Political Horoscope.

Special to the Record.
DENVER, Sept. 6.-Since the re-
ports of coonty conventions have been
received the managers of the various
parties frankly admit that the state
conventions at Colorado Springs rexl
Thursday will witness some Of lie
most brilliant political pyrotechnics
ever beheld in a nominating cunvt n
tion. Many of the Silver Republican
delegations positively assert that fu-
sion is absolutely impossible unless
their party is given the head of the
ticket. The Demccra ic managers
are equally frank and emphatic in
stating that under no circumstances
will such q concession be made to the
Silver Republicans. Senator Teller
keenly feels the great weight of re-
sponsibility he has voluntarily taken
upon himself and his looks clearly in
dictate the worry it is causing him.
He admits that the present crisis is a
critical one, and that supreme ef-
fort is necessary to save his party
from disruption and oblivion. The
leaders in his paTesy; express them
selves as tired Of waiting for the
Democrats to appease their natur-
q political gluttcny. It Is also posi-
tively asserted that the Silver Repub-
lcans will bolt the convention NO INST
ter which Of the other parties controls.

CHICAGO, Sept. 6. Tens of thou
sands of people gathered at Washing
ton Park race track yesterday to cele-
brate the Labor Day carnival. Among
the big events of the day was horse

side of the program was so arranged
as to give an opportunity for the
long desired outburst Of enthusiasm
in Chicago over the glorious results
Of the late war. Many of the naval
and military heroes who have return
cd from Cuba and Porto Rico were
present. The object Of the carnival
was to provide funds to be distributed
