near the close Of
MS term, vetoed q bill passed unani-
mously by both branches Of congress
allowing a citizen to come into
court. The court of last resort is
the people. Shall the populist party
say that the case in question shall not
come into court? The peoples party
has always advocated the initiative and
referendum, and they cannot and will
not go back on this principle. Among
those interviewed in Topeka on the
subject was Rev. 81. B. Flehsrty who
said: 1T strikes me that it is q good
proposition. The pOpulists ought to
accept it. It would be carrying out
the principle Of the initiative and
referendum"
